Silence is Consent

If you don't speak up you accept what is happening. This site was born out of the mainstream media's inability to cover the news. I am just an American cititzen trying to spread the word in the era of FCC consolidation, post 9/11 Patriot Act hysteria, hackable voting machines and war without end. I rant and post news items I perceive to be relevant to our current situation.

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
- Thomas Jefferson

Let me make sure I have this straight. In September '02 when the new product was released to us we are told that Saddam has WMD. A few out there were saying, "Oh no he doesn't". The one person who was the most outspoken was Scott Ritter, Is Scott Ritter Credible? Of course the Bushes did to him what they do to anyone who goes against the family, TARGET: SCOTT RITTER, The War Party gets ugly. Since they accused him of being a child molester the only place to find him now is in the world media, Scott Ritter: The search for Iraqi WMD has become a public joke. But I, for one, am not laughing.

So what happened? Well it seems that Mr. Ritter was right. Saddam never had WMD, after 1991. I think David Kay said it best:
"I don't think they existed," Kay told Reuters in a telephone interview on Friday. "What everyone was talking about is stockpiles produced after the end of the last (1991) Gulf War and I don't think there was a large-scale production program in the '90s," he said.
But Cheney and Scottie do not agree. So after Kay made that statement it had to be fixed. The family gets to him and over the weekend he makes this statement:
David Kay said in a US radio interview that he thought the CIA owed the president an explanation for warnings about the threat Iraq posed.
But of course everyone knows that the CIA did not make the false claims it was the Office of Special Plans. It is Cheney that owes the American people an apology and he can start by resigning. One more thing to think about. If we now know he didn't have any why the hell are we still spending money on this?

More on this and other subjects:

The justification for war
With the resignation of David Kay from the Iraq Survey Group, the pressure could not be greater on Blair to explain where he got the idea that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.

Masterful Machiavellianism
George W. Bush, with the help of his advisor, Karl Rove has mastered the art of portraying himself as a man of great principle, integrity, honesty, caring, compassion, and character. Some morning just tune in to C-Span's Washington Journal and listen to the callers sing his praises. The question becomes what do they find so inspiring and how have they come to their conclusion about Bush when most of the evidence does not back it up?

"I think that people need to be held responsible for the actions they take in life. I think that's part of the need for a cultural change. We need to say that each of us needs to be responsible for what we do." – George W. Bush in the first Presidential debate, October 3, 2000.
