Liberals have no one to blame but themselves

for allowing George H W Bush and his henchmen to escape due process in the 80's

If these reich-wing reactionaries had been held accountable for their crimes during the Dirty Wars in Latin America the GOP would be a footnote in history and we wouldn't be bemoaning apologist enablers like Nancy Pelosi and the destruction of the economy.

If junior wasn't still in prison, he would be a burnt-out drunk in some cockroach infested trailer in Bumfuck Texas and we wouldn't be suffering the ire of the World for the criminal actions of a few individuals.

For wars in Latin America??

2. Junior was known as the 'Enforcer.'

He and Rove engaged in enough mayhem and criminality during that period to keep them both in prison for life.

3. Well, W's illegal Harken dealings WERE part of BCCI which should've seen the entire BFEE exposed

and jailed.

But then, Clinton came along and sided with the secrecy and privilege of Poppy Bush and his powerful cronies (jackson Stephens, Dubai and Saudi royals) and BCCI's many outstanding matters uncovered by John Kerry's 5 1/2 year effort on the world's biggest terrorist bank were deep-sixed throughout the 90s.

4. This is why I will never forgive Bill Clinton.

He could have put an end to it, instead he joined them. Greed knows no bounds.

7. Not to mention that Kerry was also one the strongest critics of the

Latin American dirty wars and risked his career investigating the drug and arms smuggling they did.

5. It's not the liberals

Edited on Wed Jul-30-08 01:44 PM by Zodiak Ironfist

The "liberals" have been shut out of government for well over 30 years.

If you mean "reagan democrats" "centrists" "blue dogs", well, many of them are still running the show in the Democratic party. Which is why you get impeachment off of the table, ignored subpoena's, and FISA bills. Why don't you blame these Democrats and then do something about it?

The "liberals" barely exist in government any more, and Democrat and liberal are NOT interchangeable terms.

It's time for Liberals to stand up and be counted.
