This article (http://www.brainsturbator.com/site/comments/plain_and_simple_****_9_11/) was linked to at another forum, and I thought some of you might have some worthwhile comments.

This article will be deliberately provocative, because I want to provoke a discussion, or at least a long look in the mirror, because I think you’re all wasting your time.

Warning: contains strong language.

Well, at least he was right about one thing.

Bush really does eat kittens.

He appears to be stupid and a defeatist.

At least most Truthers are dedicated. You can't fault their lack of commitment.

To augment what Andrew just said, he appears to be a stupid pseudo elitist. His whole attitude stinks of Childlike Empress.

"I'm so much smarter than you guys, I can see the big picture and you're being suckered by The Man into playing his game."

All I had to see is his kudos to Hopsicker to know that he's just a blowhard. He thinks he's written his Jerry Maguire and is now going to rouse the rabble to higher standards of Troofism!

You had me at "good-bye"!

Dedicated to ignorance, maybe. Christophera, for example - thousands of posts scattered across various forums, and no forward movement whatsoever. He is, and probably always will be, dedicated to a delusion. Is this in any way deserving of anything other than a one-way ticket to a sanatarium?

May very well be because he actually realised he was wrong and is trying to maintain some dignity.

"We've got diddly-squat evidence to take to the International Court of Justice, so won't someone think of the children?!"

ETA: Their argument is just one giant non-sequitur.

Thirtyseven's point about the disadvantaged of the world suffering at the expense of our misplaced priorities is a valid one. While I wouldn't classify the debate on 9/11 as a major resource drain, I do think our national response to the event has been.

Yes, quite possibly. The “there are children staving in the world” tack is the last refuge of those who just want people to shut up about something. It’s like, after having been backed into a corner on the issue of 9/11, he’s let off a moral smoke bomb and run from room.

For some reason there is a different URL for the article with comments. You need to replace the **** in the link given in the OP to a certain "f" word - I can't post the correct link because the JREF software wipes it out for me.
