Comment on: When Governments Lie

Key turning points in recent US History - where we are now

history doesn't lie

I have made this point for months and have been accused of being a conspiracy nut to a visionary. All I ask people who have a brain cell left from kool-aid abuse is-did you ever think we would be this close to the scenario you wrote? Germany never thought Hitler was a genocidal maniac.He was a charasmatic,articulate speaker that came along in bad economic times and convinced the voters he was "change".Every tyrannical dictator inhistory came to power promising change in times of economic turmoil.People think Obama is making a mistake talking down the economy every day.This is the master plan.There isn't near enough real pain yet for a complete takeover,but the mad rush to pass the stimulis and budget bills passed with more transfer of power to the executive branch from the legislative in our history and the public doesn't know a tenth of the extent of it yet.The military,I believe will be our bailout.I can't imagine them following a leader that is pre-empting the constitution they all pledged to fight and die for.

Should we be afraid?

What I like from this post: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/06/obama-b irth.html, is the comment: People who circulate the born in Kenya falsehood are just trolls with an ax to grind.. (paraphrased in part).

Really? Wanting confirmation of my President's birth in America is an ax to grind? Wanting to know what he stood for before he was elected was just a nitpicking nuisance? Maybe if we were talking about, America's next "idol." But, we're talking about the President of the United States. Now with a $3 Trillion dollar budget. What's worse - is the news saying that puts us now up to $5 trillion in debt. No - that puts us over $15 trillion in the immediate in debt, plus another $15 trillion in regards to other issues.

I would agree that something very dark and unpleasant is happening. I cannot say what without losing all levels of my "feeble though they may be" attempts at presenting information (at least part) with minimal bias, but I will say this:

You're right John.
