i was given this book while attending a bluegrass music gathering in northern california by the veterans for peace. it was amazing! it restored much of my faith in our great country at a time in my life when i felt despondent and betrayed by my government. his convictions and honor helped me to reconsile the turmoil i felt within. i.e. my patriotism and love of nation vs. my sense of betrayal by a government ran wild. between this gentleman and good ol' thomas jefferson you can see patriotism and love of nation can be responsible and humane.
please anyone reading this take the time to read this short online book. it wont take long.
and it just may be interesting reading for you!

    • Smedley Butler stopped a planned coup against FDR, by a group of criminal bankers including GWB's Grandfather Prescott Bush. He is my hero. That is also a good read google it.

    • I couldn't agree more with this man.
      Spread it and spread it well! It's up to us as citizens (and thus, we SHOULD all be equal leaders, however the corporations have taken this away from us...) of the country supposed to be leading the "free" world to take action, be knowledgeable, and know the truth, even if it makes us uncomfortable. Few want to accept the idea that there are people who would murder thousands to save money. But sadly if you watch the world long enough you will realize how it is all too common.
