I prefer the republican form of government, where the people are sovereigns, and the government is their servant.
But if folks want the democratic form of government, where the people are subjects and the government rules them, who am I to say they can't.

Let's split between the doers and the takers. It would be interesting to see how takers would survive.

Benghazi cover-up, IRS targeting of conservatives, AP Scandal, universal surveillance of private citizens.

The response of most of the media may be summarized as follows: first, deny the story outright; second, accept that something happened, but claim that it has been blown out of proportion; third, admit that what happened was pretty bad, but insist that none of it is in any way traceable to the officials at the top of the hierarchy.

Forcibly collecting data from every electronic communication, in order to have the power to determine a person's patterns of behavior

Using the information-gathering powers of a federal agency to isolate, harass, and suppress one's political opponents is not the wayward act of a few low-level bureaucrats.

A consistent and repeated pattern of response to every revelation about the Obama administration = totalitarian propaganda.

They have failed us and it's time to take back their properties and money and sever their spying facilities.

Please forward this to your congressman and senators. Demand action. Keep us informed.

The congressmen and senators ARE the corrupt people in government. They, along with the president cooperate to use the fed for their own personal gain.

The correct organization to contact is your state's legislature.
