  JFK assasination   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
It would be necessary to fool a majority of the American people into believing that they were well represented, and that a democracy still existed, while at the same time the coup group were in reality changing the country to suit their own tastes.
That the fooling part turned out to be so easy is due to a long series of conditioning steps taken with the American news media and the people over the preceding years.
To fool a majority of the people all of the time it is necessary to reach into their minds over a relatively long period of time.

 The Fool Review » American Gladiators
American Gladiators had all the charm of hemmroid itch, but we loved it anyway.
Before Powerball was a lottery, it was my favorite event on American Gladiators, a football-esque competition in which competitors tried to battle through a fleet of gladiators and try to put foam balls in a trash can.
I only hope that the resurrection of American Gladiators will see the return of kids taking out their aggression with giant plush jousts as opposed to more violent means.

Last May, American Express Financial Advisors, a unit of American Express (NYSE: AXP), was implicated in a similar case for allegedly accepting directed brokerage fees.
Instead, American allegedly created target commission levels based on expected sales to 75 different firms with which it has revenue-sharing agreements.
In creating the arrangements, American allegedly told brokerages it expected its funds to be among the "preferred" or "recommended" offerings.

 Fool.com: American Expressing [Motley Fool Take] July 30, 2003
American Express demonstrated a clear commitment to this goal with last month's purchase of Threadneedle Investments, a large fund manager based in the U.K. The company appears to be focusing its efforts on increasing its global reach, particularly in Europe.
As on the domestic front, the firm's financial planning group, American Express Financial Advisors, continues to turn in solid numbers, pulling off an 8% increase in revenue for the quarter.
This phenomenon of consolidation in the asset management area is nothing new, but American Express was able to negotiate a rock bottom price for Threadneedle, a former division of Zurich Financial.

 Amazon.com: American Fool: Music: John Cougar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
With American Fool, John Cougar, attained status on the American music scene that would reach its peak during the Scarecrow and Lonesome Jubilee albums, but that was three and five years away, respectively.
American Fool further opened the crack in the door that was "I Need A Lover" two albums back, but given the material here, that crack could've been wider.
Weird thing was, American Fool was not allowed to be listed on the very album named for it, but it's there, at the end, if you knew to listen for it.

 American Broadside: Fool Me Once ...
It is amazing how your mind clears when it isn’t struggling against the mindless chatter of American newscasters and the fear-mongering of the Bush Administration.
For the last four years, Europeans have said to me, “We love Americans; it is your government that we can’t stand.” This is about to change if we re-elect Bush.
More than once I was told that re-electing George would be a clear indication that we Americans are as selfish, ignorant, and uncaring as our government and that the good will we have experienced, and abused, since 9/11 will be much harder to find in the future.

 Still Looking Up at American Eagle [Fool.com: Motley Fool Take] July 7, 2006
Still, we should remember that comps are only one piece of data and, as fellow fashion Fool Alyce Lomax poignantly pointed out, should be used with other information.
American Eagle achieved these results even while reducing promotional and marketing programs, further evidence that the concept is still popular and an indicator that margins could be on the rise.
I would rate American Eagle in the former camp, especially because it also increased its second-quarter earnings guidance to $0.41 to $0.43 per share from $0.39 to $0.41, compared with $0.37 in earnings last year.

 Chapter 3, You Can Fool the People, "THE TAKING OF AMERICA, 1-2-3", 1985
      The fact that it is possible to fool a majority of the American people for a long period of time and to cover-up a high level conspiracy involving many, many individuals, can easily be demonstrated by using Watergate as an example.
It was not until late 1973 that the research done by these researchers and their hypotheses about high-level conspiracies were proven correct and were generally accepted.

 Fake Osama bin Laden Tapes Fool American Public
Americans were prevented from accessing this information because we were told that Osama could possibly have an embedded "secret code" in the tape that would alert other terrorists cells to "activate" and target other American cities.
The "Osama" voice is apparently saying that the so-called 10th hijacker who was charged in American courts is actually innocent, but the real purpose of the tape is to acknowledge Osama's admission of ordering the 9-11 attacks.
The fake messages have been fabricated by al-CIA-duh to support the Bush regime and its phony “war on terror.” It is time for Americans to rise up against the masters of synthetic terror who have been looting the US taxpayer, torching the Constitution, demolishing the economy, and threatening a nuclear Armageddon.

The teacher, who didn't act on the principle that discretion is the better part of valor, generally got the worst of it.

John Cougar's first albums were so bereaved of strong material that the lean swagger of American Fool came as a shock.
These two songs are the only true keepers on American Fool, but the rest of the record works better than his previous material because his band is tighter than ever before, making his weaker moments convincing.
Besides, songs like "Hand to Hold On To" and "China Girl," for all their faults, do indicate that his sense of craft is improving considerably.

Another lie by George W. Bush during his propaganda campaign to fool the American public into supporting his invasion of Iraq.
If that combo of Americans investigating internet sources and MSM becoming more newsworthy actually continues to happen, then more Americans will be angry because more Americans will be more informed.
Unfortunately, the Chicago Tribune didn't think the proof that George Bush defrauded the American people in order to fool them into supporting an unnecessary war was front page material.

So, while history was "an account mostly false, of events mostly unimportant, which are brought about by rulers mostly knaves, and soldiers mostly fools," non-combatants in the Civil War were written off as a bunch of dead Quakers.
He worked for Barry Goldwater and Spiro Agnew, co-wrote a book with George H.W. Bush, and back in the day was a regular contributor to several journals of conservative opinion, including this magazine, and his views haven't "evolved" over the years.
Though Gold allows that liberals "can be a load of laughs" in the abstract, it is clear that he is more maddened than amused by the continuing dominance of progressives in the press, the academy, and certain slices of American society.

 eBay: John Cougar (Mellencamp) CD- AMERICAN FOOL/Jack & Diane (item 150000323809 end time Jun-27-06 17:54:50 PDT)
John Cougar and the American listening public became inseparable after this landmark album arrived in 1982.
While AMERICAN FOOL wasn't John Cougar's first full-length recording, it was the one wherein he gained commercial and artistic footing, and established a formula that would become his trademark style--simple roots-rock melodies with stirring choruses, unguardedly emotional vocals, and lyrics that reflect the experiences of the common man.
Album opener "Hurts So Good" is a playful rocker (with a dangerously catchy refrain) that has become part of the pop canon, and "Jack and Diane" is one of the great slice-of-life songs of the '80s.
