Reply #7: Buzz, the very real problem you (and the government) has to deal with

[Skidmore]

is that there is a huge number of people out here in the country who don't believe a damned thing coming out of DC. There have been to many lies and staged events over stupid stuff. When something does come along that is really serious, we've learned from events like Katrina that DHS, Congress, and the "leader of the free world" cannot be counted on at times of crises. There are no policies in place to make this nation secure at any level, and this deal of practically having people fly naked doesn't pass the sniff test.

This is a fine example of what happens when incompetents deal in hyperbole and lies too often. Bottom line is that we have been lied to and lied to. We destroyed a nation because of a lie. People are dying because of a lie. "Terra" has been shouted one too many times and has been proven to be a lie.

There's a whole lot of not talking going on in the world. Six years of strutting and grabbing the crotch and spitting on others and we wonder why we get poked in the eye? The US and Israel need to stop playing tough and talking with their enemies--truthfully. The word will stand the chance of becoming more peaceful.
