Traitors in Our Midst
This was written a couple thousand years ago, but seems so fitting today…
Could very well be about the Bush crime family, or the Clinton crime family, or the Rockefeller crime family, or the candidates running for the office of president (with the exception of Ron Paul, and maybe also, Tom Tancredo and Mike Gravel), or the numerous governors selling out their own states to foreign interests (e.g., Schwarzenegger, Perry), or the DHS head himself Chertoff (who is actually a citizen of a different country, and who’s name coincidentally translates to “devil” in Russian), or any of these people, or even the notorious Henry Kissinger (to attempt to solely list all his nefarious activities would require an entire book). Oh, so many traitors in our midst to choose from….
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
A murderer is less to be feared.”
– Marcus Tullius Cicero
