A Cheney-Libby Conspiracy, Or Worse?

http://writ.news.findlaw.com/dean/20051104.html

*snip

I ask the collective DU intelligence, why we haven't a fitting name for this extensive scandal. One everyone can remember, one that impress the magnitude of this scandal. Forget ...gates please, all the gates that we known so far were ridiculously, unimportantly nice events.

This is really an unprecedented scandal.

1. It's the first scandal

that ties to lying and deceite the U.S. into unneccesary war, a high crime not alone for US constitution...

7. As I thought over...

there was a historical example:

“The great masses of people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one. Especially if it is repeated over and over.”

Adolf Hitler, http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler

Because the people just couldn't believe that such a intentionally, outright, evil agenda could exist without shame.

***

But that was a quote, maybe the best about the underlying principle, but not a catchword.

2. I've just been calling it the * Administration, but

now you've gotten me thinking.
It is unprecedented in this country, I believe you are right.

Thank you SittingBull!

5. to long, indicate to political left

and was a little bit trite. Sorry. It must be a real hammering, short and probably new word, because of the nonrecurring aspect.

C'mon People, it would be so cool if we could generate the NAME for this mess. Remember Fitzmas? It got cranked up on DU. Surely someone here can NAME it?
