8. Yep - it was always bullshit

They just had spent a lot of time and energy crafting group tested talking points in the 90s, simple general statements that were bullshit, but required a 2,000 essay to refute.

But, post 9-11 they got lazy, used terrosrism as a sledgehammer for everrything for the next 6 years, then completely regressed into a petulent state of simply getting up in the morning, seeing something on cable news and screaming about Obama, then Hillary.

Completely forgot about any aspect of civil service/governance, spent half their time and power relentlessly making political hay over benghazi and emails, the other half hobnobbing with their rich masters/figuring out how to graft tax payer dollars.

I had heartburn in the 90s, saw where it was headed, and have felt so helpless since then seeing this country indulge their bullshit time after time after time after time ...
