Aside from the reason you cited for the left, finally, telling the troofers they are morons, the other reason they will go after them is risk. Which is also why leftist attacked Romney’s Mormonism and will not stand up against Islamic violence.

As a leftist stated on the Hugh Hewitt show, Mormons will not physically attack anyone for bashing them, Islamists will riot in the streets and murder at the drop of a hat (or cartoon, speech, zoning commission, arrest, and so on). The same is true for 99% of the Troofer movement. They rant and rave about some big conspiracy, but they will not kill anyone who disagrees with them, so the leftists are safe in attacking them, just as they are safe in attacking conservatives.

Of course, I can see where they’d want to trivialize these guys while Bush is in office so that they don’t attach themselves to a potential Democrat President and attack them for not exposing Bush’s conspiracy if a Democrat manages to win the office.

These same voices were silent during the last two elections while tripe like this ran rampant on campuses and other indoctrination centers. So no, I won’t give them compliments for doing what they should have done 4 years ago.

It is good to see there is at least one thing that both the right and far left can agree on.

Actually, the portion of the left wing that believes this tripe makes them irrelevant and therefore they have eliminated themselves from any serious debate—–kinda like the UFO syndrome.

Truthers don’t eat as many Twinkies.

I’d still like to hear from some Michael Moore fan as to what the difference is between fans of F911 and Truthers.

“I wonder what makes these people tick?”
FEAR

Well, sort of. What makes these people tick is their desire to control (lead?) others through the use of fear. They first have to make you afraid and they use things such as the government being involved in 9/11 to instill the fear, then they provide you with a path … a group … a group of others with a similar fear. And that is where they really get started. They aren’t so interested in “raising awareness” as they are convincing people that this is so and then directing them to a group that has a political or social agenda. They use the fear to channel the energy. it’s the “hook” they use to guide their sheep.
