US History Lesson: The Secret Government

Must See.

Originally aired on PBS in 1987, in this clip from "The Secret Government," Bill Moyers looks at the CIA overthrow of the Prime Minister of Iran in 1953.

Watch and you will no longer wonder why Iran (and so many other nations) hate us.

CLOCKS

A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked,

"What are all those clocks?"

St. Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Everytime you lie, the hands on your clock will move."

"Oh," said the man, "whose clock is that?"

"That's Mother Teresa's. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie."

"Incredible," said the man. "And whose clock is that one?"

St. Peter responded, "That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life."

"Where's Speaker Hasterts clock?" asked the man.

"His clock is in Jesus' office. He's using it as a fan."
