Hi there - while I don't know if all the items you point out are accurate, I can offer somethings I recently learned in a sociology class I am taking in college. Basically, the foundation of the presentation was that all this "stuff" that goes on in the media - like with Anna Nicole's baby, with Brittney's hair, etc. is all just a method of "diverting" us from the true issues out there - like the one you asked.
Why people "can't" see it is because in America - people don't WANT to see it for the most part - ie. the one's who have the money and influence to divert our attention - do. To silly things that really don't matter. Away from things like Bush and his war crimes - I agree with you - and this is ultimately not about Bush but about money. There is a corporation that Vice President Dick Cheney sits on the board of - thereby, is making money off of - the continuance of war. This co is Haliburton. Mr. Cheney will earn over one million dollars off of this war. I would proffer this is blood money as I see it.
However, the Have's are not about to save lives if they can save a dollar. That is the way America is run - Whomever has the most dollars - wins. It is wrong. It is immoral. But until the underclass gets sick and tired of of being a piece in the machinery that makes fortunes for a few, a barely living wage for a lot, and nothing for the rest - a French Revolution style change of "how things are done - will not be done."
I hope this helps answer your question. In Sociology, I am learning that things rarely are what they appear on the surface. While they say it's about Al Quida, it's really about the money. Period.

Well, perhaps we just aren't as perceptive as they are. You really need keen eyes and minds to see Bush as a war criminal, because all the facts show that to not be true.
I don't mind criticism of Bush or conservative policies, but I do long for rational, logical, honest and sane criticism.

Your right about it I concur. We were supposedly looking for Osama - which was the objective - next we come up with Hassan, and we are sending more and more young men and women to fight a war that doesn't make sense. Whatever happened to the objective of finding Osama and where is he - right over here laughing at us.
