Jim, what % of Americans do you think either know this or are willing to admit it?

Is it your view that the American foreign policy, in general, does not revolve around the concept of fairness and
providing peace and democracy for the good of foreign people and governments, as claimed?

Is this all propaganda to allow more tax money to be diverged into various military operations in order to stabilize the
flow of oil into this country or keep the US economy going? Is it your view that politicians can not say to people, "give
us money so we can send your boys and girls to Middle East to make sure that you still pay about $1/gallon at the
pump"? Is it more politically correct to say that they are protecting humanity and oppressed people from an
aggressor like Saddom? Will Americans, if told the truth, are willing to pay more for foreign goods or lower their
standards of living in exchange for the comfort and rights of other people in the world?

Clint

P.S.,
Sorry Sage, but I am still waiting for your answer.
