His perjury and subsequent conviction, plus the ***DECLARED*** neo-con policy of deliberately lying whenever useful to further their agenda, left me utterly disgusted and certain that such a creature could never again be placed in a position of public trust. I adopted the term "Professional Liar" to describe him, feeling it the perfect combination of literal truth and profound scorn. Now, in the aftermath of the Neo-con-directed Bush/Cheney criminal administration with its central practice of deliberate, purposeful, focused, and unrelenting serial lying, the term "Professional Liar" seems to have lost all of its force. Professional Liar seems now little more than a plain vanilla descriptor. Just another skill to be listed on a resume for today's political operative. The American experiment is over. All that remains is to vacuum up any remaining wealth from the corpse of the old "America", transfer it to the ruling elite, wait for those who still remember what prosperity was like to die, and then start the new "globalized" era where Chinese, Indian, and American workers all endure the same "austere" standard of living.

Indeed, the only people who kept Abrams in his job were the Dick Cheney cabal -- all the Israeli firsters -- America last! Elliot Abrams has done more harm to US interests than any Arab group could ever hope to do. Elliot Abrams is not to be trusted by any American.
