I am also a little confused as to why it has taken so very long to even begin to get this book published and this story out. I read the initial article in Harper's. It was as plain as the nose on your face. Unbelievable. Then, in the midst of setting up all the big trade shows the insurgency broke out. Corporations decided it was not worth their risk and began to question the legality of privatizing the soap factories, etc.  and backed out, leaving Bremer and the other looters holding the bag, literally.  Why is this so hard for the American public to believe?  You do not have to be a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist to believe the depravity of the corporations or the war intent.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3602536554726075266/2378745508291833633/comments/default/2676928524233258290'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3602536554726075266/2378745508291833633/comments/default/2676928524233258290'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://somenotesonliving.blogspot.com/2007/11/call-it-democracy.html?showComment=1196615520000#c2676928524233258290' title=''/><author><name>Pursey Tuttweiler</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17850369845704358928</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://somenotesonliving.blogspot.com/2007/11/call-it-democracy.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3602536554726075266.post-2378745508291833633' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3602536554726075266/posts/default/2378745508291833633' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3602536554726075266.post-7734124257901050832</id><published>2007-12-01T22:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-12-01T22:42:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>OH synch we got avitars at the same exact time.

I just can't. BH gave me the book , best GIFT ever..ty BH! Its all the stuff we sure as hell are NOT meant to know. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;BUT knowing it - we will understand how to combat the pure EVIL of Milton Friedman's legacy and followers. All the Neo's. Its essential reading. soooo if i am quit lately on the blogs , it is because i am reading  this BOOK after my brief morning blog rounds. I ask for your understanding.

Just got The Shock Doctrin By Naomi Klein and she mentions in the first chapter how a surrvaillance society  arises, Well , it all goes back to Milton Friedman and the fundamentalist capitalists - they had been waiting for at least 30 yrs of a "shock" like 911 to hit - As we all have said time and again the Patriot Act wasn't just lying around.  - One thing that could help us IS UNDERSTANDING the roots of their actions. Its the only way we can know how to fight it, She was on KO last night. And made that point - the people can see Iraq or any disaster for what it is - how the Vultures exploit it - Being just mad at bush say is a waste - its much bigger than him..etc. Milton Friedman and his loyal followers are monstreous.
