Unless a coverup was in place. Why do you supposed we don't get the
direct feed from the Hubble? What is there to HIDE? Why do you suppose
the Bush Administration wants consolidation under NASA? Central
control? A single gateway, beyond the icy fingers of control that
already exist? Do NASA employees take a National Security oath, and why
is that necessary? Why do you suppose the Hubble was outfitted recently
with additional infrared capability? Why is the Pope owning/renting an
observatory in Arizona, and peeking southward toward Orion?
Do you believe everything you're TOLD? Kennedy et al were killed and
injured by a single bullet, that turned at right angles, broke bone, and
came out intact? George Bush Sr., formerly head of the CIA, was out of
the loop during Iran Contra? The White House had no interest in Enron,
and did it no favors? Global Warming is causing the increase in
volcanic activity, more than at any time in the memory of man? Global
Warming is the cause of the current weather irregularities and storm
damage and crop failures but the US corporate interests can continue
unabated?
