It is all in the language they use...notice most of what they say is so vague you can't even figure out what they mean!Bush has used certain catchphrases 'war on terrorism', 'freedom agenda', 'protecting our country' and drummed it into the consiousness of the American masses so mush so that they ...

I can't even remember...apart from making me realise that something needs to be done! Tony Blair did that quite recently!

Well, I think a place to start would be to push for a law to get passed
so that if a politician is found to be lying he can be prosecuted.

They are making a documentary about how politicians lie all the time nd get away with it, plus they seem to be interested in trying to get a law passed so that they ...

I know, but I don't think they should be able to get away with it. If an ordinary person lies or a business lies with the intention of deceiving they are liable to be prosecuted under the law...this does not seem to apply to politicians who are constantly deceiving the public and not being ...
