“It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate.”

"It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate." Even when faced with a cancerously corrupt government...sad.

Whatever happened to Courage? Are we so easily yoked and saddled simply by the cry of 'Terror!' from the government? We have faced more foreboding enemies than 'terrorists'. When will we recognize the same tactics among our leaders?

Corruption IS on the increase. All you have to do is watch the democrat congress. The most recent development with Turkey caused by the congress of our country was a willful and deliberate act by congress to undermine the effort to stabilize Iraq. This is an act of treason perpetrated strictly to increase the possibility of a loss in the struggle and loss of freedom for a people that desire it. All for the chance to blame all the resulting problems on GW. For the US congress to intentionally incite a possible invasion of Iraq by Turkey in order to create an untenable situation for our troops for a political advantage is absolute treason. ANYONE that has any knowledge of current events and then votes for this corrupt group can only be doing so because they desire the total destruction of this country and all it has ever stood for.
