We Deserve the Truth - then and now

Posted by Mary Mancini on August 5, 2005 under Uncategorized |

Americans deserve to know the truth - no matter how horrible. What tidbits in this story remind you of what’s going on now? Is it the cover-up? The accusation that the enemy is using propaganda to further their agenda? The smear campaign? The journalist on the government’s payroll?

Why, after all these years, have we learned nothing? Why hasn’t our government learned to trust us with the truth? Why haven’t we learned to be more skeptical of the lies our government tells us? Why in holy-hell are we giving away billions of dollars in subsidies and incentives to the nuclear power industry when we know it will heighten the proliferation risk?
