Coug, who among us wants to admit when someone we trust is simply lying to us? Simplistic, but there is a correlation. What can bring us to our knees more than knowing what we put our greatest faith in is using us? imo, Americans are by and large naive in their faith in their government... that it is by the people and for the people. To accept that it is a lie, is to take the foundation away. That takes the resolve that it takes to leave not just an abusive partner, but an abusive partner we love with all our hearts, who we trusted to be with forever.

The many are going to be really disappointed when the debt bubble bursts. What really makes me sad, is that being informed on the facts surrounding the Iraq situation, was statistically correlated to being against the war. So all the folks who had it wrong (and believed Saddam was personally involved in 9/11), be they 50 percent of this nation, or 35% or whatever, (a large percentage, sadly), those folks helped the politicians who wanted to push the war. Sad that most of what people believed was false. Those few people who believed that we went to war to help the oppressed people of Iraq to peace and democracy, through better high tech bombing by America, at least can still hold their heads up high- and say "We STILL believe we are "helping" the people of Iraq." If it weren't such a sad sad mess, it would be funny.
