“Every time sensitive intelligence is leaked it hurts this country.” Our fearless leader came out on his pulpit today and told us this again. He said it with all confidence that he is to believed as the leader of the free world. Which, I agree our leadership should be beyond reproach and with absolute faith we should place our trust in that leadership. Problem is we have been repeatedly lied to and mislead by this current administration.

And today is no different.

I am as sick of it as you are. However, we must not forget that we’ve were lied to about so many things:

The reasons we are waging war powers in a police action.
The threat of weapons of mass destruction (in Iraq then, in Iran now).
The underlying truth supported by facts regarding the destruction of the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
That there were no secret meeting between “Duck” Cheney and oil company executives to rewrite regulations on how to screw us all.
The fortune made by Halliburton charging and over charging “We The People” for service related to our military outreach, has nothing to do with the fact that Cheney is still on their payroll.
That “Renditions” continue, to this day, despite full acknowledgement that the activity is illegal and we are told that were to cease.
That the electoral process is fair and free of corruption.
That the “No Child Left Behind” is really a tool to federalize the education of our children.
That the “Clean Air Act” is not a protection of polluters to evade their responsibilities.
That “Homeland Security” is not a framework to impose a police state.
That the “Patriot Act” protects our rights and freedoms.

And the single greatest lie of all by this administration:

“We are here to help.”

Perfect double speak.

This mornings impromptu speech was to rebut the USA today article that clearly states that all our communications are being monitored and collected, with the intent of data mining to collect behavior patterns to watch us. And wee are being told to believe that not one of our phone calls has been reviewed in this program without a court order.

This is a lie that defies all logic relevant to the facts. In order to search a database, you have to review the files, all the files. The files also must have been collected or subjected to seizure. Blatantly, search and seizure have already been completed. Our Bill of Rights states that should not happen without a warrant provided by a judge that has witnessed probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation. Which means they really have put the cart before the horse.

In the design of the government that represents “We The People”, our elected officials are to be trusted to be one thing and one thing only:
power hungry and selfish human beings.
Every thing else is meant to put reigns on the power of elected officials and govern their interaction with “We The People”.

Our Imperial President has forgotten “We The People”, as if we were a burden in the way of his agenda.

The question for us is: What are we going to do about it?
