Fox is getting annoying

Thanks for the creative narration. Very entertaining.

You're welcome. Shall we recap, so we're clear, crystal?

Quote from Gabfly1:

Well, he had certainly been warned of some reasonably specific danger well in advance by the outgoing administration. For whatever reason, presumably incompetence, Bush chose to ignore the gathered intelligence that had been presented to him before the fact.

"Many adherents of the 9/11 Truth movement suspect that United States government insiders played a part in the attacks, or at the very least knew they were coming and let them occur anyway."

A nice little nugget:

For Democrats - 35% of whom believed in 2007 that George Bush had advance knowledge of the attacks - it was an acceptable way to express their bigotry against Arabs and hatred of Bush by rejecting the notion that he - or any other president ever elected - would have acted swiftly if foreknowledge of such a devastating attack would have presented itself. (Note: Please don’t bring up Roosevelt’s supposed foreknowledge of Pearl Harbor - nonsense that has been royally debunked by a wide variety of historians.)

To acknowledge that President Bush would have tried and prevent the attack rather than allow it to happen (or, in the extreme Truther-created world, actively plan and assist it), would be granting the object of their deranged hatred the benefit of good intentions - an impossibility if you actually believe that Bush was the second coming of Hitler.

Should it surprise us that so many Republicans believe that Obama wasn’t born here or that so many Democrats believe Bush was evil enough to allow terrorists to attack us despite knowing in advance? Not when believing these theories allows one to see themselves as possessing knowledge that no one else is given the ability to understand. Interpreting the “facts” correctly - being able to connect the dots, no matter how scattered and fanciful they might be - is a way for the conspiracists to feel superior to the rest of us.

And they cloak this air of superiority in what they convince themselves is stellar research and hidden facts, with only those possessing superior insight able to discern the truth.

And so, once again, bugscoe goes off the deep end with indiscriminate accusations...Familiar territory.

A nice little nugget:

You still don't get it, do you> Of course, if you did get it, then you would have no raison d'être. Incompetence need not encompass either playing a part or "letting it happen." Incompetence is about not properly understanding the danger outlined in the intelligence briefings and ignoring their import. That is what Clarke addressed and is the only thing I discussed. And that was AFTER you raised the issue of 9/11 in this thread. All other commentary has nothing to do with me and everything to do with you. As usual.

What a load of crap. I raised the truther issue because of your idiotic rant against birthers, of which you can't see the correlation.

Incompetent or not, the issue still stands by you truthers that he had prior knowledge and failed to act.

Perhaps incompetence is what is preventing Obama from solving his birth cert issue? Do you accept that?

A birther accuses me of truthing when I only raised the issue of incompetence at his prompting. It all makes sense now.

You believe he had prior knowledge, simple as that. Perhaps you should add to Wiki that if you believe he failed to act on that prior knowledge because of incompetence, that excuses you from being a truther.

Then come back here and try again, Mr Truther.

The fact is, a sizable segment of both the left and right have allowed their hatred for a president to so cloud their judgment and befuddle their minds that they have descended into a pit of irrational idiocy, and are drowning in their own bilious delusions.

Quote from Tsing Tao:

typical gabby. ignore the basis of the argument and just try to turn people's words against them.

A pattern is seen by many. It's an easy money trade.

Quote from bugscoe:

Prior warning of imminent danger based on credible and accumulating intelligence is not quite the same as prior knowledge of a specific event. It seems you're the truther. I only referred to prior warning of imminent danger. You decided to go off the deep end in this thread with your usual flair.
