Source please. google video I found a whole bunch of videos on there about Noam Chomsky and 9/11 Conspiracy Theories. Would you be so kind as to save me a bunch of time looking through them all and simply provide me with a link to the video containing the statement you are referring to? Thanks mate, I appreciate your help. Edited by bobloblaw, Jun 21 2008, 10:31 AM.

The term "conspiracy theory" is frequently used by mainstream scholars and in popular culture to identify a type of folklore similar to an urban legend, especially an explanatory narrative which is constructed with particular methodological flaws. If you feel somehow insulted by this then I would suggest this is your problem, not mine. The term "conspiracy theory" is an insult, it is a term that carries within it the notion of illegitimacy, so your original question is framed in a way to de-legitimise the discussion. if you refuse to aknowledge this fact, then you lie.

Dude, I am getting tired of your quibbling word games. You are partaking in a conspiracy theory, therefore you are a conspiracy theorist. I DON'T CARE IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY THIS STATEMENT. You also might want to look up the word "lie" because it seems you use it inappropriately. Edited by bobloblaw, Jun 21 2008, 10:40 AM.

What was written on the piece of paper that Chomsky dismissed as "conspiracy theory?" This is about what I'd expect from your average truther video. A bunch of cherry picked quotes with no context. Guilt by association. Circumstancial evidence.... Pretty sure they covered off at least two of the three core techniques. Edited by bobloblaw, Jun 21 2008, 11:30 AM.

[b=Look at US history since WWII and there is a Bush behind every major event.[/b] Dimson is just the empty suit, that Poppy stuffed back into the Oval Office. But Poppy and his pals have been pulling and planning most of the crap that's gone down in the last 50+ years. Whose behind Poppy Bush - Big Oil of course and isn't that what all this is really all about. Who gets to control the oil, by any means necessary? How was the Bush family involved in the Vietnam war? How was the Bush family involved in the Cuban missile crises? How was the Bush family involved in the Kennedy assassination? How was the Bush family involved any of the SALT talks? How was the Bush family involved in the Berlin blockade? How was the Bush family involved in the Apollo programme? How was the Bush family involved in the Korean War? How was the Bush family involved in the rise of the hippie sub-culture? How was the Bush family involved in Watergate? I could go on. Please provide answers and links to evidence supporting your answers. You msut have answers since, the Bush family is involved in everything.

Posts: 34 Group: Skeptics Member #387 Joined: 03/09/08	So I guess it was a Bush on the Grassy Knoll? Next we are going to hear a Bush was the director of the moon landing fakes video. Or Bush was a commander of the USS Maddox? Or Bush was walking along the 38th parralel and fired a shot into North Korea in 1950? Bush provoked the Soviets in Berlin at Checkpoint Charlie. Bush was at the near the Watergate Hotel. It was actually him, not Forrest Gump who called the cops.
