That's because he is purely an act and opportunist who has realized that he can make a hell of a lot of cash pay by spinning these crazy nutjob conspiracies. The more people that visit his website, the more cash that drips into this lazy man's pocket.

One thing I love about the clip - and there are many things I love - is the way Alex is screaming at Andrew Neil about how 'you will not stop the republic!' Newsflash Alex, you're in the UK, not back home. Why the hell should you be screaming at a British TV host about the republic? Then again, I'm on a fruitless quest finding logic behind what Jones does.

Always fun to find the origin of these things, isn't it?

Actually the word "sheeple" came from a car commercial that ran for a year or two quite a number of years ago. There is also some rumors that this word has roots as far back as the 1980's in the punk and goth scenes.

Have you seen the other shows he's been on. He literally hijacks the host and the show and turns it into the "Alex Jones Show" and mouthspams Infowars.com

I thought Fox News called him crazy. But yeah, not as harmful as idiot.

Except, Alex brought himself over to Blighty to sit down on one of our BBC shows. Chaos ensues. Check out a clip of the end when things really go super-nuts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0ud4UPqi4w

The full interview is easy to find thereafter. I guess I don't have a specific point of discussion to propose, other than just asking you Americans why do you have to export people like him over to us? :P Though I won't deny, it was pretty funny.

Thank God for Alex Jones... Shame he doesn't host that Sunday Politics show then the politicians might actually have to answer some searching questions instead of getting an easy ride from the BBC establishment every week!

Please, please tell me this wasn't written seriously.
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.

I meant the "infowars.com" bit. I didn't realize that was an Alex Jones thing.

Mostly because I had no idea who that guy was.
