Pigs On The Wing

pigsonthewing.pngWow. This is really a “pigs-flying” moment. I’m about to link approvingly to an article at Huffpo.

In this article, published at Huffpo, the editor of Skeptic magazine Michael Shermer tells readers of the harassment that he has received from 9/11 Twoofers ever since his magazine found their claims to be absurd.

Also admirable is the fact that Shermer attacks Holocaust deniers and their theories. He rightly holds contempt for both groups, the trooooofers and the Holocaust denier idiots.

Well, without further ado:

9/11 “Truthers” a Pack of Liars

Ever since Skeptic magazine published an investigative article on the 9/11 “Truth Movement” and analyzed their claims, which were found wanting, I have been hounded by the so-called 9/11 “truthers” because I am the editor of the magazine and therefore am suppose to be a “skeptic” of the official explanation for 9/11.

In fact, throughout January I have been on a book tour for The Mind of the Market, my book on behavioral economics and evolutionary economics, and at every event during the Q & A one of these “truthers” pretends to ask a question about economics but then quickly shifts to a rant about what “really happened” on September 11, 2001.

Read the rest at… Huffpo.

More of the troooofers’ theories are debunked over at the Skepticwebpage, eSkeptic

If you are a twooofer reading this, all I can say is…

Stop being sheep:

    Amazing, I wish others on the Left would start rejecting the troofers/Holocaust deniers. I won’t hold my breath, but bravo to this man for standing up to these losers.
    Watch the Left turn on this brave person.

    Yeah, I was going to post this video:

    Pink Floyd- Pigs On The Wing (Part 1 and 2) Video

    But I didn’t think it would be right, considering I don’t really care what happens to Hufftards. So I went with Sheep, because the the twoofers are braindead idiots.

    As for Pigs, and Dogs, well, those would be folks I admire! ;)

    Trajan,
    The Left already does reject those nuts. See, for example:

    Hmm. I thought the limit was three links per post.

  10. Posted February 1, 2008 at 1:17 am | Permalink

    It is now, I had the cut off point at 3, which meant that posts with 3 links or more would go to spam. I switched it to 4 though. Sorry about that. :P

    Sergei,
    Yes there are Leftists who reject these guys. However many websites like Think Progress all have troofers and many Leftists agree with them.

    The 9/11 Truth movement is a lot like Ron Paul’s campaign. It has a huge internet presence, but that does not translate to a whole lot of actual people.
