Well, here we go again. The Bush/Rove political machine is doing their FEAR & TERROR act for the American people.
"Georgie" has been spewing the usual idiocy and the closer we get to the election, the more he will spew.
He finally admitted today that this administration had "secret" prisons. They have done their best to keep that on the back burner but now have decided they need to bring some of their torture victims to the front of the class in order to keep "terrorism" the number one issue.
Moving the alleged architect of 9/11 to Gitmo for a "trial" will hold the headlines and secure more support from their base for a while.
The administration's torture of this man makes a "trial" impossible. If this case ever reached a courtroom with charges and an attorney for the defense, it would be doomed and the administration knows that.
But they MUST stir the fear of the base until November. Americans aren't going to fall for the "Ted is marrying Fred" tactic again. Too many lives have been lost in Iraq. IRAQ is issue number 1 in this election and "Georgie" knows he MUST shift the attention from him to the "enemy."
I think it won't work this time. I think the American people are waking up to the strategies of Rove/Bush. I think the PEOPLE may finally have a say again.
For a while I wasn't sure our country would survive these monsters. I was losing hope that the tide of evil would ever turn.
But I'm beginning to hope again. And that's a dangerous thing in the political environment which currently exists because of Rove/Bush. Rove is as evil as a human being can be. Bush is dangerous but it's not all his fault. Rove, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Rice are all smart enough to know what's happened. But "Georgie" can fall back on the "Dufus" defense: "Duh, I didn't know what I was doing."
Sadly, it will take years if not decades for history to demonstrate clearly what these guys REALLY did. But it will happen.
The only way they can turn this around is to have another "attack" conveniently take place between now and November. I wouldn't put that past them but I hope it doesn't happen. November 3rd we'll know what the next two years will hold. I'm hopeful again.
Everyone PLEASE VOTE!!
