Cognitive Dissonance at 9-11 Blogger?

After months of hearing the 9-11 Deniers like Jason Bermas and Alex Jones tell us their favorite candidate is Ron Paul, it's kind of amusing to see the disjointed reactions now that Paul is getting blasted by Michelle Malkin, Fox News and others as a 9-11 Truther.

Well, the folks at 9-11 Blogger cannot decide on what position to take on this. Do they embrace the description?

Ron Paul is attacked because he has supported 9/11 Truth.


Do they defend him from the vile canard that he is a Truther?

They have managed to skew Ron Paul's debate comments and connect them to a story about 9/11 Truth so they can attack them both at once.


Paul's comments were offensive, but probably did not rise to the level of Trutherism. But he is certainly the darling of many of the Deniers, and his comments earlier about the 9-11 Commission being a coverup and calling for a new investigation make him certainly a borderline 9-11 Denier.
