Conspiracy Theory w/ Jesse Ventura - 9/11

HaricotVert says...

Make up your mind. You said in your first post that "911 isn't mentioned in the list of offences he is responsible for. Why is that?"

Now you say Osama IS responsible. Complete 180 of your original statement, no? I've highlighted your contradiction for easy reading.

I take it you didn't read the citations at the bottom of the article?
I also take it that you didn't realize that nowhere in the article does Maddox even mention Osama bin Laden, nor him being "responsible" for the attacks. All he is doing is attacking the horrible presentation of so-called "evidence" that people tout as proof that there is a giant conspiracy surrounding 9/11. Even I don't believe Osama was directly responsible/the actual mastermind, though he clearly was the most visible figure promoting/taking credit for it. Is that reason to go after him? Fuck no. We already have the purported Al Qaeda "mastermind," who is in New York awaiting trial. My point is that a show like this DOESN'T HELP.
Glenn Beck was the one that posted the $20 bill-folding conspiracy that mentions Osama. Thanks for playing.
I'm no sheep, but I sure as fuck don't think that Jesse Ventura is on the right track with this show. Specially so long as he is going to take eyewitness accounts as evidence that something was covered up.

With regards to the two morons above and anyone else who cares to be flippant and disparaging of the views expressed in this show. i would like to remind you that you are forgetting that there isn't a prime suspect in the 911 attack. If you think Usama Bin Laden is then you might care to check out the FBI most wanted list re Usama. 911 isn't mentioned in the list of offences he is responsible for. Why is that? Why is the person who, according to the official story, was the mastermind, not wanted for this crime?
There is clearly a consiparacy around 911 and while I don't pretend to know the truth I sure as heck don't believe for a minute that the official story is the true story.


Um actually the FBI claims Usama is responsible. http://www.fbi.gov/congress/congress02/watson020602.htm
Thanks for playing indeed.

So you don't trust Madox, but what do you think of the ideas he puts forward? If he's a douchebag who's correct, he's still correct.

I would like links to credible accounts of destroyed evidence and Bush blocking the investigation.

Appealing to Maddox as an authority of anything, let alone 9/11, is one of the best ways in the world to lose an argument before it's begun.
9/11 was an inside job. Evidence was destroyed, and Bush blocked the investigation at every turn.

oxdottir says...

I love my mac. More than half the time it's up in bootcamp running XP, but my mac is the best PC I've ever had (and time machine backs it all up for me, too). (I use, surprise surprise, educational software that is only available on the PC, and a plugin for powerpoint that only works for normal powerpoint and not mac powerpoint.)

I mostly wanted to comment to say I could use appreciation for Maddox as a filter for people I actually want to ever speak to (appreciates maddox==we probably shouldn't talk much). This post made me go look through his egotistical ravings, and I want my time back. I suspect that reaction would fill him with glee, since I am clearly in the set of people he wants nothing to do with either. So we are both happy.

Randy Newman - Rednecks

castles says...

I agree with you that songwriters play roles. But Newman chooses to sing about a very volatile subject: racism in America. And instead of denouncing it, he takes the perspective of a bigot which complicates things.

Wikipedia has a great write up about the song:

Like several of Newman's songs, "Rednecks" is sung from the perspective of an interesting, non-neutral narrator — in this case a stereotypical Southern "redneck". In it he expresses his dismay at the way that the North looks down upon The South. In particular the narrator describes his ire at watching a "smart-ass, New York Jew"[1] mock Lester Maddox on a television program (this is an allusion to Maddox's 1970 appearance on The Dick Cavett Show whose eponymous host is actually a gentile). In response to his frustration at the television show, the narrator goes on to list, sarcastically, a litany of negative qualities that Southerners are reputed to have. He focuses especially on their reputed institutionalized racism, or, as the narrator puts it: "keeping the niggers down."

However, as the song ends, the narrator turns the knife on judgmental Northerners, calling them out as hypocrites. He achieves this by singing that the "North has set the nigger free," but pointing out, again sarcastically, that African-Americans are only "free to be put in a cage" (i.e., segregated) in various bad neighborhoods of big Northern cities — victims of, one assumes, the exact same racism that the Southerners are reputed to have. The song's final verse lyric is: "They [the Northerners] gatherin' 'em up, from miles around/Keeping the niggers down."

Like many Newman songs, it is difficult to tell with certainty how much or little Newman himself identifies with the narrator. Clearly, Newman desires to poke fun at smug Yankees that tar all Southerners with the same brush as ignorant, racist fools. But at the same time, he also pokes fun at the narrator himself, demonstrating the narrator's own clear prejudice ("smart-ass New York Jew") and his slavish adherence to his own kind ("he may be a fool, but he's our fool.") In a sense, "Rednecks" shares a lot with another famous Newman tune "I Love L.A." in that Newman both identifies with and seeks to make fun of the narrator at the same time.
