What changed America more?

[MoseyWalker]

please feel free to say your reasons why.

Peace

[El Supremo]

1. The stolen 2000 election, n/t

[MissWaverly]

2. Have to agree

that started the reign of Bush II.

[LibraLiz1973]

Stolen election #1, hands down (n/t)

[azurnoir]

5. Have to agree 2000 election

and Paul Wellstones death may have run it a second.

[MissWaverly]

10. Yes, Paul Wellstone, he is sorely missed

He would not have bought in to the Bush bs. Even now I stand amazed at how much and how often
our leaders have bought the Bush talking points. I wonder how much of the rollover effect
is due to the wiretaps.

3. Amen brother.

President Gore sure has a nice ring to it.

[valerief]

7. Stolen electionSSSSSSS. n/t

[O.M.B.inOhio]

9. Yes. 2000 fraud ->ineptitude ->failures in security and disaster response.

[conflictgirl]

23. Totally agree. nt

[CrushTheDLC]

4. The corporatized prostitution of the mainstream media

None of the frauds perpetrated on this country (stolen elections, 9/11, Iraq) would have been possible without the willing assistance of the 21st century Pravda mediawhores. :grr:

[BobRossi]

12. Bingo!

When the freedom of the press is willfully given up for monetary gain the freedom of the people follows.

[Selatius]

6. Nothing. We're roughly the same as we were before those two

9/11 and the aftermath of Katrina are just symptoms of long-lasting problems in our Republic.

The corruption and graft overtaking the US is rivaling Rome. When this Republic finally falls, it will fall not because it was attacked from the outside but because it imploded from the inside-out because the leaders who run the empire ran it for their own gain and not for the welfare of the common people.

[baldguy]

8. The illegal & unConstitutional installation in power of the Boy King.

[zeemike]

11. The assassination of JFK started it all

But the stolen election of 2000 was the last straw.

[datadiva]

13. Supreme court decision to appoint a president n/t

[whistle]

14. Allowing Ronald Reagan to be elected president and then to serve

...out two full terms. Reagan's agenda fostered the rise of the extreme right wing and Christian fascist elements that we now see at every level of public power in this country.

[SharonAnn]

19. Absolutely. That's what I believe.

[readmoreoften]

15. Supreme Court 2000 which led to both 9-11 and Brownie's Heckuva Job. /nt

[gumby]

16. 50+ years of psy-ops

from the Military Industrial Complex (or whatever you want to call it).

That's why few care when elections are stolen or when Katrina victims are left to die in front of a TV camera.

[On the Road]

17. Over the Past Five Years?

I would have to vote for the invasion of Iraq.

On Edit: 911 is a blip. I think the country is returning to normality despite the constant fearmongering.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

18. I'd Say 9/11 Without A Doubt. I Can't Think Of Anything That Has

so profoundly affected more people so deeply. No matter the truth behind it, the fact is the majority of americans will carry that day with them for the rest of their lives. To this day whenever I see a plane flying low in the sky, my brain warps to horrible images of picturing the plane if it was about to fly into a building.

Whether shrubby has used 9/11 as a propaganda tool in every way possible shouldn't change the fact that it was still a tremendously impactful event on almost every single American.

9/11 get my vote hands down on this one, though the stolen election (both) have had profound impacts as well and probably moreso in a global sense.

[porphyrian]

20. How long is a piece of string?

The wheel's still spinning, and it's a bit premature to do much more than speculate here, don't you think?

[dflprincess]

21. JFK's murder

I think that's when what we now call neocons took control.

[Marie26]

22. Iraq

The other two were tragedies, but the Iraq debacle might well affect America for the rest of our lives.

[unkachuck]

24. NAFTA, CAFTA....

....and any other afta you can think of which has destroyed our once preeminent manufacturing base....

[Lindsey]

26. Stolen election 2000...

I've had many tragic events in my life. And I have to say that this is in the top five of the most heartbreaking events for me. The ramifications of Bush being installed over Gore are simply massive beyond description.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

25. Other.
