Why the hell is everybody in Washington so timid about acknowledging what a complete clusterfuck the Iraq war has become?
I have wondered that for many a year now. The only conclusion I can come up with is, blackmail. I have thought that ever since it became know that the repuplicans had access to democrats computer server, before the last election. However, that does not in and of itself explain things, except to the extent that the over all mentality in the beltway has beome one of dirty poole –above and beyond the ubiquitous–and even spying.
It became even more apparent when it was reported that Bush has been spying on Americans since 2000. I believe Bush Cheney is spying on everyone, even his own. Hence, the blackmail of everyone. Which, if you go with that hypothesis, certainly could explain the fear to confront them on anything they do.
