Well, it was going along well, until you got to the final paragraph.  Then, you sort of departed from fact and reason.

Distorted intelligence data - depends upon your view.  President Bush acted on the exact same data the previous administration had, and which that administration concluded proved Iraq had and was pursuing improvements in weapons of mass destruction.

Preemptive invasion - again, depends upon your view.  Iraq invaded a neighboring country, then surrendered to the forces responding to that attack.  They then spent a decade violating the terms of the surrender, as well as better than a dozen UN resolutions.  You call it preemptive.  I call it a consequence of past actions.

Torturing prisoners of war - I will grant that a select few individuals have violated military regulations and have since been tried and punished.  I will even grant that the US may have been creative in where various individuals wound up being held.  Some may have been mistreated.  Few of those being held are prisoners of war.  They are combatants fighting under no flag, in no uniform, subject to no real government.  They are not, therefore, prisoners of war.  They are terrorists caught on a battlefield.

Holding suspects without access to courts or lawyers - these are rights provided to American citizens in the United States by the Constitution.  Enemy combatants captured in a military conflict outside of the United States have no right to those protections.  It has ever been so in war.  They have no right to a trial, they have no right to a lawyer.  What is afforded them, by the US military, is access to a military tribunal.  They fight as "soldiers," so they can face the justice afforded soldiers.

Searches and wiretapping without warrants - the first is a broad allegation that hasn't been made (to my knowledge) in any sense at all.  The wiretapping being conducted is reportedly on those outside the country (and that individual inside the country receiving the call).  We've been down this road, before, and disagree on the severity of the issue.

Declining incomes/disappearing jobs - the most recent reports from just about anywhere directly refute these claims.  The jobless rate continues to decline, and 193,000 jobs were added in January.  The jobless rate is at a 4 1/2 year low, at 4.7%.  That, by the way, is below the unemployment rate most economist use for "full employment."  The personal income report isn't due out until 3/31, and early indicators are that it continues to rise.  So, jobs are being created, incomes are (reportedly) rising, and the unemployment rate is at about the lowest rate it can be.

Health care expenses are skyrocketing - this is our own fault.  It's called a capital system being screwed with by the government (not, by the way, this administration's fault).  I will grant that the drug program is a fiasco.  Then again, I opposed it from the outset.

Skyrocketing retirement entitlement costs - wow, are you now for scrapping the Social Security program, as I am?  This is another issue for which the blame lies squarely in the laps of the American people.  President Bush attempted to spark debate on a resolution, and was promptly chastised for even thinking of it.

I agree that these various "fight" groups (and the plethora of "reality" shows) are a sign of a depraved cultural period.  I'm not yet ready to start the doomsday messages, though the phenomenon is frightening.  It is not, however, a function of or the responsibility of the federal government.  It is a function of the American people.  And even that is a broad generalization, as I believe that Hollywood doesn't truly reflect the values and beliefs of the American population.
