It is so, because we say so............

I grew up in a country other than the US. It was a police state and despite have 'elections', it was effectively a dictatorship, albeit well disguised at times. On of the key capabilities of the then government was to invent facts to suite their needs. Have 'security' personnel testify in court to events that did not occur using fabricated evidence. Events this week with the current incumbents of the White House grimly remind me of those days. The 9/11 Commission provides physical evidence that an someone is physically in the US, when the White Claims that he was meeting with terrorists in Europe on the same day and time. When confronted with this Dick Cheney simply dismisses the physical evidence as 'wrong' since it does not match his version of the truth. I hope Americans realize what a scary path we are on. Where the powers that be chose to believe their own lies and rhetoric in spite of overwhelming hard evidence that they plain screwed up. What happened to honor, integrity and truth. Oh, well, I forgot, these are politicians were are dealing with, and in this case money hungry, profit driven politicians.
