Jul 2013

because you were shown to be clueless about the accident scene, but maintained your errors enough to add because you were so convinced you were right.

Go ahead and show me where I have conveniently tailored facts.
And get writing on your paper. I want to know my posts in this thread that are red herrings and straw men!

By the way, I forgot to add this latest bullshit to your bullshit list --"There are other versions that say he turned on Melrose and that is where his car burned up"

What a surprise! Always there to believe any conspiracy theory. zappaman Jul 2013 #62

You mean, ''apart from Richard Clarke,'' who would know about such things, like 9-11. Octafish Jul 2013 #68

Where in the video does it say there is evidence that Hasting's crash was not an accident? zappaman Jul 2013 #69

It's a short video. Octafish Jul 2013 #78

Interesting theory. kentuck Jul 2013 #3

What I thought was interesting was that Clarke, a Repug tool usually, said he Cleita Jul 2013 #5

I don't believe Clarke was a ReThug tool. I trust him explicitly. Auntie Bush Jul 2013 #27

I dunno working for Reagan and the Bushes maybe. Cleita Jul 2013 #52

He's the farthest thing from a "tool" of any kind imaginable. Schema Thing Jul 2013 #133

Clark is far from a rethug tool. BobbyBoring Jul 2013 #140

I guess I should. I have a habit of not believing anyone who had anything to do with Cleita Jul 2013 #143

... "I believe the FBI when they say they weren't investigating him," said Clarke ... struggle4progress Jul 2013 #6

Do you think he was saying that it's unlikely that they weren't investigating him Cleita Jul 2013 #7

Or mebbe it's code for "Sasquatch had him whacked cuz he was havin an affair with Loch Ness Nellie" struggle4progress Jul 2013 #15

So it is your opinion whoever regards something as crazy is immediately discredited thereby? struggle4progress Jul 2013 #73

That is not what I said. zeemike Jul 2013 #79

So why do you work so hard to defend the credibility... TheMadMonk Jul 2013 #129

JFC it's been posted like 10 times now. Who HASN'T seen that BS by now? nt DevonRex Jul 2013 #8

Maybe it hasn't been posted enough. Cleita Jul 2013 #9

Whatever. At least you admitted you're posting it after it's been done over and over again. DevonRex Jul 2013 #12

Not as difficult as you suggest. SamReynolds Jul 2013 #149

Has any information been released ohheckyeah Jul 2013 #10

None that I can find. Maybe the investigation has a gag order issued, but it Cleita Jul 2013 #11

One would think some enterprising ohheckyeah Jul 2013 #13

Maybe they are scared considering what happened. Cleita Jul 2013 #18

Really can't much blame them for being scared, I guess. ohheckyeah Jul 2013 #39

Let's not assume, for those who are, that it is the government's nasty work here Whisp Jul 2013 #14

I'm not really blaming government. It could be private enterprises with the ability Cleita Jul 2013 #20

Yah. Wrong kind of accident aquart Jul 2013 #29

Drive a stick shift. NutmegYankee Jul 2013 #25

I drove a stick about half my driving life. I also had roll up windows and no air conditioning. Cleita Jul 2013 #26

Everything else can be electric, but you'll always have control over the engine with stick shift. NutmegYankee Jul 2013 #28

Even an automatic can be shifted to neutral. HooptieWagon Jul 2013 #30

I agree. NutmegYankee Jul 2013 #40

Thank you, octoberlib! Octafish Jul 2013 #91

He might have been mistaken about the FBI investigating him. JDPriestly Jul 2013 #44

I'm not. I'm thinking he knows a lot more than he has said and is putting out some crumbs Cleita Jul 2013 #49

Have you read the article in the NYT about Ernest Hemingway and the FBI? octoberlib Jul 2013 #60

I respect Clarke. H2O Man Jul 2013 #48

It does, but then again fear is exactly what intelligence agencies, and the MIC want Taverner Jul 2013 #64

I don't disagree with you. We were discussing stuff like this since Cleita Jul 2013 #66

I tend to rule out conspiracy theories because the more people involved, the more chance of error Taverner Jul 2013 #72

Whatever - it's frightening n/t malaise Jul 2013 #71

I think it was Elvis who did the hacking. George II Jul 2013 #53

I saw this, and wound up discussing it on Huffpost. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #55

The coroner has verified that the body is Hastings. Cleita Jul 2013 #56

You do realize there are witnesses who saw the car flying down the street? zappaman Jul 2013 #58

There is also testimony from his friend that he drove like a grandma. Cleita Jul 2013 #63

Really? zappaman Jul 2013 #67

I doubt if it was 100 miles an hour or even 80 or 60. That would be impossible to do on a street Cleita Jul 2013 #74

You doubt that? zappaman Jul 2013 #76

Neither do you. The video does not clearly show the speed the car was going. Cleita Jul 2013 #80

Witnesses "WHO"???? - Even "IF" the car did run a Red-light and was "flying down the street"; such laserhaas Jul 2013 #85

*sigh* zappaman Jul 2013 #87

And he timed it at a hundred miles an hour. Sure he did. Cleita Jul 2013 #89

That is what I'm saying ---- tomatoe - tomahto laserhaas Jul 2013 #94

Do you "really" believe (in this day & age) that we can unequivocally "trust" a Coroner's report laserhaas Jul 2013 #86

Putting it that way we probably can't trust anything. However, it seems sensible to Cleita Jul 2013 #88

Yes, the trees are so sparse on that street zappaman Jul 2013 #57

There is maybe one tree every other block. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #92

Bullshit. zappaman Jul 2013 #107

So I looked at the street view on Google maps of Melrose of the accident site as Cleita Jul 2013 #113

I did when I drove those 9 blocks this morning. zappaman Jul 2013 #114

Actually doing Google street view when you drive east that seems to be the case. n/t Cleita Jul 2013 #115

Highland does not go east. n/t zappaman Jul 2013 #116

Who cares what direction. I don't. We were actually discussing whether Cleita Jul 2013 #117

You seem lost. zappaman Jul 2013 #118

I was not discussing Highland at all. No one is. Cleita Jul 2013 #119

He hit a tree on Highland. zappaman Jul 2013 #120

And this is important to you why? Cleita Jul 2013 #121

It's important to have facts. zappaman Jul 2013 #122

Yes, because you are always so factual yourself. Cleita Jul 2013 #123

Now you engage in personal attacks zappaman Jul 2013 #124

I haven't attacked you at all. I just pointed out a fact about your posts and reasons for Cleita Jul 2013 #125

LOL! zappaman Jul 2013 #126

Well, I'm happy you are so amused. Cleita Jul 2013 #127

Agreed, zappaman Jul 2013 #128

I was being facetious because of the inability for people to acknowledge something. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #137

No problem. zappaman Jul 2013 #144

They aren't 10 feet apart! SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #136

Okay, so do I, and quite honestly the spacing of the trees is not important when discussing Cleita Jul 2013 #138

I think that the various agencies that claim to have our security in mind are doing far more harm SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2013 #141

I agree. We need to get Barbara Boxer on this too. She will probably try to do something Cleita Jul 2013 #142
