Government being not quite honest is something that I've always acknowledged in the back of my mind, but this is the first time that I'm facing up to it. The only "part" of the "government" that I'll always trust is the military because those guys..... even if the highest leadership is a little off, they're real. They are absolutely dedicated to this country.
Our politicians and judges are not.
The party apologists are out there poo-pooing us as "purists," as if it's a bad thing that we've finally been pushed to a point of wanting to hold our elected officials accountable. It doesn't matter if you're a liberal or a conservative - both parties are going too far and there is zero accountability when they continually claim "the lesser evil." That's not good enough anymore. It never should have been good enough.
I hope you're ready to learn a lot with me. Obviously, "I'm" "lifting the ban" on political discussion between us. - And this is intended to be discussion; I don't want to debate unless it's as to the merits of our separate solutions. We have got to get past this partisan mentality as a nation if we want our country to remain at least as free as it is right now.
