(6,927 posts)125. I can't believe how angry I still am about it
Like spittle inducing rage. Those motherfuckers. All those people killed. For nothing. All those people tortured. And we prance around the world like we are some sort of moral authority. And, another thing. I KNEW the Bushies were lying. I knew it. How did I know it? Me, some nobody from Nowheresville, Ohio? Because, you never trust the official line. Never. It is not believing in conspiracies either, it is realizing that there is no way in hell the government is going to tell its citizens what is really going on. Never, ever. Everyone lies. Even the good guys. Keep that in mind for the next big adventure.
