What about the Obama adminstration? Did you do your job and investigate them too? Did you investigate each and every member of their adminstration? Did you look in Obama's GIVE legislation that would force Americans and kids to participate in community service every year to our gov, excluding those who are religious and prohibiting those who partake in religious duties? It's outlined in section 125 of the bill. Why aren't you journalist outraged by this or writing articles questioning the constitutionality of this act? Do you not see the potential implications and danger of this bill and what it has the potential to do? I think opponents are referring to it as the Obama Youth Bill. You're right about a few things in your article. However, I would advise you to research the current adminstration because their expanding government like never before. They've bought out the automobile industry and the banking industry in the name of the people. They're trying to pass a Universal Health Care Bill, which is very similar to the one in Europe...I still don't understand how people can trust their government with their own health care? Especially with the history you just outlined in your article. It makes no logical sense. Theres got to be another alternative. One that doesn't put our lives in the hands of a small majority of rich politicians. What about Obama's new regulatory plan (giving the Federal Reserves Bank more control over our monetary system) and the national broad band plan? You know net neutrality..eliminating competition and free market on the internet...They claim their doing it in the name of the American people as well. With this plan, government will have the means of regulating and manipulating information and how it is processed through our very own computers. Potentially, that means that people who oppose the government would experience delays in uploading information or even clicking on to websites that provide information which conflicts with government's views. The internet as it is now, is not regulated entirely or controlled. It's free. Where are all you journalist? Why are you not investigating these things? The executive as well as the legislative branch are being unchecked like never before in history and you have the nerve to redeem only the past. What about living in the present and reporting the truth today and for our future? Did it ever occur to you that your kids are going to pay like mine will someday for the mistakes that we make and allow our government to make? This is not a political issue, this is a principle one...one that has many reprecussions for a variety of Americans. We are the ones who will suffer. Not our rich politicians or musicians, actors, judges and lawyers...but every day people... I am not here to bash the Democrat party. I am just outraged at how they are passing legislation left and right without being investigated by the very source that is suppose to be our watch dog.
