Lies and more lies

A Lie of Historic Proportions
The evidence is overwhelming, compelling, and alarming that George and his indecent bandits traitorously had intelligence fabricated to fit their goal of invading Iraq. The criminals foisted a Lie of Historic Proportions on the world. It was clear to many of us more aware people that George, Condi, Rummy, the two Dicks: Cheney and Perle, Wolfie, and most effectively and treacherously, Colin Powell, lied their brains out before the invasion. The world was even shown where the WMD'S were on the map. We were told that the “smoking gun” could come at any time in the form of a “mushroom cloud” or a cloud of toxic biological or chemical weapons. Does anyone remember duct tape and plastic sheeting?

All wars are started with lies. Hitler told the German people that Poland had attacked Germany in order to trick them into invading first. FDR provoked the Japanese into the attack on Pearl Harbor then acted like it was a total surprise to trick America into WW2. Israel claimed Egypt was about to attack them in 1956, and (using the Soviet invasion of Hungary as a distraction in the media) invaded the Sinai.

So, all wars of conquest begin with lies. History proves that. Indeed it is hard to find a single war where those that started the war did not resort to lies to get things going.

What makes this different is that in the age of the Internet, the lie has been forced into the light while the war itself is still ongoing. And THAT is what makes this lie historic. The lies and liars stand exposed while the war started with theirlies is still killing and crippling our young men and women in uniform. The consequences of the lies are still before us in those flag-draped coffins the liars have tried so hard to conceal from us.

The Constitution of the United States does not authorize the government to lie to the people and the Tenth Amendment prohibits the government from arrogating that right to itself. Therefore, the moment the Bush administration lied to the people and to the Congress, they acted unconstitutionally, and illegally. Bush's lies that sent our kids off to be killed and crippled in a war of conquest are not only illegal, they cast doubt on the very legitimacy of a government that failed to act to safeguard the people from those lies.
