Just Asking Questions

December 9th, 2008

I was watching one of the early James Bond movies the other day. It’s amazing how many men the evil villain can get to work for him. All of them loyal to a fault, willing to surly die for whatever plan the good doctor Evil has in store. Completely trustworthy never spilling the beans even on their days off. But how did he get these guys???? Ad in the help wanted page? Maybe they are from some temp service, a henchman for a day thing.

I think the problem with truthers is a lack of intelligence and imagination, they can’t see beyond the fairy tails told to them in countless YouTube videos and conspiracy theory sites. They are told the world is full of evil doers who possess powers beyond belief, just like in the movies. They never try and imaging exactly how one would go about doing what they propose thousands of people did on and before 9/11 in real life. They just wave it off with a “DUH.. I dun know” “I’m just asking questions” They don’t even have the imagination to ask smart questions. YEAH, YEAH I know your mom told you there was no such thing as a dumb question, but she lied to you.

A smart question would be “Why go through the impossible task of trying to arrange a controlled demolition of two buildings, both three times as tall as any known previous controlled demolition?” How would you even try and go about do such a thing? Call or email controlled demolition companies and ask if they could do a implosion job on such and such a date and hope they don’t turn you over to the authorities? You would have to be certain EVERY man from the demolition company is willing to do the job and keep quite after the fact. That kind of thing only happens in those 007 movies.

If you did find such a company how much would you have to pay them? Would that not cut into the profit? or Did the controlled demolition company do it Pro Bono? Would you not maximize your profit and minimize your risk my doing something much simpler and feasible like arrange fires that would damage the building beyond repair? After all there is no reason to believe the towers would have been rebuildable even if they had not collapsed. You could arrange a kickback on the dismantling of the building and it’s reconstitution! To anyone with half a brain doing the controlled demolition thing would be down right foolish. Far too complex, far too many people involved, too much of a chance something could go wrong.

davekyte 9/11 Truth

Kevin Trudeau banned from Infomercial for three years

December 9th, 2008

With 9/11 trutherism fast becoming a dead issue maybe it time to take on scams of a different kind. Huckster Kevin Trudeau with his conspiracy theorist laden outlook on traditional medicine, finance and weight loss has been banned by the FTC from making infomercials for three years and was fined $5 Million. Seems his dieting book was a bit deceptive. Judge Robert W. Gettleman of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois noted:

the diet protocol could not be done “easily” and “at home,” because the protocol described in Trudeau’s book requires colonics, which must be done at the office of a licensed practitioner, as well as injection of human growth hormone;

dieters could not “complete” or “finish” Trudeau’s four-phase program, because Trudeau’s book states that “Phase 4 is for the rest of your life”;

dieters could not eat “anything” they want, because Trudeau’s book prescribes that dieters following Phase 4 must eat “only 100% organic food,” and no “brand name” food, “fast food,” or “food served by regional or national chain restaurants”; and

the diet protocol did not require “no exercise,” because Trudeau’s book states that three of the diet’s four phases, including Phase 4, require walking one hour outside every day.

This of course is not the first time Trudeau has run afoul of the FTC, in 1998 they charged him with making false and misleading claims in infomercials for products that he claimed could cure addictions to heroin, alcohol, cigarettes, and help you lose weight as well.

In 2003 Trudeau claimed in infomercials that a product called Coral Calcium Supreme could cure cancer. The FTC again filed a contempt action and fined him 2 million. After that Kevin changed his tactics and stopped directly pimping snake oil but instead he started to write books…… Books that in essence compelled you to buy the same worthless cures he had been pushing for years.

Trudeau latest scam? Well like any good con man he has jumped onto the next big social problem, DEBT. And of course his “Expert” advice to those with money problems is to make MORE money and spend LESS money. Or you could follow Kevin’s lead and cheat lie and steal it.
