I thought better of it. Living in Nebraska I have had to hear for years how Kerrey was this magic man who someday would be nominated for President of the United States. Until, that is, he had to fess up to some of the dispicable things he did while he was in Viet Nam. (NOW ALL YOU VIET NAM VETS, DON'T GET ALL WORKED UP. I REALIZE THAT BEING IN A WAR ZONE MAKES PEOPLE DO THINGS THAT THEY WOULDN'T ORDINARILY DO.) But Kerrey kept his past hidden and only fessed up when the news started to leak and he was going to get busted. That was when he was Senator Kerrey. Kerrey then decided that he would get out of politics and persue other interests. Kerrey is big business all the way, preserve the status quo and all that. Why else do you think he was allowed to serve on the panel supposedly 'investigating' the events surrounding 9/11. They didn't put anyone on that panel who would fight for the facts coming out, it wasn't in their best interest. These people have to preserve the facade of 'our country, right or wrong'. Anything else is considered unpatriotic.
No one was put on this panel who had the intention of truly exposing this administration for what it really is. A bunch of bigoted, greedy thugs who are absolutely out of control. And no one on this panel has the intention of exposing why we went into Iraq. Face it, the United States is fueled by oil, and bush* & co. are oil families. It wasn't ever anything about protecting US interests or retaliation for the events of September 11th, it was always about promoting their own personal interests and their warped views of US domination around the globe. Do you really think these people are going to allow the world to know that our government has been hijacked by a bunch of facists? If so, it is time to get real. The only reason that we've gotten this far is because the 911 widows have pushed this issue. And people like us who have known all along that this administration is packed with clowns who normally would be perceived as criminals. And I don't use the term lightly. What else would you call a bunch of thugs who lied and country into war, bombed innocent civilians, gave government contracts to their friends and business associates not caring whether or not we got what we paid for, sending troops into a war zone WITHOUT ENOUGHT AMMUNITION TO DEFEND THEMSELVES? People who tell you that the went into Iraq to give them liberty and freedom but intend to install military bases and the largest foreign embassy in that country. How many military bases is it, fourteen or something like that? And what about Article 59 in the new Iraqi constitution (I think that's where it stated) that the US military would be 'invited' to remain after the handover of power to the Iraqi governing council.
Please people, get real. It will be grassroots movements that expose the bush* administration for what it really is. And independent newspeople who aren't afraid that the corporations that own the companies they work for will kick their asses and put them in the umemployment line if they even hint at the truth of what's going on in this country. Because the mainstream corporate media sure ain't gonna do the right thing and tell the truth. And the people on the 911 commission have no intention of asking the right questions.
