	The rant has been a long time coming. And then it comes forth,
 and the one lone specific amidst all the confused vituperative
 outpouring happens to be patently false. A long message full of
 unsubstantiated conspiracy theories.

	I see why you used the word rant:
======================================================================
>From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:

  Rant \Rant\, v. i. [imp. & p. p. {Ranted}; p. pr. & vb. n.
     {Ranting}.] [OD. ranten, randen, to dote, to be enraged.]
     To rave in violent, high-sounding, or extravagant language,
     without dignity of thought; to be noisy, boisterous, and
     bombastic in talk or declamation;
======================================================================

	"without dignity of thought". Seems an apt description.
