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

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

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?
