Myrick retracts al Qaeda claim

Last week, North Carolina Rep. Sue Myrick made a shocking aside when speaking about a bill she sponsored: "Al-Qaida ops busted at Mexican border?" Needless to say, none of the reporters there at the time followed up.

Now, comes this:

Trouble is, Myrick's claim -- that three al-Qaida members were recently arrested near the Mexican border -- isn't true.

"An honest mistake," Myrick spokesman Andy Polk said later.

And the accuracy of what [Rep. Patrick McHenry] said -- that some of the 9-11 terrorists had N.C. driver's licenses -- is questionable. There's no proof that any of the hijackers did; the man who masterminded the attacks might have -- 20 years ago...

It's things like this that just give ammo to those on the other side.

The fact is all this looks just like a good old CIA Cover-up for political Reasons.
soon the boys and girls will be calling for mexico and this so called country to Unite Under one Political System, i.e. "COURT SYSTEM AND TAX SYSTEM", Sounds nut's right but just stop and look at what the system oligarchies have done over the last 15 years, you will see some people die or be disappeared soon, just stop and think how many have been put in prison and how many just died over the last 5 years? watch out for what comes next.
