(45,319 posts)Kerry yesterday up there trying to tell us that he's being honest even though if he's not there would be no repercussions at all seemed to feel the sting of his own promotion of 'Saddam's WMD' and his idiotic vote to invade Iraq.
Had they held the liars accountable, we'd not have this deep distrust of the lot of them.

Do you think the Media would cover such things favorably? They were complicit too.

(45,319 posts)into the worst decision our country has made in war. That is why the people do not trust them now. It is that simple. Your opinion that LESS would have gotten done is not supported by anything but your dreams. I completely reject your theory. And I'm not a media paranoid sorry about that. Media covers things in various ways, there is not one voice coming from Rush and from Rachel, no matter how hyped up your framing.
We have laws to enforce we don't need Truth and Reconcilliation Hearings' we needed to fucking punish those who lied us into war and killed thousands in the waging of that war. Reconciliation? That's not what I had in mind, that's your trip, your long, strange trip.
