Our government is lying so well that they are even beginning to believe what they say. Believe me, there is no respect for the US out there in other countries. People look at Bush and at us and wonder how we could have elected such a man to govern our country. We may be a super power, but nobody wants to call on us. I've been abroad, and I have friends abroads, they are laughing at us.

Even before the United States became a "government", lies were told. Revolutionists propaganized their agenda to save themselves from being imprisoned or hanged by the governmental authorities in England, Spain, France, Germany, and other countries they had "left" of been "expelled" from.
Americans vote for those who they believe will represent them; but, in reality, the people we vote for are only "looking out" for themselves and their own families.
I am a descendant of an Indian tribe, federally recognized, receiving Federal and state funds; but, my own tribal council is more concerned with the benefits they can personally garner by being on the tribal council than they are about addressing housing, medical care, and jobs within their own tribe.
Very few people are concerned about anyone other than themselves and their immediate family. Native Americans, at one time in history, were dedicated to their clan, family, elders. No more. Today, only the Jewish community stands for solidarity.

Every administration since the beginning of time has been secretive, most people now believe that the Bush administration is the most secretive of them ALL. Quite frankly, sometimes i dont know if i believe what bush says most of the time, he seems like a hypocrite stubborn man at times...he doesn't like facing the facts....then again, these are opinions, i dont really believe opinions either, so whatever

Every government, in every country on the planet will, to a certain extent, keep secrets from the general public for national security reasons. I would assume you are referring to criticisms lobbied against the U.S relating to it's war on terror. Truth be told, you probably don't know exactly what is going on in these countries but that's to be expected with military protocol. As far as reasoning behind the war, it's hard to say. It depends on how much you trust your president.

They probably keep everything a secret from us to keep us from knowing the truth, I've always wanted to know the documents of all the classified facts that have mysteriously occurred in the past as well.

We are now a nation of children, instead of a nation of informed citizens (purpose of the 1st Amendment) that may actively take part in our limited government as was intended.

Yeah our gov't is lying to us. They have been for years. Every politician that has been elected for years has lied to us. The gov't doesn't want us to know that they are out for themselves and don't give a hoot about you or me.
People from other countries can see the bigger picture.
