Why is it that when people on the street, especially those under 30 years of age, are asked questions like who is Donald Rumsfeld or Tony Blair they don't know and don't seem to care? Indifference can kill. Just ask the Germans of the Weimar Republic.hourly12000-01-01T12:00+00:00http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/88712Methinks the latter. The evidence is disturbing. Sheeple are easily herded and cravenly docile. People are forthright and intelligent and stand up for their rights. I would like to think that my fellow Americans are resolute homo sapiens who take their US Constitution seriously but sadly the...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/59311The American middleclass has become an endangered species. A recent book called, "The Two Income Trap," catalogues the various pitfalls that await Americans who think they can live a middleclass life until or unless one of the two incomes is lost due to an accident or lay-off. The reality is that...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/54278There are lots of warning signs in life. For individuals it can mean getting so fat that walking up a flight of stairs brings on heavy breathing or it could be a yellow traffic light that flashes in ample time for a motorist to slow down and stop for the red light to follow. For societies there...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/52343America is sinking under a deluge of lies from it's so called leaders like GW Bush, Cheney, Delay and others in the Republican hierarchy. Lies about the war in Iraq being a war on terrorism are so patently false and perversely untrue that one wonders what Americans must be thinking as more and...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/35493Never in the history of the USA has there been a more inept, dishonest or disastrous administration than that of George W. Bush. Bush lied and cheated his way into the office and then, even though the majority of Americans had voted against him, he acted as though he had a mandate to implement a...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/22649America is supposed to be a democracy. But it isn't. The American government today is a capitalist tool for only the richest capitalists who can afford the bribes. The word for that is not "democracy" but "plutocracy." The way things are supposed to work is that candidates are nominated by a...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/17750Americans are either the most gullible people in the world or the most deceived by their media. The American government pumps out lies on a regular basis that the mass media does little to filter or correct and so this raw and unexpurgated sewage is sent untreated to the American people as if it...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/14564On September 17, 2002, the US published a document called The National Security Strategy. It was written largely by Condoleeza Rice after much input from President Bush and his Neo-Conservative advisors like Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle and others. It was a declaration that the...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/spyinthesky5/8536Jay Leno sometimes takes his microphone and goes out to the streets of Los Angeles and stops people passing by to ask questions that you would think they could answer. Like who's the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court? Who's the Attorney General? The Secretary of State? More often than not he gets...
