The Reality-Based Community? Part LXIHere's a
bland little article about a 10-year-old girl winning a second-place art prize. True, it's the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance's "9/11 Truth for Peace and Justice", which gives you an idea of where they're coming from. (Hint: "X and Justice" = "X and Socialism" in 99% of all cases).
Here's a look at the second place winner's entry:

Hmmm, we'll be kind here and not critique Hannah's obvious artistic skills. Check out the grand prize winner:
It's helpful that there's a fighter plane in the picture about to hit the second tower. If only the artist could have come up with some way to graphically represent another plane
not hitting the Pentagon. Note as well that these two "award-winners" rely on text within the art itself in order to explain the meaning.
Hugh Hewitt said today on his show that bad journalism chases out good journalism. Looking at this dreck, I'd say that one of the things that bugs me most about the Left is their absolutely appalling taste. There's nothing really engaging or thought-provoking here; this is art meant to confirm the world view of the idiots who like it, not to challenge the world view of those who don't.
This is
crackpot MIHOP at its finest. More
stupid art here.
Here's a picture of the
tinfoil hat crowd behind the contest:
And, lest you think that all the moonbattery is about 9-11, did you know that the wackos are now
questioning the July 7 bombings in London? Be sure to check out the informative timeline:
2004
Bob Kiley becomes Commissioner of Transport for London.
Kiley worked for the CIA between 1963 and 1970, then starting to work as an assistant director at the Police Foundation in Washington D.C.
During 80s he was Chairman and CEO of the New York City Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA).
It's obvious, that Kiley's function is either to coordinate, allow or tolerate moles into the Transport System who supervise and coordinate the upcoming 7/7 attacks.Well, now that you mention it, that is rather obvious, isn't it? Maybe we could call those CITHOP, AITHOP and TITHOP, for short?
Michelle Malkin
has more examples of this group's tired "art".
And if you want to play the Kevin Bacon game, it's not hard to get from this group to Cindy Sheehan, for example. Carol Bruillet appears to be the leader of 9-11 Truth for Peace & Justice;
here's an article where she describes a march in Washington against the World Bank shortly after 9-11:
At one point we stopped in front of the World Bank building (I recognized it from earlier demonstrations), where our path was blocked by police. The pagans decided to circle up and dance. Then Starhawk suggested another ritual- exorcising the World Bank.Starhawk is a Wiccan who is a
"training partner" of Lisa Fithian. Lisa Fithian is is
basically running the show at Camp Casey.
