re: #469 Obdicut

Please name some ‘leaders of the left’ who were truthers. You said “many”, so I would like to see a good selection.

It is really off topic, and it was a crazy time. However there were other polls (not just the one that Charles feels the questions was biased).

So first I point to another poll, in this case Zogby.

Among self-identified Democrats, 42.6 percent chose an explanation other than the official one, as did 19.2 percent of Republicans and 30.5 percent of Independents.

Then you have Michael Moore getting an Academy Award for his movie where he infers that the war in Afghanistan was about an oil pipeline.

Then you have Michael Moore sitting next to Carter as his guest at the Convention.

Since Fahrenheit 9/11 was really a commercial for the Democratic cause, it seems likely that a number of Democratic leaders, possibly including presidential candidate John Kerry, would have endorsed the conclusions of the movie.

So we have the Rasmussen poll, and the Zogby poll to back it up. Plus the reaction to Fahrenheit 9/11.

I could do more…. but I don’t have the time right now.
