How conspiracy theories really work.


"See! I was right all along! You can't see them because they are INVISIBLE! The aliens have technology that is far advanced from ours. Not being able to see them PROVES that UFO's are real!"

(In case anyone missed the connection, I am talking about the emerging "conspiracy" that, somehow, President Obama is not really a U.S. citizen and therefore cannot be president. The momentum this is gaining in the mainstream (e.g., Lou Dobbs) is insane.)
