Full me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. It seems to me that this old maxim is the take away message from the Hill poll mentioned in Kevin Drum's post today.
Read here how easy it still seems to be to fool human beings into supporting, even clamoring for, war.
Shame on the Neocons and shame on us.
It's in the genes. Maybe someday, eons from now, a mutant gene in the ageless process of evolution will emerge which will change all that. Survival of the fittest will benefit those humans in our homo sapien, sapien species who eschew violence.
The news media will fight it though. Everyone getting along doesn't sell.
