… with attention to the unseen
I know many dearly love to run the “hate Obama” mantra and simply cannot get beyond their own bias. Mine is the government has always consistently lied and misrepresented information to the masses. How can anyone believe a government that has been snooping into our private affairs for god knows how long believe that same government when it, finally, decides to say something. Absolutely nothing will change. They will simply set up new “rules” and then proceed to develop “legal” ways to circumvent those “rules”. The US government has been a shell game since day one and that shell game has continue to the present moment.
