Judge John Walker, George Walker Bush's cousin, judges April Gallop's suit
http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=201581

Background: Army Specialist April Gallop, was in the wing of the Pentagon that was hit on 9/11, with her small boy, and injured in the rubble. She was instructed by her commanding officers to speak the Official Story, but bravely spoke her true observations. In 2008, she sued Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Myers for not evacuating the Pentagon, when they knew it was a potential target. Her case was dismissed on March 15, 2010, but appealed that decision.

Status: On April 5, 2011 the appeal of the case of Gallop v. Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Myers was heard by the United States Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit at 11 a.m. at New Haven, Connecticut. But one of the 3 judges turned out to be George Walker Bush's cousin, Judge John M. Walker Jr., an obvious conflict of interest.

7. Issues:
http://911blogger.com/news/2011-04-06/judge-john-walker-george-walker-bushs-cousin-judges-april-gallops-suit

Judge Walker was chosen to be a judge for a case involving his cousin.
He did not recuse himself from a case with an obvious conflict of interest.
He sat there, all the while knowing he is a cousin, heard William Veale's objection to his being a potential relative, said nothing to about it, and just denied the objection.
Judge John M. Walker Jr. is now judging the appeal of a case involving the administration of his cousin George Walker Bush.

9. The government explanation for 911 was absurd.
So is the pitiable defense of said explanation.

11. "The government explanation for 911 was absurd."
Especially that part about hijackers flying planes into the WTC, Pentagon, and a PA field.
You are a riot.

12. Look who is missing from the suit
"Gallop v. Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Myers"

Oh that's right, Dubya.

Also, I found the description of April Gallop rather amusing. Especially the bit about how she was "ordered to toe the line" - did that order involve forcing her to sue American Airlines for damages & distress, and subsequently accepting a million dollar settlement? :eyes:
