The Gates book and the media


We see where the news media is going bananas over former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates book that is coming out that questions the direction and commitment of the Obama administration to Iraq and Afghanistan and use of our military.  However, good as that story may be, we did not hear any big story over the book written by James Schweizer, titled "Extortion" written in 2013 that chronicles all the corruption taken place in Congress and the administration and how at least 500 of those members belong behind bars.  Especially, when one considers that if we did what they are doing, that is where we would be.  But no mention.  I wonder why?  And it is across both parties.   

But the administration, although maybe not thrilled with this book, must be happy that the book has replaced Obamacare from the headlines.  But that will not last long as we progress into 2014 and we hear more horror stories.  Not even Gov. Chris Christie and trafficgate can dissuade the people from what is happening to their insurance and lives.   

When you permit government to control your lives and you believe government is the answer to all your problems, you are either extremely ignorant or just plain stupid.   

Be honest and look at where government has taken control either through regulation or legislation and how it has adversely affected everyone.  Education, environment, business, farming, food production, what you can eat, drive and eventually coming to a neighborhood if left unchecked, where you can live.  If you do not know about Agenda 21 and sustainable development, check it out and draw your own conclusions.
