"Presidential Puppetry," Andy Kreig's book, sheds light upon Rove Republican appointment to FBI

Last edited Fri Jul 19, 2013, 04:36 AM - Edit history (1)

Andy Kreig participated in two press conferences at the National Press Club the week preceding presidential election 2012. He was a moderator of the October 24, 2012, conference laying out the entire electronic vote rigging empire of Karl Rove. And, he was one of two members of the national press who participated in a press conference the day preceding the election in which the filing litigation in Ohio against ES&S and the Ohio Secretary of State was reported from Columbus. Clearly, Andy Kreig functions at the cutting edge of the recurring problem the United States has with the integrity of its elections.

However, Andy Kreig does more than rehash recent news. In this important work Kreig provides readers with background for the hidden dynamics of the current electoral and political scene. As his title suggests "presidential puppetry" addresses the way that intelligence operatives, perhaps most prominently CIA, groom candidates for major political offices in the United States. According to Kreig this grooming includes helping to gain access to education on favorable terms and providing assistance with the exposure of the scandal of their political competitors.

Kreig does not discuss much about whether Pres. Obama functions with a gun to his head – the stick used to influence foreign leaders, according to John Perkins in “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.” Rather, he focuses on the carrots and the assists that have been given to Barack Obama over the course of his rapid rise in the political hierarchy of American politics.

This could not be more timely in view of the pending appointment of James Comey for a term of ten years as director of the Federal Bureau of investigation. How else, other than by the appointment of a Republican with a history of supporting Karl Rove's candidates for president rather than Mr. Obama, could the national security complex better protect against any investigation of political assassinations, systemic election rigging, mass incarceration as a Jim Crow strategy and the most massive theft of the wealth and welfare of the people of United States by a cabal of greedy billionaires?

I especially appreciate Mr. Kreig’s recognition of the important role of public integrity champion Jill Simpson and cutting edge reporting and actions of the Columbus Free Press in delaying, if not denying the over funded and overbearing march of the national security complex toward tyranny in the United States of America.

version - it is PDF page 251)

Having jumped to the pages on Romney and finding out about the history of Bill Gay and his son Bob Gay, with Howard Hughes and the Mormon Church - I'm spellbound.

Now going to read about Governor Siegelman, Jill Simpson, Benghazi and Barack Obama.

I know I'm going to be disappointed in whom we are and what we are doing - as I'm already upset about the America Empire War Machine.

But it is better to be more informed and less ignorant;
than it is to be delusional about how "good" America is.
