HUBRIS: The Selling of the Iraq War
So much to answer for......will they never be brought to justice?......and by "they" I mean the four horsemen of the apocalypse: Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz and Rumsfeld!
They are the ones that ruined America and took the country right to the edge of collapse and for what?
All I can say is that I am quite thankful that I had the opportunity to leave the U.S. on 6 short months after the war began and feel good knowing that my tax dollars did NOT go into supporting this debacle.
I only hope that America can get itself back on track and reverse the awful damage that has been done. The rule of law has all but collapsed in the country and even now, as much as I want to cheer for Obama and as much as I support him, he may be engaging in impeachable offenses by killing Americans without due process of law. Actually, the constitution applies due process to all "persons", not just citizens. The language of the 5th Amendment reads:
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a
presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval
forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall
any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor
shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived
of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." (Emphasis added).
It will take a long time to rebuild America and make things right, again. Let's hope that by admitting the failures of the past, Americans can come to the realization that things need to be reformed and it's former glory can be regained.
