Why We Know Iraq Is Lying

Unfortunately the New York Times went along with Bush's neocon B/S. Judith Miller was very annoying. When I saw her or Andrea Mitchell from NBC on TV I assumed I was being fed B/S. It was clear they had an agenda.

The neocons were themselves CT'ers, with their crazy "Axis of Evil" conspiracy talk and their convenient blaming of Iraq for any evil when it was necessary to promote their agenda.

Skeptics will use logic and follow the actual evidence and their knowledge of the source of the evidence rather than believing whatever may make them feel good.

Just because some conspiracies exist doesn't mean all conspiracy claims should be taken seriously. Many didn't fall for the neocon's B/S, or don't fall for the CT stuff that is often promoted by the not very skeptical in the Creative Speculation Group.
