I don’t expect lots of large longstanding conspiracies except a consiracy to hold power. It plays out with a lot of baiting weaknesses, lies/spin, rabble rousing, demoralizing and other typical propaganda(you might throw the religious beat downs in there). “Patriotism” is the biggest abuse of all. People call bin laden a coward, and he might be, but what about the Clintons,the Bushes and Obama, where have they ever proved that they are not “cowards”?
