Washington wasn't in a rage when Bushco lied to everyone to start a war which cost this country thousands of innocent lives, devastated many families, and pushed us toward bankruptcy.
Washington wasn't in a rage when the Bush Administration worked to out a covert CIA agent during a time of war, and did it for political reasons, putting the lives of others in jeopardy by doing so. Isn't this treason?
Washington wasn't in a rage when the Wall Street elite threw the world economy into a severe recession because of their greed. Their actions cost people their jobs, savings, homes, health, security, safety, and more. Yet no rage, no investigations, no prosecutions. Five years later, we're still trying to dig ourselves out of the mess Wall Street created...and still...no rage.
Yet this is what it takes for Washington to get in a rage. Wonder what it's going to take for the American people to get in a rage with Washington over their shenanigans?
