"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive".
--C. S. Lewis
Just about all the laws that the Bush Administration chooses to ignore are supposedly done in the name of protecting the people. And this refusal to observe the laws of this country benefit only the ones in power.
We've all head it " We have to fight them over there so we don't have to fight them over here". Really? We invaded Iraq, who had no WMD, had no organized Al-Queda, hadn't threatened the United States, and was complying with all United Nations demands. So Bush ran out the Inspectors, had artists renditions of "WMD" drawn, overtook the airways with 24/7 propaganda of the danger of allowing Iraq to exist as a sovereign Country for one more minute, got the majority of Americans to believing Iraq was behind 9/11 and marched into Iraq killing and destroying the country.
Just what has average Joe Citizen gained from our destruction of a Country that not only had no means to bring us any harm, but also never threatened to do so? Basically we have all fallen under the tyranny of a War criminal who is enabled by a do nothing Congress, leaving all but 4,000 plus of us to suffer further shame and the task of paying off a staggering $3 Trillion debt that much of that has gone to the Bush Administrations friends and enablers.
How does that old song go? Is it "They got the mine, we got the shaft?"
Of course we can get out of this starting tomorrow. We can start Impeachment proceedings against the whole gang of thieves and criminals. But we won't. We'll be too busy trying to decide which of the three evils we need to select for the next President.
Never, Ever, vote for the lesser of Evils. What you are sure to get is Evil.
Instead, why not join a group who has as their mission to wrest control of the Government back for the people? They're out there. My passion is to somehow to get the various Independent parties to form a Coalition to support common delegates. That's one peaceful way to regain our Government.
"The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
