clear the Senate minority did not want this even written, much less released.

This belongs to the GOP, they own it, and Americans had better think about what they want their government to do. Sadly, I've talked to too many conservatives since the Bush era and it doesn't affect their base. They not only don't mind, they support it vehemently. Now let people who care to read it, do so. Then act upon it.

And there's the rub. But most of us who are truthful, will admit that this statement is not in any shape or form, true. It may be how some would like us to think of ourselves. Some caricature of the huddled masses still yearning to be free, and not making it yet.

Our way of life has come to us by way of the sacrifice others. And not just ''the troops'' who have secured our raw materials and resources. But with the blood of innocents staining that freedom we enjoy. If you look close enough, you can see it easily.

- While she is hardly alone, Diane Feinstein is the epitome of whom Terence McKenna was speaking of when he said:

''…we are led by the least among us – the least intelligent, the least noble, the least visionary. We are led by the least among us and we do not fight back against the dehumanizing values that are handed down as control icons…'' ~Terence McKenna

If the CIA makes the decision on what is redacted you can bet there will be lots of blackout.
