    The mentality of conspiracy theorists, 9/11 deniers, "Jooish conspiracy" advocates, extremist libertarians and Ron Paul supporters, etc is best summed up as follows.

    Half of these guys never graduated mentally from the 6th grade and they just like to pretend that the world is like some James Bond movie because it feels "cooler" to think there's all these "sekret conspiracies" and "evil gobal elitist villians" operating behind the scene - et cetera - that's what they are, just dorky guys who like to role-play being in a James Bond film because it feels "cool" or "trendy" but have no serious interest it politics at all, beyond what Alex Jones posts on his pulp fiction site. They have about as much interest in politics a 7 year old kid playing "Batman" with his friends, has in "criminal justice".

    With that said, try not to give these guys too much attention - it just makes them feel more relevant than they are.

    For the most part, they are not operating behind the scenes. They are doing it all right in front of your face. You just have faith in the conspiracy and think things operate the way they have to operate when they are over your head.

    But to add some credence to this instead of just childish name-calling like what you've done. Can you tell me if the Federal Reserve operates in secret? Can you tell me if a partial audit, brought forth by Ron Paul, reveled some conflicts of interest, including favors for foreign banks? Can you tell me why Republicans all voted for a full audit?

    Can you tell me if Timothy Geithner admitted that he knew about the fixed LIBOR rate? Was that not a collusion of various banking interests to affect the entire global economy?

    Do you think the people closest to the 911 investigation had any problems with what they were finding? Here, I'll answer that one for you and you can learn something today.

    I agree with you on this one, to me personally the annoying thing about these guys is the way the distract from the world's real problems.

    Why do you label all paul supporters conspiracy theorists? Is it because he wants limited govt and a free market in currencies? Is it because he wants a full audit of the FED? Anybody who doesn't want a full audit of the FED is just asking for decades more of losses in purchasing power. Then you are left asking "why do prices keep going up? Why is gas at $5 a gallon? Why has my grocery bill doubled?" Must be magical forces at work causing all this huh?

    You are probably one of these people who believe that we actually have had deregulation right? That inflation is necessary? That wages are sticky to inflation?

    Yes...ron paul is a kook!! /sarcasm

    Now...go back to watching fox news and msnbc. They are both owned by the same entities that control both the republican and democrat parties. Wonder why nothing ever changes huh? Wonder why you are going to vote for a person that continues and starts new wars. Spends MORE money to keep open and renovate gitmo. Extends the patriot act. Extends the bush tax cuts. The list literally goes on and on and on. Now you tell me....WHO IS THE KOOK?????? The liberals who will show up to the polls to support your neo-con president.....obama. That is who.

    The same goes for romney supporters.

    Nah, I'm not saying that all Ron Paul supporters are conspiracy kooks - but a big percentage of them are. Half of the Ron Paul supporters on this board are the same guys saying that 9/11 was an inside job, the Holocaust is a hoax, etc - that guy is some kind of conspiracy theorist magnet it seems.

    There was nothing to rebut. Speaking of 6th grade mentalities. All you ever do is attack libertarians(which is foolish by itself for obvious reasons with you being conservative and everything) and you never debate the issues. Never. Dodge. Insult. Dodge. Insult. I envision mentally abused person, by wife, boss, etc, just a pushover goes on internet to hate.

    So you attack conspiracy theorists and then come up with some theories of your own. Face it, this whole thread and mentality of your ilk serves as nothing more than a substitution for not thinking. When our representatives swear in we have no system that prevents evil from prevailing. Get a clue.

    All you did was insult a group of people without any sort of substance, which isn't that surprising. You're a Romney supporter. Anyone who can't see through the left/right fraud is pretty (*)(*)(*)(*) stupid.

    Well, probably the biggest "conspiracy theory" out there, meaning widest in its implications, is that of the New World Order. When one accepts that the NWO exists, other incidental conspiracies suggest themselves. Now, the problem about the NWO is that so many rich, powerful people keep coming out and admitting it, which really makes people like Spacecricket's job difficult.

    David Rockefeller (from his memiors):

    George H.W. Bush (calling for the New World Order on 9/11):

    Henry Kissinger (NYTimes Article: The Chance For A New World Order):
    http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/12/opinion/12iht-edkissinger.1.19281915.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1

    It makes it kind of hard to deny the New World Order when those who have the means and motive (waiting only for the opportunity) just won't shut up about how much they want a global government.

    The New World Order has put themselves out there, publicly. I don't even see how it's disputable at this point.

    See...that is exactly what ron paul is up against. He not only has a hard time breaking through with the large corporate owned media but has been put in the same category as many conspiracy theorists. He never stood a chance.

    Paint with a broad brush much?

    Over-generalize much?

    Politically motivated much?

    Clueless much?

    Who says I'm not voting? I showed you who I am voting for, you are the one who's voting for some meaningless jackass, not me.
