What a relief! 9/11 Truther demonstrators not quite as bad as Westboro Baptist Church

But after 9/11 Memorial Cermonies it's back to usual

From Eric Dondero:

Well even Hitler loved his dog.

And so it is with the 9/11 Truthers. At least they have a modicum of common sense.

From the NY Times "9/11 ‘Truthers’ to Tone Protests Down, for a Day":

“No bullhorning during the memorial.”

That’s always been the rule of thumb among “truther” demonstrators at ground zero on Sept. 11, out of respect for relatives of victims of the terror attack, said Mike Skuthan, 32, a Web designer from Long Island who attends the demonstrations every year.

But after this Sunday’s memorial, Mr. Skuthan said, the bullhorns and signs will again be brought out and the groups will walk from one location to another in Manhattan chanting their message and engaging passers-by to help them call for a new investigation into the attacks.

“You have the usual chants — ‘9-11 Truth Ends Wars,’ or ‘Two planes, three buildings,’ ” Mr. Skuthan said. “The popular one this year will probably be, ‘Ten years, no justice.’ ”

The Times also mentions the emergence of "moderate Truthers":

Members of the so-called 9-11 Truth movement range from extreme conspiracy theorists who believe that the Bush administration engineered the attacks to consolidate power, roll back civil liberties and help oil mogul friends. But then there are more moderate factions that simply insist that top government officials know more about the attacks than they have acknowledged, and then used then used the attacks as a pretext for invading Iraq.

Editor's comment - Funny, that "moderate Trutherism" sounds vaguely familiar to the line promulgated by certain activists on the libertarian left.
