How is it that there is all this talk about what we could have done

[blues90]

With all the money that has been spent on the Iraq occupation but yet well before the Invasion this money was not spent on any of these things . How is that ?

This is not to imply that the bush admin has not ramped up and lied and spent billions on an illegal war or that they have not raped the people of this country in un-countable ways , many of which may never know about like where the 9 billion went in Iraq .

But man , we must realize one thing and keep it in our heads , once anyone gets in the DC bubble they become a player in this bubble and do not represent the people at all , they simply grease the squeaky wheel to make them shut up and go away . This time the wheel is the oil companies and the corporations and as always the military industrial complex and not to leave out the medical industrial complex , the banks and the mortgage companies .

To say we need to keep the politicians feet to the fire is an exercise in futility , we have done this to some level but we will never have the power of the people fully behind this effort , not with the division in this country .

To say Hillary is a monster or to say Obama has a clean slate is the wrong program when fact is they are not so far apart . Lets hear it 4 years from 01/20/09 and then see how well we have done keeping feet to the fire and how Obama fairs when all is said and done provided he wins the seat .

The thing most important to remember are the
ones who provide the fire are the special interest groups and the major corporations and the main complexes , not the people .
