Steven Jones vs Greg Palast

Now I would imagine that the typical left wing truther would agree with Greg Palast on about 90% of the issues, but on 9/11 denial they have as strong of a litmus test as to make the most fervent right-wing pro-life activist jealous. Greg Palast, even though he is a unabashed critique of the current administration, the guy wrote an entire book claiming the 2000 election was stolen for God's sake, has also recently criticized the 9/11 conspiracy movement, specifically Steven Jones.

There's no engineer! You can have ballroom dancers, you can have great actors, you can have poets, you can have physicists, there's a guy, Dr. Jones, his last big theory was that Jesus met with the Mayans after the resurrection. He's a complete fruitcake, and a complete, utter fraud. Mr. Jones, come at me.

Now Jones is hilariously threatening to sue. Can I serve as an expert witness at that trial?

Again, my lawyer friend describes your public remarks on INN on May 10, 2007, as "malicious defamation" and I think he is correct. Do you? You called me a "complete and utter fraud" and a "fruitcake." I maintain that I am of sound mind and not a fraud. However, I invite you to present your substantiation of these claims -- or retract your egregious defamations.

Hey Steve, I have called you way more things than a "complete and utter fraud" and I get no love. Although that Christopher Story guy did threaten to sue me in British court for libel once because of what I wrote on the Leo Wanta nuttiness.

They get into 9-11 Denial starting about 12 minutes into the interview, and Palast, who is far from one of my favorite people, comes up with some genuine bon mots as he dismisses controlled demolition and Steven Jones.

"He's a complete fruitcake and a complete fraud!"
