9/11 Panel Questions Psychics About Intelligence Failure
4/14/2004 - William Grim

Washington - Members of the Congressional panel investigating the 9/11 terrorist attacks grilled members of the Psychic Network for five hours today over the apparent failure of that organization to predict the actions of Al-Qaeda.
“The question is: What did the Psychic Network dream and when did they dream about it?” said Richard Ben-Veniste, chief minority counsel for the committee.
“Ooh, mon, we not be making no predictions about Al-Qaeda,” said Madame Mojo, the Jamaican-born CPO (chief psychic officer) of the Psychic Network. “The FBI never made no call to our 800 number, never gave us no VISA, MasterCard or American Express number. You want predictions you gotta make with the money or ganja, mon.”
Mr. Ben-Veniste then announced that subpoenas had been issued to all women who are registered Republicans to force them to testify why their women’s intuition did not predict the 9/11 attacks.
“There are 50 million Republican women out there who have a lot to answer for,” said Ben-Veniste. “And I won’t stop until I have questioned every single one of them, regardless of how many billable hours at $750 an hour it takes.”
