CREATING REALITY WITH DICK, DONALD & GEORGE W
"It's not a matter of what is true that counts but a matter of what is perceived to be true." --Henry Kissinger
Here are two things you must do to clearly see beyond the fog of perception that hides the true reality of the morally corrupt Cheney/Rumsfeld & Bush administration.
ONE , Watch the PBS documentary THE DARK SIDE .
This damning 90-minute exposé clearly and brilliantly establishes, through more than 40 interviews with CIA veterans, journalists, politicians and others, that Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld were the ones who ignored, suppressed and manipulated intelligence after the 9/11 attacks to lead us into war with a country that had nothing to do with our attackers.

TWO, Read Ron Suskind's " The One Percent Doctrine " but if you don't have time than you must read Gary Kamiya's SALON review LICENSE TO LIE which covers all the bases and then some more ~ particularly pursuant to how Bush was often left out of the Cheney/Rumsfeld loop and relegated to the role of oblivious cheerleader.
Excerpts: Suskind all but comes out and says what many have suspected: that Bush, although a man of deep faith -- he reads Scripture or a religious tract every morning -- is grossly intellectually unqualified to be president. Again and again, Suskind describes scenes that display his disengagement, his lack of curiosity, his ignorance of the most rudimentary facts...
Cheney and Rumsfeld, Suskind writes, viewed Bush as an inferior, the child of their contemporaries. A master at bureaucratic stealth, Cheney quietly orchestrated the war, which was "about the only matter on which all three agreed ... So, as America officially moved to a detailed action plan for the overthrow of Hussein, only three men would be in the know: Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld.... "
Cheney's strategy of keeping Bush in the dark, Suskind argues, went back to Watergate. The break-in and violation of laws was not the problem for Cheney, Suskind writes: The problem was that Nixon should have been "protected" from knowing about it. It was his knowledge that ultimately led to his undoing. Keeping information from Bush allowed the president to say anything without ever being held accountable..
Someday in the future, if the Democratic Party manages to transform itself from a cowering shadow to something approaching sentience, perhaps what really happened during the Bush era will be publicly debated ... That centrist Democrats like Hillary Clinton cannot clearly reject Bush's catastrophic war seems to reflect their deeper inability to articulate, or perhaps even to understand, two things: that Iraq has severely damaged our national security, and that the process by which the Bush administration sold their war has severely damaged our democracy."
