As I said when Bill Clinton was elected the first time.

"Only the President (whoever he is) knows the real secret
history of the United States.
ONly HE is privy to the secret diplomacy of past Presidents."

We think we know a lot, and we get dribs and drabs as time goes on but we never know all of it. Some we will NEVER know.

There is a certain threshold in every society that a government can break and still retain the People's confidence. When a government goes beyond that threshold, that is, when the People start to criticize the government's actions, there are two ways to deal with the new issue about lack of confidence: bribe the People back to confidence (tax breaks) or crush the People in the street.

In either case, it is a sham about truth; in our free society here in America, truth is the beacon of our republic.
