Reagan hit man Hinkley and 9/11 suspect Mossaoui have same psychiatrist!
Reagan hit man Hinkley's pschiatrist same as for 9/11 hijacker Moussaoui:

http://newsblaster.cs.columbia.edu/archives/2002-05-01-08-00-56/web/summaries/05_01_02_17.html

Summary:
A man indicted as a Sept. 11 conspirator will be examined by a psychiatrist whose testimony against furloughs for presidential assailant John W. Hinckley helped keep him inside a mental hospital over the recommendation of his doctor. Patterson testified in 1997 that Hinckley should not be allowed to leave the grounds of the hospital, where he has lived since a jury in 1982 found him innocent by reason of insanity in the shooting of President Reagan. Raymond Patterson, a prominent forensic psychiatrist who treated presidential assailant John W. Hinckley Jr., has been appointed by a federal judge to evaluate whether Zacarias Moussaoui is mentally competent to defend himself against terrorism charges. A federal judge ruled Tuesday she was not prejudiced against the man accused of conspiracy in the Sept. 11 attacks and refused Zacarias Moussaoui's request that she dismiss herself from the case.

2. Hinkley Sr. was a big fundraiser for Bush Sr.
In fact, Neil Bush had lunch with Scott Hinkley (the brother) the day before John Hinkley shot Reagan while Bush Sr. was VP.

4. This is merely a coincidence
Move along now. Nothing to see here.

Have you heard the rumour? Choco-rations may be increased by 2 mg. next quarter. Such a comforting thought.

5. "Why does Mr. Moussaoui believe ....trying to kill him".
http://www.unansweredquestions.org/topic.php?tid=61
"Why does Mr. Moussaoui believe that his current counsel are trying to kill him? Until this question is answered, no decision should be made" on whether Moussaoui should represent himself. Moussaoui is charged with conspiracy to commit terrorism, pirate aircraft, destroy aircraft, use weapons of mass destruction, murder U.S. government employees and destroy property.

6. Who believes in coincidence theories?
Not me. Not when it comes to the BFEE.

9. My first thought...
... was to pity the poor shrink. What a caseload!

But if Moussaoui is mentally ill, of course he will be put away and no one will hear his side of the story. I suppose we will just keep on thinking that "they hate us because we are free."

10. There's even more
If my memory serves me well I think with a little research you would find this same shrink is Siran Siran's keeper as well. He is the guy in jail for killing R. Kennedy. I think he is also tied somehow to the guy that killed Lennon.

12. "Wright Patterson was -- and is ... Sirhan Sirhan,"
This is contained in the "Octopus document" which I am unable to retrieve anywhere. Patterson is a common name. Weird about "Wright-Patterson AFB" similarity.

Ashcroft apparently retained a "Ray Patterson" as a copywright lawyer. Moussaoui stated he wanted to kill Aschcroft.

11. What a shock!!!
I mean, a high profile DC-area having high profile DC-area court-appointed clients? What are the odds?

I don't see how this is any more interesting than say all the celebrities who have used Johnnie Cochran or Roy Black.

14. Good point. But

I would be interested in finding out Patterson's links, if any, to the intelligence community, or Bushies. Why the judge appointed him, etc.
If there are links was Patterson in contact with any of these people,orgs during the trial?
If he was what did they discuss, etc.?
Oops, that is an issue of national security, sorry.
