Why are the Leftist Nutjobs calling Jerome Corsi a "Truther?"

[rightinthemiddle]

Last night on Hannity & Colmes, Colmes kept saying Jerome Corsi is a "truther" and can't be taken seriously.

I've been scouring the internet looking for evidence Jerome Corsi, author of Obama Nation, is a 9/11 "Truther." All find is links to left-wing nutjob website where they don't usually use evidence to back up their claims, including DU (which is funny, because a lot of them think Bush had something to do with 9/11).

Does anybody know anything or have quotes from Corsi? Has he addressed this anywhere?

Well,hell, folks-let’s go to the videotape !
Source is Pro-Obama-clearly-but the content tells some of the story.

What is the NAU?

[rightinthemiddle]

North American Union...Canada, the U.S. and Mexico joined to together, something like the EU.

North American Union.
It is a ‘conspiracy’ that there is a plan in the works to dissolve the United States and make a new super country with Mexico and Canada. This conspiracy bloomed from discussions and proposals for trade agreements and security treaties (something many fail to realize we already have with Mexico and Canada- NORAD).

Thank you.

[you made me do it]

On pages 30-32, Corsi discusses Robert Pastor's comments that a 9/11-type crisis may force the U.S. government to make decisions that it wouldn't otherwise. I think (emphasis on "think") that's about as close as Corsi gets to being a Truther. (And I don't think it's enough).

[mnehring]

Thanks,
We may be able to use it. The accusation is actually Corsi discussing someone else's belief (albeit, I am still not happy with his going on Alex Jones and Duke's radio programs- not sure I want to hitch my horse to that cart when there are so many other carts out there.)

[1rudeboy]

It appears that Colmes (and others, probably—it’s probably in that 40+ page rebuttal to Corsi that the Obama campaign released) is engaged in a “guilt by association” gambit here.

[mnehring]

Guilt by Association does have a point if you choose to freely, and repeatedly associate with someone for the reason of their beliefs (such as going on Jones’ show.)

[BOATSNM8]

Does Obama really want to go down the “guilt by association” road? hehe

[Borges]

You may know.

[1rudeboy]

Corsi's in a tough spot (where he placed himself of his own volition). He probably appeared on Jones' program to promote The Late Great U.S.A. Now his opponents are using his appearance(s) to impugn Obama Nation.

What's that saying about sleeping with dogs and getting fleas?

Folks, I have more than enough evidence ("spam" as some idiots here called it) on my FR Home page to convince even the dopiest disbeliever what the ObamaRats are all about. And the best thing about it, it's FREE! Thank me very much!

I work with a former petroleum chemist and he says there is a geochemical case for abiotic oil. There are larger number of chemists in this field who do not demise this as bunk.
Read the “Hot Deep Biosphere” by the late Thomas Gold.
Gold is a relatively famous astrophysicist (Austrian extraction... I think his last academic posting was at Cornell.) He once was an associate of Hoyle & Bondi, in short he is no slouch ! The Wikipedia article on him is quite good!(Yes I know that Wikipedia is not an academically definitive source!)

Why are the Leftist Nutjobs calling Jerome Corsi a "Truther?"

Maybe they found out that Corsi had been attending Rev. Wright's church for 20 years.

[wideawake]

This past January, Corsi appeared on the Alex Jones show (Jones is a well-known Truther) and agreed with Alex Jones that the claims of Steven Earl Jones (the BYU adjunct professor who says that the WTC was detonated from inside via a "controlled demolition") should be taken more seriously, that S.E. Jones' arguments had merit.

Corsi is a Truther.

From a 2004 thread at FR discussing the specious releases from the 911 commission (jrlc is Jerome Corsi's handle at FR):

To: Chunga
The story is DOA -- but that won't stop the media and the RATS. Rather than admit they were on a witch hunt, just trying once again to bash Bush, the meida and their pals, the RATS, will just troll around to find the next thing --however small -- they can use to attack the President. The RATS on the 9/11 Panel should be disgraced, but to be disgraced requires you to start with a concept of honor.

Colmes is a lying liberal puke who uses interruption and talking over guests to squelch what his leftist mind doesn't want viewers to hear. Guilt by association indeed! Jones is an idiot and Dr. Corsi should not let fools like that leverage him.

[1rudeboy]

Darn. No wonder I hadn’t heard of it. And I’m not surprised WND didn’t report it.
