Wow.
We're most familiar with Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) because of his obsession with gay issues. He's leading the effort to block D.C.'s new same-sex marriage law.
But, Think Progress reports an even more disturbing fact about Chaffetz. He's in cahoots with the 9/11 truthers:
Recently, a truther organization called “We Are The Change” spoke to Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) — a friend of Beck and a frequent guest on his show — about reopening an investigation into 9/11. Chaffetz agreed with the activist, and even noted that he had spoken to professor Steven Jones, leading 9/11 truther, who Chaffetz said had done “interesting work”:This is pretty extreme. Just about everyone on both sides of the political spectrum, including Glenn Beck, has disavowed the 9/11 conspiracy crowd.Q: A reopening into the investigation of 9/11?
CHAFFETZ: Well there’s a lot we still need to learn. Of course we want to look into that issue, look at every aspect of it. [...] Who was the BYU professor? [...] Steve Jones, yeah I’ve met with him. He’s done some interesting work.
Q: Have you given much thought to the possibility it was a falsified terrorist attack on 9/11?
CHAFFETZ: Well I know there’s still a lot to learn about what happened and what didn’t happen, we should be vigilant and continue to investigate that, absolutely.
Q: Appreciate that. We at We Are The Change believe it was a falsified terrorist attack, that the buildings came down with internally placed demolition.
Okay, now we know: One of the leading homophobes in the House is a conspiracy nut. We'll never let him forget it.
