You left somebody out

Who's culpable? The Shrubbites, the media, the political institutions, and the people. How many wrote to protest our government's actions either in the case of our fomenting a coup in Venezuela (personally, given the USGs past behavior, I don't believe for a moment that our involvement in the coup attempt was limited to some supportive words from a government official) or in the government's reaction to 9/11 or our attack on Iraq or yada, yada, yada? I know I did but I also know that the reaction I got to my letters to my elected officials told me I was spittin' in the wind.
