How can this be? Listen to what the nine+one dwarves are actually shouting from their soapboxes, and witness that the 3rd best selling book on the international best sellers list in the category of non-fiction is something written by a former German government minister, that says that the World Trade Center was blown up by a conspiracy of American Conservatives and the Israeli Mossad, in order to somehow take over the world. I am not kidding, and I am alarmed Humes observation clarifies the entire situation, to the point of cutting through the obfuscation, smoke, and baloney we have heard from press and politicians on this issue. And there lies the danger; their lies threaten the very existence of our nation. And I DO NOT think I exaggerate regarding this.
Bruce Springsteen believes this kind of thing, even though he might think twice about going into it at any great length, if he at all realized how insane he would sound. And he thinks he is talking to an audience of like-minded people. This is the problem. We have a political party and a news media that are determined to undermine the current president, and they dont care if the issue they use is national defense or not. Power is all that matters to them, and lying to their weak-minded followers is how they intend on consolidating that power. Combine that with the fact that Bush is not a vicious polemicist/propagandist, like his opponents, and resists countering fraudulent and inflammatory rhetoric out of a sense of personal morality and a desire to maintain the new tone, and we have a segment of the populace that has bought into treasonous fraud, and are too blind to realize it. Essentially, we are about to do political battle with a phalanx of true believing idiots. Heaven help us all if an idiot like Dean, or Clark, or (shudder) Hillary somehow gains power.
*Sigh* At least the surviving members of the Dead have kept quiet. Id hate to have to stop listening to them..
