OpenGov - Open Government Brainstorm

I agree. The insider trading story should be front page of the New York Times. It was not event mentioned in the 911 commission. There are at least 5 people on the 911 commission who say the commission process was a total whitewash. Philip Zelikow, a Bush insider, contolled the entire investigation. WTC 7 was not mentioned in the commission either. What a joke.

Great idea!

Voted for your idea but it has already been put up. Unfortunately, this first level software does not permit easy aggregation, linkages, clustering, etc. I have reviewed most of the books and DVDs on 9-11 at Amazon and absolutely agree that it was a whitewash and needs to be properly investigated. I hope Dick Cheney does not die of natural causes before he can be brought to justice.

Can't they just release the information and let independent investigators handle this? I would trust them much more and we get the results for free.

For unbiased information take a look at the information collected by Robert Martin who was the EPA National Ombudsman and held a number of hearings to assess the environmental aftermath. Search "Robert Martin Twin Towers". The Ombudsman function was eliminated while Robert was conducting these hearings. 24 armed EPA officers went to his office in Washington while he was in New York holding hearings and seized his computers, files and official reports which were then classified secret by the Bush administration. The US Senate then voted twice unanimously to reinstate Robert. The White House said NO. Twice.

Robert is a Native American who cares deeply about our country.

this is a MUST. that the worst terrorist attack on US soil has never been fully or properly investigated is an absolute scandal.

As usual, vote totals are manipulated on this site, or this would be the most popular item.

As usual? Hasn't this only been open for a week? How do you establish precedent with only that?

Please note that Rosander replied to my comment in TWO MINUTES. Why would that be? Monitoring? anyway... Yes, as usual—- the last time they did this kind of website (change.gov, or whatever it was called), as soon as 9/11 truth got at or near the top of the list, it would be deleted. Since you're paying such close attention, you should know that.

I'm monitoring comments through my e-mail. Maybe I'll get this one even faster.

Robert said "Voted for your idea but it has already been put up" -- I was looking for another suggestion on the topic, but couldn't find it. What search should I use?

Part of Openness needs to include true investigation of the kinds of things that lead to government mistrust. There are still too many unanswered questions about 9/11.

Anyone who thinks the desire for 9/11 truth is limited to left-wing loonies needs to visit http://www.patriotsquestion911.com/

It will be difficult to get the word out until the majority understand

And even then there will be resistance. Every adult citizen of the US is guilty of conspiracy after the fact. Where is the line between me and Cheney?
