It's time we toss out BOTH corrupt parties and start all over again. But let's start with impeaching the whole rotten lot in the White House RIGHT NOW.

John Stauber, we need you and more like you. Thanks for making it clearer to me how the bush administration sold this war to many average Americans.

I found it extremely hard to wrap my mind around why so many people allowed these guys to 'hold up' America, at gun point, and rob us for everything we had. Our houses, our jobs, our livelihood are now gone, or soon to be gone because of bush and his cronies.

See you guys in the bread lines.

1)The surge worked.Rumsfeld, Cheney, and Bush totally screwed up by not getting enough troops to Iraq much earlier.2)WMD..none worth mentioning were found but Brit,Russian,US,French intelligence all thought WMD 3)No Al Qaeda in Iraq but there sure are Al Qaeda now and yes it is the fault of Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld.Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld totally executed the war incompetently.This does not make Saddam nor Al Qaeda good.4)Valerie Plame.Yes Bush and Cheney are scum.

John Stauber is the man. But he does need look at the flip side, BUSH is 911, he and his buddies are the only people who could pull off that crap. So he is telling part of the truth, and that is a good start. The causalities are not only the people of the USA but the entire planet.

Osama is laughing his ass off at the monumental stupidity of the Bush adminstration; why don't people see this? Can they be that stupid? If you haven't, watch Eisenhower's farewell address and his invention of the term "the military industrial complex"; if you understand what he was saying, you'll understand why we're in Iraq. I'm a veteran who voluntered to serve in Vietnam, so save your bile and pseudo-patriotism for someone else.

Great interview! John Stauber... what a brilliant guy. I learn lot things just watching this video.

We should study our next president closely and not fooled by them with lies.

Endless analysis, but not solution....

What does the think the solution is "Vote Democrat?" The Democrats are the other party of US Imperialism.

[dcohen6]

Excellent!

Right wingers think they're patriotic, but they're leading us into messes like the Iraq War. A generation ago they did the same thing in Vietnam. It's time they surrendered power.
