Those on top can't get arrested or even criticized. Since those on top are breaking

We know this is happening. The USA is going down the toilet fast and unless we can find anyone in power who believes in our original principles, people who haven't sold out to the corporations, then I'm afraid the game is lost. The fact that Bush came out and admitted he's a war criminal is proof that he knows he will not be touched. It's going to take some bold action on the part of the American citizenry to turn things around. I hate to even think of it. Ditto for me, Matt. We know this is happening.

The Bush family are the Fourth Reich, bought and paid for by the European banking cartels to destroy America. They are fascists and they are destroying the USA. They are not just destroying the constitution, they are using the Federal Reserve system to bankrupt America. It's soooooo bloody obvious, I just cannot understand why the American people can't see it and act accordingly. You have just one chance to save your country. You MUST remove Bush, Cheney and the NeoCon fascists from power and you must dismantle the Federal Reserve System. You have very little time left before the USA slides into a totalitarian state and the rest of the world will follow in hot pursuit.

ABC (as MSM as you can get) broke the story but since then, it's gone nowhere, at least nowhere in relation to where it should have gone. It's the Downing St. memo all over again.

ABC and WaPo are reporting on this, and you're using *that* as evidence that mainstream news *isn't* reporting on it? Who are these mythical "they" who ignore these issues? Hey you, yeah you, reading this: the news *is* reporting on it. It's *us* who isn't expressing our outrage to our representatives. It's *us* who aren't protesting. Get out there. Stop blaming *them*.

But then we've suspected for quite some time that the big, consolidated corporate media was not serving us well. Between their self-censorship and their emphasis on the goings and comings of celebraties, they are far from what the Constitution's authors meant by "the press".
