@gamemeat:

I agree with you totally. He is shrewd especially when cornered,

and hits the tone better even than W with people, who believe

that the government forgot or despises them.

Putin will stay very popular as long as he defies

Western aggression, may these be just in the form

of propaganda or of sanctions. Professor S. Cohen

stated that the huge power of the presidency in

the constitution was designed to be so due to

Yeltsin. Not everything is Putin’s fault. He has

behaved far more circumspect than the US for

the…[Read more]

I wonder if this was a Hillary revenge plan, since those

two women were in contact for a while. If so, then

Warren better watch out. Hillary is waiting for a

contested convention, not to help anyone else.

Bernie should mention that he was not the only one

to deny W the path to war. There were at least

20 Senators, who had a better judgement than Biden.

It took MM a long time to detect all her lies and

he still does not see that these were always used

to advance her career. As Gravel said once:

Warren is a careerist at heart. That is the reason

why she really does not have a movement.

Sorry for my ignorance, but who is mj Lee?

I thought about this for quite a while. This will

suit both parties then, because I don’t think that

the Repugs would like to see a debate between

Trump and Bernie either. Naturally we don’t

know whether Trump would even agree to one.

@rufustfirefly:

You forgot the perpetual wars. I saw her once questioned

about the defense budget, and she weaseled for quite a bit

without a clear answer.

They may be drooling over this, but considering

Trump’s ways I would have to agree with Bernie.

Even if you take away the tweets, I could see

Trump killing her chances in any debate.

Of course they were all in on the lie. Outside of that

I don’t think that Trump remembered that “Bethlehem

Doctrine” of imminent attack excuses, but Bolton

would have from W’s administration’s preventive

war explanation.

I will never vote for anyone who supported

the illegal war against Iraq. That decision was

and is the most important one any member of

Congress could make. As we see today the US

is not even willing to withdraw when asked to

do so; thus we are occupiers. No way would or

could I condone that by voting for Biden or

Trump!

And don’t forget the purging of 150,000 voters

in NY, which while proven was never persecuted.

@twilightsporkle:

Sorry, but I disagree. Nixon knew very well why

he first went to a lottery and then to elimination

of the draft. The dissent from families and friends

against that war with the conscription became too

strong. The Congress felt it as well, and thus at last

used the purse to stop the madness. The best reason

for the…[Read more]

@ohiobarbarian:

Now this is a true case for impeachment, if I ever heard

of one; that is if the congress has stopped to believe in the UK’s

Bethlehem doctrine . This idiotic doctrine (under Blair) claims

that “imminent” and “attack” cannot be defined. However, congress

is too dependent on its funders as well as the MIC/CIA. Yet I fear

that…[Read more]

@elias39:Thanks, I thought so. BTW I prefer the bitter/sweet

kind instead of the sugary one.

Well, I will say that much for HRC: While she would have done the same

or worse, she would have created (unsubstantiated) more believable

evidence to justify her action. These idiots now have no leg to

stand on.

This is happening a heck of a lot faster than I thought.

Will the Repugs beat the Dems in a retreat

effort? This is a very red state; thus others may follow.

@davidthegnome:

No, the Dems have not failed, on the contrary. I don’t

know how far this goes back. What I do know is that FDR

was considered a traitor to his class, and there was a serious

effort to get rid of him. The party got rid of Henry Wallace

to replace him with the pliable tool Truman. So the PTB

already then were part of the Dems.…[Read more]
