Opinion's Power

The events surrounding the indictments of "Scooter" Libby, will undoubtably affect personal, public and world opinion on a variety of issues. The Bush doctrine of "Stay the Course," in my opinion, will continue US policy in Iraq as well as furthering the repercussions surrounding the debate about this war. The insurgency in Iraq will certainly be emboldened by todays events, furthering the quagmire within all areas of the Middle East, if not, throughout the world. I believe these events will, hopefully, enlighten the American people to build up an effective grass roots protest movement against this war, and encourage folks to consider what our government has been doing, lying to the world about it's justification for preemptive military action. In fact, new opinion will cause a much deeper focus on American policy in general. This is Power, or in reality the true backbone of what a "real" democracy is. Truth has seemingly been on the backburner now for half a decade, yet in one day, the Truth can refocus opinion to radically change the direction of our country........Yes, we are a free country, but freedom to be greedy has been dealt a severe blow today..............................music later
