Lies, lies and more lies - how the government has used FEAR to wage war on its own people

Politicians use fear to justify wars, Paul says - A Concord Monitor Article

Rep. Ron Paul believes political leaders are pumping up the threat of terrorism to accomplish political goals. Paul, the 10-term Texas congressman, told Monitor reporters and editors that concerns about the country's security have been overblown to justify needless foreign invasions and domestic surveillance programs.

"It scares the living daylights out of me that they would do that, to talk about perpetual war," he said, dismissing the contention that Islamic terrorism is a grave threat that will face the country for a generation or longer. "All that is, they have to have an enemy."

It is amazing how blind the public is to this. Dr. Paul deserves to be leading all the polls (if the American public would just WAKE UP).
