So -
To finalize the perfect symmetry of this American Story.
In 2003, "Senior high level members of the Administration" - most likely Karl Rove - outed the identity of a covert CIA operative, Valerie Plame to the media. It was done as retribution towards her husband, Joseph Wilson, for having the nerve to show their lies to be lies.
The leak was a traitorous move, disrupting one of America's major covert operations, working in a very critical area at a very critical time.

If Karl Rove was involved in this - which it is looking increasingly likely that he is - Bush & Cheney were also involved.
There's More:
Ever since the uncovering of
Valerie Plame, their main goal, recreational war for profit in Iraq, has been subverted by their need to cover up their lies to rationalize that same war.
Increasing percentages of their efforts have been going to bury the body, the body that exposed them for liars. Iraq is a shambles as a result. Afghanistan is a shambles, with Taliban regaining control, as a result.
The Bush Administration lied to get us into the Iraq war, and everything since then has been lies to cover up that initial lie.
Would it be hard to believe that they might have been lying about EVERYTHING?
Like 9/11?
Like the General Election(s)?
Enter John Kerry. A man who made his career in Washington investigating the criminal elements in many a previous Neocon Scam -
BCCI, anyone?

How about some Iran-Contra?

A John Kerry victory in November would have been disastrous. We would still be in the horrific mess we're in, but the Neocons would be pointing their fingers at him and blaming him for the problems. I mean, 9/11 was Clinton's fault, even though Georgie had been on the throne for 9 months at that point - you can see how Iraq would have been Kerry's fault.
America's Destiny - the concept that the "good guys" (America, duh) always win, and they always wear a white hat - a simplistic concept the Neocons base their fundamental misguidings on. Derived from concepts that Leo Strauss, godfather of the modern Neoconservative movement, developed while watching Gunsmoke and Perry Mason. Sophisticated.

Wouldn't it be super friggin' AHSOME to show them the true meaning of American Destiny?
Enter John Kerry, Special Investigator. The man returns from the ashes, to bring down the filth.
Once more, for old time's sake, Senator? Do that which you do best - investigate - and bring down this criminal cabal that has seized America's reins?
Even Darth Vader knows - "IT IS YOUR DESTINY."
