Please answer my question!

  I have been expecting, everyday, that some of the
information of things this administration has been doing and
still is doing will cause the news and the politicians and
citizens to totally revolt or make lots of noise.  People are
just not used to taking the abuse that this administration
puts out.  My question:  Are we the only ones that know about
all of the things, 911, 2000 and 2004 elections, wiretapping,
leaking, etc.?  You know everyone k nows just what we know. 
Why don't they do something?  I sinply cannot believe that
they just do not believe it.  Are they afraid?

1. No one cares...

That's why no one does anything. As long as they can get by, have food and a job and not have too many hassles, they don't care....

3. That's why B*sh's poll numbers go down only when gas prices go up.

7. Yep..

Bread and Circuses my friends, bread and circuses.

The Roman Emperors of old knew it, and the Bush administration knows it too.

6. IMO there is going to have to be some way to

investigate the ethics and morals of these people running for office. Instead we just elect the one that has the most money backing them. I cannot believe that the reps and senators really do not care. It seems any one of them would jump at the chance to turn this illegal bunch in. They would be a hero, but maybe a broke hero.

8. Most people don't have time to keep current on what's happening

right under their noses. They listen to RW radio going back and forth to their low paying jobs and that's where they get their news. A lot of these people still think Iraq attacked us on 9-11.

9. yeah, they do and this afternoon I called my

sister-in-law, a dem, to get her to watch C-Span in the morning and I found out she had never heard of an inside job on 911. Where has everybody been for the last six years?

Sure they know but fear confrontation because what might happen could be worse than what is going on. Even though the upside could be tremendous.
