    I suspect Stella Tremblay is a government conspiracy planted by the Obama administration to make the Republicans look crazy.

      She is tweeting Glen Beck that right now, she didn't even know it was so until you posted the comment right here, we are literally creating Stella's universe!

    Clearly the government is trying to take away our pressure cookers. You'll pry my quick and easy risotto from my dead hands, you bastards!

      Okay I finally signed in and accepted the kinja terms of service just so I could star this (I'm not even sure what that does). Golden.

    This is what happens when you condemn smart, educated people as being "elites" and reward ignorance.

    I'm always amazed when people think the U.S. government is competent enough to successfully pull off something like this. It's like they've never tried to renew a passport or apply for Social Security benefits.

      I know, right? The government can barely tie its shoes. I can understand accusations of incompetence, but efficient deviousness is way, WAY outside of its scope.

      "There is no group of people this large in the world that can keep a secret. I find it comforting. It's how I know for sure that the government isn't covering up aliens in New Mexico."

    I live in Chicago and was listening to Garry Meier on WGN Radio on my evening commute home today. A caller called in and started rambling on about patsies, false flags, etc. I really can't believe how many people buy in to these conspiracy theories. It's almost mainstream. How has this level of paranoia reached common thought?

    I'm just having a really hard time comprehending how educated, middle age to upper middle aged (50-65) people have polarized some quickly. These are people that worked in engineering and medicine and went from slight right-moderates to not believing in climate change, believing there's a socialist agenda in government, thinking the government is going to take away all civil liberties.. It's almost like these people have turned in to zombies.

    It's completely fucked.

      It's worse for the younger crowd (18-25). I swear, I will never understand my generations obsession with the idea that there are rappers and athletes in the Illuminati.

      It boggles my mind to the point where I want to drink Bleach.

      It's just really bizarre.

      Go on CNN.com and read the comment section of any article that has to do with the Boston bombing or Obama.

      The number of people that think this was an inside job — based on no other evidence than some Alex Jones blog posting — is concerning.

    I have a nagging suspicion we're going to find out that Tamerlan's wife was not unaware of what he was up to. She may not have believed he'd go through with it, she may not have known exactly what the plan was. But I just know I won't be surprised if the Feds figure out that she knew he was up to something deadly and stayed quiet out of obedience to her dipshi— I mean husband. I can't say why I feel like this, but it's just a feeling I've had since seeing the first interviews last Friday with her old friends and roommates, who all said she essentially did whatever he told her. It may be something like Stockholm Syndrome, but I'll be surprised — very happily — if it really turns out she was totally shocked at all.

      I don't know. I knew this poor girl once ... her husband was raping girls in the morning before work. Then, he went home at night to his pregnant wife. After he was finally arrested, and thank the lord because he was escalating and becoming more violent, she was bewildered and horrified. It can happen.

      Yeah, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying she must have known just because she was his wife. Spouses can keep big secrets from each other really well sometimes. There is just something about this situation that makes me feel in my bones like, at best she is unsurprised, and at worst knew he was up to no good but elected not to tell anyone. I just hope the cops give her the third degree and find out what she did or didn't know.

    So is she saying that Woodrow Wilson ghost supported Hitler from the grave?

    Man o man, she's giving Patton Oswalt a run for his money in that committee hearing.

    The comments on her post on Beck's facebook page are hilarious. Most of them are angry at her and call her everything from an idiot to an embarrassment. Probably not the response she was hoping for. Oh one guy agreed with her. Although he lost me when he said the CIA plotted to kill Kennedy and his only source was Wikipedia.

      Of course, the CIA didn't kill Kennedy - Bell Helicopter did. *

      My source is Oliver Stone. So there.

    This reminds me of that Verizon (I think?) commercial where the girl is meeting her internet date who claims to be a French model. "Everything on the Internet is true." "Uh, bon-jore."
