Just You Watch

Watch this. I promise it is worth your time.

Think it's overexaggerated? The Project for the New American Century is real. The individuals who signed onto the statement of purpose in 1997: Dick Cheney. Donald Rumsfeld. Paul Wolfowitz. I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby. Jeb Bush. Any of these names ring a bell?

The video in the above link lays out clearly what is not a secret: the decision-makers in power are driven by an insatiable greed for corporate profit. When discussing what is best for America, what they really mean is what is best for corporations, what is best for their campaign contributors. A Never-Ending War, the likes of which Orwell only imagined, is the engine they need to drive their economy.

If you are not afraid, you should be. As John Kerry said, there are 35-40 other countries with more of an ability to manufacture weapons of mass destruction than Iraq had when Bush began the war. Who's next?
