      The man who sponsored the repeal of Glass Stegal Act is now telling We the People how the cow ate the cabbage.

      For all you liars: The House has passed several Bills, including budgets and the repeal of Obamacare. several other measures that limit this obstructive government. But Harry then stuffs them in his pants never to see the light of day again.

      Washington should have been closed a long time ago. It’s just a “den of theives”. It has served its corporate ad financial masters to the point of destruction of the republic. It has destroyed the Constitution and the rule of law. Close it now and prosecute. Keep in mind Reich is one of the perps.

      Re: U.S. Government corrupt employees committing despotism, discrimination, targeting, fraud, kick-backs, nepotism, etc. – So far we have the IRS, Freedom of the Press DOJ snooping, Benghazi, NSA data-mining, ObamaCare (no-choice health insurance with fines), government employees paid sex scandal and a host of other government departments’ corruption activities, etc.

      Take a stand against the IRS and other government corruption activities. The Tea Party Patriots is hosting an “Audit the IRS Rally” Wednesday, June 19, 2013 from Noon to 2pm at the West Lawn of US Capitol. Bring your voice.

      NSA data-mining director Alexander said it helped prevent dozens of terrorist events… Well, prove your statement to the American people and show & tell us about WHO, WHAT and WHERE; and name the trial dates and convictions of the terrorists that you caught from this data-mining.

      NSA data-mining / overall surveillance is unconstitutional. It’s a way to steal trade secrets, inventions, creative ideas, future information about mergers that are in private discussion, advance information on securities before press releases, etc., and can be used for targeting and blackmail. Our U.S. Congress must stop all financing for this NSA data-mining / overall surveillance and shut this activity down immediately. All private contract bids must be investigated to learn the flow of money. The FISA courts must be abolished.

      Corrupt government employees are using privacy Regulations and Unions to hide certain information from the public. Our U.S. Congress should vote on a new Bill to abolish these cover-up Regulations and Unions so that all investigations can move swiftly forward to get to the truth publicly.

      Americans would love hear from thousands of government employee whistleblowers disclosures. Edward Snowden is a hero, a true patriot to our U.S. Constitution and its freedoms that it protects. It is obvious that many of our government employees have been using their jobs for substantial corruption throughout the years. It’s all about money and deranged power.

      U.S. Government employees whether elected, appointed or hired must cherish and abide our U.S. Constitution and the freedoms that it protects 100% percent. Anyone that presents an exempt to tread heavily on any freedom should be hung.
