Truther Movement in a "Gore wins 2000" World

The same basic bureaucratic incompetence that prevailed in the intelligence and diplomatic services in the United States that enabled the terrorists to enter the United States even though many of them were on terrorist watchlists and plan their operation unimpeded would've existed regardless of who was sitting in the White House.
And that is the only 9/11 truth that should be investigated. The 9/11 commission did an excellent job of covering the collective ass of the bureaucracy who's sins of omission lead to the attacks being successful.

Incidentally, that is the view of Ron Paul. He's not a 'truther'.
 
You'd still have a lot of the same crowd, though. A History Channel show on 9-11 Conspriacies (all of which were debunked by Popular Mechanics) showed a bunch of 'em as being a mix of the fringe left and the fringe right. There would be those claiming the Afghan War is all about building an oil pipeline from Central Asia to Karachi on the left, and the fringe right would be railing about increased security measures, the "interment camps being built", and all that nonsense. And some of the usual suspects would come out of the woodwork: the show mentioned a professor who was into the JFK assassination, and since he found nothing to move his pet conspriacy theory along on that, he jumped onto the 9-11 "truth" bandwagon. Look up the background of the "truthers" and you'll find a bunch of pretty strange weirdos. Isn't one of the "leaders" the same clown who tried pushing cold fusion a while back, and later got fired from BYU? Another guy who keeps claiming "controlled demolition" isn't even a structural engineer-he's a professor. Of African lit at the University of Wisconsin. It's the same with earth-shattering events: Pearl Harbor, JFK, the Apollo landings, etc. And some of the conspiro-nuts move from event to event: some of the Pearl Harbor ones had claimed there was a conspiracy to get the U.S. into WW I, having failed to prove that, they tried to show one for Pearl Harbor. (and they were FDR-haters as well)
