29. There would be no Iraq war but for the purity standards

Apr 2019

against Gore by the third party liar Naderites. That gave us Bush/Cheney and it’s their war. Republicans started the Iraq war.

Some of those third party liars did the same jobber on Hillary, so no more shirking responsibility for intentional strategies to screw Democrats over to “send messages”.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
