What are the SIMPLEST websites for exposing Bush / BFEE to right-wingers?
For better educated people, there's plenty of good ones.

But for people who think in black & white terms, are there any good websites that are less full of nuance, written at more of a 3d grade level like so many right-wing sites?

1. They see what they want to see
If they don't believe Richard Clarke it's just going to take time.

2. SO much criminality, almost becomes incomprehsible. They are Monsters.
Serious gangsters, these. They go where the money is. Take the S&Ls (or BCCI or BNL or Iraqgate or Iran-Contra or Barrick Gold or Wackenhut, etc etc etc). That means their criminality, by its very extent in space, time, and corruption level becomes almost too complex to remember, let alone re-tell. Like 9215's sig line says:

"The individual is handicapped by coming face-to-face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists." -- J. Edgar Hoover

That doesn't mean we can't learn or spread the good word. Many great journalists have helped preserve history and, by extension, democracy. www.ConsortiumNews.com is great and well-written resource, as are MANY others.

GOOGLE is my friend. Have yours use it as an index for the world's biggest book. Key words, such as "Bush" + "BCCI" yield lots of good info.

Well, back to the point of your thread. Here's an overview of what happened in the S&L scandal -- just ONE multi-billion BFEE rip-off.
