That may have been done for public consumption. :) There is that which is done for show,

and there is that which is done for real. There is that which is done with fanfare and for the public, and there is that which is done quietly and in private.

When we cannot tell which is which, we've been had.

We've been had for centuries.

If there is a metric for this "degree of being had", a measure which is directly proportional to the degree of gullibility, I believe Americans (through diligent flag-waving training since childhood) have three measures of this while the typical non-American has one.

We had to get rid of invisible WMD, remember?
