MSNBC Poll: 94% believe Bush misled (lied to) the nation over Iraq
Signs of the Times
28/11/2006
This is the latest in a series of polls that make it very clear that the vast majority of American citizens despise the Bush cabal and all that they have wrought, not only in the murder of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians, but in sullying beyond repair the decent reputation that America once had on the world stage.
What happened to democracy? What happened to the 'will of the people'? If the will of a large majority of the American people were to be exercised today, dozens of US politicians would be facing criminal charges tomorrow.
Why isn't it happening? Is the truth that today's 300 million American citizens live in what amounts to a covert but very real dictatorship? A system of government which denies them the most important right of all: to elect responsible "public servants" who will respond to the will of the people?
