Some Folks Are So Gullible

Some Folks Are So Gullible By Elton Camp Pity those who believe anything others say People like that are certain Lincoln was gay FDR was a sorry presidential ball of slime Who knew about Pearl Harbor ahead of time And 9-11 would’ve never happened that way Except for conspiracy by Bush and the CIA It was somebody else who John Kennedy shot And Lee Harvey Oswald it most surely was not And the moon landings didn’t ever take place Lies by astronauts and NASA are a disgrace President Obama in darkest Africa was born Jesus is coming back 2011 on a May morn A report that a UFO has crashed on some beach To accept as fact would be easily in their reach Any lesson in common sense they can’t learn So the title of “Lunatic” they have come to earn

Elton, love this! Especially in light of the "rapture" recently.

Renee, I just read in the newspaper that the same guy has now set October 21st for the end of the world. I can't believe how much attention her got from the media and the public. I wonder if he is one of my relatives who somehow added "ing" to his last name. Elton Camp

It's true that people believe a variety of things, some of which are truly bizarre. As a science major, I tend to follow "Occam's Razor." You might enjoy "Googling" those terms if you aren't familiar with them (few are outside of science). I too believe in unidentified flying objects, but certainly not that they are alien spacecrafts. A kid's kite can be a UFO in the true meaning of the term. Thanks for reading and your many interesting comments. Elton

There are some who claim the holocaust never took place, Elton. In the U.S. there are many who believe Oswald did not act alone as shots came from two directions. I have heard some folks say the moon landing was "staged." Of course, I believe in UFOs, so what do I know. Love from the looney bin, Carolyn

I did alot of research on the 911 conspiracy theory,,and some of it does make you question through documents they found that something is wrong..OFF...

conspiracy theories...I hate to admit it but I read quite a few documents on the 911 and it can be very convincing when you read them..have you see all the documents on things odd they found out?
