10. And then I sent him the "quote of the day" with this response:
When you hear of people being attacked for being unpatriotic - remember this ->


Of course the people don't want war... Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger.

- Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials.

If politicians are misleading the public into going to war (or staying in one) - it should be denounced - whichever the party.

I think, regardless of the quotes sent, Bush gets the credit and blame for the war we are in. He set the course and I think - the propaganda to go with it.
