Living History - Search for Truth

When you look at the past half-century, the current government in crisis reminds us a lot of Nixon's Watergate Scandals. Of all the players at the time, I would have never guessed that John Dean would have made it through to remain on the stage - but his colume at FindLaw today just gets to the heart of political insight. We the people must demand self-honesty - don't trust anybody that appears to be deceiving themselves. Look for how politician's arguments can be carried toward the extreme, and whether they approach fairness as you move further away from the mainstream. Follow the money : who pays, who gets?

How can you know about people? Who is there to ask and how do you know if the data is valid? Can you create a timeline for the person of interest and account for their location? But situational evidence doesn't becessarily mean coalescences. I attended a banquet on saturday where Winona LaDuke spoke to 200 people - i knew about half. An out-of -town member may know a dozen people - but the reactionaries guiding the lemming crowd could say - hey you were there, you must be subversive.

If you observe things and record, journalize thoughts, then the record can be set straight after the fact. What really happened is known to the people it happened to, and their reality of the scenario is the only one that can be truthful. What happens without truthfulness? Guess were gonna find howdt. But John Dean has some experience - this is a worthwhile thread he follows.
