So the people of Crimea decided they would really rather not live under a right wing junta put in place by some neocon whackos in our State Department! Quelle surprise!
And we even have red baiting polls asking if us dirty commies support a non - existent invasion!
This all smells so familiar - the media lies, the "you're either with us or against us" Non-sense, the chickenhawks living in their own little world, where they can choose whatever color they like for their sky, and even change it every day if they wish to make it suit their ends - more death, more squandered resources, more money in the pockets of the MIC.
And I owe President Obama an apology - I didn't understand what he was doing when he had that soldier who had dione 10 combat tours as his guest at the state of the union address. I thought it was just an applause getter. I could not have been more wrong. He was sending a message to the neocons in congress who were clamoring for war in Syria. Of all the talk of Obamas broken campaign promises, it looks like he is keeping the most important one - working for peace, even if it means working quietly with Putin behind the scenes.
Apparently this infuriated the neocons who Did Slithers back into State, such as one Victoria Nuland, wife of PNAC co-founder Robert Kagan, so much so that she decided to undercut the President and send us backward all the way back to the cold war.
America drank the post 911 kool ade and suffered the consequences. All the corporate owned media bellowing and belligerent rhetoric rings hollow and tinny in my ears now. We won't get fooled again.
I hope to God this party offers a suitable alternative to Hillary Clinton for 2016. If so, I will work actively and tirelessly for that person in the primary.
To hell with all the neocons and their enablers. To them all, I say....
a-one, a-two....
