One I haven't heard before. Apparently one of the latest freeper
memes is that Obama wanted an ecological disaster to happen so he could regulate oil again and push his energy plan. But, he dragged his feet first 20 days or so before he told them to try and cap it and now it's outta control and it's his fault.

Just heard that from coworkers in the next cubby. I'm leaving my earphones cranked up the rest of the day so I don't have to hear these guys.

1. If you bother to respond
And I don't recommend it, but I'd probably say something along the lines of, "Hmmm, now that you put it that way, the whole 9/11 attack thing makes perfect sense, based on what followed." Wear a rain poncho, though; you don't want that squib pop of their head exploding to get on you.

2. Good one
Because BP had no idea that they were supposed to cap it. They had to wait for Obama to tell them to. Right. Makes perfect sense. :banghead:

You know, never mind Obama's birth certificate--I want to see the ones belonging to these freepers. I need to know that they were actually born and not vomited up out of the bowels of hell.

3. One of our local wingnuts posted that right after the explosion
Interestingly the other wingnuts shot him down. One said Obama wasn't that smart. :wow:

4. Yup, and variations on the theme
The tin hat crowd has him actually starting the fire.
There's the birther crowd that has him getting his "Kenyan friends" to do it.
There are the nuts that have the coast guard "pushing" the oil towards Misssissippi.
And there is the mixture of the many nuts that see coordination between this and the coal mine disasters.

5. I heard that a couple of days ago. Far fetched even for the most committed paranoids. nt
