On The Third Hand

Election Results

1. This election was all about the Middle East. However, Iraq is a diversion. As the army attacks Iraq, the US gov’t erodes rights at home by suspending habeas corpus, stealing private lands, banning books like “America Deceived” from Amazon, rigging elections, conducting warrantless wiretaps and starting 2 illegal wars based on lies. Soon, another US false-flag operation will occur (sinking of an Aircraft Carrier) and the US will invade Iran, (on behalf of Israel).
   Final link (before Google Books bends to gov’t demands and censors the title):
   America Deceived (book)

2. Yeah, right…

   If the US Govt could rig elections do you really think the Dem’s would have taken the Senate this month?
   If they could rig elections do you think 34 states would have been able to pass laws or constitutional amendments in the last year preventing Eminent Domain land seizures from being given/sold to private parties?

   Our current Government (indeed our whole system of governance) is far from perfect, but it has at least one saving grace - the open competition in information means the kind of conspiracy you suggest is occuring cannot be kept secret very long before it is discovered and put on the 24/7 News monster. If the claims in the book you link to can be verified, believe me they’ll get heard.
   And BTW, Amazon.com is a private company that can decide what merchandise it wishes to carry. Just because they decide not to carry a book you want them to doesn’t mean any censorship has occured.

3. And another thing to Fifth of November: If the US Govt could rig elections and do all the conspiracy things you claim, do you really think that the question of nuclear/chemical/biological weapons in Iraq would be such a controversy now? Wouldn’t it have been simpler to have a “chance discovery” “more significant than any other in this war” that “shows Saddam Hussein was closer to his dream of attacking the US on its own ground than even his most ardent foes believed?” THAT would be the Reichstag fire you claim so many things are, and no wmd’s were discovered, so we have to defend our nation against the foes of Western Civilization and liberty and equality for women and gays the old fashioned way, persuade one uninformed idiot at a time.

   The relationship of global warming to Islamic terrorism is like starvation to uncontrolled arterial bleeding. Sure starvation will get you in a week or so, but the bleeding will get you before you can call for help.

   Now I forgot what I was going to comment about Bill Whittle’s perceptive piece.
