Lies. Destroying lives. Lies. Destroying our nation. Lies. Who benefits?

[TruthIsAll]

Whose diabolical mind thinks up all these lies? On a daily basis, no less. When did we cross the line from believing everything our government tells us to believing nothing they say? Who is the fiction writer responsible for this American tragedy? Who gives the marching orders to all the media liars. Who feeds them this crap?

Lies about the economy, lies about jobs, lies about Iraq, lies about 9/11, lies about WMD, lies about Wilson, lies about Jessica Lynch (raped anally, her leg almost amputated, shooting her rifle like Rambo, fighting off the Iraqis, suffering amnesia), lies about Clinton not going after bin Laden, lies about Gore saying he invented the Internet, lies about election fraud committed in Florida, lies about peaceful protestors, lies about global warming not yet proven, lies about taxes saved by the middle class, lies about the casualties in Iraq, lies about Mission Accomplished, lies about veteran's benefits, lies about cooperating with the investigations of 9/11, Iraq and the WH Wilson/Plame leak, lies about the Norad response on 9/11, lies about the 9/11 warnings, lies about the cost of the war, lies about the threat to Air Force One on 9/11, lies about Bush's rating approval, lies about supporting our troops, lies about how they "won" the Senate, lies about aids and stem cells, lies about Gulf War illness, lies about Iraqis throwing babies out of incubators, lies about Saddam massing troops on Saudi borders, lies about the Saudi-Bush-bin Laden connections, lies about the dangerous pollutants at the WTC on 9/11, lies about Bush National Guard service, lies about insider trading at Harken, lies about Saddam not cooperating with the U.N., lies about how the Iraqis welcomed us as liberators, lies about terror alerts, lies about finding the anthrax terrorist, lies about Clinton's people making a mess of the WH, lies about the Bush/Cheney Enron connection, lies about when Bush met Ken Lay, lies about what liberalism is all about, lies about creating democracies in the Middle East while at home the neoconservativenazis destroy democracy and replace it with a fascist coup d'etat, lies about Truman, JFK, FDR and Carter. Lies about why we went to war.

Just what is constitutes treason? Telling the truth?

Lies told about everything. The truth is reduced to a mere philosophical concept.

Only lies. Misrepresentations. Factual omissions. Same difference. Very demoralizing.

When will it all end? How will it all end? Will it end in our lifetime? Who will finally expose the lies?

Al Gore is doing it. But Al Gore is not running. Too bad.

1. Dennis Kucinich is doing it too

But then, there forces that don't allow his voice to be heard like Al's. I was SERIOUSLY hoping for a Kucinich endorsement from Al, he sort of seemed to be agreeing with DK. But wouldn't say so.

2. will end when journalists finally are proud enough to call themselves

professionals and have some sense of pride, or ethics as to what their job is (used to be)instead of looking for the big prize--looking to make a name--looking to make the big bucks--that last is probably the most important to today's roped in , so called, "journalists". The most important thing is to change the corporate takeover of our press.

10. journalism is so dead

there's no way they could have gotten away with this even a few years ago.

I, too, think this is the biggest story of our time. The death of journalism.

It's well-documented in a movie called "The Insider". A very important movie.

6. Right of the pages of Mein Kampf.

Hitler spoke of propaganda as something you fed to the stupid masses insofar as they could comprehend what you said. It had to be simple. It has to be repeated over and over again. It didn't have to be factual because only a few at the top could possibly comprehend the complexity of the truth.

7. sounds familar to me .....

"It has to be repeated over and over again. It didn't have to be factual because only a few at the top could possibly comprehend the complexity of the truth."

Getting bigger every day

He's America's Joseph Goebbels. As a 21-year old Young Republican in Texas, Karl Rove not only pimped for Richard Nixon's chief political dirty tricks strategist Donald Segretti but soon caught the eye of the incoming Republican National Committee Chairman, George H. W. Bush. Rove's dirty tricks on behalf of Nixon's 1972 campaign catapulted Rove onto the national stage. From his Eagle's Nest in the West Wing of the White House, Rove now directs a formidable political dirty tricks operation and disinformation mill.

Since his formative political years when he tried to paint World War II B-24 pilot and hero George McGovern as a left-wing peacenik through his mid-level career as a planter of disinformation in the media on behalf of Texas and national GOP candidates to his current role as Dubya's "Svengali," Rove has practiced the same style of slash and burn politics as did his Nixonian mentor Segretti.
