i don't BELIEVE it was a conspiracy. i KNOW for a FACT it was. I knew it the morning of 9-11 it was an inside job. the evidence overwhelmingly suggest it was. Look @ the movies Zeitgeist and Loose Change, forget that Farenheit 9-11 crap. Those documentaries tell the real story. Bush even lied abOUt when he fOUnd OUt abOUt the attack. He said that he SAW the 1st plane hit the tower BEFORE he went into the classroom! how can that be when the video of the 1st plane hittin the tower wasn't released until Sept 12? They set it up dude. That's why bush and cheney refused to testify under oath before the 9-11 Commission. they didnt allow video, transcript or notes of their testimony, so for all we know they never even testified. The truth is OUt there buddy. All jokin aside. Just watch them flicks and let me know if its all BS then if u still believe what yOU believe then there's nothing more i can do or say. People are free to believe what they want. Don't get me wrong i don't hate america, just the people in charge of it and runnin it. We are controlled by the federal reserve and the irs. those are private companies!

OK. You are right about "wake up and smell the corn". Yes, that is all we have here. However, I am beginning to think you are just messing with me. Do you really believe there is a conspiracy???? Please tell me you don't believe that.

we were NOT really attacked by foreigners!

and the reason we haven't been attacked since 9-11 is because we were really attacked by foreign terrorist on 9-11. any1 and every1 with half a brain can see that Bush and his criminal gang attacked us. It was an inside job! They were so sloppy last time that they knew they cOUldn't do it again. There's a mOUntain of evidence showin the truth that yOU choose to neglect. If bush and cheney were so innocent why did they refuse to testify individually and under oath before the 9-11 commission? Why Jim? Was it so they cOUld get their lies straight? Please explain, cuz I'm hella puzzled by that?

yOU know this cOUntry is backwards when lies become truth and truth becomes a conspiracy theory, even when OVERWHELMING evidence points to the latter. I pray yOU wake up and see the truth JIM.

yOU this cOUntry is backwards when lies become truth and truth becomes a conspiracy theory, even when OVERWHELMING evidence points to the latter. I pray yOU wake up and see the truth JIM.

I don't get my facts from CNN. I can tell know too little to even have an intelligent debate so I will end by sayin, if America is the best place to live, I sure cOUldnt tell by the last survey that was just released of the best cities in the world in which to live. Honolulu was #28 and that was the highest U.S. city. NYC & L.A weren't in the top 50. All I gotta say is thanks to yOUr beloved international criminals bush, cheney and the rest of the neocon gang, america is goin down the tubes. but i guess it's hard to get too much real info in the cornfields of iowa. And the point i was makin abOUt wrongfully invading Iraq was that bush never wanted to capture his business partner's son (bin laden). Bin Laden was not responsible for 9-11. Look @ his FBI profile, He's never been formally charged! It was an inside job. Wake up and smell the corn.

No, I had not looked you up on the internet. I didn't realize that is what I should do. I guess in your self-absorbed, narcissistic life, you would think that I would care about who you are. I googled "assclown", but all I got was a 7-11 working conspiracy theorist. Not only are you delusional, you are a conspiracy theorist. Nice! Have I heard of NORAD, yes. Was Dick Cheney in charge of NORAD on 9-11, No. If you would like me to explain the chain of command in NORAD, I will. Was he making the decisions, No. If you would like footnotes for reference, I will include them next time to help you out with your so-called facts. Yes, I watch Fox news, as well as many other channels, including your beloved CNN. Come up with a different argument every time you disagree with someone ("You must watch Fox news"). I beg you to find a more liberal person that Alan Colmes (who is on Fox news), other than George Saros, who donates millions upon millions to your friends on the left. When did George Bush say that the war in Iraq was to find Bin Laden???? By the way, we are still there for national security reasons. I guess I missed all the terrorist attacks on the US since 9-11. If you feel we are not a nation, which by the way is the greatest nation on the face of God's earth, why do you live here? With your 400k a year CEO job, move. I am sure there is something similar to 7-11 in Europe or the middle east.

And for the last time, Capel NEVER told is players who to vote for! He just said VOTE! David Boren said he was voting for Obama and NOONE jumped up and said he's makin everyone associated with the Univ. of Oklahoma vote for Obama.

wow, spoken like a true Fox News watcher! Jim, yOU gave no facts what so ever! The war based on lies, is the one we are fighting. Bush has given 10 different reasons to invade Iraq and none included finding bin Laden, who is supposed to be the most dangerOUs man in the world, but never has been formally charged for 9-11, due to a sufficient lack of evidence! so yOU are still living under the lie that 'savage ragheads' livin in mud huts and caves pulled off the greatest terrorist attack in US history. The FBI has not released one tape showin any of the 19 so-called hi-jackers (who were supposed to be on their hot sheet of suspected terrorists) boarding any of the 4 planes. They also didn't have any arabic names on the flight manifest. 6 of the so-called terrorist have been fOUnd to be alive. The Pentagon has over 150 cameras (and surface to air missles) OUtside and arOUnd it. The FBI has not released 1 clip showing what hit the Pentagon. There was no plane wreckage, bodies,luggage or black box recovered @ the Pentagon. We were told the plane incinerated due to the impact and the heat, yeah ok.
Have yOU ever heard of North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) Jim? That's supposed to be OUr defense against hijacked planes and things of that nature. They intercept planes flyin off cOUrse more than 10 min with no response from the cockpit. Prior to the morning of 9-11 NORAD had successfully intercepted 70+ planes withOUt incident flyin off cOUrse in less than 15 min since the program began. yOU know who was in charge of runnin NORAD on the morning of 9-11, Jim? Dick Cheney. How is it that many hijacked planes were allowed to fly arOUnd the cOUntry, some for over an hOUr with no air force fighters liftin a finger til it was too late?
The twin towers (and building 7) were destroyed by controlled demolitions. Listen to the engineers that built the twin towers Jim. They said that the buildings were designed to withstand multiple hits from a 707 (which were the biggest commercials planes in existence when the towers were finished in 1973). No plane ever hit building 7, so how did it buckle and fall like the other 2 towers Jim? Listen to first hand eye witness accOUnts (cops, fire fighters, civilians and even Fox News reporters) speak of explosions in the basement of the towers, prior to the buildings falling. Look @ the video yOUrself and yOU will see the detonations as the buildings were falling, Jim. No wonder bush and cheney refused to testify under oath before the 9-11 Commission (which took a year and half before they even formed it), Very strange in deed.
I see speakin to someone of yOUr intellect is like talking to an infant. yOU can't come with solid facts, so yOU resort to name calling and ignoring truth and facts! I'm sure by now yOU have googled me and seen my pics of me doin my thing all over the world and wonder how this guy does all these things on a '7-11' salary? Anyway, Jim I really pray that yOU wake up to realization that the Bush cartel (rockerfellers. rothchilds, morgans,etc) is the most dangerOUs grOUp of people in world. America is not a nation, Jim. It is a corporation run by an international banking cartel that controls every facet of government and in essence OUr lives. Its obviOUsly yOU know very little other than what Fox has told yOU so it's pointless to waste such vast amOUnts of wisdom on someone too blind to see the truth. The fact that yOU ask me things like how Bush is linked to Hitler and the cOUntless other ignorant questions and remarks yOU have made lets me know that yOU know very little OUtside of the controlled information yOU receive from the so-called liberal media, so I won't waste anymore of yOUr time. I just hope yOU truly educate yOUrself 1 day, because to me and everyone that has read yOUr posts yOU seem like an idiot that knows very little abOUt what's really going on here in america or abroad.

Jihad, it is people like me who make it possible to tolerate people such as yourself. Our brave soldiers are VOLUNTEERS, like they have been for 200+ years. What war is based on lies??? We disposed of a despotic (I am sure you don't know that term, look it up in the amount of time you have available, since you don't have a job, but pretend to be a CEO who makes 400k a year) dictator that used weapons of mass destruction in the past on his own people and have created a democracy. It is in it's infancy stage, but still a democracy. I guess that is a bad thing according to you. Please show me even 5% of the military that think we are doing a bad thing over there and I will shut the heck up. You and your liberal, leftist, socialist friends always cry that we will risk the lives of BRAVE, HEROIC soldiers only when absolute necessary. When is that??? For 5 days after the savages fly planes into big buildings and kill thousand of innocent lives? You want action then, and change your mind after you have mourned for 5 days. Then we should shut up and color? Then you blame ourselves for our policies and say we brought it upon ourselves. I have never linked b. Hussein obama to muslim extremists. I just think he coddles and is an appeaser to them. Hence, he gives them legitimacy. There is a huge difference in comparing obama's call to talk with SAVAGE RAGHEADS that live in mudhuts to the greatest president of all time, Ronald Reagan's call to talk to the leader of the ussr. Reagan said "peace through strength" and approached it that way with the ussr. He did not compromise the USA, and made it clear that there was no diplomacy, it was stop your nuclear buildup because we have star wars and you will lose. The socialist republic had no answer and caved. Why am I even wasting my time responding to you? Crawl under the rock you came from. You are not a CEO and probably work at 7-eleven. I had a problem with Capel basically telling his players to vote for b. Hussein obama, because in his words, it was a monumental event that a black person was running for president. Sure, he said something about pick who they feel is the best candidate, after saying how great it is that a black person is this close to the presidency. That is like saying "No offense, but you are ugly". If you say something offensive after saying "no offense", it doesn't make it less offensive. He is trying to get his players to vote his way. That I have a problem with. War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest thing. The person that feels there is nothing worth fighting for, and is only made free by better, braver, smarter people is worse. He is only kept free by better,braver, men. How again is Bush a Nazi??????????? Please enlighten me on his Homeland Security Speech. How is that similar to Hitler invading Poland, which was given to him on a silver platter by Neville Chamberlain??? Thank God for Winston Churchill!!!! I think Churchill summed it up when he later said " If you are a conservative at 20, you have no heart". "If you are a liberal at 40, you have no brain." You have grown tiresome and boring. You are welcome for your freedom to sit and judge, instead of having to stand a post and be somebody.

well Jim.................????

show me where my facts are wrong Jim. so according to yOU Jim, we show OUr brave soldiers that we care for them by having them killed and mamed, fighting in wars based on lies? I thOUght if we really cared for them we wOUldn't send them into harm's way under false pretenses and we'd only ask them to risk their lives when ONLY absolutely necessary. And why do yOU insist on linkin Obama to muslim extremist? the only thing Obama has in commom with them is his name, Unlike ya beloved george bush! He and his family have been in bed with the bin ladens, sadaam hussein and many other of OUr so-called enemy since the 70's Jim. Bush is a Nazi, Jim. They follow the same doctrine. Listen to Bush's speech on Homeland Security. Its the exact same speech as Hitler's Gestapo speech. The same proganda Hitler gave to justify pre-emptive striking Poland is the same lies Bush used to illegaly invade Iraq. How are we appeasing OUr enemies by talking to them? I remember when the Soviet Union was OUr sworn enemy and now yall call Reagan a hero for ending the Cold War, Jim. and if I recall, it was yOUr great state of Iowa that was the 1st to endorse Obama, Jim. And no people of color don't have the same oppurtunity yet Jim or the fact that someone that looks like Obama being this close to being President wOUld not be such a significant event. If people of color have the same oppurtunity Jim, why is there such a disparity in coaches Jim? why is there only 2 black AD's at division 1 schools Jim? Tell me Jim. And yes I have all the free time in the world, Jim. That's what CEO's do, Jim. We work when we wanna work and get paid more to do less, Jim. america is one of the most violent cOUntries in the world, Jim. are we savages too, like yOU call the middle easterners?

Jihad, I forgot. Jim was the name forced on me during the slave trade. You are right. Either that, or my great, great, great, great grandparents decided to assimilate and join the melting pot at some time and eventually down the line when I was born my parents gave me the name Jim. However, Toby was forced upon my great, great, great, great grandfather during the slave trade.

Jihad, thanks for enlightening all of us. I had no Idea that the Bush's were so close to Hitler. I guess that does make me feel better about B. Hussein Obama wanting to meet with and appease our enemies and terrorists. That sounds like a mastermind plan. Let's give credibility to these savages by having the President of The United States take time out of his busy schedule to discuss what WE can do to make them feel better about themselves. You mention B. Hussein Obama's great work in the senate of trying to repeal the tax cuts by Bush. Again you are right! What better way to help an economy than to take more money out of we the people's pockets. But wait, those tax cuts were only for the rich, according to you and your liberal socialist friends, so I am sure since you make 400K you got to enjoy them. DON'T ever mention that B. Hussein Obama is doing something helpful for the military. Hell will freeze over before any military hating liberal ever does anything for the military. You also ask what can McCain offer the poor and people of color? I didn't know you had to offer something to people of color. How about just the same opportunities as everyone else. I guess that wouldn't be fair to you. I am sure you are looking for some kind of handout. Not because you are person of color, but because you are a socialist liberal. How did you figure Oklahoma has more KKK members than any other state? I have no freakin' clue, nor do I know how you would ever find that info. Seems like a CEO that makes 400k a year sure has a lot of free time on his hands to dig up info. Or did you just make that up like much of your other info?

Obama practiced law and taught law the Univ of Chicago and was a community organizer before being elected to the Illinois state senate in 1997 ! He finished his undergraduate studies in 1982 @ Columbia Univ and magna cum laude @ harvard law school in 1991, so how has he been in politics since he finished college? And like i said before, when yOU have a president that has always owned oil companies and everyone in his cabinet either owns oil companies or companies that build weaponry, it is partly his fault. I guess it's just a strange coincidence that we have record highs in oil and gas and we are fighting endless wars against an invisible enemy. Follow the money trail. who's getting rich, right now and who's carrying the burden of their decisions? yOU are blind and mis-guided fools, if yOu think he has no part in this when his buddies are making record profits! the same lobbyists that put bush in office are enjoying record profits and yOU are naive enOugh to believe there's no connection. we don't need oil to run OUr cars. we haven't for quite sometime, but why wOUld a president that has always, had his hand in the oil business want alternative sOUrces? ofcOurse he wants to look for more oil. why not look for ways other than oil to power america? we can do it, but OUr leaders want us to remain slaves so they can become wealthier and wealthier. U mean we can build space craft to fly to the moon, mars and beyond, but we can't build cars that get more that 20 miles to the gallon? what world are yOU living in? am I the only one to see that we are being bamboozled and hoodwinked?

Jiohdee- So Obama isn't a career politician? That's funny because he has been in public office since graduating college. Do you people believe that by electing Obama the price of gas will go down, or even McCain? The gullibility of America amazes me more and more each day. Listen to any person who actually knows how the oil market works and they will tell you that it doesn't matter who is in office or how much congress goes after local oil companies. As long as the US has to import 75% of its oil consumption we are going to be paying $4 a gallon. If you want prices to go down then sell that huge SUV or truck and quit filling up every other day. New oil exploration is crucial to the US becoming independent of OPEC and getting out of the control of the Saudis. If you bleeding heart liberals think that the CEO of Conoco Phillips is responsible for high oil prices, then just take into consideration that the lowest member of the Saudi Royal Family (all 7,000 of them) net worth is more than most of the CEO's in America

Wow, wayne! Who said anything abOUt blindly following anyone? If what I said bothers yOU so much then yOU must be the bigot! How do yOU know Capel didn't tell his players @ VCU to vote in 2004? This is his 1st presidential election here. I have never heard of any coach of any race tell his players to vote at all, so Capel shOUld be applauded for tellin his players to get involved. And I'm quite sure race has NEVER played a part in the american political system, Barack Obama is the first person of color in the history of this cOUntry to be worthy to be president, yeah ok. yOU worried abOUt him meetin with hamas, but yOU have no problem with bush, who's family has extensive business and personal ties to Hitler and the bin Laden family? Ok. What has Obama done during his short time in the Senate that's so bad? Let's see, he has sponsored legislation regarding lobbying and electoral fraud, tax companies that move jobs overseas, climate change, nuclear terrorism, care for returned U.S. military personnel, take away the $17 billion tax cut bush gave his friends @ the oil companies, and introduced gun control laws against assault rifles. wow, what a criminal that Obama is. If yOU knew anything abOUt Chicago (where Obama lives), yOU'd know that gangs are a big problem and he is tryin to get assault weapons off the streets there and everywhere. what kinda animals (other than humans) are yOU gonna hunt for with an AK-47? yOU can't have it both ways. yOU can't on one hand slam him for his inexperience, but then in the same breath say it's HIS policies that have messed up this cOUntry. He's only been a senator since 2005 and this cOuntry has been on the wrong track since before then! Obama is NOT a career politician and washington insider, like mccain. This isn't Mccain's 1st time running for president, if he wasn't the right choice then, what makes him so great now?
And what muslim school did Obama attend again, Columbia Univ and Harvard Law School, oh ok. Is it his fault his parents gave him a non-tradional american name? He's named after his father who is from the african nation of Kenya. I'm sure his parents were thinkin that this child of bi-racial decent born during the height of the civil rights movement just might be president one day, so let's make sure he has the right name. many of the names like Jim and Toby were forced on Africans during the slave trade! did yOU know that? well over 90% of division 1 coaches in football and basketball are white and a great majority of their players are black, so many coaches may not feel comfortable talkin abOUt politics and race with a kid that doesn't look like them or have the same issues or struggle as them. ask Stoops if he's ever asked his players to vote. And since Fox is so far and balanced, how much positive coverage have they given Obama, versus their love for mcCain? I never said Obama was the golden child, but up against mccain he's lookin more presidential everyday. what can mccain offer the poor and people of color, More $5 gas? mccain's home state of Arizona is one of the most racist OUtside of Mississippi and Okkklahoma. I bet yOu didn't know that okkklahoma has more registered klansmen than any other state in america,but I'm quite sure none of em ever post comments on this site. Arizona was the last state to acknowledge Martin Luther King Day. so please tell me, wayne what does mccain have in store for the poor and people of color, because if he does have something good for us, i sure as hell can't tell by his 20+ year voting record, but i guess I'm the one who is confused, so pay me no mind. :-))

all I know is, OSU really sucks balls!

WT???...Quote from below: And yes my name is Jiohdee, I'm sorry it's not Jim or Toby or something lame like that. SOMETHING LAME LIKE THAT??? And you portray some of us as racist for our not so blind look a Barak Hussein Obama? CHANGE?? What change? Has anyone really looked at his change?? And what did Capel (Who I admire as a coach) mean when discussing a potential Black Candidate, with Black players? Do you really think he told them who I/WE thought was the most qualified...or who HE favored because of his skin color??? Sorry for several of you below...like Jiohdee, Michael, Nathan, yOU show who is truly confused here. Michael states positive results...from Obama??? Name them...tax increases...meet with Muslin terrorists to "talk"...about what, his Muslin schooling...is that going to sway the terrorists??? Gun control that he's already lied about, twice. Check his Illinois voting record and listen to him. Get real people and read about the unqualified candidate that is a "Rock Star"...And Jiohdee...You need to turn on Fox News so you can hear the truth...BTW, FOX never told David, that Ol' Barack was ARAB...YOU Jiohdee are the one that seems confused...and I ask...since Barak is half white, why don't we ever see his WHITE relatives? Sorry dude yOU are the bigot here...the truth is available to everyone, not just the Obama robots. In a nutshell, Capel needs to stay far away from Politics. If the players aren't smart enough to read and decide on their own, they don't need to be at OUr major university paid for by my taxes...and yes Matt, I and others do have an issue with this...I wonder what Jiohbee would have to say if Bob Stoops brought ALL of his players in and reminded them they have the opportunity to vote for the first American Prisoner of War Candidate and American Hero...John McCain, hmmm?...just my opinion...

I have even more respect for Capel. Great article, and for the people that have issue with this, I feel sorry for you.

David, Barack Obama is NOT of ARAB decent!!!! His parents are Barack Obama, Sr., of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, a White American from Wichita, Kansas. Many Africans have Muslim names, because many African nations practice Islam! When are yOU peple gonna turn off Fox News and educate yOUrselves?! He's half black and half white! He was born in Hawaii, which is a state in America! His father is in no way shape or form an ARAB! Where do yOU people get this mis-information from? Haven't yOU heard of Gregor Mendel? He looks like a black guy because the black gene is dominant and white is recessive. Please don't post if yOU don't have correct information. It only helps fan the flames on ignorance!

It was a decent article, but can someone please explain to me why Barack Obama is called a BLACK MAN? His mother was 100% Caucasion, and his father was 75% ARAB decent.... Is it because of his skin color? I have Caucasion friends with tan's darker than that. Can someone please explaine it to me? If you have more than 10% African American or "Black" in your blood you are black or african american? It makes no sense.
