9/11 Conspiracy Theories Gain Ground, Study Finds

CNSNews ^ | September 11, 2007 | Matt Purple

Yes, I think there is a conspiracy also and it involves the msm.

[massgopguy]

I like the claim that the Towers collapsed faster than the speed of gravity. Since the speed of gravity is the speed of light, the towers should have collapsed before we saw them collapse. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

[MNJohnnie]

according to a poll commissioned by a Web site that promotes alternative explanations for the events of Sept. 11

OK, so the wack jobs claim they are NOT wack jobs and this gets reported as "news"????

[Always Right]

Among that 31 percent, around 26 percent agreed that the American government "knew the attacks were coming but consciously let them proceed for various political, military, and economic motives." Almost 5 percent believed that U.S. officials "actively planned or assisted some aspects of the attack."

They are taking percentages of percentages to try to make it look worse than it is. 26% of 31% is 8% of the total population. And 5% of 31% is 1.5%. Still a lot of kooks out there, but they are pretty much isolated to cesspools like DU. Poor, dumb, single, liberals.

I think this line says it all: “Those who doubted the official explanation also tended to be low-income, single, and young. They most frequently associated with a liberal or progressive ideology.”

[AppyPappy]

Yeah. George W Bush, the stupidist president to ever live, was smart enough to mastermind an elaborate conspiracy that killed 3,000 people in just a few months.

Hey! Even that great, world renown physicist Rosie told us that it was the first time in HISTORY that fire melted steel!

Did anyone see the William Rodriguez presentation on CSPAN — I couldn;t decide who was more whacked out the magician’s assitant/janitor or Ed Asner.

[T.Smith]

My fear is that Bush and 9/11 will become like Roosevelt and Pearl Harbor. It’s pretty much taken as given by so many Americans that Roosevelt knew about the attacks, but let them proceed so that he could get the U.S. into WWII. It’s as if it is just common knowledge.

I’m afraid that 50 years from now people will take it as common knowledge that Bush new about 9/11, but let it happen so that he could get the U.S. into wars with Iraq and Afghanistan.

[AuH2O-1980]

I’m no believer of conspiracy theories, but I’ve got a feeling that they’re not implicating President Bush. Haven’t you heard? It was all Sata... I mean, Cheney.

[presidio9]

I think there is something to all of this. I haven't trusted The Man ever since he hid the Ark of the Covenenant away in that huge government warehouse back in the late 30's.

[Names Ash Housewares]

Dont worry this wont be future history anymore then fake moon landings is.

Classic, thanks!

The poll, conducted by Zogby International for 911Truth.org and released last week

Again, underlining the point that who pays for a poll affects its outcome.

Don't trust the polls. Online, telephone, etc. They are not the truth. Most often, they are used by libmedia as a tool to attack conservative positions or to discredit the support for Republican policy.

Libmedia is not our friend. Neither are the polls they pay for.

[goldstategop]

We have a lot of idiots in our society unwilling to accept the obvious truth at face value. Usually a cigar is really a cigar!
