Marooned
Jazz musician Dave Frishberg once wrote a song called "Marooned in a Blizzard of Lies". Every day, it seems more and more relevant and broader and broader in its application.
It's as if the entire country were a vast spy network, where everyone is fooling everyone else, and everyone is an agent, a double agent, even a quintuple agent.
I think even those who think they know which agenda they are serving are wrong. There are layers above and below what passes for the "deepest" or "highest".
In other words, even though soneone like Dick Cheney seems to think he knows what he's working towards, there are others doing significant things he doesn't know about, and those people are in the same situation as well.
So what does all the lying and spying accomplish in the end? Few people have given this much thought, but it wouldn't hurt to start.
