Politics, culture, and whatever else crosses our NOVA minds
Alex Jones is right, because Hugo Chavez agrees with him.
President Hugo Chavez said Tuesday that it’s at least plausible that the U.S. government was involved in the Sept. 11 attacks.
Chavez did not specifically accuse the U.S. government of having a hand in the Sept. 11 attacks, but rather suggested that theories of U.S. involvement bear examination.
The Tinfoil-Hat Society can open their Venezuelan branch office now.
What exactly qualifies someone to be a “leading academic” ?
The 9/11 terrorist attack on America which left almost 3,000 people dead was an “inside job”, according to a group of leading academics.
Around 75 top professors and leading scientists believe the attacks were puppeteered by war mongers in the White House to justify the invasion and the occupation of oil-rich Arab countries.
But this is the “jump the shark” passage….
The group also maintains World Trade Centre 7 - a neighbouring building which caught fire and collapsed later in the day - was only partially damaged but had to be destroyed because it housed a clandestine CIA station.
Koo-koo…. koo-koo….
Or is it the other way around ?
Joe Wilson has decided to respond to the absolute crumbling of his whole story by….. what else….. bolstering his case by quoting all his left-wing nutcase supporters.
As you think about this, our website (Wilsonsupport.org) has a copy of the letter I sent to the SSCI when its report first came out, challenging some of its conclusions. The LeftCoaster has a terrific study by eriposte on the whole Niger forgery case from beginning to end. Firedoglake and the Next Hurrah both have highly informative analyses of the case by skilled researchers and former prosecutors. I recommend them all as resoruces to jog memories. by this afternoon, I expect that our own team will have an updated set of talking points to distribute for your use as well.
Typical. And sad.
I just love posting about some of the insane comments we get. Here’s one posted yesterday by (I’m sure) loyal reader ‘trip’:
erm, something almost none of you alex jones slammers havent taken into account is that most of his work is evidently documented! do you understand that concept, EVIDENTLY DOCUMENTED!
“erm”, no, I don’t understand that concept, because “evidently documented” doesn’t mean anything. I assume you mean he has evidenCE, but let me restate the truth about this old yarn….. if your evidence and sources and contacts are other nutjobs, that doesn’t exactly bolster your arguement.
It’s similar to the columnist Pauline Kael after the ‘72 presidential election. Oh, and by the way, this is how you actually gather evidence- not by listening to everyone who agrees with you…. She has been widely reported to say “how did Nixon win, I don’t know anyone who voted for him”. (Nixon won that in a landslide) What she actually said was “”I live in a rather special world. I only know one person who voted for Nixon. Where they are I don’t know. They’re outside my ken. But sometimes when I’m in a theater I can feel them.” At least she could admit, however blindly, how absolutely insulated her and her worldview was. (that’s a quote from the NYT, by the way, not exactly my “bible”)
this basicaly means that its not up for debate whether or not he is right or wrong. he is a research journalist you morons, you know, someone who gathers ‘information’ and ‘factual evidence’.
Au contraire, mon frere. That basically means I can absolutly debate it. If you and Mr. Jones don’t have the ’stones’ to put up with criticism, then you need to find a shed in the mountains and stay there. For every ‘fact’ he has to establish his ‘evidence’ I can provide 10x the counter-evidence in the form of witness testimony, participant testimony, government testimony, reports, news accounts, etc… and not from the cranks that Jones hangs his hat on, but from notoriously convervative sources as the New York Times, CNN, the DNC, Clinton admin press releases.
And to call Alex Jones a “journalist” is a severe insult to actual journalists. He’s more of an Art Bell wannabe.
try waking up and smelling the coffee. expand your fucking minds for christ sakes!
oh yeah, and anyone that has absolutly any admiration for george bush is clearly a complete knumskull, you are the reason children are getting bombed everyday, you make me sick.
“knumskull” ?! Nahhh… too easy. But I’m sorry you are sick, ‘trip’. Maybe you should see a doctor. Actually, I think you need a few doctors. Go here and I’m sure they can help you out.
