they keep getting burned is because they just don't get it about this regime. They can see how bad it is, but they figure they can't believe their eyes because the U.S. cannot be this irresponsible. SURPRISE! It is this irresponsible.

I ran into this in the run-up to the war with regular people. I said "There is no proof of all these WMD, Iraq cannot attack in 45 minutes." Intelligent people who aren't necessarily Bush-lovers said, "No way, he wouldn't lie to that extent." Also that we wouldn't go to war without a damn good reason.

Welcome to the new millennium, this is not your father's U.S.A.
