LINCOLN AND THE "Occupied Town" (Bill Moyers)

Post by Zlatko Waterman » October 5th, 2006, 10:40 am

A fine Bill Moyers piece, outlining the essence of Washington today. Moyers
uses some of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address to point out the contrast between AL's hopes and dreams and the realities of a lobbyist-dominated U.S. government.

"(. . .) This is an occupied city, a company town, and government is a subservient subsidiary of richly endowed patrons."
