Well Bruce, to follow up on that thought regarding what is gospel as the government trys to manipulate your opinions. I read in the mainstream media recently that the Pentagon had over 28,000 full time employees who's only job was to do PR. To convince us all that they are doing good things everywhere. That doesn't include what the CIA, FBI etc etc etc etc all are also doing. For an interesting that to that, start with Wiki if you want and read the sanitized version of "Operation Mockingbird". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird
1st sentence (currently) "Operation Mockingbird was a secret campaign by the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to influence media." Which they did and were stunningly effective with it too. From the congressional investigation: "The CIA currently maintains a network of several hundred foreign individuals around the world who provide intelligence for the CIA and at times attempt to influence opinion through the use of covert propaganda. These individuals provide the CIA with direct access to a large number of newspapers and periodicals, scores of press services and news agencies, radio and television stations, commercial book publishers, and other foreign media outlets." That was back when we had a "free" press too.

Oh if we could actually prove that, I might not be so sure about wiki, and i'm certainly not certain that it is gospel.
Here's the problem. It is plausible that the gubmint is salting wikipedia. Any amount of speculation on motives and secret buildings full of IT drones can establish that.
Its also plausible that waco and Bundyville are Agenda 21 probes.
If you are satisfied with plausibility in order to make a decision about anything, I'd like to sell you a bridge.

try this: reverse engineer it.
are there any reasons ( probability based) to doubt the official story of Waco? I do believe it has been scrutinized quite well, like Bengazi for instance.
establishing plausibility is useful, but only to get started ( idea) and is fairly easy (lazy)
establishing probability is necessary to finish ( theory) and takes enormous work and skill (not lazy)
If theory can survive a robust process of probability intact, there's likely something to it.

The deal is.... if you ever encounter a person who is certain about something yet they can only establish plausibility, you are talking to a nut case. An ideologue. A religious kook. A tin foil hat goomba. NWO fruit cake.
If you are going to restrict anyone from voting, they should be top of your list.... but that isn't ethical is it? "
