Guest guest Posted August 18, 2003 Report Share Posted August 18, 2003 I can do nothing but stand in amazement at these governmental idiots. Actually, they are like little children who have not learned anything yet about respect. You could catch a child in the act of breaking a lamp because of let’s say playing ball in the house, and they might deny it. Or blame somebody else. But there would be a pretty good chance for your little child that he/she would learn more appropriate behavior, and morals. I don’t hold that same opinion of this government. I think that for many of the individual people in this government that their claim to being “chrisitains” is merely a ploy to 1. claim that their victories are “god’s” blessing and the god is on our side; and, 2. it shuts the mouths of many people who live here who would cry “injustice” had they been less accepting of governmental propaganda. Here we are, living in a nation where many of us say “with liberty and justice for all.” Course most of us don’t think that what that has come to mean to the government is that it means for the elite governing people, and corporations that enslave the rest of us living here in America. They lied about the reasons to be in Iraq, and, the lie they told was that there were weapons of mass destruction. We’ve got to control the spread of weapons of mass destruction, is pretty much what they said. I always objected to the idea of having a rule apply to the goose and not the gander. The US is the country in the world that is most populated with weapons of mass destruction, as well as weapons of other types of destruction. And that a country would invade another for a reason that the invading country itself is guilty of-------one can certainly ask the question about justice. Regardless of whether Hussein and his regime treated his own people with injustice, and that becomes a rationale for invasion----saving a people Again, even on that one, that is what is happening here as well. So, now, the use has spread radiation (a weapon of mass destruction) all over Iraq. And all over its own soldiers. Of course, when the soldiers are dying of “mysterious” diseases there, and the government won’t own up to the idea that it is radiation poisoning, or vaccination possoning, one would not expect the people who run this government to own up to responsibility to clean up Iraq of depleted uranium. And that would be a further question. What is the uranium depleted of? Its certainly still radioactive. Another piece of evidence that this government defines itself as the be all and end all of all of life-----redefining of words to suit its own purposes. Even the laws are full of words that specify definitions which are certainly not in the usage of the people of the United States. One would think that depleted uranium is harmless. I wouldn’t want to be shooting with it as my ammunition. And, to relate this to health and healing-----the same practices are applied to the medical, and food, areas of life by the federal government as are demonstrated here. Lack of responsibility while calling a people, all individuals, to be responsible to it. Remember folks, the government, all of it, FDA; SEC, DEA; all the abc’s, and all the various divisions of powers that actually are constitutionally established, are all supposed to be responsible to us, the people, who really have the sovereignty here. We need to start picking people in government who will respect that and return to us our own responsibilities for ourselves, without punishment for choosing to be responsible for ourselves, and be people who will face up to responsibility for themselves and their actions in government.
