Hi Bob,

Thank you for your insightful piece. Speaking for myself and people I know around me, I can say that I have scandal fatigue. The Bush Administration has done so much evil so quickly and forcefully that I can't figure out where to start. Every time I pick one issue, another one comes along and prevents me from acting effectively on the first. Why bother protesting Iraq when I know people's votes are being stolen and opponents of the war will never be counted?

We don't have a national discussion on important issues because the Bush and the Republicans don't want one. They do what they want to do and they don't care what Americans think. So, they twist the facts, attack the opposition, offer false choices, set up straw men, parse words, catapult the propaganda, use phony terror alerts, slander and libel good people, and spin, spin away. Now they're even repeating bin Laden's own propaganda and stating it as fact. They do this because all they care about is creating confusion and chaos so they can do what they want, no questions asked. If voters knew the contempt Republicans have for the American people and our democracy, there would be no Republican party.

Our best hope is that enough people start to see this game for what it is... a perversion of our government by radical elitists who are stealing us blind and madly covering it up. Why do they hate America?
