As you can see, I lived through ...Thank you, John. <BR/><BR/>As you can see, I lived through Watergate. On June 23, 1972 NO ONE could have forseen what the eventual outcome would be. <BR/><BR/>I think it IS about faith, prayer,etc. And it's also true that God only helps those who help themselves. So we've all got to keep writing, keep asking questions, keep putting the proverbial feet to the fire. I go back to my original point about 5% of the population holding an idea. I'm not sure what's going to convince me that we've hit that mark....I guess when I hear a "nonpolicy wonk" talk about the Downing Street Memo at a cocktail party....but let's see if we can see that happen. Then those of us writing in cyberspace can turn up the heat under the kettle and see if anyone blows off any steam!Diva of Demographicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02548751682340651281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12935759.post-1120142761681080592005-06-30T10:46:00.000-04:002005-06-30T10:46:00.000-04:00Considering that the American people are waking up...Considering that the American people are waking up to the fact that Bush was trying to get into a war with Iraq even before 9/11 and a government controlled spin machine took tiny scraps of intelligence and turned them into get Hussien propaganda that the American people swallowed hook line and sinker. I think Mr. Bush is in for a rude awakening of his own. I'm still waiting for a Democratic Congressional committee to investigate the war crime perpettrated by Bush and members of his cabinet on the Iraqi. First they planned a way to go into Iraq even before 9/11. Second they forced the intelligence community to come up with reasons to preemtively attack the Iraqi people. Third they lied to the American people to convince them that a war with Iraq is a good thing. Fourth they are responsible for every American who has lost his or her life in the war with Iraq. I suppose I could on and on, but the point is, his speech was unconvincing, and the American people, I pray, are going to do something about it. Keep writing. Keep the faith. We democrats will rise again. I pray for Iraqgate to begin.<BR/><BR/>JohnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
