"Mark Gorton is a prominent financier and a respected entrepreneur. He founded the music sharing site Limewire, and he runs Tower Research, a famed high-frequency trading firm. Gorton also believes that the "ruthless" secret cabal that assassinated JFK and planned 9/11 could be coming to kill his family."

It's effortless for you to insult the man. It would take a little effort to show evidence that he is wrong.

Gorton attended Yale, Harvard and Stanford Universities.

Would those Universities accept a crazy man?

That assumes he was always crazy. Sometimes, people develop insanities in later life. However, no university or college that I am aware of requires a sanity test as a part of the application process, so yes, those universities may very well accept crazy people.
And suggesting someone has mental or emotional problems isn't insulting them. Only someone crass, insensitive, and poorly educated believes that insanity is anything other than a medical problem. Do you think that calling someone a diabetic, for example, is insulting them?

"Crazy", the way you used it is insulting because you show no evidence that would indicate he is crazy. What he says makes a lot of sense to people who can think and analyze--people who aren't in the business of covering up the truth.

Look at what Gorton has accomplished in his 48 years. Could a crazy person do that? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Gorton

I didn't use it as an insult, just a colloquialism. I can't help what you infer.

Ted Kazinski, aka The Unabomber, graduated from Harvard at the age of 16. So the answer to your question is an emphatic YES!!!

Neither you nor Kombeguy have rebutted anything Gorton says.

Character assassination is not debate. Is that all you two are here for?

I didn't rebut the unabomber, either. Res ipsa loquitor.

When you accuse someone of being crazy while providing no evidence, that is character assassination-- which is insulting no matter how you try to spin it.

Mark Gorton does not live in a remote cabin in the woods and send out letter bombs. There is no comparison.

I wasn't trying to rebut anyone. I wasn't assassinating anyone's character. I was merely answering your question with facts. Nothing more, nothing less. I made no value judgement, I just answered your question. You sure seem defensive. Just sayin'.

You didn't answer my question with facts. Since you are defending Kombeguy, you simply researched to find someone who had attended Harvard who had the worst behavioral problems you could find. If you want to prove Gorton is insane, show me some evidence.
