213. You can't fool all the people, all the time.
Unless you have a truly remarkable budget. Then, all bets are off and anything is possible.

I don't have a link, because it's just my take on Watergate and the rest going back to the Bay of Pigs Thing:

The War Party -- the NAZI, Military Industrial Complex, Wall Street, CIA, Mafia, Commie Rat Bastards that are the BFEE -- only like one state of affairs. And that is that they are in political power, command the military, control the banks and money supply. And these crooks use the same to maintain their positions in all three.

Consider Nixon had just opened up relations with Red China and detente with the Soviet Union. Short time later, Dick gets the Watergate ziggy.

Consider Carter, as President-elect, had told the JCS he planned to cutback the nukes and the emPHASis on the Pentagon in order to build a better world. Short time later, he gets the October Surprise ziggy.

Consider Reagan had just given away Star Wars in exchange for the elimination of all nuclear weapons in Reykjavik. Short time later, Ronnie gets the Iran-Contra ziggy.

Poppy did OK. Even with Iran-Contra. Even with Iraq-gate. Even with the S&L Looting. Even with BCCI. Gee. Can it be any more obvious?

The first President who knew what he was up against and stood up to them was John F. Kennedy. Too bad he stood, in the halls of government, pretty much alone. Our world today would be much better off if he had lived and halped lead the development of new generations of Americans who believe anything good is possible. Instead, we are cannon fodder.
