Because it is more comfortable to blame 9/11 on Bush and the government than to deal with the fear and insecurity that the reality of Islamic Extremism triggers within them?

Well, I'm a liberal, kind of, and so is my wife. I'm a chemist with a special interest in metallurgy, and my wife is an architectural engineer. And our collective education and experience (over 30 years) tells us that the conspiracy theorists are wrong.
Our collective experience also tells us that the opinions of the vast majority of the worlds scientists that global warming is at least partially driven by human actiivity iis correct.
We base our opinions on scientific evidence, not political bs.

Um, no, it is actually more comfortable to think Muslim hijackers were responsible for 9/11 than to think that your own government turned on you.
I believe 9/11 was an inside job. Hey, I'd love to believe that our government was good and that 9/11 was perpetrated by nineteen hijackers--but there's this thing called a conscience that won't let me lie to myself.

For me I think it's more about how the event was handled before and after. I don't think Bush planned it. He's not that smart. But I wouldn't be surprised to learn that he agreed to look the other way. I believe it's a matter of public record that members of his cabinet were warned repeatedly of an impending terrorist attack and ignored the warnings. The flight instructor who reported students who wanted to learn how to fly, but not take off or land really should have provided a clue. And, of course, after 9/11 it was kind of hard to miss the blatant exploitation of fear that led us to attack two countries for reasons that I, for one don't understand. I believe there are terrorists in the world (not just Muslims) who would and probably will attack the U.S. again, but if the terrorists aim is to spread terror and chaos I don't believe the current administration is doing anything to dissuade them. On the contrary I think the argument could be made that G.W. is currently the world's most powerful and effective terrorist.

Nope. Conspiracy theories are not needed. Bush does a good enough job of lowering his approval ratings on his own. If only John McCain, or Colin Powell could have won the republician primary.

Their hatred for the President is so profound that they cannot believe that Osama bin Laden ADMITTED that he was behind 9/11.
In their twisted minds, for some reason, it's easier to believe that a man and party that they despise so intensely somehow concocted this idea and some fellow Americans agreed to it, rather than believe evil people admitted to committing this horrible act. EVEN after the fact that they have seen the horrible acts they have committed.

Yes,that's what they do. In their puppy dog tails and ice cream world ,terrorism by Islamic radicals doesn't exist no matter how many times we were attacked.

No need to make him a scapegoat. Bush messed up big time he did nothing to prevent 9/11 and he bugled the war on terror.
