*If* it ever proven that the Bush administration was involved with 911?
will neo-cons, the GOP and fundies still support him and think he's the best hero since Lincoln, or will they condemn him as the traitor he would have been?
Please, answer the question as it is posed. Don't add your own remarks to change the question or negate it. That's why the first word is *IF*.

I think it WILL be like the german people who supported Hitler, after the 2nd world war, they will have to come to terms with their blindness.
Dubya's policies are not new :-
“Naturally the common people don't want war; neither in Russia, nor in England, nor in America, nor in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”

Like other areas in which there have been major failures as a result of the Bush administration’s foibles and corruption, if such a conspiracy were to turn out to be true, someone within that administration, or in some part of the government, will take the fall, thus distancing Bush from the scandal. There is great precedence for this pattern of events to take place. Remember the resignation of the CIA director and the other numerous resignations that came as result of embarrassing stupidity at all levels of the government?
In any other organization, where accountability matters, the heads are frequently punished for the mistakes, or intentional misdeeds of those they appoint. Its funny how in areas where it would matter the most, where lives are at stake, no one of power is culpable of any wrong doing, with the exception, of course, when acts of personal sexual indiscretion become public knowledge. Lord knows how important that is to national security.
What I find odd is that Republicans are more than willing to give Bush credit, when seemingly things are going well, and then state how immaterial he was to a particular governmental failure.

The Neo Cons Reds will support what ever they are told in the Government run churches.
Your what if will never happen. Any Bush involvement was so far removed it would be like finding Goldy Locks in a Jackson Pollock painting.

Academic circles have already proven that it had to be an inside job of some type. Try reading David Ray Griffen (professor of theology) or Steven Jones (professor of physics at BYU). It won't matter though. If you can't bring down Bush on being good friends of Ken Lay and selling his stock conviently right before the collapse, you're not gonna get him for anything. But we won't talk about that because it would be treason;)

Don't worry about the "if", it's not going to happen. There has never been any great catastrophe in the country that wasn't immediately followed by accusations of govt. involvement.
That seems to be the way the political game is played. Never pass up an opportunity to accuse the other party of being guilty of everything that harms the country.
With most of our politicians it's party first, who cares about the country ?

I think it's obvious you already have your opinions (as outlandish as they are) so why bother asking? It's obvious by your childish need to use name calling (ie. neo-cons, fundies) Rather than just asking if his supporters would would still support him. I think it's funny that people like you tend to fancy yourselves as 'open minded', yet it's only when someone believes similar things that you do. To everything else, you're as close minded as those "neo cons and fundies"
Thank God, I'm a moderate and not ruled by idiot liberal and conservative politicians.

Republicans are extremely patriotic, sometimes to a fault. IF it was in bizarro world, and the administration was involved. We'd kill him as fast as we kill terrorists in the real world.
But that being said, Elmjunburke has the best answer of all. Congratulations on such a well thought out and concise point.

of course they wouldn't , that is a ridiculous conspiracy theory anyway . They have the 9/11 commission report to read online , they did a ton a research , they researched their research . If you read it you will know that there is no way bush was invloved . not that you do , i know this is just a question

There alrady is more than enough evidence to support your hypothesis, and it is simply denied or ignored, great lengths have been gone to in order to ensure that the states power over the individual is total, and regardless of "proof", they will continue to believe that it is acceptable to use coercion to achieve their goals.

Sure, people who want to support other people minimize and excuse their bad behavior. People who don't want to support someone minimize and overlook their good behavior. It doesn't matter what a person does as long as they have enough people willing to rationalize away what they do. Why do you think the Catholic church is still standing?
