America's Long Nightmare
It began when they refused to count the votes in 2000 and sent the election to the Supreme Court. Nine months later, we were attacked by a few people with knives and boxcutters. Since that day, our nation has lived in fear. We invaded two countries - the last one a "pre-emptive invasion". They lied about the degree of the threat from Saddam Hussein. In fact, there was no threat. Now we are bogged down in a quagmire in Iraq and have no idea how to get out. We have almost doubled our national debt since that time. Our nation is divided even worse than it was during the Vietnam war. And we are lied to day in and day out. Only Rip Van Winkle would say it has not been a nightmare...

1. Don't forget about how we pulled troops out of Afghanistan
in order to pre-emptively attack the country that was not a threat to us.

And how nicely that's worked out for the people of Afghanistan.

4. From everything that I have read
bush and his administation allowed 9-11 to happen or orchestated the attacks.
Why isnt this being investigated by unbiased people who can find out easily enough what really happened on sept 11th??
I am now reading a book called "9/11 revealed"by Rowland Morgan and Ian Hershall.I suggest everyone read it!!!!!
It takes you thru exactly what happened and why.
If we dont wake up in this country we will all be co-conspirators to this horrible tragedy!!!!
I cannot stand by and let this happen ,the truth HAS TO be told
