Let me get this straight: Congress isn’t concerned that the National Security Agency is spying on Americans, but allow the CIA to spy on a Senate committee and it becomes a major intrusion?

The fact they vote their own wages and perks, exempt themselves from Obamacare, feed at the trough of big business, reduce or eliminate benefits for our armed forces and veterans (that some paid for with their lives, play fast and loose with Social Security benefits (to which we, the working class contributed), take “fact-finding trips” on the taxpayer’s dime, and do it all and more with extreme arrogance must infuriate more individuals than just me.

We the people really have no say in how our government should act. It is a well-kept secret as to what it really costs to support our so-called representatives in Washington.

Most news services are politically oriented and won’t report the truth unless it is positive to their aligned party. Investigative reporters are disappearing and the reporters at news conferences won’t ask the hard questions for fear of being removed from the “allowed” list. I can only hope that, if this letter is printed, I won’t find myself on the “no-fly” list.
