Subject: RE: BS: Bush's Secret Plan to End the War
Political animals do NOT admit error. They assign blame and then proceed to implement solutions. That way, we all forget wht went wrong in the first place.

Canada has a peron in the Post Office who seems to have had an expense account on which he signed all the cheques. To the tune of $2000000 over five years. The receipts seem to have gone to the cleaners with his suit and the Canadian people. So, we will implement a system whereby someone else signs the cheques in future. I don't doubt that he will not serve any time, and he will not be made to pay the money back. I know that's small potatoes on a world scale, but it is an indication that we all have something very wrong with our governments. These people do not want to serve their country; they want to get what they can and screw the rest of us. Not a revelation to me, but rather it's a discomforting thought.

When a CEO of a major company becomes the VP of a country, and the company then gets contracts in a war that he helped engineer--well, am I the only person who thinks the picture is a bit fuzzy?

And the American people are considering voting for these thieves? Hard to believe. Very hard to believe.
