The truth will triumph...
The lies will lose. The lies about WMDs. The lies about Enron. The lies about the economy. The lies about the taxcuts. The lies about the lies. They will lose. The truth will triumph.

Those that ally themselves with the lies will lose. They cannot win with propaganda or political flim-flam. I am certain that the truth will defeat them.

3. They have squeezed about all the juice they can get out of all the lies
Lies live with guilt and denial. The truth is coming to the front.

5. Kentuk, I believe you are talking about the logical sequences
that unfold according to natural laws rather that fabricated or baseless actions. I agree with you.

4. Impeach. Indict. Imprison.
Impeach. Indict. Imprison. Impeach. Indict. Imprison. Impeach. Indict. Imprison. Impeach. Indict. Imprison.

You get the picture.

6. Can you imagine how therapeutic it would be for the world if the
criminals now in charge were to be indicted and imprisoned? A wave of good health would sweep the planet.

8. I love your optimism and certainty.
Sometimes I wonder if the lies really will lose. But what else can you do but fight?

12. I agree. And it was inevitable.
You can lie about military intelligence, reasons for war, all of the things that are, by their nature, 'hidden' from the public view. THAT you can get away with.

But you can't lie to people about their OWN LIVES. You can't lie to Americans about how well the economy is doing; they're struggling to make ends meet - they know better.

You can't lie to Americans about how outsourcing jobs isn't a widespread problem. They're out of work, and they see their friends and neighbours out of work - they know better.

You can't lie to Americans about how circumstances beyond anyone's control are driving up gas prices. They see the record profits of the oil companies - they know better.

You can't lie to Americans about how it's their own fault if they don't have retirement savings, or health care insurance. They're living paycheque to paycheque due to rising prices everywhere - they know better.

And once the American people, who formerly trusted and supported this Adminisration, realize they're being LIED TO about these things, they start to question EVERYTHING they've been told since day one - like WMDs, like Enron, like not being in bed with Abramoff, etc.

This was the biggest mistake of the GOP and those who put the Idiot in the White House. They just didn't think it through, didn't stop to realize that the people who formerly supported them would eventually get hit just as hard as the people who opposed them - and would react, shall we say, a bit negatively when it happened.

And now they've got the poll numbers to show it.

13. They believe all Republicans will go along with their conspiracy to lie...
to the American people. Once they realize they are being lied to, they will desert the Repubs in Washington that think they are one big happy team.

14. Precisely.
But if they'd wanted to keep the support of the Republican voters who put them in power in the first place, they should have handed out secret ID cards, or decoder-rings - maybe a complicated handshake that identifies you to your fellow Republicans?

"Oh, why didn't you SHOW me your GOP-ID card right away, ma'am. Of course you get a discount on your fill-up!"

"My boss was about to outsource MY job - then I gave him the handshake and the wink. Once he knew I was a Republican, he fired the Democrat down the hall instead!"

"Pssssst! Is that a GOP decoder ring you're wearing? The doctor will see you now - and of course, it's FREE OF CHARGE."

Did they HONESTLY think their supporters would continue that support once they started getting hit in the wallet, right alongside we Bush bashers?

Jeez, they must be even stupider than I thought - if THAT'S even possible.

15. the biggest lie of all . . . the lie behind all the other lies . . .
is what happened on 9/11 . . . when the truth about THAT comes out, the BushCo empire will disintegrate into a huge pile of ash -- just like the WTC . . .
