  The Abu Ghraib photos..

  I can't stop crying.. Is it any wonder we are viewed as monsters by the rest of the world? I grew up believing that we were the good guys, that we helped the little guy.. I thought that we stopped the injustice in the world.. Now I find that we are its cause.. We are monsters, may God have mercy on our souls.. My entire belief system just came crashing down around me.. I'm literally ill over this..

  My question is this.. This administration has proven themselves to be liars and cheats on so many different occasions..How can people believe that they care anymore for the people of America than they do for the people of Iraq? What will they unleash on us if we balk at their plans? Will they do to Americans what they did to the people of Iraq that got in their way? To the people in this country who still believe that what this administration has America's interest at heart.. Why are they selling us off to China? Why are they taking our rights away? Why are they bankrupting our country? Why did KBR get a contract for new detention centers? Why are they spying on Americans? Why are they selling our public lands? How do we know that they are not securing the oil for themselves on America's dime?? They've lied about everything else, why should anyone believe they are not lying now?? We're supposed to trust them because they tell us so? You trust that they won't take the oil and try to control everyone in the world including the US? No one thinks it's odd that the areas all over the word that are rich with oil are now suddenly "claimed" hotbeds of terror activity?? I don't think they want to secure the oil for the US, I think they want to secure the oil to control the US and the rest of the world.. They've already shown that they will let oil companies gouge us, how bad will it be when they control all of the oil? I fear that they will soon have the whole world including America on its knees, and by then it will be too late. They have lied about everything, and I'd bet anything that they're lying about this too.. They don't care about America, if they did they wouldn't be destroying all that it stands for.. Their only concern is money, power, and profits.

  I implore the people of this nation to wake up.. Please wake up before it's too late..
