Actually - you can start with SI - read the "Bush did 9/11 thread."

Madeline Albright - I don't consider her extreme, in general, said yesterday - that OBL was in captivity and will be announced as the next political surprise.

The mechanics of doing this and hiding the fact that it was done are so difficult and the risks so pervasive that it just bends credulity.

I will admit that I'm no expert in naming extremists as I tend to ignore them, realizing the system will take care of them, relegating them to the dung heap. I feel the same about Rush as I do with about those on the other side. Like the Supreme Court said about pornography, I know extremism when I read/see it.

The nuts on many SI threads are extreme and would be deemed "left wing" by those who need labels.

As for Nadar - I always admired his crusades on behalf of the consumer and shareholders. I believe he marginalized himself by assuring Gore's defeat. I'd like to see a Green Party, but one concerned with environmental, consumer and small shareholder rights. Once the need to grab other "left-wing" issues presented itself, Nadar showed that he just couldn't hack it.
