Lies, repeated often enough, eventually are seen as true.

So slogans like "Moral Majority" are very important in conning the gullible public.

The phrase "weapons of mass destruction" has been repeated so many times it now is abbreviated often to WMD.

You are supposed to believe what you are told so that you will give your assent to the actions taken. Not that it REALLY matters, but good poll numbers are needed to give feedback as to whether the con is working.

It is POSSIBLE that the leadership of this country actually believes its own garbage. Possible, but not likely. If you step back and look at what is happening it is very easy to see that the administration is in the SERVICE of power, privilege and GREED. And seen that way, they are doing a very good job!

However, it can't be pitched that way, so some clever people are coming up with the theme, slogans, phrases. And the masses are falling for it, hook, line and sinker.

The independent press? In America? Forget it. It is OWNED.
At this point it would be a waste to have a Federal news agency because the major TV networks are captives (for free). Just hold them hostage to information and they are in your lap.

Independent investigation? Watergate was probably the LAST EVENT in that sequence. How many years ago?

Namaste!
