'The entire scandal narrative was an illusion'

[DeSwiss]

106. This is NOT about ''scandals.''

It is NOT about Snowden.

It is NOT about Obama.

It is NOT about threats to anyone's presidency. That is irrelevant at this point.

This is about nothing short than the continuation of this BS we call a world order.

A true ''journalist'' would know this instinctively, and would have never questioned his/her motives for seeking TRUTH.

Apparatchiks on the other hand will ruminate, regurgitate and fulminate about what they are doing, and whether it's ''the right thing to do'' or not.

Your opinions are fine, as opinions. But like asses, everybody's got one.

Just report the facts.

We have to learn how to create opinions for ourselves.

- At some point....

“Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission.

How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. ” ~ Alan Moore, V for Vendetta
