Who where the 100 CEO's
That where not at the WTC on 9/11?

Wasn't it suppose to be a golf tourney or something?

Was that normal SOP? Standard operating procedures?

3. Info
I found this:

"For nine years ending in 2001, Buffett hosted an annual golf tournament for celebrities, professional athletes, and CEOs, with all proceeds going to charity. It raised about $9-million for four charities. The last such event was scheduled to be held at Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, on Sept. 11, 2001. They didn't end up playing golf that day, but the event did save the lives of at least a few CEOs who would have otherwise probably been at work in the World Trade Center."

BTW, Buffet is from Omaha.

I really doubt there is anything strange about this.

11. Webster Tarpley thinks that Bush went to Offut AFB to take control
of the US nuclear arsenal-- this is part of the idea that 9/11 was actually a military coup by a rogue group who wanted to start a world war.

8. Opponent
I hardly think that Bush being in the same place as a political opponent is a coincidence. As for the CEOs, they never do any real work anyway - just play golf and do lunch.

14. Buffett
The man has his head screwed on and opposed the tax cuts pretty vigourously.

6. Usual
It says the tournament was usually held in early September here:

Although, after looking at the site for a couple of minutes, I think that perhaps you might not want to take the claim at face value.

13. I believe their breakfast started very early, before 9/11 events began
What are so many CEOs doing up at 6:00 in the morning if its just an outing?

15. And guess who elses was there? Pig-boy Rush.
From an earlier post:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=125x41811

Early in the morning on 9/11, a small group of top financial CEO's with offices in the WTC, were flown to the nerve center of U.S. air defenses, for a "Charity Classic" golf event (fund raiser benefit for youth groups). Warren Buffett hosted this event. Rush Limbaugh said on the air that he was there also. Then there is the group of top Pentagon officials who suddenly canceled travel plans on September 10th due to security concerns. These are just a few of many highly suspicious and strange coincidences.-by someone named Mary Louise at Prison Planet.

17. Oddities,coincidences,rarities about 9/11
Sound like a best hits box set..


http://thewebfairy.com/killtown/oddities/911.html


"• 9/11 - President Bush is in Florida in which his brother Jeb is the Governor and was the state that had controversially handed him the 2000 presidency.

"...you're not going to believe what state I was in when I heard about the terrorist attack. I was in Florida," said Bush. -White House (12/04/01)

"The previous evening Mr Bush had dined beachside with his brother Jeb, the governor of Florida, the state that had, albeit controversially, handed him the presidency." - Telegraph UK (12/16/01)

(See also: September 7, 2001 - Jeb Bush signs a two year Florida executive emergency order four days before 9/11.)



• 9/11 - Former President, ex-CIA Director, and Bush's father George H. W. Bush had spent the night at the White House the night before and supposedly leaves early in the morning before the attacks occur.

"September 11, 2001
A Tuesday
Nine hundred miles to the north, Laura Bush also started the day early. In her husband's absence, the job of taking Spot the English springer spaniel and their frisky black Scottish terrier Barney for their morning walk had fallen to the First Lady. Afterward, Laura returned to the second-floor family quarters for a quick breakfast with her in-laws. George H. W. Bush and his wife Barbara had spent the night at the White House and were about to board a private jet bound for a speaking engagement in Minnesota." -CBS 'The Early Show' (10/01/02)



• 9/11 - Defense contractor The Carlyle Group in which Bush's Dad is a senior advisor hosts a conference in D.C. which featured honored guest Osama Bin Laden's brother.

"On 11 September, while Al-Qaeda's planes slammed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, the Carlyle Group hosted a conference at a Washington hotel. Among the guests of honor was a valued investor: Shafig bin Laden, brother to Osama." - Guardian Unlimited (05/16/02)

"It didn't help that as the World Trade Center burned on Sept. 11, 2001, the news interrupted a Carlyle business conference at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel here attended by a brother of Osama bin Laden. Former president Bush, a fellow investor, had been with him at the conference the previous day." - Washington Post (03/16/03)

The Carlyle Group - The Honorable George H. W. Bush, Senior Advisor



• 9/11 - Billionaire Warren Buffett hosts his last annual golf charity event at U.S. Strategic Command at Offutt AFB -- where Bush later flew to for "safety" -- that included a WTC CEO, Ann Tatlock, who's offices were right where Flight 175 crashed into.

"On the morning of Sept. 11, Tatlock herself had just arrived with a small group of business leaders at Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha for a charity event hosted by Warren Buffett. She then heard the news of the first plane hitting the World Trade Center's north tower.
Moments later, back in Omaha, a television picture flashed on a large screen, and Tatlock witnessed the second plane plowing into the south tower.
"There on the screen, I saw the second plane crash into my office," Tatlock recalled." - San Francisco Business Times (week of 02/04/02)

"On the morning of September 11, 2001, Warren Buffett, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, was watching television in his home in Omaha, Nebraska, as he got ready to host his last annual Charity Classic golf and tennis tournament." - Robert P. Miles (05/02)

"3:07 p.m. – Bush arrives at U.S. Strategic Command at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska." - September11News.com"



I heard that poppy o bush was at the carliars breakfast..but whatever..that Ann tatlock sure is one lucky cia...oops I mean ceo
