Anyone who is inspired by a drooling, slack-jawed wrestler/freak (redundancy) is stupid beyond belief.
HAVE YOU ANY QUESTIONS?

I saw that Hannity interview. He was also on Opie and Anthony that morning. I remember thinking he sounded like a conspiracy loon.

It's a shame really...I liked him as an actor. When I heard him talking about 9/11 I was almost embarrassed for him. |

Why? He didn't say the gov planned it or any other such nonsense. He simply said it isn't as simple as the explanations, and asked why anytime someone questions the validity of the accepted wisdom, they are immediately attacked.
Sounds reasonable to me.

What is it about the "simple explanations" about the attacks that you find so difficult to believe?
(This ought to be good!)

Perhaps you missed the subject. It reads "Jesse Ventura". What I believe isn't being discussed, it is what Jesse said. You'll have to ask him. I simply said that his statement sounded reasonable, as opposed to how Grumpy & Mr. D seemed to hear it.

He did more than make that simple statement. He suggests that the government could very well have been complicit yet he has absolutely no evidence that it was in any way, shape, or form. He doesn't realize that he is mocked precisely because he persists with this sort of speculation minus any real basis for doing so. |

this is ron paul wink and nod bull shit. a refusal to change, to accept that we are at war, to recognize the enemy and to develop a tool box to specifically deal with the new realities that we face, all combined to ensure the deaths of 3000 americans.
