Why is Everything the Fault of Someone Else?

Progressive investigative reporter Robert Parry was on his way to the London subway system on the morning of July 7, heading to Heathrow Airport for a flight back to Washington, D.C. In his first-hand account of the confusion that followed the terrorist attacks in London, Parry draws several lessons that can be learned from the London bus and subway bombings and what the events could mean for George W. Bush's perpetual war on terror, U.S. foreign policy, and the last consequences of warfare culture.

For the full non-ideological story of how the British approached the crisis with determination and how the American far right talk radio creeps used this tragedy to... do what they alwasy do: attack those who disagree with them (like liberals) check out Consortiumnews coverage of the London bombings.

Personally, I remain confused how everything can be the fault of the non-conservative or the non-neoconserative. How can it be that every single misstep in domestic and foreign policy is the fault of someone else? Will these neanderthals ever take responsibility for their failed policies and rich kid spoiled dispositions?

Probably not. But that just means, like Perry, we have to point out every mistake they make and hold them accountable with the hope that the American public will one day realize that they were (and are) constantly lied to.
