How Retarded Are These People?

Politically, apparently profoundly retarded. Check out this absurd post over at 9-11 Blogger:

Who do 9/11 truthers want to be President in 08

My nomination is Ray McGovern and Paul Craig Roberts VP. It appears that our votes will decide the next president since there are more 9/11 truthers than those that chose the last two presidents combined. Whomever we nominate will win. Isn't that exciting?


Of course, somehow despite all that popularity, not one 9-11 Denier managed to get elected last Tuesday. If anything the comments are even more loopy, with somebody suggesting a Cynthia McKinney/Ron Paul ticket.

Seriously, were they even in the country on election day? Didn't they see all the revisionists didn't get elected?

Guys, stop drinking the Thermaid.

What the hell does Halliburton have to do with anything? I guess that is the stock CT answer to everything. Halliburton was also behind the Spanish inquisition and the Norman Conquest.

What's really sad is that even if by some miracle they were able to garner enough signatures to get on to a ballot somewhere, when they were totally oblterated by a margin of a million to one, all they'd do is scream "DIEBOLD DIEBOLD"!!!!

Retards.

I'm one of the people who started asking, several months ago, just what the hell was the point of knocking down the buildings. Obviously, the Impossibly Vast Conspiracy started its war (you remember--the invasion of Afghanistan that the Taliban could have PREVENTED by simply handing over Osama) when planes flew into buildings. The collapse of the Twin Towers, as far as anybody can tell, merely midwifed a recession that Bush, predictably, got blamed for.
Some lunatic is trying to make the inevitable connection to Halliburton. It's amazing how these lying morons think that by invoking their demon figures they can end all debate. Halliburton doesn't have a role in the 9/11 narrative, but, hey, what's the difference? Now, they have decided that the WTC had to be knocked down because of asbestos problems. Yeah, we'll buy that. Wasn't it yesterday that "they" knocked down the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building?

If they had to knock down every building in the USA with asbestos in it, the word "skyscraper" would represent a mythological structure.

9/11, faced with 95% of the "truth" theories rendered debunked and silly, now digs deeper, bringing up things like "asbestos removal" plots and "Pakistani Connection" Shaite.

Notice how rearely we hear "No Plane hit the Pentagon" anymore....lol

Keep trying

911coverup, could I see some links on the asbestos?

You won't be surprised to learn that he cut and pasted that whole thing from other sources. here's some of it in a google cache (I've decided that these retards aren't going to get more direct hits from me than absolutely necessary).

There was asbestos in the towers. No one seems exactly sure how much, but the most common figures are 40ish floors in tower two and up to 60 floors in tower one. Basically, they were designed with asbestos insulation in mind and the Port Authority changed materials when it became clear an asbestos ban was in the cards (we'll leave aside for now the question of whether the buildings would have collapsed had the PA been able to use asbestos on the higher floors).

Asbestos removal from skyscrapers is, as one might expect, a well-developed and managable task in cities with lots of high rises. Basically, one encapsulates it (covers it up) when one can and hires contractors to remove it when it can't be encapsulated. No, it was never contemplated to dismantle the buildings. Asbestos was removed from each floor as tenants moved out and new tenants rebuilt the interiors to their specifications. It's expensive and kind of a pain in the ass, but it gets built into rents. And, of course, it was built into the price Silverstein and the other bidders submitted when they were trying to win control of the buildings. Asbestos is seen as a huge economic issue because of the companies bankrupted by legal exposure, but the liability of end-users (in particular, buildings and landlords) is minimal, unlike with producers and intermediate users of the stuff. It's asbestos, not plutonium.

The answer to the question "How could Silverstein Group have been ignorant of this?" about asbestos and the other things which allegedly made the World Trade Center economically uncompetitive is "They were, and it was built into the bid."

Because Bush didn't tell him until after he already bought them. You know how dumb that guy is, right?

One day Silverstein went for his usual round of drinks in the oval office, and right around beer #12, he said "so, how do you like that WTC complex I just bought....".

Long story short, he ended up having to go get a bunch of insurance for it. Don't you hate it when that happens? You buy yourself a nice multi-billion dollar property, and then the very next day you find out that your buddy is planning to blow it up. It really ruins your day.
