4. Worse yet, she's on the warpath and banging her wardrum.

The warmongering is just as disgusting as it is on FauxNews. The hyped up, shameless fear mongering is detestable. Obama diplomatic efforts, his every utterance are whipped into imaginary thoughts and fictionalized facts about his presumed guilt for the Paris attacks.

Just like last time, gone are old familiar progressive voices of sanity and reason as MSNBC. The new memos have gone out and the few remaining hosts are wound up like dutiful automatons to parrot the corporate line as MSNBC tries to dress itself up like a disgusting, dimwitted and sleazy clone of FoxNoise.

Now the push for war is on 24/7, and I hear Andrea Mitchell and Brian Williams madly offering up the same Fox-style news of wild, unfounded speculations and conspiracy theories with their best frowny faces tacked in place; feel the fear yet? They might as well bemoan the lack of flag draped caskets, the weeping widows, the dearth of little Made in Chinese plastic flags and the bewildered look of wee orphans available as background props for their faux 'news' reporting.
