    (please note, this is not an endorsement nor a refutation of any given "theory")
    As so many people are blaming the START of this economic downturn on Bush Jr, when so mnay fact prove it wasn't, he only allowed it get get worse!

    People are ignorant to Most things they believe what they are told, like we needed to pass the 700 B bank bill and the 787 B bailout bill PRONTO! Hell how do you think McCarthyism(sp) started?
    "I know you guys enjoy reading my stuff because it all makes sense. "

    Dumbest post ever! Thanks for the laugh PO!

    No dummy, the question about the Saudi's is so simple minded that I can't believe an adult asked it.
    Let me put it in a way that only a stooge like you may understand...11 blacks committed a gang assault. Are all blacks guilty? Should we incarcerate or attack the entire black community?
    I'm embarrassed to have to inform you that we don't attck a country because their citizens committed a crime.
    We do attack a country that harbors, trains, and encourages those that attacked us.

    Is Orchard Park responsible for that Muslim that beheaded his wife? Should we attack Orchard Park, or should we attack the country the beheader came from?


    Your childlike understanding of the world around you is simply amazing.

    BTT,
    Where did you go? Are you still trying to figure out why we don't attack a country every time their citizens commit a crime in the US?

    Funny how something becomes a "conspiracy theory" when the mainstream media does a massive smear campagin (esp over time)
    or someone or something is "UnAmeircan" or "Unpatriotic" because the media says so,
    a media which is by no means "fair and balanced" in any way.

    The tough and painful questions are rarely asked because they make people think and that can lead to complaining and mass protests and before you know it, we were out of Viet Nam so to keep the corporations and what few politicians running this fascist-quasi socialist state happy-The truth and its advocates is mocked into "conspiracy land" by well-paid liars.

    NOT to say there are not some serious wacko totally implausible theories;Connecting the dots out there.

    Remember that terms such as "conspiracy nuts" and "the liberal media" are simply creations of a vast & powerful media that offers us little choice.

    Hell. In the case of 9/11, REAL journalists would admit that there are a LOT of unanswered questions and no, unlike the 9/11 truth movements asking for a new investigation I expect zero action to ever be taken just like we will NEVER see Bush, Cheney and all the key players brought to trial for war crimes.


    You know, even IF the Fairness Doctrine were enacted and the liberal media found enough corporate funding to compete on equal footing with the conservative media, most of us would CONTINUE to believe that hateful rantings, the smug reassurance of the O' Reilly's and other pieces of human waste.

    We're just too comfortable, too used to being lied to;Deceived.
    I really believe that we (most of us) "can't handle the truth"
    which goes to show how spineless & dumbed down we've truly become.
    Coincidence is the word we use when we can't see the levers and pulleys.

    I don't know about you, but we (US) did not hang Saddam, he was tried in his own country by his own people and hung according to their laws. Where were you when all this happened?

    The Iraqi government was elected by the people of Iraq. Try a fork.

    BTT,
    I noticed you conveniently failed to address the obvious reason we didn't attack Saudi Arabia.

    The U.S., Russia and one or two other nations supplied most of Saddam's chem, bio and other weapons and with the STRONG FRIENDLY RELATIONS the U.S. had with Hussein we COULD EASILY have intervened and told Saddam, "lay off your people or else!" Which of course would never happen in this S world.

    The Kurds were abandoned by Bush Sr. which of course is always denied and laughed at by the media because "we're the good guys" another fallacy.

    But be good obedient sheep and never question what you hear, read and see in the news because its from "professionals" who would never, ever lie to us for the sake of a fat paycheck as they (the media) say exactly what the govt and their corporate masters dictate.

    And remember; Original, creative thinking is a bad thing.
    Unquestioning, compliant conformism is a GOOD thing.
    Be a good citizen.
    Trust everything your government tells you through the media
    OR
    end up on the NSA's and FEMA's S list.


    Its really staggering what a trusting, dumbed-down society we've become.

    WE gave Hussein most of the military power he needed and when we "felt like it," we took that power away and its all been a huge success since then! Mission accomplished and all that.

    This is all about money. Nothing else.
