For nearly three-quarters of a century, the spirit in my decrepit body has inhabited this planet. After having learned speed-reading in the 1960s, I have devoured countless books and written works, and have been perpetually driven by an insatiable desire to achieve and maintain episteme. Near the top of any list I might compile of the most enlightening works I've ever read, one would find G.

Most people don't know what FEMA is. Most of those who do know that it stands for Federal Emergency Management Agency mistakenly believe it is a federal agency whose mission is to assist local communities hit by natural disasters (floods, tornadoes, forest fires, etc.). That is the purpose for which it was originally established. But it was reorganized in 1991 for other purposes entirely.

It wasn't too many years ago that Americans could enter and leave courthouses unimpeded. Spectators with concealed carry permits freely sat through trials with loaded handguns in their shoulder holsters. Then one day a crazed gunman, bent on revenge, shot at a judge. Later that year another convicted felon shot and killed a judge. How could this have happened? How do we prevent it from happening

Lincoln's Phony Legacyby Ellen GilmoreLa Grange News LTEI have a more accurate view of Lincoln from some well known, documented facts. This is not an exhaustive list by any means. It just barely scratches the surface to debunk the phony "legacy" put forward by the academics who have their professional reputations (and income) wrapped up in published books and articles that deify Lincoln: all

Caveat: I don't expect or want anyone to confidently accept or blindly believe anything I write as being factual. What I want to achieve is to motivate folks to look into matters for themselves and find the truths as they are, not as they are "told" they are or as they would wish them to be. If you mistakenly believed the United States of America is governed by a Constitution for the United
