(17,505 posts)Well, there are conspiracies....and then there are dumb-ass conspiracies. To know the difference one must think things through...and know something.
I mean believing Global Warming is a hoax is not the same as believing, say, Art Pope has bought the state of North Carolina.
Believing Obama is a secret nefarious socialist is not the same as believing the GOP Congress is deliberately trying to make things worse...or at least not get any better.
One must know that for global warming to be a hoax, thousands and thousands of scientists from all over the world are in it for...what I don't know. And you must know what socialism means and is before you can accuse someone of it.
On the other hand, it's easy to find real evidence for the Art Pope and GOP Congress stuff.
