Only a disinfo agent would say that 9/11 was an inside job

This is my theory. As I've said elsewhere, I think thermite explanations for 9/11 are just as stupid as no-plane explanations. So if no-planers - like Tracy Blevins - are disinfo agents, then why not Steven Jones or even our own Tony Szamboti? Is it possible the whole 9/11 Truth Movement is a plot hatched by the Democrats to make the right-wing look so stupid no one can possibly take them seriously?

I've been wondering about this. I can't come up with any other reason for why there are still Truthers around anymore.

Interesting you should say that. I remember back when Ron Paul was THE "Truther candidate". Not that Paul is a truther himself, but that he's the guy all the Truthers looked up to and admired for some reason. Paul's opponents actually used this AGAINST him by basically pointing out "see these people? These are the kind of people who support Ron Paul!"

Would Paul have won the election if it weren't for the Truthers' "support"? Well...no. Still not a chance. So I don't really know where I'm going with this. Maybe he would've gotten a few extra districts. I dunno. He'd still have the problem of having Stormfront's "support" as well. Plus that whole "gold standard" idea wasn't really selling.

Maybe Truthers should publicly support the presidential candidate they LEAST prefer. That might work!

hehe, reminds me of the South Park episode where the KKK realise that because everyone hates them, they should support the side which they don't want to win

(It's S04E08 for those wanting to know)
