The information the CIA & US Department of State ignored that could have prevented the 9/11 terrorist attacks on NYC.

We both drove to Washington DC together to meet with Republican Senator, Tim Nicholson. Darko spent the night at his house and I in a hotel room on the Beltway. We had brought with us tons of secret information on Al Qaeda operatives with us for this visit but Darko left it all with me in my room and Senator Nicholson did not view it.

President Obama Too Weak & Ignorant To Quit Smoking, Can He really Lead the USA?28 2009

The question comes immediately to mind whether, President Obama, possesses the intelligence, strength and human willpower to lead the most powerful democratic country in the world if he allows himself to be physically and emotionally dragged round by “tar & nicotine.” The question goes deeper. How powerful and potent a leader a President can Obama truly be if too weak to quit the smoking habit.
