    The tip of the iceberg?

    Once again GG you make many good points. But are not Bush, Cheney, Yoo, Bybee et.al. just the tip of the iceberg. The Bush family and the entire Republican party are equally involved. And the 59+ million Americans who voted for the Bushies and who endlessly support them are also equally involved.

    Not to take anything away from the totally egregious guilt of the Bush administration, but doesn't all of this entire mess bespeak of some terrible sickness that engulfs so much of the entire right wing of America. And though we may indict those at the spear point, the tip of this mess, musn't we, at some point come to grips with the entire right wing that has and is swallowing so many Americans in Kansas (what did ever happen to Kansas) Indiana and the entire South, as well as the 59+ million.

    What do we do about these people and how do we ever move forward. What disaster must occur before these people ever realize what they have done and are continuing to do, even now, and every day. All one has to do is listen to the likes of O'Reilly, Hannity, remember the now deceased Russert, listen to Coulter, Ingrahan, Noonan, Buchanan, Malkin, Limbaugh and all of the other, seemingly, sociopathics and the Religious Right that have long ago swallowed up the Republican party.

    Doesn't the hate just keep on coming from these people. Or am I just focusing on too much, all at once?
