Because George W. Bush stole the 2000 election. And we've voluntarily given up our rights so as to be something other than the land of the free and the home of the brave. Bush terrorized us as a well as the rest of the world. He then profited from the fear he created. It all started with the crime that put the cartel in permanent power.
They've gamed the system to where they have the judiciary on the payroll. There's no other reason for Karl Rove and Alberto Gonzalez to be free men today. And the rest of the cartel is also culpable.
If international law enforcement comes for the cartel, the US authorities should look the other way. It's the only way we restore our morals and conscience. Hold them accountable.
Every day they would tell a bigger lie than the day before. The human mind cannot keep up with the onslaught of propaganda, and that's the technique they used to keep everyone off balance. Bush's malapropisms were by design, so as to give the appearance of plausible deniability after he was exposed. We were the victims a mass brain washing operation. First we were traumatized and then we surrendered who we are as a culture. That they executed their evil plan without a peep from the corporate media is evidence that the cartel used the Constitution many of us defended with our lives as just a damn piece of paper. Whenever a crime of this magnitude is committed, follow the money to an off shore money laundry.
