You do realize the term “conspiracy theory” was coined by the CIA to discredit the John Birch Society, just about every one of which’s “conspiracy theories” have come true?

Don’t care where the term originated and don’t care how many conspiracy theories have ended up true, it is certainly a minority of the ones that have been hatched. In this case, in my opinion, they seem to be bordering on silly paranoia.

I just don’t get it. On the one hand we keep hearing people here talking about how inept the government is, especially the FBI but then some of the same people hatch these elaborate theories about how masterfully these same government types are pulling the wool over everyone’s eyes. It seems almost schizophrenic. I am not saying the government hasn’t done some crappy things, it certainly has, but it isn’t responsible for every coincidence and there isn’t a government agent behind every rock.
