32. Because our government is as smart as the Nazis were...
In fact they appear to be even more Nazi-capable than some of the Nazi's greatest stars, particularly Mr. Joseph Goebbels, who, along with successfully stripping Jews of any last shred of humanity and equating them with rats, so eloquently stated:

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

Truer words have never been spoken Joe. The fascinating thing about today though is that people are no longer shielded from "the truth." Everybody knows what's going on. Even Bushco itself has admitted - repeatedly - that there are no WMDs and still half - HALF - of America's population believes there were. Unbelievable. Absolutely fascinating. This may be due in large part to partisanship, but there can be little to no doubt that a good 1 out of every 4, if not 3, people in this country are just flat out fucking stupid. It's a shame.
