The Video Congress Does Not Want You To See

In case you missed it... watch this Government Gone Wild SHOCK video "The Video Congress Does NOT Want You To See!" You are not going to believe this one! Click on the picture below to watch the video (only 3 minutes and 45 seconds). You may never look at members of Congress the same...

For a long time many have had the sneaking suspicion that our elected “leaders” in Congress are not going to Washington D.C. to represent us… but instead for their own personal gain. This video may just validate that assessment!

Using the net worth data compiled by the non-partisan Center for Responsive Politics we found a disturbing trend. The analysis of the information in this video has not been seen by anyone… not on Fox News… not on CNN… and you have not read about this in the Wall Street Journal…yet!
