The MSM’s Peculiar Silence on Zeitgeist (Guess Which Network the Progressive Award-Winning New Age 9/11 ‘Truther’ Film Suggests Is ‘Manipulating’ News)

“The last thing the men behind the curtain want is a conscious, informed public . . .” — Zeitgeist (2007) “If conservativism is defined as standing athwart history yelling ‘Stop!’ Zeitgeist is looking the other way yelling ‘Go!’ Have you seen any major media reports on Zeitgeist? Why is that?” — John Saxton, “Three Exculpatory […]

Jared Loughner: Reefer Madness?

The Tucson massacre provides arch-Tory Peter Hitchens an excuse to stick his thumb in the eye of libertarians: The most likely cause is Loughner’s daily cannabis-smoking habit. The link between this drug and serious mental illness grows clearer every day. Wickedly, the dope lobby still tries to deny this and seeks to legalise it. Loughner has […]

Zeitgeist: 9/11 ‘Was an Inside Job’ Also: It Won a ‘Progressive’ Film Award and Is Based on ‘New Age’ Sources

For the benefit of David Dayen, the liberal blogger who claimed that the 2007 film Zeigeist is “right wing,” here is a screen-cap from the movie: The 911 Truth Criminal Elements within the US Government staged a “False Flag” Terror Attack on its own citizens, in order to manipulate public perception into supporting its agenda. […]

OMFG: Zeitgeist Is ‘Right-Wing’?

It’s the liberal Rorshach test — show them an inkblot and liberals scream, “Blame conservatives!” Loughner’s Conspiracy-Fueled Rampage Has Origins on the Fringe Right Now, you don’t have to believe that Sarah Palin purchased the gun for Loughner and whispered in his ear about targets to believe that the rhetoric on the far, far right played […]

Tucson’s James Fuller: ‘My Personal Agenda Promoting Social Justice’

James Fuller has been using his victimhood in the Tucson massacre to lash out at political scapegoats who had nothing to do with Jared Lee Loughner’s heinous crime. Fuller got himself arrested Saturday when he threatened a Tea Party leader, and people naturally are wondering, “Who the heck is this guy?” Fortunately, Fuller himself has told […]

‘The End of It Is Wicked Madness’

That’s a quote from the guy that Smitty sometimes calls “Ancient Commenter Solomon,” the Book of Ecclesiastes to be exact, cited in Amanda Read’s Washington Times column about Jared Lee Loughner: “What is government if words have no meaning?” Such was the question that Jared Loughner asked Representative Gabrielle Giffords at an event in 2007. […]

Jared Loughner’s Zeitgeist Obsession:
‘He Wanted to Watch It All the Time’

Kudos to the Arizona Republic for this follow-up reporting: Loughner began fixating on a documentary: “Zeitgeist: The Movie.” The movie is a bramble of conspiracy theories involving Sept. 11, the international monetary system, and Christianity. “There are people guiding your life and you don’t even know it,” the trailer for the movie intones. “He wanted to […]

Christiane Amanpour and ABC News Bring Healing to Tucson … Uh, Wait …

Warner Todd Huston at Publius Pundit recounts how the media’s “Kumbayah” moment worked out: One would think that once you were the collateral damage of an assassination attempt, you’d be much less apt to be issuing death threats of your own to people. Sadly, shooting victim J. Eric Fuller was not so sensitive as one […]
