This was awesome, especially since the question actually came to me the day before I watched this video. Seems like a no-brainer but, why are we not ALL OVER the moon, figutatively and literally. We should be vacationing on the moon by now.
Alex Jones is entertaining like many conspiracy pirates. I attribute the longevity of the show to its' incorporation of mainstream media news bytes into an everpresent layer of tongue-in-cheek 'we aint takin' it no more' dialogue between Alex, his writers and the motley audience. Of course Alex himself is a self proclaimed, dyed-in-the-wool Harvard Republican. How much room for conspiracy theory is there when most of the discussion involves bipartison government politics and promos for dietary products Alex is always trying to sell.
