4. Why? (I posted earlier on another thread)
so many of the left bloggers and people like Franken have refused to talk about it. Even Michael Moore. Al Gore. Moveon. These are people who have spoken out totally critical of this administration. It is still a mystery. I think this blackout is an important subject because it speaks to the bigger problem of denial perhaps fear and the programing of cultural and political dialog.

Is it that the problem is just to difficult to embrace with the Republicans holding so much power? Is it that such fraud on a massive scale is just to difficult to contemplate? Is it if an administration sets up such a sequence of lies and blatant misdeeds even without lies that the public gets hardened and frightened? Is it if you tell someone you are going to do something against their interests is such a consistent and continuous way does it create a kind of death of dialog...a dis empowerment?
