Every vote counts, right?

I was just thinking about a few of these things and thought I'd list them out for you to draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to share your thoughts if you are so inclined (click on the comment link at the bottom of this posting).

1) To war under fabricated pretexts (no ties to Al Quida, no weapons of mass destruction)
2) At war without a long-term exit strategy
3) Tortured POWs... covered up then exposed... no "Leaders" held accountable.
4) POWs held without representation or ability to see evidence against them
5) Secret CIA holding cells throughout the world ... quietly silenced investigations
6) War contracts to politically aligned businesses (can you say Halaburton?)
7) The covert outing of a CIA operative, the cover-up, and conviction. What next? A pardon?
8) Adjusted Science for Government reports on global warming and women's health
9) FEMA and the heck-of-a job they've done or NOT (result from a political appointment)
10) "FBI admits abuse of the Patriot Act" ... where is the accountability?
11) Attorney General knowingly allows the political firing of eight superior court judges

Political appointments; scandalous activities; cover-ups; denials; no accountability and a frighteningly skewed balance of power. I'm afraid this list could go on. [sigh]
