Well, I may be a slacker, but I guess I'm not part of the Slacker generation. Too damn old. I look at these conspiracy theories and try to imagine the perpetrator actually going through the thought process of deciding to do it. Would Bush risk his presidency, his reputation, actually, his life, for this? Would he feel so comfortable in his power that he could imagine keeping something like this covered up? If so, would he have the personal conviction to roll such high stakes dice? And, if so, would the minimal gain be worth the huge risk? Sorry, can't buy it. Not because I trust him, or because I'm naive, or because I can't see someone doing something like this, but because I don't think he buy into the risk/reward ratio.
