Bill Press Shows How Conspiracy Theorists Work

When you are a conspiracy theorist, nothing – literally no-thing – will convince you that you are wrong. New information is simply fitted into you worldview or dismissed as part of the conspiracy to discredit your ideas.

When Osama releases a video showing him congratulating the 9-11 hijackers, to the committed conspiracy theorist, it’s a movie produced by the Evil Bush Administration to fool the people.

And it’s not just Bush, wasn’t it the Chinese government who claimed that the moon landings were actually filmed on a sound stage in Hollywood?

So now we have Bill Press, one of the true believers in the “Rove Conspiracy to Out Plame” What is his reaction to the admission that Richard Armitage was the source of the original leak? Why it proves to him that the conspiracy was wider than even he though!

Not kidding, read here:

So where’s my apology to Karl Rove?

That’s what many readers want to know: Having accused Karl Rove of leading a conspiracy within the Bush White House to reveal the identity of undercover CIA agent Valerie Plame, don’t I owe Rove an apology now that former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage has admitted that he, not Rove, was Novak’s primary source?

Well, here’s my answer: Hell, no! Armitage’s involvement doesn’t disprove the Rove conspiracy. It only proves it was a lot wider than we originally thought.
