Never Forget

  • ....that it didn't have to be this way.


  • ....that Serious Thinkamators such as Richard Bruce Cheney and Billy Fucking Kristol have been -- and continue to be -- wrong about everything.


  • ....that there are people who get paid to lie to you.


  • ....that people tell themselves that everything changed so they can avoid realizing how very little has actually changed.


  • ....that Saddam had nothing to do with the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.


  • ....that powerful people in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan had everything to do with the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.


  • ....that Bush airily dismissed a detailed briefing just a month before the attacks, and stared blankly into space and kept reading My Pet Goat after learning of the attacks. Then he ran and hid.


  • ....that we still have no idea who is responsible for the anthrax attacks right after 9/11. The trail seemed to stop when it was realized that it was a rather sophisticated milling process that was probably in the U.S.


  • ....that the Bush family has been doing business with the bin Laden family for a long time.


  • ....that a select few are making a lot of money from a lot of misery.


  • ....that "democracy" really means "a country that will sell us something we want at a price we can agree upon, regardless of what its own citizens want or need".


  • ....that you're on a need-to-know basis. For your own good.

Feel free to add your own.
