The Truth About Health Care Insurance Reform
Watch the White House's 'Truth' Video That Turns Out to Be a Complete Sham.

How to aggravate a politician
Article hinting why DHS bought 2700 armored vehicles priced at $1million each for a total of 2.7 billion dollars. We won't even get into the billions of ammunition issue. It's all about power. Ask yourself this: why do we need a paramilitary force so large that's dedicated to only US Soil? What are they preparing for? We have the National Guard for homeland disaster relief. To me it's clearly a power shift to create a civilian military force that rivals the US military. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what's going on. This article has the most logical reason why that I've seen yet.
