I’ve studied enough Cass Sunstein to make me wary of all conspiracy theories.

“magical thinking”

Hmmm, seems like I remember some calling Obozo the “magic negro”. Is this how his thinking is developed?

BUT, I agree with you we should focus on the facts that makes sense and fit coherently within the pieces of evidence.

That is next to impossible with the terrible quality of the average MSM & AP article.

This does not mean that Holder’s will not try to spin this story to protect the “Won” and his agenda.

Really good article. You’re going to get some odd replies about it, I’ll wager.

Basically, three kinds of people. The lonely (“this’ll get me some attention”), the Internet nihilists who think they’re The Joker (“let’s throw some anarchy into this Boston Marathon massacre story”), and the worst of the worst – the bloggers who know that creating these fakes will up their site hits because some of YOU will inevitably fall for them, share them, your friends will share them, their friends will share them, and voila, you’ve just made us all look like idiots. In the space of 18 hours, thanks to a few of you, a Youtube video pulling the “pre-event Facebook page” trick regarding the Boston Marathon bombings has almost 85,000 hits. Nice going.Basically, three kinds of people.

There is a conspiracy cottage industry on the internet, and no shortage of easy marks for them. Thanks for the primer on some of their favorite tricks.

The problem is that the Left’s false memes and conspiracy theories do actually seem to work much of the time. Global warming, class warfare/Marxism are peddaled as rich industrialists screwing over the noble workers and the solution is always more government and less liberty. Has the Left ever been penalized for their false memes and consipiracy theories?
Instead of focusing on the cause of the attack, we need to focus on the response to the attack. We must insist that, no matter what the cause of the event, innocent people must not have their natural rights restricted by the government.
