You just aren't passionate about it. If it was impacting your life you would care about it. The events that took place on 9/11 have greatly impacted the United States. It is not the same country it was. It is not a land of freedom. What took place on 9/11 allowed the greatest power grab in U.S. History, and probably second only to what the Nazis did before WWII. The only way these things will get turned around is if the truth is exposed.

I think the biggest problem in this and many issues in the media saturated (internets, blogs, etc) world we now live in is the blur between fact and conjecture.

Do yourself a favor, and read a book. If you don't like the media you're reading, and find it to be full of ****, get another source that appeals to your sensibilities. I personally don't like reading the web any more. Unless I am trying to find a quick cross reference of information I would prefer to read books on the subject matter, especially ones that take a critical look at events and follow the paper trail. I'm not talking Ann Coulter-esque fantasy garbage, which quite a few of the CT sites and theories themselves are, I am talking about stuff that is indeed cross referenced and sourced through multiple channels.

You guys can believe what ever you want. I don't believe it was an inside job, and my best reason for that is pure and plain logic. There are too many jouralists working for credible agencies looking to make a name for themselves to leave this topic alone if it was as cut and dried as the conspiracy theorists make it out to be. All of these guys choose to leave it? How many people are we talking 10,000? 20,000? more?
Doesn't add up.

And who are these journalists that are working for credible agencies? I can't name a journalist who has any balls any more. Not after what happened to Rather. The agency itself still has to okay the content to print it and to air it. With the fear that is prevalent in this country you are not going to see anyone take the risk. No one rocks the boat anymore, as its not patriotic.
BTW... there are some very good books on the subject, that take a critical approach to the evidence. As I said earlier, read one. Put down your Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity and pick up a book that uses some critical thought for a change.
