The day after Obama was elected & Jeb called for a "shadow government" I thought abt starting a blog |
|
It would have chronicled all the threats and calls for violence that went unchallenged each day. I really wish I'd followed through on this. Is anybody working on anything like this? It would be very powerful to read all in one place.

1. There has always been a shadow government......... |
|
It's been chronicled since the sixties; Bill Moyers, a much younger Moyers, did a documentary on it.

6. I've begun the program and will continue throughout the day as I get time... |

My first impression is: NOTHING HAS CHANGED - the wars we're engaged in are also for profit, and we're still involved in arms deals American citizens know nothing about.

Quite true. I suspect, however, that it got worse over the intervening years.
Reagan should have been impeached, as should the Bush presidents. It's very interesting to me that, although the rest of the world knows about the laundering of drug money and the covert operations, North Americans aren't supposed to.

8. You're right - we've had criminal presidents. I wonder where Obama will fit in... |
|
Stepping up the war wasn't a good sign imo, but we'll see...

to start that blog, Rudy. Feels like an important idea, to me. Start today,going FORWARD.. & I'm sure DUers can help with that, as well as filling in the past detail, back to that November day. Please do it.
Only OTHER similar list would be (I HOPE!) with ss, fbi & law enforcement.. tho' THEY are more interested in PEACE Activists, seems to me. This is messed UP.

9. Someone has already chronicled all the threats and calls for violence |
|
The FBI. They just watched and let them go for a while so they would show themselves.
