    I can't, which is what I said. And you can't either because your little internet research simply will not do the job. So we don't know if they are lying. Fortunately, my hope doesn't lie in politicians telling the truth.

    Yes, and he gave it to us in his Word, which is what I preach.

    Thanks. I enjoy most of them. Some are hard reading.

    That's politics for you.

    Because you don't konw whether or not they are lying.
    You said I hang on their every word. That's not true. I don't even know their every word. I pay very little attention to them.

    I am not saying "trust the government." My contribution is the biblical perspective of not living for this world. If we had people that were more concerned about Christ and the gospel, and less concerned about PNAC and neo-con'ism we woud be better off.

    I didn't make any dogmatic statements. I didn't deny any of these statements. Perhaps you should start telling the truth about this.

    I was encouraging us to have a more biblical perspective. Why do you care about this so much? Is your hope really tied up in what the neo-cons do?

    I dunno about that PL. I have found enough MSM articles and documents using the neocons own written words to debunk a good share of their made for tv propaganda. For instance...lately they have been super hyping cold war themes such as their now very popular "nuclear holocaust" predictions. Exactly what they said they were going to do to "anticipate, manage and constrain our reactions".

    Where is that written? http://www.iasps.org/strat1.htm

    Maybe you don't care if the American people have been manipulated into sending our militaryand money off to fight wars on the whims of a few people in another country's regime but I do. If their plans were so righteous as they claim then they would have no need to "anticipate manage and constrain our reactions".

    If they were honest honorable men...

    They would tell us the truth and give us all the information we need to make an informed decision instead of trying to scare us into attacking the next target on their long hit list.

    No doubt. But there is also another side the story. And what's more important, it's not that big of a deal.

    I don't think that is true. Good leadership anticipates responses and tries to help people work through them ahead of time. They may not be honorable, but your conclusion here doesn't follow. We are in the process of presenting some major change plans to our church and we are trying to anticiate what the repsonse will be and how to manage that response.

    They are politicians.

    You are assuming that they are not. The truth is that you do not know. You say they are hiding their intentions. Yet you have gone and found this info out. So how are they hiding it if even you (the normal citizen) can find it? If they are trying to hide it, they are pretty inept. It sounds to me like your issue not them hiding it, but them failing to convince you that it is necessary. That's fine, but that's your objection, it seems to me.

    In the end, I have a higher priority than this kind of stuff.
