Debra Medina: 9-11 Troofer for Texas Governor?

Medina claims here:

I was asked a question on the Glenn Beck show today regarding my thoughts on the so-called 9/11 truth movement. I have never been involved with the 9/11 truth movement, and there is no doubt in my mind that Muslim terrorists flew planes into those buildings on 9/11. I have not seen any evidence nor have I ever believed that our government was involved or directed those individuals in any way. No one can deny that the events on 9/11 were a tragedy for all Americans and especially those families who lost loved ones.

But this is plainly a dodge. She was not asked if Muslim terrorists flew planes into the buildings, she was asked about whether the government was involved in any way in bringing down the World Trade Center, and she did the Troofer dance about how there are a lot of legitimate questions.

More discussion here:

Oh well, I think she’s done. There’s no coming back from a blunder like this.

Ed Morrissey agrees:

If Medina believes that, then she hasn’t paid attention to the answers that have long been in the public domain. If she doesn’t, then she’s terribly inept at handling media interviews. Either way, Medina’s responsible for her answers and their implications, not Glenn Beck or anyone else. Any candidate who thinks that a nutcase conspiracy theory about the US government destroying the WTC is within the realm of reasonable speculation is a candidate that richly deserves the obscurity she will shortly enter.

She's got the Alex Jones endorsement:


Hat tip to restey9690 and NWO is bunk in the comments on the last post.
