6. Re: Military Contracts....
*Sigh*...

The sad fact of life is that GWB and the extremist religious right (I can't call them Republicans as they don't fit the conservative Republican agenda they have to be classified as something new and scary.) has so bleeping much power and is allowed to run unchecked as well as being able to actively brag about treasonous activities that the lesser things don't even make the radar scope anymore.

I can only dream of the day when this country will be returned to it's populous and held accountable by it's populous. However there are a number of things that are preventing this from happening:
-Public Schools not teaching learning skills but rote memorization and the 'Every Child Left Behind' program
-Christianity teaching that we should not have pride in ourselves
-Corporate control of our media and news

In any case if you want these contracts investigated you have to find a news agency that does not have connections to the contracts in question but since the media corps own so much of America we have to ask more why would they want to shed light on this problem?
