It really is as simple as that. But a certain percentage of FR (probably smaller than it seems) is just hellbent on finding a conspiracy SOMEWHERE. Its rather sad, because I find those I know on the left (democrats, commies, and other assorted idiots) resort to conspiracy theories all the time.
I think its ok to idly speculate on conspiracies, I do it all the time. But I think there is a difference between speculating about the possibility of a conspiracy, and much of the conspiracy hunting we see going on here on FR.
Paradox, the very reason that this forum exists is because it is the last bastion of truth in our age, the information age. Our kind, Freepers/conservatives, have been designated by fate to stand up to tyranny. The left being, of course, the very embodiment of dishonesty, is our primary foe. But their stench permeates our government still. I'm not convinced that GW has the capability of ridding us of that evil quite yet. If you think that the people who are able to see through this concocted BS gov't story are in the minority here, perhaps you need to find a different forum. The fact is, the vast majority of the folks here KNOW what didn't happen. Happenstance, or birds if you like, call it what you want, was not a party to this event.
