The lies must cease now.

[kentuck]

They are a threat to our nation. A democracy cannot survive on lies. The lies on Iraq. The lies about Foley. The lies about the NIE. The lies about WMD. The lies about the level of violence.The lies about everything. We need to get to the truth....even if it kills us...

[Moochy]

5. Truth from politicians.....What are you smoking anyway?

Politicians and fishermen....the truth is just not in them...

[ninkasi]

6. Yes, Kentuck

We need for the lies to stop. We need to be able to objectively view how neocon tactics are affecting our country. We need to stop the fear, the panic, the surrendering of the cherished freedoms which defined our country, and step back and get an honest picture of America's destruction from within.

It is the neocons, the ruthless, corrupt group which aims to seize unlimited power, and do away with the checks and balances which have served us so well for over 200 years. Their lies have accomplished in the space of just a few years, what terrorists could never accomplish, and that is encouraging animosity among the rest of us, something which weakens our country terribly.

From shipping American jobs overseas, and slashing the wealthy's taxes, by starting illegal, unjustified wars, they are transforming our nation from being the example of a great nation,to just another dictatorship, arrogant and corrupt.

Only the truth can set us back on the right path to take to restore us to what we always wanted, and tried to be. The America I was born in did not condone torture, or secret trials, or inability to have legal counsel, and the right to petition the judicial system in order to find out what we are being charged with. We should not have to give up any of our traditional liberties, and place the fate of our country into the grasping hands of a man not fit to be a trash collector.

8. lies upon lies

excuses, coverups, deflections, revisions, omissions, distortions.
There are many kinds of lies.

When a population cannot tell where truth lies, democracy is dead.
