Personally I blame the wildeyed conspiracy theories on many many unanswered questions about 911 and the perpetrators, and why the Govt, has given some of them, like the Saudis, such a huge pass in the war on a tactic. This leads to some real farout speculation.
Too many questions still.

Too many questions still.Like who bought all the "puts" on United and American Airlines stock a few days prior. The feds never did answer that one.

I blame the wildeyed conspiracy theories on a simple hatred of Bush. I got to listening for a while to Air America radio, particularly Garofalo's show. What struck me was that she and her callers would all readily believe anything no matter how absurd on its face it was. As long as it somehow case Bush, Cheney or Rumsfeld specifically or conservatives generally in some kind of crooked light, they were ready and willing to bite.
I have a theory that liberals confuse interesting with compelling. Just because something is interesting doesn't mean it is true or should become a foundation for a belief system.
