How many trillions must be spent, and how many Americans must die, and be strip searched by the TSA, and guns confiscated, before we all realize the truth has been hidden by redacted dotted lines and missing words? Every American needs to demand answers from Obama and Congress and others.
When, and only when, Americans decide to return to self responsibility and small government, it will then be possible to have some semblance of honest government - but only so long as the citizens are zealous in their watchfulness over such of their sovereign powers they agree to delegate to public employees.
Had the Founders had our communication net, Congress would meet via video conferencing and the CongressCritters would be living in their constituents communities.
