From the looks of it, this book is going to p*ss off a lot of those D.C. based criminals, especially the career politician types. The book is to be released May 24, 2016, and it is already causing a big stir.
Get ready to shatter all your idealistic illusions about how government works.
A new book called The Confessions of Congressman X, reportedly written by a sitting (and rumored to be Democratic congressman) promises to be an anonymous revelation of everything terrible you've always suspected about America's representatives in Washington. Choice quotes about Congress include:
- "Most of my colleagues are dishonest career politicians who revel in the power and special-interest money that's lavished upon them."
- "My main job is to keep my job, to get reelected. It takes precedence over everything."
- "Fundraising is so time consuming I seldom read any bills I vote on. Like many of my colleagues, I don't know how the legislation will be implemented, or what it'll cost."
But voters aren't spared his poison pen, either:
- "The average man on the street actually thinks he influences how I vote. Unless it's a hot-button issue, his thoughts are generally meaningless. I'll politely listen, but I follow the money."
- "Voters are incredibly ignorant and know little about our form of government and how it works."
- "It's far easier than you think to manipulate a nation of naive, self-absorbed sheep who crave instant gratification."
The Confessions of Congressman X is published by Mill City Press, a vanity imprint in Minnesota, and will be available on May 24.

This book will mean NOTHING until the identity and profession of this "anonymous" can be confirmed.
Eventually congressional politics will be banned in the USA once the democrat and progressive parties have been dissolved now that everyone has become aware of the actor based reality.Once the first US president not to use a pseudonym becomes elected his first action is going to be closing the democrat and republican parties and ban any further meetings by them. And in 2016 politics is pretty much dead in the US with some parties being over 100 years old. That needs to change. The only way to change that is through impact from countries coming from outside the countries of the old political parties or via boycott. Think about politics another way and lets describe the democrat and republican parties as a dead bird with wings. The bird could not fend itself because it could not decide where to go. One wing was against the other when it was all in its mind. Anybody thinking they can enter the body of that dead bird with the intent to bring it to life are idiots. There is no such thing therefore as resurrecting dead birds. The stories about birds being brought to life in the Bible are just metaphors. Not stories about real birds being brought to real life. So all this shit about the democrat and republican parties stops once those parties are banned. Banning these parties therefore means literally banning them. Furthermore using a pseudonym while running for office like so many actors playing politicians do today is no longer fashion. In fact if the democrat and republican parties do not discontinue something inevitable is going to happen - some accident and somebody is going to die because of it. Because when you become so careless that your own life does not matter either then inevitable it will result in an unavoidable accident, usually one involving something catching fire. Because the White House is a building which requires care so that it can be used further in the future it is simply not possible to elect a democrat or a republican to work in that building anymore. For politics the spirit in the building is now ineffective unless another building is occupied with the energies required to change things in politics. People need to start realizing that the energy they bring with themselves when they enter buildings is not going to leave with them when they go out but is instead going to stay. Obviously once we all understand this entering and leaving a house will be done more respectfully than is done today when a house is just entered, usually to cause as much negativity as possible and the guy who leaves it thinks his energy is going to just follow him. Same with the White House as it is with all other places occupied by people. And if this guy is going to change anything he should therefore leave the political party he just joined immediately and do what he wants to do instead of having to sit all day with the intent to look down upon everyone because they are not in the same political party as he is. My native Iceland has experienced similar things with our politicians as the White House unless people stop entering these buildings with the intent to just fill them with leftover energy they have no idea what to do with. Consider my native Iceland. There was a politician who used our native Icelandic Parliamentary building for years as a recycle bin for his negative thoughts. One day his 24/ 7 thoughts about politics had created such a negative atmosphere that he somehow had a freak accident and died from it. It was not his fault nor was it the fault that this was his negative energy at work. What was going on was that whatever he was doing that day he simply did not care because he had become so careless and the inevitable happened as a result. Bottom line is do not try to change a dead corpse because you cannot make a dead corpse move on its own. That is completely impossible just like it is impossible to change really old political parties unless you change things you want to change by leaving them first once you have joined them even if you are not using any pseudonym.

DARTH VINDEX, I DISAGREE. The problem is not the political parties, it is the criminals who run the parties. You failed to mention this in your posting. Examples of these party official crimes include the sudden appearance of super-delegates (secretly written by Democrat party administration criminals in 1974, and allowing Clinton to steal the nomination) and also the sudden changes in Rule 40 for the Republican party nomination process (which is currently being attempted by the Republican party leaders to deny Trump the nomination).
Trump and Sanders are refusing Wall Street money and refusing PAC money, and they are proving that the selection process within the parties is what is criminal, and not the parties themselves.
