who are too smart to believe the ultimate CT, which was the story fabricated by the Bush gang almost immediately after the tragedy occurred.

See how Ari the Liar and Propagandist-in-Chief reflexively used that smear to try to discredit an actual journalist. Almost as if he wrote it himself!

I think he gave himself away completely by doing that. I always knew it was probably a bought and paid for smear campaign to silence people's questions, but I wondered who was behind it. I had suspicions, but Ari just put himself out there and answered my questions. What an idiot he is. He and Bush were well matched. They both faithfully 'catapulted the propaganda' for their bosses.
