#1 At this point it seems every government agency is completely corrupt and needs to be dismantled. The problem is, that now the government holds more power than the people are willing to keep for themselves.

I don't know how we are going to get our country back and out of these tyrant's hands short of burning down all of DC.

#2 To the NSA in case you were listening: Darth was being rhetorical. As least as much as Darth Vader is ever rhetorical. He might want to squeeze your collective tracheas. Rhetorically, of course...

#5 Well, it appears that someone has been "warming up" an experienced campaign manager:

"Foreign Service officer Michael T Sestak was charged by the US government with selling non-resident visas (green cards), mostly for between $50,000 and $70,000 - roughly 1.5 million to 2.1 million baht.

He has been held without bail for more than a week as a "serious flight risk" defendant. Mr Sestak faces charges of conspiracy to commit visa fraud and bribery.

The story was covered up by the US State Department, but was revealed by McClatchy news agency last Friday.

The number of visas allegedly sold by Mr Sestak, 42, is not yet known. But a 28-page affidavit filed by the US government against him alleges he "received several million dollars in bribes" from Vietnamese seeking to emigrate to the United States.

The affidavit alleged:

"He ultimately moved the money out of Vietnam by using money launderers through offshore banks, primarily based in China, to a bank account in Thailand that he opened in May 2012. He then used the money to purchase real estate in Phuket and Bangkok, Thailand."
