Why Are We So Easy to Con?

One columnist, who says Benazir Bhutto is not the person Americans think she is, that she's a "thief" who looted her country through two terms as prime minister,  expressed wonder at how easily Americans are conned about such people. If he's right, it's not so hard to understand. Americans for the most part, pay no attention, or scant attention to "politics" until shortly before an important election. They have bought the "Lincoln Cult's" scams that have caused Abraham Lincoln, who suspended habeas corpus, imprisoned thousands of Northern political opponents during the War between the States, shut down hundreds of opposing newspapers, pledged to support a constitutional amendment to prohibit the feds from ever interfering with Southern slavery, and issued an arrest warrant for the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court to be "deified" forever to all (well, mostly all) Americans when he was one of the most corrupt presidents we have known (with the possible exception of Bill Clinton). We are, to a large degree, buying the bull droppings of AlGore, who goes around the world crying "the sky is falling" and enough people believe him that he has created a multi-million dollar industry fighting his imaginary man-made global warming swindle. If we buy that con, why not buy what we're told by the liberal media about Bhutto? I'm not saying Bhutto is bad. Neither am I saying she is the "recent coming of our savior." But I am getting tired of trying to wake people up to the many scams that are being run on us by liberals and others. I'll probably be hearing from some of today's "Lincoln Cultists" after this post gets out. But they'd better have proof of their assertions. (Ralph Peters in the New York Post) Another writer in Newsweek says "Bhutto may become in death what she never was in life.
