Another great column by Mark Morford....Personally I haven't been duped by this bunch since the beginning--or ever! I wonder why so many people fall for the lies? Are they that seductive? Not to me. But then I'm not a gung-ho "Patriot", wrapped in the flag, 'USA--right or wrong , forever!' kind of person...are you? If you are, even a little bit, then you've been duped, fooled and misled.
