Pretty much everything this administration has done... |
|
seems like plots to novels worthy of not much more than beach reading. Some that might even make half-way decent summer movies if cast properly.
But it's real life!

2. before 9/11, NO publisher would have approved a novel whose plot |
|
included: the patriot act, lying us into war, illegal wiretapping, cronyism, etc, etc, --it would have been deemed completely implausable. yet more proof that truth is, indeed, stranger than fiction, which at least has to make SOME pretense of being believable.

4. Not to mention the Delay antics |
|
A corrupt majority leader, his vast network, the "K Street Project", Abramoff, Mohammed Atta, Suncruz and the mob hit, last minute promotions to the Justice Dept. :wtf:
If someone had submitted this as a screenplay, they would have been laughed out of the office as a "conspiracy nut", or worse.

5. If the last five years had been a movie, the critics would have |
|
laughed it out of the box office. I can just hear the viewer comments now. "I don't mind suspending belief, but this movie asked too much of me."

|
of dollars in cash missing, lies, deceptions, and a host of certifiable psychopaths. Somebody certainly has got a lot to work with.

8. Not to forget: a major city drowned by criminal negligence. |
|
Thousands upon thousands of humans suffering (or not suffering anymore because they died) who did not have to, and would not if these mobsters hadn't secretly planned to, and hijacked the media$ and the Government($) since I can't remember when...
