The way we all turned our heads and let tyrants take over our land, start illegal wars, kill a million people, send 4000 soldiers to their graves, torture unknown thousands to death, and bring the nazis back from hell to rule over us, was it worth it?

The way we've just allowed these monsters to get away with whatever atrocity they can dream up, the way they've turned the whole world against us, the way we've allowed them to rob us blind and ruin our economy, all in the name of safety and security and uninterrupted shopping, was it worth it?

All the dead, all the tyranny, all the torture, all the piracy and corruption, all the fascism, all the insults, all the racism, all the paranoia, all the hatred, all the rising gas and food prices, all the uncertainty, all the arrogance, all the fear, all the terror, all the panic and all the lies, was it all worth it?

You bet it was. The people who did all this, with our unfettered approval, made out like bandits, so yes, it was all worth it, in real cash dollars and cents. Worth every ****ing dime.

Now, would it be worth it to impeach the assholes or punish them for their many, many atrocities and crimes? Nah, that would just be too much trouble. It just ain't worth it.

i dread thinking about what's in the future when we don't. and i hate believing that we won't. but that's the writing on the wall.
i am so pissed i'm on the verge of just turning away. a body can't take this shit relentlessly forever. and it's been years, years and years.

you've framed it in a powerful way. i can't argue your point, i agree completely. IMPEACH now.

2. You are right on, Raptor....
   
You've framed this in a powerful way.

On first reading, I thought you were talking about the "Islamofascists" who allegedly did this to us, but I see you're referring to our very own monsters. The death of our country can be entirely put at the feet of CheneyBush Inc. False Flag. And we colluded in our own destruction. :cry:

4. For the PNAC
   
it was dream come true. Thats why I am convinced Bush/Cheney knew an attack was imminent and just let it happen. They knew a catastrophic event would allow them to pursue their goals unfettered by those annoying American laws so they LET IT HAPPEN. Color coded terrorist alerts, anthrax, false stories of false threats...all the doing of a regime hell bent on hijacking Americas military to use it to secure more oil and threaten the world.

If you are card carryin member of the PNAC hell yes it was worth it. If you are an average citizen of this nation just trying to earn an honest living...not so much. Under Cheney/Bush this nation has become an evil cesspool of fear and threats and lies.

8. People beholden to military-industrial complex don't make such plans and then hope for a green light
   
They make sure the plans will be implemented, the power structure remains as is, and quite profitable. It doesn't boil down to random coincidence.

15. I believe, and always will believe, that they let it happen.
   
9/11 allowed these criminals to put their evil plan into action with little or no resistance. If someone spoke up, it was easy to silence them..."We are keeping America safe."

I never in my wildest dreams imagined that our country would be taken over by criminals like these. They are an 8 year black mark on the history of this country.

After Cheney blatant remark, they do not give a shit what we think.

Cheney told it like it is.  Only a fool runs the country by opinion poll.  Oh wait, we did have a President who ran his administration that way.  And that method LED DIRECTLY TO 9/11.

Freaking idiots.

Oh, Cliff
Sometimes it must be difficult not to feel as if
You really are a Cliff
When fascists keep trying to push you over it
Are they the lemmings?
Or are you Cliff?
Or are you, Cliff?
