The straps on the tin-foil hat are on too tight, cutting off the circulation.

I personally believe the administration utilized 9/11 as a great excuse for the war in Iraq, something many in the administration wanted long before 9/11. But to claim 9/11 was orchestrated by the admin in some wild conspiracy makes the anti-Bushes look foolish.
Well said. I think that Bush has been an abject failure as a POTUS, particularly in the foreign policy arena, but I don't have some sort of hatred for him that causes me to blame him for everything from 9/11 to the Challenger. Hysterical support of conspiracy theories (or unquestioning admiration for any anti-Bush figure, for that matter) reads as nothing more than obsession with Bush.
