“Our focus is not on the past. It’s on the future.”

-- Scott McClellan, White House Spokesman.

<snip>

How convenient to focus on the future when the past is a compelling indictment of criminal and immoral behavior. If it were an adequate explanation, then Richard Nixon would have completed his second term, Lyndon Johnson would have sought reelection, and the Nuremberg trials would not have been convened.

Beyond the incredulity of the president’s response to a growing body of evidence that his administration cooked the books to justify an illegal and unjustified war, the crime is not limited to the past. It is ongoing and has no end in sight.

When you are caught in the process of committing a crime, whether it is a common burglary or a war of naked aggression, you do not ask leave to consummate the act. Should this be any less apparent when there are hundreds of thousands of lives in the balance?

This nation went to war on allegations our leaders knew with absolute clarity were false and malicious. Stubbornly clinging to the lie while slandering those who bring the truth to public light only compounds the crime with arrogance and obstruction -- the very crimes that ultimately ended the reign of Nixon.

1. You're only digging your own grave, Bush admin.....

There's millions of us and we will never be silenced. We're going to enforce the reigns and grip now more than ever before.

2. Wow is right . . .

Those of us who recognized the truth and opposed the war from its inception owe it to the collective conscience of the nation to continually point out that it was never difficult to decipher. George Bush may be charming at a certain level to a certain segment of society but he was never good at hiding the truth. He wanted war so bad he flaunted it like a chest-thumping gorilla. He ordered Shock and Awe while the disarmament of Iraq was literally in progress just so he could mark the anniversary of Daddy’s War with his own. It could not have been more obvious.

Those who wish to jump on the antiwar, anti-occupation bandwagon now, you are long overdue and welcome but do not ask for special recognition. Let it be recorded in history that America’s political leaders (with the exception of the Congressional Black Caucus and very few others) were slow to act and that they deferred until shifting public opinion made it tenuous not to declare opposition.

As for those who continue to support the president, his wars, his occupations and his doctrine of perpetual war, may whatever deity you confide in (for I am told you are people of faith) forgive you. As you stood with the president, so may you fall. It is very late in the day and there is a price to be paid in blood, treasure and political capital for every moment we continue to prolong the inevitable.

20. This says it all I think

for religous folks like myself:

Proverbs chapter twelve verses thirteen through twenty-eight:

13 An evil man is trapped by his sinful talk,
but a righteous man escapes trouble.

14 From the fruit of his lips a man is filled with good things
as surely as the work of his hands rewards him.

15 The way of a fool seems right to him,
but a wise man listens to advice.

16 A fool shows his annoyance at once,
but a prudent man overlooks an insult.

17 A truthful witness gives honest testimony,
but a false witness tells lies.

18 Reckless words pierce like a sword,
but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

19 Truthful lips endure forever,
but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.

20 There is deceit in the hearts of those who plot evil,
but joy for those who promote peace.

21 No harm befalls the righteous,
but the wicked have their fill of trouble.

22 The LORD detests lying lips,
but he delights in men who are truthful.

23 A prudent man keeps his knowledge to himself,
but the heart of fools blurts out folly.

24 Diligent hands will rule,
but laziness ends in slave labor.

25 An anxious heart weighs a man down,
but a kind word cheers him up.

26 A righteous man is cautious in friendship,
but the way of the wicked leads them astray.

27 The lazy man does not roast his game,
but the diligent man prizes his possessions.

28 In the way of righteousness there is life;
along that path is immortality.

6. Great Article Willy

We have lost another war we should never have begun. We have darkened the dignity of the nation. We have dimmed the light of freedom and democracy. We have lowered the flag in mourning and in shame and we have held it to public ridicule

Kinda says it all.

10. Way to go Jack!

Hammer it home! Send the Bush boys back to Kennebunkport. Then send them to the International Criminal Court.

11. Our focus is not on the past. It’s on the future.”That's what Mark Maguire

said at the hearings in congress. When pressed to talk about his use of anabolic steroids he repeated over and over, "“I am not here to talk about the past.”

Right, because your ass is guilty as the day is long. And so is Bush.

I know for sure one day the lies will be exposed, the truth always comes out eventually. The problem is the waiting. . .

[LightningFlash]

12. No waiting....mail him.

[e-mail] Lets get a special prosecutor involved right away....

[rateyes]

13. "everyone pretty much knew what he was up to.."

Harry Reid said Alan Greenspan was the biggest "political hack" in Washington. If so, his wife, Andrea Mitchell, is running a close second.

We're focusing on the future, too. And, we know that a future with Bush and the repukes is no future at all.

[Initech]

14. Instead of focusing on the future, why dont we focus on what's happening

Right now? Huh, Scott McClellan? Any good ideas there?

[LightningFlash]

15. His ideas: "Lie, Lie, Lie again. No we ain't goin down to commies!"

[Initech]

16. Replace "commies" with "terrorists" and you're right.

[CantGetFooledAgain]

17. Wow. Just Wow.

A beautifully written piece. Magnificent and stirring. A "must read" if ever there were.

26. Hmmm...

... “Our focus is not on the past. It’s on the future.”

Maybe someone should try that defense at a murder trial. I mean by that logic, surely all the Texas Death Row inmates should be released?

(well, at least the nice murderers who promise not to do it again)

-P
