David Corn has "friends" in the CIA. That's all That Needs to be Said. PERIOD!
The principal argument of the anti-conspiracists is easily stated: "Nyahh, nyahhh. Conspeeeeeeracy. Elvis. Illumnati." That's about it, for the most part. Corn adds a few fillips, arguing, for instance, that there is no apparatus in the US adequately skilled to pull off a stunt like the WTC/Pentagon attacks (one wonders how our covert operatives feel about that). He tells us that he looked one of his CIA friends right in the eye, and the guy said that nobody in the agency would ever...
