I've been keeping quiet about it for now. Most of you already know about my political affiliations, & the downfall of my freedoms, freedoms of the net, & the failure of not only my country's but the world's economy since the far right got into power... not by the popular vote (majority), but by the electoral college.

So I'd be just wasting my breath repeating my opinions again.

I'm not a strict democrat, I will vote for a republican if I feel the peorson is the better candidate.

I am a former hippy too.

I'm a peace lover, but will be the first one to volenteer to kick a bully's butt.

If the guy I voted for, who did get the most votes, was president, the World Trade Center would still be standing. If we spent half the time, energy, & money as we did on weapons inspections, on addressing & negotating more serious issues in the middle east...like the Isreal/Palastine crissis, world terrorism would have been reduced to a minimum.

Things were handled wrong the day after the current administration was sworn in. Every mistake they made since then was to fix or cover their previous mistake...an then it grew into 911 & now this.

Of course, just like any good, well paid corperate management, blame it on something or someone else...especially someone who's not around to defend themselves, or someone nobody will listen to. That way they save face & get to keep their job.

There is always a slight chance (yeah, sure), I hope, that the gorvernment knows much more about the situation than they're able to tell the public (for security reasons) to justify their actions. Maybe the truth will come out after the war, but then again, whatever they say, would you believe them? All governments...even ours, have been caught in plenty of lies, or doing some pretty stupid stuff.

Whatever the truth, we may never find out from the government.
