Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be moonbats

Somehow, this doesn't actually surprise me.

I was listening last night to the Monday podcast of conspiracy-mongering nutcase Alex Jones' show. He promised a surprise guest later in the program. This turned out to be none other than country music legend, hippy-dippy peace activist, and fellow Austinian Willie Nelson.

The day it happened, I saw one fall, and it was just so symmetrical, I, uh, wait a minute, I just saw that last week at the, you know, uh, casino, over in Las Vegas. And you see these implosions all the time, and the next one fell, and I said hell, there's another one. And they're trying to tell me an airplane did it? And that's, you know, I can't go along with that.
