Yes, they are. So why haven't the Dems started impeachment

proceedings? Why haven't the Dems denounced them as war criminals & liars in their endless series of "presidential debates," instead of playing word games about withdrawals limited only to "COMBAT" troops? Why have the Dems funded the ongoing criminal slaughter, every single time Bush requested it?

There are a few prominent names missing on your list of liars -- like Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, John Kerry, & the like.

Subversion of the Constitution

Why? Because they are as much a threat to freedom as the Republicans. They signed away their souls for scraps from the oligarchs' tables...

They have done nothing to repeal the Military Commissions Act and restore Habeas Corpus [Art I Sec 9 - written into the main body BEFORE the Bill of Rights]

They are Liars

And the reason that the Congress and the Senate won't do a damn thing is because they are all liars too. The Democrats and the Republicans both have their pockets stuffed with MIC money.

Both parties are on the same side - the Corporate and Military side - and they are giving corporate welfare out in mass and unbelievably funding this military.

Not a snow balls chance in hell that this Congress will Impeach.

Time for a real democracy without any Corporate representation. And none of the current members of Congress or the Senate would qualify.

Nor any of the running Presidential Candidates - they're all got pockets stuffed with tax payer funded military gold.

THEY ARE LIERS

AUGUST I AGREE, WHAT THE HELL DO WE DO NOW, THIS IS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF WE THE PEOPLE, OUR POWER IS LIMITED, WE HAVE (NO) VOICE IN CONGRESS, ARE VOTES ARE A JOKE, ALL THE CANDIDATES ARE HAND PICKED BY THE (ROYALS) GLOBALIST, WE ARE LIVING IN THE BIGGEST DECEPTION OF HUMANITY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD, AND THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. JUST GET PREPARED FOR ITS GOING TO GET WORSE, THIS IS THE TEXT BOOK WAY TO DESTROY A COUNTRY,( DESTROY ITS ECONOMY), OR AT LEAST MAKE THE PEOPLE POOR ENOUGH TO EXCEPT ANYTHING THE GOVERNMENT HANDS OUT. I THINK THIS IS ALL IN PREPARATION FOR 2010 PLAN OF THE NORTH AMERICAN UNION , AND THE TAKE OVER OF THE WORLD BY THE UN, WITH THE LAW OF THE SEA TREATY. WHAT SAY YOU.
