I bet you think Larry Silverstein made money off the attacks, too, don't you...sigh....
You thought wrong. My issues are with the investigation of 9/11. The fact is, none of us here will really know what happened and who did it.

I'm not really sure why one needs to be a Republican to question the validity of a statement made by a crackpot. I'm not a Repuclican but somehow I can't seem to give much merit to the ramblings of some crackhead screaming at the sidewalk.

I chose mechanics simply because I quickly realized that I could make a lot more as a shop owner than relying on fickle grants in a lab. I am somewhat familiar with combustibles. Just because a particular chemical ignites at a particular temp doesn't mean that's the temp at which it must burn. Please remember that it will also ignite at higher temps too. Go figure.

Anyway, as entertaining as the video may be, it fails to answer my query as to why one must be a Republican to question the source.

Well, there's "questioning the source" - and then there's deflecting, dodging, denying and discrediting a source.

Which do you practice the most?

Guess we'll have to back this rig up.

You could try backing up enough to answer my question.

The only source I'm questioning is you and why you think only republicans question the sources.

Again I ask, why does one need to be a republican to doubt an unreliable source of information? Since I'm not a Republican and do indeed doubt crackpots, I'm having difficutly getting your point. To be honest, you're starting to sound like the guy screaming at the sidewalk. If you think talking in what you believe to be clever circles and vague attempts at personal insults is adding to your credibility, I'm afraid you're mistaken.

Exactly what is your basis for this conclusion? You're trying to backpedal and claim this is wandering off topic but it's you that dragged this thread off, not me.

That is a tortured conjure of your own making.

You appear to be, if not a Republican, then a wanker of your own adopted illusions.

Soooo, the admission by UBL was not good enough for you? The voices of the Hijackers not good enough? Calls from the passengers, not good enough?

So instead of answering the question, you're going to revert again to insults?

You seem to be under the misguided impression your juvenile taunts are getting under my skin. I'm actually amused at your interesting and unfortunately not-so-unique point of view.

I'm not even arguing against your beliefs that 9-11 was an inside job. I'm arguing about your contention that only Republicans question crackpots when if you understood Americans as well as you think you do, you'd realize the opposite is true. Here in the US, it's generally the fringe element of the card carrying right who seem more inclined to subscribe to conspiracy theories. This is a fact that your tabloids haven't informed you of.

Since you don't seem to have an actual answer or are simply too thick to comprehend my question and feel the need to hide your density with personal insults and insinuations that you seem to have miraculously plucked from your anus.....please feel free to stoop to the final dying gasp of any lost argument and comment on my grammar and /or spelling because it would seem that's all you've got.

Here's a tip: Next time you decide to have a war of wit, don't go unarmed.
