The most obvious and condescending tell-tale sign that manipulation is taking place is that no one takes responsibility for the actions of the administration, itÃs always some other department who is to blame and never the people who have authority, itÃs always some nameless foot-soldiers, a ìfew bad apples,î when we all know that such excuses donÃt hold water, we know who gave the order for soldiers to engage in the abhorrent techniques of torture, we know who told subordinates in the corporation(s) to ìfudge the numbersî and ìbe creative,î we know full well who makes these decisions. President Truman said, ìThe buck stops here,î now the buck effectively floats over many people never stopping anywhere, so thereÃs no one to blame
