Last Sat. (Aug. 13) we were in Tahoe for the Sammy Hagar concert, at a pre concert bbq,,,
Someone was talking about Cindy Sheehan, and to my surprise my girlfriend who opposed the Iraq war from the start, repeated some smear B.S. she heard on fox or CNN, and another woman jumped on the bandwagon.
The other woman started spewing GOP talking points and I figured I would keep my mouth shut and just see how in-informed she was. She spewed that Saddam was another Hitler, Iraq was BEHIND 911, world is a better place because we got Saddam out of power ... ... ...
I only said one thing, Excuse me but it is a proven fact that Iraq was not behind the 911 attacks.
My god - what is going on here ... ... ...
How come, otherwise; intelligent, well educated professionals can believe all these Fox, CNN, GOP talking points?
Is it that because they are authorities - we must put our trust in them?
Because of the 911 tragedy Are we co-dependent, destined to be in denial and remain in a bad relationship for fear of the unknown????
