- JKap, on 10/09/2008, -0/+7This is an exceptional conversation with David Ray Griffin. If only Taibbi could offer his arguments without such liberal use of the ad hominem.
How Griffin has such a calm approach to overcoming the appeal to emotion over reason of those who "doth protest too much" regarding Griffin's clinical and dispassionate inquiry into the events of 9/11 speaks volumes to his character.
But what do I know? I'm just a "conspiracy theorist". Aren't you? - Ferre1, on 10/10/2008, -0/+5As a Duch citizen who has no emotional connection nor any personal interests whatsoever in whatever was behind 9/11, I found Griffin's arguments to be much more plausible than Taibbi's non-sensical ad hominem and strawman arguments. Griffin provides logic and evidence where Taibbi only provides insults and ad hominem attacks. To use his own kind of wording; Matt Taibbi displayed himself to be the idiot who believes in unplausible conspiracy theories.
- spaceman77, on 10/09/2008, -0/+5FBI says "no hard evidence linking Osama bin Laden to 9-11" so I guess it is still a theory.
- Whoopteedoo, on 10/10/2008, -0/+4I used to like Matt Taibbi. The many times I'd seen him appear on Real Time with Bill Maher had me convinced he was a serious journalist who wanted to expose the machinations of the Bush administration. After reading this three-part series of the debate between himself and Author David Ray Griffin, all I could see was that Matt Taibbi is an idiot.
It was almost amusing to see Taibbi's arguments devolve from reasoned to sarcastic, emotional straw man arguments, something that David Ray Griffin has never and would never resort to.
Compared to David Ray Griffin, Taibbi is an amateur, and completely out of his league. - JKap, on 10/09/2008, -0/+4P.S. Article is in three segments. Don't forget all three parts!
- Whoopteedoo, on 10/10/2008, -0/+3Anyone who buys the government's conspiracy theory (like Matt Taibbi apparently does) is crazy and ought to have their heads examined.
