u.s. admits use of white phosphorous

cheney takes aim at iraq critics

see, now this is the kind of shit which makes me hoppin’ mad: the government lying about stuff, until the truth is uncovered independently, and then accusing Americans who lack faith in the system, of being unpatriotic. When really, given the piss poor track record, you’d have to be completely out of touch with reality to blindly believe anything which is issued from their collective mouth.

Where does it stop? If they commit torture and use toxic chemical weapons and lie about that, how on earth are we really to believe they didn’t lie about evidence in Iraq? When, exactly, are we supposed to suspend disbelief? As a kid, parents tell you when they catch you in a lie, that you have to earn their trust back. Didn’t Cheney’s parents tell him the same thing? Such a simple lesson, yet such a hard one for this administration to learn. I can’t imagine why.
