John Oliver has been hitting it out of the ball park.

I can only point out two inconsistencies with the video. 1. The video treats the metal properties individually. For example, the video indicates that the beam would sag as it got warmer and lost its structural strength. That statement is true for a simply supported beam. However, the building was designed with a composite floor [...]

The NIST report does not indicate a chemical analysis for explosives. However, explosives leave more than a chemical trace. They leave blast patterns, sound and shock waves, etc. The report does indicate that there was no evidence of a sound pattern (i.e. the sound level of 130 db) to indicate explosives.

I agree that anyone watching the video (without doing further research) is likely to agree that something is wrong. But, I read the NIST report. The report said that the building, (unlike most buildings) was built over a very large electrical substation. Since the substation foundation walls did not match the building columns, a series [...]

I was hoping to avoid WTC 7. I have issues with the DRAFT account (and truth be told, I thought is was full of shit). As a result of your query, I read the FINAL report. The DRAFT account did not have the top of the line professionals as they all worked on WTC1/2. Many [...]

I watched your video for a good laugh. After laughing I thought I wonder if these idiots realized how much they embarrassed themselves. In one part of the interview, they interviewed my former professor, Dr. Jonathan Barnett. In that interview, they cut off half of what he said. I know this, because the full interview [...]

Another issue not discussed wrt spying is the value of human life. The US is spending billions of dollars to prevent a few hundred terrorism deaths a year but will not spend one hundred dollars to track the federal fire arm dealers who sell guns to criminals, gangs and drug lords (who kill ten thousand [...]

As a licensed fire protection engineer who knew many of the investigators professionally and personally, I can attest that their report on the failures of WTC1 and 2 are consistent with fire protection engineering principles. I have read/viewed many of the conspiracy theories about the collapse of the buildings and found them to be ignorant [...]

Bobster33 commented on the blog post Supreme Court Needs to Realize Technology Has Advanced Since the 70′s
Many private sector companies have mandatory retirement, the courts should too. I remember the courts were reviewing a privacy case related to pagers and one justice said that they had never heard of the device. So 30 years after the technology became widespread, the Justices got around to making a court decision about the technology.

#4, Make the issue about personality and human weakness. E.g. 1. Affordable care act is Obamacare. If you hate Obama, then you should hate Obamacare. 2. MLK was a serial philanderer. Therefore none of his ideas can have any merit.

Bobster33 commented on the blog post Interview with Jeremy Scahill on ‘Dirty Wars’ Production, War on the Press & Bradley Manning’s Trial
I am asking the same question that Jay Leno is asking, Why is Jeremy Scahill still alive? I am reminded of the fate of Scott Ritter, who as a weapons inspector fell out of favor with the Bushes. When Scott said that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction, it was only a matter of time before he was unemployed, suffering from health problems and accused of soliciting minors for sex.

Bobster33 commented on the diary post Fracking “Shock Doctrine” Unveiled as 2013 Illinois Legislative Session Nears End by Steve Horn.
In California, there was a protest at the governor’s offices in Los Angeles. My wife and I went down. Upon leaving, we were brain storming on increasing the effectiveness of the protest. Political theater was the answer. What we came with is the need to give legislators bottles of water from contaminated wells. The bottles [...]

When I worked for the Orange County Fire Authority in California, we learned about a wheel manufacturer that was pouring their waste into the storm drains. The County to its credit busted their asses. Why this has not happened here, I do not know.

Bobster33 commented on the diary post President Obama vs. his administration’s legacy by Shahid Buttar.
WRT legacy, Obama will be judged with the same criteria that Dick Morris used on Clinton in the 1990′s. Obama will be viewed as on the top rung of the bottom tier of president.

Bobster33 commented on the blog post Did Attorney General Eric Holder Lie To Congress Under Oath?
I agree with what you said. I want Holder gone for all of the reasons listed on the HuffPo: easy on banks, easy on Wall Street, tough on Occupy, crappy on the espionage act, etc.
At this point, Obama needs a focal point to absorb the blame directed at Obama.

Holder has never prosecuted the press for disclosure of material. He has only THREATENED to prosecute. Therefore, Holder is technically not lying.

Media Matters need the progressives to hold them to account. Things changed in the Nixon White house when enough Republicans chose values over party loyalty.
