Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country - Hermann Göring 1944(Nazi)

Germans were once taught to hate all other countries, before they began expanding their empire.

I do feel that I was duped into originally supporting the war.
However if they ever produce yellowcake, I won't feel so manipulated.

No. I don't hate any other country at the moment. I'm pissed that Clinton didn't handle the first WTC attack properly, or follow through with his first airstrikes on Iraq, or withold his approval for N. Korea to build Nukes, or lie under oath in front of my kids, or get Osama when he had the chance. I'm amused by the fact that the democrats still vote for war funding, fail to produce a bill to balance the budget, address social security, or correct a corrupt welfare system they help create, and yet blame Bush for inactivity. I watch as democrats forego any substance to their positions and simply run their campaigns as anti-Bush, completely ignoring the fact that they failed to even attempt a better answer.
I laugh when liberals label as stupid a president who won the presidency both times than bigger margins than 25% of past presidents, while at the same time accusing him of being smart enough to fix two elections and create puppets of the Amercian population.

I was duped into supporting Clinton long ago and feel like I was manipulated by Clinton.
Bush on the other hand did exactly what I wanted any President to do in the issue of Iraq regardless of whether such President was Republican or Democrat.

All politicains tell you want they want you to hear. Especially in an election year anything that is being said is to get that party elected.
The liberal socialist NAZI party is no different than the liberals in the US trying to scare people into thinking the government is evil and trying to manipulate them.

Why single out Bush? We have been manipulated by politicians for two hundred years.

Personally I don't but I think that they have manipulated society's feelings and have created an overall environment of fear.
