Administration is deceitful, corrupt

The editorial policy of the Register seems to be very pro President Bush and pro Republican, but I will say that differing viewpoints are published, so here's credit for that.
The facts are there, for all who wish to find them, showing that the Bush administration is corrupt and deceitful. Patriotism is not about falling into lockstep just to support the president. Supporting the troops does not mean we can turn a blind eye to the lies -- yes, downright lies -- to fix the facts around the policy to go to war.


Patriotism is standing up for what the United States was founded upon: freedom to stand against tyranny, to stand against sending our soldiers into an unjust war with no exit policy and spending billions and causing more violence.

Where does it end, and for what purpose? Why do the reasons keep changing? Knowledge is power, and THAT'S patriotic

2. Thanks , Jeff, I just tried to keep it short & to the point

however, as much as I would have liked to go into details, I tried to let people think that maybe they could go ahead & do some of their own homework, but that's kinda the problem, because the ones who need to be reached can't or won't do their homework, just thinkin' out loud. Here's a believe it or not moment for ya tho--I graduated from a high school in Nebraska whose mascot was JEFF!
