Who said anything about a conspiracy?

YOu have, about a zillion times.

Bush and his clowns were not up to it. They did take advantage of the opportunity - and then promptly squandered it.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

But not in this debate about the government sticking a gun in the public's face and the public, via their elected representatives, promptly coughing up.
That's a dynamic that is very real, that actually happened, and which has nothing to do with any conspiracy, real or imagined. Whence I didn't mention it at all in this debate. You brought it up.
Bush and his clowns were not up to it.
But a bunch of bearded goat fuckers were? Come on, get real: if "Bush and his clowns were not up to it" then that bunch of goat fuckers most certainly weren't!
You cannot both have your cake and eat it.

"They did take advantage of the opportunity" doesn't even begin to describe what they actually did: they robbed you, the American citizen/taxpayer of a fucking trillion bucks! Waving that 9/11 gun in your face!

And, what everybody skirts around is that the national debt is still hemorrhageing today! Because the wars are still going on today. The tally is still diving everyday in an uncontrolled spiral. You don't have to be a genius to predict how that must inevitably end.
Remember why the USSR collapsed? They overspent on armaments. The kitty was totally empty after 70 years of tanks and jets and missiles and nukeler subs, etc. etc. The west, predominantly the USA, simply outspent 'm in 'the arms race'.
Well, it looks like the USA have now outspent themselves too!
In an arms race with iPod wielding camel jockeys... :lol:

See? There's humor even in misery!

R/S is one of those 9-11 Truther nuts, I'm afraid.

Next he'll be complaining about Obama's birth certificate!

Nope, he doesn't need a foreign birth certificate to fuck things up further. He does so admirably with an American birth certificate.
