Former Vice President Dick Cheney is back in the news with the release of his tell all autobiography, “In My Time“, a revealing “memoir” of his eight years as vice president, at the same time a self indictment that chronicles his abuse of power and total disregard for the Constitution and laws of the United States. It is also an indictment of President Barack Obama who has refused to prosecute him and President George W. Bush, instead choosing cover up the evidence by declaring it “state secrets” and to block any attempts to bring these war criminals to justice.
As Greenwald noted in his Salon article:
As he embarks on his massive publicity-generating media tour of interviews, Cheney faces no indictments or criminal juries, but rather reverent, rehabilitative tributes, illustrated by this, from Politico today:
That’s what happens when the Government — marching under the deceitful Orwellian banner of Look Forward, Not Backward — demands that its citizens avert their eyes from the crimes of their leaders so that all can be forgotten: the crimes become non-crimes, legitimate acts of political choice, and the criminals become instantly rehabilitated by the message that nothing they did warrants punishment. That’s the same reason people like John Yoo and Alberto Gonzales are defending their torture and illegal spying actions not in a courtroom but in a lush conference of elites in Aspen.

Kissinger was my first thought. But with so many to choose from….
See anomalies of Denver International Airport, the future capital of the evil “Illuminati” scientific dystopian dictatorship.
State secrets. What secret, that “we” have been run into the ground by assholes? Hey, it’s no secret other than the fact the MTV set don’t care/can’t stop working 97 hours a week or is too busy playing phone apps.
Some reports indicate that a powerful off world psychic was sent to one of these top top evil families. The guy accepted the forgiveness of “God” and gave up his position of great evil influence and people manipulation. OK fine but that still leaves 12 more to go.
