Sad to Say "Corrupt Government" is Not an Oxymoron but a Redundancy

I read two articles recently that illustrated how corrupt government is from the smallest local community at the town, village, and county setting to the Leviathan monster at the federal level. Citizens have little say and are often deliberately kept out of the discussion. The articles actually offered no revelation to me. Let's face it, money and power rule the world under the world's prince, Satan. Those useful tools, money and power, pervert many a soul, especially those in politics who seem to have god-complexes.

Scope of Phone Records Grab Goes Beyond Verizon

"In a new development, the National Security Agency and the FBI are tapping into the central servers of nine leading U.S. Internet companies in real time, obtaining audio and video chats, photographs, e-mails and other information, various news outlets reported. The program is code-named PRISM."

This is chilling. The technology exists to keep track of everything we do and say, where we are at every minute of the day, etc. You may say, "I have nothing to hide," but that begs the question. IT IS NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS! And, as the IRS scandal shows, it is all used to persecute those whose politics differ from the administration's. This entire administration is corrupt from top to bottom. They make Richard Nixon look like a petty thief. Pray for our poor country.

Pro-life Pregnancy Help Centers: Are They the Next Administration Target?

Well, the IRS has mud on its face for targeting tea party and other conservative groups. (It's still going on by the way..) But IRS isn't the only agency persecuting the Obama enemies' list. The big guns of the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Department of Justice (DOJ) are being leveled at pro-life groups around the country.  No surprise from a pro-abortion administration that labels pro-lifers "domestic terrorists," but the persecution may become the next administration scandal. They may have picked the wrong guy this time. Chris Slattery never backed down from a fight in his life! And he's represented by another fighter, Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ).

Obama Pays Back His Media Buddies

Hmmm....no ads on Rush's radio show? Just think of all the creative ways Obama spends taxpayer dollars to reward his friends.

Maryland's Gerrymandering Gymnastics

Wow! The liberals in Maryland want to make sure they get the vote outcomes they want. One way to do that is to gerrymander the district maps to make sure you isolate all the conservatives in as few voting districts as possible and get maximum benefit from the liberal pockets. Take a look at the loony districts in Maryland for an example of how this game is played by the expert vote manipulators. Hey, it minimizes the necessity of zombie voters.

Practice what you preach, Nancy!

Liberals talk about children and the poor when they want to use them to score political points, but in reality they couldn't care less. If they did, they wouldn't advocate ripping little babies limb from limb and they would live modestly the way they keep telling the rest of us to do. (Turn down your thermostat, take Metro, get rid of your gas guzzler, only use two sheets when you wipe, etc. etc. ad nauseum.) But Nancy Pelosi deserves a special award for hypocrisy as this article shows. She spends almost $1000 a week of the taxpayers money just on her travel boondoggles where she serves high end liquor and fancy food on her government transport.

Take a look at this excerpt from Judicial Watch:

Judicial Watch said the newly obtained 2,000 pages of documentation show Pelosi's military travel cost the U.S. Air Force $2,100,744.59 over two years – including $101,429.14 for in-flight expenses, including food and alcohol.

Among the newest highlights revealed:

Pelosi used Air Force aircraft to travel back to her district at an average cost of $28,210.51 per flight. Of 103 Pelosi-led congressional delegations (CODEL), 31 trips included members of the House speaker's family.

One CODEL traveling from Washington, D.C., through Tel Aviv, Israel, to Baghdad, Iraq, May 15-20, 2008, "to discuss matters of mutual concern with government leaders" included members of Congress and their spouses and cost $17,931 per hour in aircraft alone. This flight included the purchase of the long list of alcoholic drinks.

According to a "Memo for Record" from a March 29-April 7, 2007, CODEL that involved a stop in Israel, "CODEL could only bring kosher items into the hotel. Kosher alcohol for mixing beverages in the delegation room was purchased on the local economy i.e. bourbon, whiskey, scotch, vodka, gin, triple sec, tequila, etc.

We all know that corruption isn't limited to Democrats and there's plenty of criticism to go around on both sides of the aisle. But the Democrats set themselves up as the ones who stand for the little guy. What a crock! The poor are just convenient props while they attack the rich which never includes them. They, we are told, are public "servants." Have you noticed much serving on their parts? Nancy uses the military as her personal house boys (and girls). She needs to be retired in disgrace for her corrupt practices.
