2. Lord, this is so bad-Hillary Clinton, chair of the U.S. taxpayer funded 'Milliennium Corporation"
doled out $6.5 million to "private contractors" in Honduras after the coup d'etat--while teachers and labor leaders were being shot through the head, or tortured, beaten and killed, and left out in the open to be found--a 'lesson' for all. And $11 million during the planning stages, for a total of $17.5 million, and that's just the the "Millennium Corporation" (Narconews research). John McCain was meanwhile funneling $43 million to rightwing groups in Honduras, through the U.S. taxpayer funded "International Republican Institute" (via USAID-NED). (Eva Golinger's research.) The total is now up to $60.5 million of our money to the coupsters in Honduras, just through Clinton's and McCains fingers in these porkbarrels. Imagine what the total must be if you add in the CIA budget for Honduras, the Pentagon budget for Honduras, the School of the Americas' budget, the Department of Agriculture budget and others. And imagine who this money is going to--rightwing tyrants, and all their "ten families"' private contractors, Chiquita International (which pays death squads to whack union leaders in Colombia), war profiteers, and professional liars like Lanny Davis!

Wouldn't that be cute, if our money just made a circuit--from our campaign contributions to Clinton to Lanny Davis, for the filthy business of campaign spin and lying, and from our taxes to Clinton to the Honduran fascists to Lanny Davis, who then tries to brainwash us with his goddamned lies about Honduras? It wouldn't surprise me at all if the "Millennium Corporation" is funding the P.R. (psyops/disinformation) of the fatcat Honduran businessmen who paid Davis. "Private contractors"!

Meanwhile--as Narconews reveals--Clinton is all into denying Nicaragua $62 million, in badly needed aid for the poor, for minor municipal election irregularities, they claim--but really, is it not because Nicaragua actually has a representative government that advocates for social justice? Isn't that why Nicaragua is being punished? That, and they won't funnel the money to fatcat businessmen? They actually want to use it to do some good?

Lord, haven't we seen this movie too many times? I am sick unto death of this mind-boggling corruption!
