A Compendium of Various Official Lies, Business Scandals, Small Murders, Frauds, and Other Gross Defects of Our Current Political, Business and Religious Moral Lepers.
“When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes… Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain.”- Napoleon Bonaparte, 1815
“Corrupted by wealth and power, your government is like a restaurant with only one dish. They’ve got a set of Republican waiters on one side and a set of Democratic waiters on the other side. But no matter which set of waiters brings you the dish, the legislative grub is all prepared in the same Wall Street kitchen”. – Huey Long
“I fired [General MacArthur] because he wouldn’t respect the authority of the President. That’s the answer to that. I didn’t fire him because he was a dumb son of a bitch, although he was, but that’s not against the law for generals. If it was, half to three-quarters of them would be in jail “- Harry S Truman
“When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.” -Thomas Jefferson.
“Democracy is the art of running the circus from the monkey cage”
– H.L. Mencken
“For a quarter of a century the CIA has been repeatedly wrong about every major political and economic question entrusted to its analysis.”
-Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan,
The New York Times, 1991.
Don’t tell a lie! Some men I’ve known
Commit the most appalling acts,
Because they happen to be prone
To an economy of facts;
And if to lie is bad, no doubt
’Tis even worse to get found out!
My children, never, never steal!
To know their offspring is a thief
Will often make a father feel
Annoyed and cause a mother grief;
So never steal, but, when you do,
Be sure there’s no one watching you.
The Wicked flourish like the bay,
At Cards or Love they always win,
Good Fortune dogs their steps all day,
They fatten while the Good grow thin.
The Righteous Man has much to bear;
The Bad becomes a Bullionaire!
The Voice of the White House
Washington, D.C. November 10, 2016: “Hubris could well be cited as one of the reasons why portions of the electorate are so furious that Clinton did not win the election. She did take the popular vote but only by a small margin, but Trump took the electoral vote and is now the President-elect. This election was a clear contest between the political establishment and an outsider and the outsider, mocked and insulted at every turn by the American media, nevertheless resonated with a very large number of the voters, many, if not most, of whom are disgusted with the dog and pony show that has been official Washington for many years. The frantic attempts on the part of the American, and some foreign, media to denigrate and trivialize Trump had a negative effect and so we can expect much breast-beating and whining on the Internet sites of the major print media. It should not be termed “print media” because the public no longer reads newspapers. They do read the Internet and on the Internet we found the extensive Wikilkeaks papers. These showed, very clearly, the amorality, viciousness and contempt expressed by the leaders of political institutions and the result was a rebellion against them and their attitudes of contempt for the taxpayers who support them.” Continue Reading »
