It's clear to me that there are a lot of Bush apologists out there who want to stick their heads in the sand and ignore the evidence pointing to the likely circumstance that Bush and his administration knew well in advance of 9/11 that it was going to happen and deliberately did not act to prevent it. If Bush had been far left instead of far right, I can say with 100% confidence that the same information that is being dismissed by members of this forum now would be used as justification for calls to hang Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney and others as traitors and war criminals. Instead, they choose to target Hillary Clinton whose greatest crimes were poor judgment and political spin. Why? Because it's politically convenient for the right to whip their base into a frenzy over it.

 

If the generalized "you" want to continue sticking your heads in the sand and ignoring the reality that the federal government began systematically depriving us of our rights on September 12th, 2001, and that they continue to do so today with the thanks and respect of the "anything for security/Uncle Sam knows what's best" mentality exhibited by members of this very board, fine. If you choose not to recognize that the Bush administration wasted little time spinning the attack into wars and destabilization in the Middle East, including a war against Iraq that we have lost more convincingly than any war in American history--a war that has been extremely good for oil futures and defense contractors like, you know, Halliburton--and you would rather go on thinking that a man who was part of the group that orchestrated the greatest act of treason in American history is some kind of hero, fine. Just remember this conversation when the party line becomes a bread line right out of 1984, and the Bill of Rights goes from the foundation upon which this country is built to a document worth little more than a roll of toilet paper.
