Take a look at Penn & Tellers 9/11 installment of their Bullshit series. As usual there is quite a bit of cussing but boy do they hit the nail on the head about these conspiracy wackjobs. It’s 10 minutes long but well worth your time:

Well…let’s think about this for a second shall we…
the same people who claim Bush is DUMB! Bush is STUPID!
Now think the man was brilliant enough to pull off one of the greatest conspiracies in the history of mankind and keep it completely under lock and key after more than five and a half years….
Yes, the US knew Bin Laden wanted to attack us all the way to the Clinton years. We were prevented from putting two and two together because of Clinton’s buddy Gorelick tho.
If 9/11 had to happen thank god it was under Bush’s watch, imagine the appeasement Gore would have applied. Too scary to even imagine.
Well there’s no question they heard it was going to happen (ie. bin Laden determined to attack in the US, PDB and the FBI flight school case), but I think Bush was honestly too engaged in vacationing at his ranch to put two and two together.
I don’t think Bush had anything to do with it, he’s not that good an actor.
But the fact that lots of people died doesn’t prove that the government was telling the truth.
It really does boggle the mind that people would think that one way or another Bush is responsible for the 9/11 attacks. That he either knew it was going to happen and did nothing, or caused it to happen is I N S A N E!
It’s sad when we are at war with REAL dangers out there that some people choose to delude themselves to this degree.
That guy at the beginning of the vid saying in an angry voice that “no one will convince me that Bush didn’t do it” makes me want to find the guy and smack him silly.
