Robert Gates: Too Few Americans Bear The Burdens Of War
Thursday, September 30, 2010
That was Bill Clinton who insisted that we "look forward, not back".
Had Clinton or Congress investigated and prosecuted, much more would have come to light and been more widely known (the treason committed by the Reagan-Bush campaign, conspiring with a foreign government to win the 1980 election, for example), and that would have ended the moratorium on speaking only nice about Reagan.
Had the Reagan-Bush administration been investigated and prosecuted, there would not have been a Bush-Cheney administration. The last ten years wouldn't have happened. The last greatest heist of the American people before this one (the Savings & Loan bailout) would have led to reregulating and preventing the abuses that created the latest one. As it is, Obama's finance reform bill would not have prevented the economic meltdown, and it doesn't prevent another one from happening.
