You know, most "conspiracy theories" aren't kind to the government, so it's a real irony that the one which has garnered the most believers in the past few years completely supports the myth of our government as benign and paternal ... those characteristics completely embodied in its figurehead, "Bush the Messiah (the Saviour)."

In this wildly-far-fetched fantasy, Bush rallied the people behind him after the WTC attacks to combat the evil forces of the Al Qaeda Terrorist Super Army which was in league with the mythical "Axis of Evil" which included North Korea's Kim Jong-Il, The ruling Mullahs of Iran and the Butcher of Iran, Saddam Hussein.  Our invasion of Afghanistan prevented the formation of an invincible terrorist force that would have attacked, conquered, and occupied the United States and forced us all to live in slavery and never eat bacon again!

According to this theory, we owe our freedom and our security (as well as our unquestioning loyalty) to one Godly man alone, George W. Bush.

What a load of crap ... but a lot of people still believe it.

What does that say about our nation?
