that the president and the government have their best interests at heart, and that whatever they do MUST be in the best interests of the country . . . much of this has to do with their being so uninformed about what's REALLY happening in the world, thanks in large part to the deficiencies (and downright lies) of the so-called "mainstream media" . . . it also has to do with the widespread desire of people to have someone else handle the heavy lifting for them, leaving them to pursue their own lives without having to really think about unpleasant things like war, torture, environmental degradation, and all the rest of it . . . in short, they're lazy, and they don't want to be bothered . . .
this will all change, however, when the crimes and other misdeeds of BushCo start to impact them directly -- when gas hit $3/gallon or more, when the draft in reinstated, when the housing bubble bursts, when their pensions disappear, etc. . . they'll start paying attention, but only when it becomes impossible for them not to . . .
