So mikey, can you explain what the point is of demolishing a building that is going to have an airplane smash into it? Was MacGyver going to show up and fix 'em with some duct tape and 2 X 4s?
GWB Jr: "I dunno Dick, we're gonna crash them planes into the WTC and do some awesome damage, but what if they get repaired after?"
Cheney: "Yeeeesssss.... I see your point. The kinetic force of a 200 ton airplane full of fuel smashing into a skyscraper at full speed will probably do nothing more than shatter a few windows. What if we... say... BLOWED THEM UP at the same time? MWHAHAHAHA!!"
GWB Jr: "Gosh Dick, that's a great idea! After all, we won't be able to proclaim a world-wide war on terror unless the buildings are completely destroyed! No one will fall for attacking the Arabs if we just kill a few hundred airline passengers and a dozen floors full of office workers, plus maybe some firemen and cops and anyone hit by debris and maybe some more people that jump out of the towers in panic and of course you can't forget the possiblility of the tower falling on top of another building and killing some people that way too but - "
Cheney: "George, George. Remember the BLUE pills are for the afternoon, not the red ones. Just let me handle this - nobody will suspect a thing, and if they do, we'll discredit their ideas by only allowing them to be published on the Internet. Nobody believes anything they see there."
