				the big lie.
			 
 The germans coined this term about the persecution of the jews. They needed a scapegoat to distract the german people so that they could take care of their real agendas like world domination. 
 We are seeing this today if you read between the lines.
 The big lie is WMD's and Iraq..  That is the distraction.
 
 Meanwhile the republicans are sneakily destroying our freedoms one at a time back home and no body is outraged because we are soo caught up worrying about terrorists and un-just wars.  They have loosened polution controls, handed out billions in corperate welfare, they are about to make abortion illegal, even if you are raped or a victim of incest, they are destroying our rights to privacy.. the list goes on an on..
 
 I want my old country back
 Fear is a powerful tool.

Wich is fine with me becuase they will never win elections with no ideas and nothing but Republican bashing. Whenever Howard Dean or Al Gore opens thier mouth i laugh knowing its only helping Republicans. The Dems could do fine if they had some solid plans and ideas. The number one issue in this country is terroism, and every poll taken shows republicans crush Dems on that issue. Until they get thier act together on national security they will never win elections. They are fruitcakes on that issue.  Just wait till Hillary runs in 08 and she gets smoked at the poles!

				 | I wonder what it would be like to live in another country..... 
How bout those Democrats, banging the drum to get us off of oil, but when someone wants to build an LNG off loading area they want to spend millions of your dollars on studies to what kind of impact there would be.  Then they fight the things tooth and nail.    |

				 | iraq posesd no threat to the united states.. so what if they did have wmd's they were not going to use them to attack us.  I can tell you what they did have-   OIL.  we tapped into it right away and bingo instant record oil profits for exxon mobile. by loosening pollution constraints their profit margins were even greater.

Yes God Bless America and support our troops!
 
  So we cannot acknowledge other issues that demand vast improvements or corrections? How many brave and patriotic soldiers are being used for unjust purposes? How many are dying or suffer life alteringly injuries for twisted purposes and most historically based upon natural resources, whether it be oil, land, gold, diamonds, etc. etc., not safety for our country or to save other countries?
 
  I am patriotic but not blind....thats why they created the word angst.
 
I love my country and don`t want to leave. Yet we are far from perfect and most assuredly internationally corrupt. What major power isn`t ? 
 
War of the Worlds is an ever constant. Its in our biology I fear.

				 | just remember... over 150 thousand iraqi civilians have died because we were scared that they MIGHT hurt us.  
That my friends is F-ed up    Do you  kill your neighbor because you think he might hurt you?? Do you kill the guy down the street because he is friends with someone ho has done harm??   
What we  have here is a Lynch mob of epic worldly preportions..
 
I learned this valuable lesson in elementary school recess....the biggist pussy always throws the first punch. 
 
Oh and i support our troops they are just following orders, its their leadership that needs the bitch slap. |

				 | Myself along with the majority of americans where glad to see some retaliation for the bombing on 9-11.Lets get em Go USA flags hooked on every car.U have to admit this war is turning into another veitnam.Perhaps not in the same activist ways of the late 60's but in the same long drawn out no win situation that killed many young boys an left many unseen scars 40 yrs ago.history repeats itself they say.When i was a kid i used to think this would be a great country to live in as our president would be from my generation.Boy was I wrong it almost seems as though we are going backwards....I hope our troops come home as soon as possible an may god watch over em.They are there for us. |

What happened?  Osama in the crosshairs but no kill order authorized.

				It did and it didn't...the big lie...
			 
 The biggest threat in the mideast was Irag and it money fueling terrorism around the world.  The even bigger threat is Iran because of its very near in the future nuclear capabilities.  If anyone here regardless of the side of the fence you sit on doesn't think that Iran wants to take over the entire mideast region in the next ten years then you live with your head in the sand.  It will be too late when they have the bomb.  Way to late. |

				 | nebe eben I know its one of the two. Its good to hear you support our troops, that cannot be said enough.  I don't agree with much else, the recess thing has merit but comparing it to iraq is apples to mailboxes.   but hey, freedom of speech is just one of the many things that make this country great!!   |

				 | whoa.. i never said the democrats were innocent in all of this.  I will say that they didnt tap into the 'fear issue' and use the fear of terrorism to push their ultimate agendas....   
i gotta go to work now, so i am ending my A.M. rant...
 
Anyway, i just thought i would share my thoughts, and remember, i am a professional artist/craftsman. I am programed to hate all poloticians

It doesn't mean you have to agree with them, but when you have a multi-faceted understanding you might just find the truth is in the middle and not beneath your feet.
 
Blindly defending a position that defies objective thought is exactly what the GOP propaganda machine has programed you to do. You don't need to think because they will do the thinking for you.
 
Did you know there are 40 Vets running for Congress this fall as DEMOCRATS!
