Amen. It has been the people that have basically let w & dick do as they damn well pleased. Also, I think that the people did not do much to consider the congressional representatives that we allow to go to d.c. and work for us. But the biggest hump to have to get over is how the consolidated(illegally) mainstream media as been subverted to become a distraction industry to keep our attentions away from what the crooks are doing to us in real life. And even the educational system is pretty much a total failure in not producing the inquizitively educated people a democracy needs to maintain a watch on what others do in our name. Thus the United States of Vegetables.
With all that, we earned what we have and deserve a lot of it.

G.W. could not have done what he did without our silent acquiescence. Just like there would be no bubble if we were not as greedy as the bright chaps on Wall Street.

With a million dead in Iraq, including 4,000 US service men and women, “oops” doesn’t quite do it for me.
