The case is made that Wellstone was assassinated. At this point in time, there isn’t much that I would put above the bush administration, or whatever shady cabal is currently heading our country. The case is made, and convincing enough for me. It’s hard for me to believe this sort of thing, but I think that I’m well on the way.
My willingness to take the assassination point of view does stem greatly from my bitter hate of the bush administration and my remorse over the death of Wellstone, so do watch out for the foam coming from my mouth.
An administration that would lie to send hundreds of thousands of young American men and women into harm’s way is not an administration that would hesitate to kill a single senator. 38
I sometimes feel like the authors fall back all to readily on the logical base they use to build up their arguments, that more emphasis is put upon the framework used to debunk than the actual debunking, but the motive alone of the Bush administration is enough to steer me right into the same conclusions. Further evidence gathered from eyewitnesses and inconsistencies in the established explanation only help firm things up in my head, and reduce my unwanted self image as that of a rabid nutcase conspiracy theorist.
...conspiracy theories have become a source of thrills for a bored subculture, one epitomized by its members’ reinterpretation of “accepted” history, deep cynicism about contemporary politics, and longing for some utopian future. 72
The last two fit me quite well, I would hope that not the first. I surely shouldn’t be bored, I have more things on my hands right now than I really want.
The further rigging of the NTSB’s ability to investigate plane crashes as criminal (the Attorney General can rule out terrorism as a possible cause in the NTSB’s investigation, further whatever the NTSB determines to be probable cause in a plane crash cannot be entered as evidence into a court of law. 132).
This sort of thing just makes my head hurt.
