14. "But mainstream America still seems unable to digest the horrific reality

"... that the MP's testimony underscored: that Senator Coleman's McCarthy-like hearings are but a smoke screen for a crime of horrific proportions.

That's because "America" is past tense.

We must face the reality that, for those of us who care, the task is one of re-establishing "America":

In Jan 2005, I posted here at DU that the outcome of allowing the stolen national election of 2004 to stand was essentially to render "America" to its status in Jan 1775. The message remains -- until we stop pretending we are a Constitutional democracy and begin acting to remove the ruthless, illegal, neocon plutocracy founded by Bu$h, Scalia and the other neoconsters, we will be the accomplices of even more atrocities.

This is just one of those atrocities, for those needing a reminder:


"May 19, 2005 | Dilawar was an Afghan farmer and taxi driver who died while in custody of American troops at a prison in Bagram, Afghanistan. This sketch by Thomas V. Curtis, a former Reserve MP Sergeant, shows how Dilwar was chained to the ceiling of his cell.

Peace.
