The “soul-searching” confessions and the “I’m sorry’s” from all those who aided and abetted this horrific march to wage an unnecessary preemptive war of choice in Iraq isn’t enough to absolve their guilt in causing the deaths of thousands of innocent people and over 2000 American soldiers. It doesn’t change the lies they told to truths!  They say confession is good for the soul, but it certainly doesn’t reduce responsibility for their actions.  If justice is really to be served, if the rule of law is truly important, then the entire cabal should be frog-marched in hand-cuffs out of office and into jail, where they belong!

Since when has “conspiracy and money laundering” become “partisan politics”---why, since mainstream corporate media attempted to frame, mold and shape public opinion, about Tom DeLay, of course!  Recently I heard someone in government say, “There is no truth!  Success depends on what you can make someone believe to be the truth.”

Tom DeLay’s definition of a fair trial, with an unbiased jury: Sugarland, Texas!

When single issue supporters join forces with a whole bunch of different single issue supporters, you end up with George Bush and a preemptive unnecessary war of choice in Iraq!  The safety and security of an entire nation has been sacrificed for a single issue, thanks to a whole bunch of people only interested in their personal selfish goals!  We can thank the religious fanatics, praying for Armageddon, the Repuglicans, whose desire it is to ensure that they maintain power, the conservatives, pushing for tax-cuts for the rich, the corporations, whose bottom line is the only consideration, the oil men, who want the oil, the arms dealers, seeking to sell their wares, the military generals, seeking bigger appropriations, coalition countries, courting favor, think-tanks, who owe their existence to the individual cause, mainstream media, cheerleading for all the numerous single issues, for the mess America is in today!  Patriotism?  I don’t think so!

It’s called, how a moron who’s up to his ears in deep-s/#t, takes a head-dive all the way into the toilet!  George Bush thinks breaking the law and compromising National Security is nothing more than “background noise”!  Obviously anyone who believes the problems in America are a minor irritation hasn’t got the brains to run this country!

I have faith in those Democrats from Texas---and I don’t believe Ronnie Earle is going to turn tail and run.  The “hammer” is just a nice way to say the “bully,” and we all know, nobody likes a bully! When one has truth, justice, and the American way on their side, success is guaranteed.  Tom DeLay is history!

While I have been grateful, lately, about a seemingly more objective mainstream corporate media, I have often wondered, WHY?  What happened to suddenly change the mood from Bush cheerleader to obviously presenting some TRUTH in news?  Given the recent possibility of indictments in all the right places, I believe that the media in an effort to maintain their position, to mold and shape public opinion and “make the news,” decided, at least for a time, to appear objective.  That way, when the need to aid and abet arises again, they, the media, will still be in a position to sway public opinion.  Iran? Syria? North Korea, anyone???  Some things, they never really change!
