Thou Shalt Not Accuse!

(Regardless of the Evidence)

 

 

 

TvNewsLIES Challenges the Unwritten Commandment

July, 2005

 

They have admittedly altered dozens of reports and suppressed others;

What makes you think that they did not manipulate the Iraqi intelligence?

 

What an inconceivable time we live in. It is now more sinful to expose

the crimes and lies of an American president and his administration,

than it is to commit them! The American media and most members of

Congress have sat silently by, blindfolding themselves with the

American flag, while the most criminal administration in history

continues to defecate on the soul of our nation.

 

In the America of today, the nexus between evidence and criminality is

almost non-existent. You can present the average, blindly trusting,

red state Bush worshiper with video evidence, a signed confession and

a convoy of witnesses to any one of the great number of crimes, lies

and outrages committed by this administration, and the typical

reaction would be " How can you say that? " There appears to be no

reality in the perceptions these people have of their president. Logic

and reason within the George W. Bush base have become inert. These

people actually believe that it is inappropriate to expose heinous

crimes and despicable actions even when there is no denial about them

by the perpetrators themselves.

 

These people choose, instead, to hear no evil, see no evil and never

speak of the evil around them. They prefer close their minds to what

is obvious, evident and indisputable. They live by an unwritten

commandment: Thou Shalt Not Accuse This President or Any of His

Cohorts of Their Lies – regardless of the evidence! Breaking this

commandment has now become the ultimate sin. No matter what, Thou

Shalt Not Accuse George Bush!

 

Just consider the outright lies told by the Bush administration in the

form of a slew of vital reports whose conclusions were altered or

concealed from the public. Clear evidence exists that a series of very

critical scientific and economic reports were edited or hidden in

order support the lies Bush wanted the people to believe. We have

proof of instance after instance where the Bush administration changed

the results or the implied urgency of reports issued by authoritative

bodies because they contradicted false claims made by the White House.

We have the evidence, but there is no one willing to accuse the

criminals. The corporate media simply continue to lie by omission as

they support the most lying administration in US history.

 

Simply stated, numerous reports indicated in clear and concise terms

that the Bush administration was wrong or was lying about something

relevant to domestic or international policy. Summarily, the

information in the reports was changed to allow the lies to go on

unquestioned. The Bush administration went on to use the manipulated

reports to support their false claims. They have been doing this since

they got into office, brazenly and openly. What is even worse, even

when the distortions were exposed, the corporate media and the

Congress have done nothing about it. Many individuals and

organizations whose reports have been manipulated by the Bush

administration have publicly decried these outrages, even to the point

of raising public alarm.

 

However, because of today's nonexistent American news media, the

public remains largely unaware of the duplicity of their own

government. They don't have a clue about how they are being

manipulated on a regular basis. But even worse, half this nation would

pounce on the accuser for daring to reveal the lies. The sin is in

showing them the evidence. The crime is exposing the criminals. No

one may ever accuse.

 

Surely we can bring up 9/11 and Iraq; two issues that would fill

volumes were we to document the lies of the Bush administration. But

why bother with anything so controversial? Simply consider some of the

reports that this administration has been openly found to have

altered. Bear in mind that no one in the White House has bothered to

deny altering or concealing information in any of the documents in

question.

 

Take a look at some of the manipulated documents that were altered

before being presented to the public. The audacity of this White House

boggles the mind, and the brazenness of the manipulations are simply

beyond comprehension. And still, there is no one in the media or the

Congress honorable enough to make an accusation.

 

* Administration excised scientists' warnings in grazing report -

" This is a whitewash; they took all of our science and reversed it 180

degrees, " said Erick Campbell, a former BLM state biologist in Nevada

and a 30-year BLM employee who retired this year. Campbell wrote

sections of the report pertaining to impacts on wildlife and

threatened and endangered species. " They rewrote everything. It's a

crime, " he said.

* Hog Farming - Nationally respected Agriculture Department

microbiologist Dr. Zahn discovered that hog farms were emitting

drug-resistant airborne bacteria that " if breathed by humans, would

make them harder to treat when ill. Zahn presented his findings at a

scientific conference in 2000, but the Bush administration stopped him

from publishing his data 11 times between September 2001 and April

2002, he said. When Danish researchers sought to learn more about his

work, Zahn wasn't allowed to share his techniques. "

* Bush Aide Softened Greenhouse Gas Links to Global Warming - A

White House official who once led the oil industry's fight against

limits on greenhouse gases has repeatedly edited government climate

reports in ways that play down links between such emissions and global

warming, according to internal documents.

* EPA Misled Public on 9/11 Pollution - White House ordered false

assurances on air quality, report says

* White House Changes Experts' Report on Health Effects of Mercury

- The White House's alterations downplayed the risks of mercury,

replaced specific enumerations of mercury-related harms with bland,

general references, and introduced additional emphasis on uncertainty.

* Stem Cell Research - Dr. Blackburn states that she believes she

was dismissed because she disapproved of the Bush administration's

restrictive position on stem cell research. According to Dr.

Blackburn, she and Dr. May frequently disagreed with the

administration's positions on the ethics of biomedical research.

* Bush administration distorts science to shield Halliburton from

pollution laws - - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will

investigate complaints by one of its engineers who said the agency

distorts science in order to shield Halliburton from pollution laws,

the Los Angeles Times reported today.

* Wildlife scientists feeling heat - Species-protection data

suppressed, many report - The scientists charge that top regional and

national officials in the agency suppressed scientific information to

avoid confrontations with industry groups or to follow the Bush

administration's political policies.

* Stem-Cell Wars & the Presidency - 4,000 Scientists Sign

Anti-Bush Statement - The Associated Press reports that over 4,000

scientists, which includes 48 Nobel Prize winners, have signed a

statement " opposing the Bush administration's use of scientific advice. "

* ACLU Slams Bush for Restricting Scientific Information - The

ACLU joins the chorus of those unhappy with the Bush Administration's

approach to dealing with science that doesn't fit their policies and

restricting information based on homeland security issues.

* Bush Administration Deletes Women's Issues Information from

Government Websites - The Bush administration has quietly deleted and

altered information on women's issues from government agency websites,

a research group has found.

 

How do Bush supporters defend this? What can they possibly say that

would justify this? It is simply mind blowing that such a large

segment of society willingly accepts and supports this kind of abuse.

Are all Bush supporters masochists? Do they want to be harmed? Do they

like being poisoned? Do they thrive on people lying to them? The list

we provided is not even complete! There is more! It is surreal at this

point!

 

Understand that the Bush administration has been caught red handed

changing or suppressing the results of these reports for the purpose

of maintaining or increasing support for an agenda that would actually

harm Americans! In other words they have intentionally risked the

health, the lives, the safety, and the economic security of the people

they have sworn to serve. We're talking about harming us, hurting us,

poisoning us and telling us we're fine. But no one is allowed to

accuse them of this.

 

And so I choose to do so here. I will breach the Commandment by which

so many Americans have chosen to live. I HEREBY ACCUSE THE BUSH

ADMINISTRATION OF CONSISTENTLY AND INTENTIONALLY LYING TO THE AMERICAN

PEOPLE IN ORDER TO CONTINUE AN AGENDA OF CORPORATE GREED, REGARDLESS

OF HOW MUCH HARM IS DONE TO US ALL!!! I. My reply to anyone who

turns the tables and makes me the criminal is: Shut the hell up and

face the truth! Learn the facts! This is happening now, and it has

been going on since Bush took office. He has lied to you over and over

and over and the media have refused to let you know about it.

 

But even if you knew….would it make any difference? I think not. So

many Americans would still say, " It's a lie! " They would still cling

to that comforting Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Accuse. That's where

we've come to in this incredulous time.

 

The assault on the truth has been relentless. It has been a far

greater challenge to find an issue that has been truthfully and

accurately represented by the Bush administration than to find its

many lies and distortions. Yet, during the past five years the word

" lie " has not been uttered by anyone in the corporate media or by the

very large majority of our corporately owned Congress. That would be

an accusation, and that is forbidden.

 

The problem with the media is obvious: we simply do not have any real

news networks in this nation. TvNewsLIES.org has clearly proven that,

and this editor will gladly take up any challenge by any news

organization or educational institution that differs with that conclusion.

 

It really would be quite simple to document the criminal negligence or

complicity of the American corporate news media in the crimes of the

Bush administration. All that is needed is a list just a fraction of

important stories that have gone unreported by the media and then list

the sensational, mindless stories that our news media have covered

over the past five years. That alone would expose the embarrassing

state of our media in a crystal clear light.

 

To cite just one example: we have been inundated by five years of

missing person stories side by side with a five year absence of news

stories depicting the total dismantling of our environmental

protections (and the resulting assault of deadly toxins and pollutants

virtually strewn over the nation by the Bush administration). This

alone should be enough to shred the notion of America having even one

informative national news network.

 

Congress is another problem unto itself. While both major parties are

clearly private enterprises, each with its own corporate sector

owners, there is a clear and obvious difference between the two. When

a Democratic president breaks the law or conducts the business of the

nation in a manner that is harmful to the people of this nation, our

freedoms, our liberties or our humanity, Democrats will cross party

lines and do the right thing by holding their own party leader

accountable. Republicans on the other hand, will do no such thing. As

do their constituency, Republican members of Congress consider holding

their leader accountable for his actions a greater violation of their

patriotism than permitting an unaccountable criminal administration to

continue an ongoing assault on everything American, from our

Constitution to the very health of the planet itself. In their own

unique lock-step, they will never, ever allow their President to be

accused.

 

The lies are everywhere. For every single fabrication there is a

mountain of evidence to support the accusation that never came. And

yet, despite it all, the public remains unconvinced. Many simply do

not know. Others simply do not want to know. And others know and do

not care. Whatever the reasons, lies about vital issues that effect

us all have become an integral part of Bush administration policy. And

what is worse is that no one in the corporate media – and hardly any

one in a Congress of 535 men and women - will dare accuse them of

their crimes, thus making them complicit in the crimes and lies.

 

This is not about politics, but about our survival as a democratic

republic. This is not about left or right, or about Conservative or

Liberal. This is about an administration that clearly has set a new

precedence for lying and for acting against the best interests of the

citizens of this country. It's about the dishonesty of those who

should be working in our best interests. And it's about the people who

cannot see the liars because of all the lies that blind them.

 

And it's about challenging the silence of those who will not accuse.

 

* The White House's White-Out Problem

* White House Web Scrubbing - Though it is not clear whether the

White House is directing the changes, several agencies have been

following a similar pattern.

* Politics in the lab hits US scientific integrity - President

Nixon shut down his White House science office because he didn't like

the advice he was getting on arms control and the supersonic

transport. Nevertheless, several science-policy experts argue that no

presidency has been more calculating and ideological than the Bush

administration in setting political parameters for science.

*

WHY AMERICANS REFUSE TO BELIEVE THE 9/11 EVIDENCE!!! - The

attacks of 9/11 were so unthinkable that most Americans would refuse

to believe the complicity of their own government, even if presented

with a mountain of evidence. - Very simply, it is possible to escape

blame if you do something that nobody in the world believes you could do.

Thanks for posting this.

 

The American public is going to need to overcome this particular

brainwashing in a hurry if the US and the world are to survive.

Here's an editorial that pinpoints one of the reasons why the US is

in such trouble:

" What an inconceivable time we live in. It is now more sinful to

expose

the crimes and lies of an American president and his administration,

than it is to commit them! The American media and most members of

Congress have sat silently by, blindfolding themselves with the

American flag, while the most criminal administration in history

continues to defecate on the soul of our nation. "

This is a very important editorial. In the part of the South I'm

originally from, this was and is very much the " norm " . People

believe that it is more sinful and more wrong to expose wrong-doing

than it is to commit the wrongs. Consequently things continue to get

worse and worse and worse. Evil always grows where it's not exposed.

 

This particular bit of brainwashing must be overcome in a hurry if

the downward course of the US is to be halted and reversed. These

people who consider it more wrong to expose wrongs than to commit

them need to be confronted with the truth: That THEY bear a great

deal of the RESPONSIBILITY for things being as bad as they are and

getting worse and worse, that THEY are NOT good people, that THEY

are ENABLERS with blood on their hands. They are a big part of the

problem.

 

This editorial reminds me of something that happened in North

Carolina several years ago. Remember when ABC broke the story about

how one grocery store chain was playing fast and loose with the

safety of its meat, bleaching meat that was past its expiration date

and slapping a new expiration sticker on it, hiding expired

hamburger in a wrapper of fresh hamburger, etc.? The chain sued, and

a NC jury found in favor of the grocery chain. Said ABC News

shouldn't have exposed how the chain was putting customers at risk.

Said ABC News violated the privacy and other rights of the company.

Etc.

 

People who regard the exposure of wrongs as more wrong than

committing the wrongs are some of the scummiest enablers there are.

Don't let them continue to think they're good people. Confront them

with the truth every chance you get. THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE. THEY ARE

A BIG PART OF THE PROBLEMS.

 

Abuse, exploitation, and crimes never continue without the help of

enablers such as these.

I'm sorry to disagree with you, but if it has become more " sinful " (to use your

word), to expose the crimes of this administration than it is to commit them,

perhaps you can explain why it is that this same media empire had no problem

badgering and tormenting Bill Clinton over vastly less serious charges? Media

were merciless in their attacks on the former president, not because his

" crimes " were deserving of condemnation and ultimately impeachment (by

comparison with Bush's wrongdoing, Clinton was a saint), but because media

fundamentally support the Bush administration, and strongly opposed the Clinton

agenda for America. Media favor Bush, they don't fear him; they share Bush's

values and so shield him any way they can, from serious attack
