    Good one, Winter P. They’re all scary. I don’t understand why people like this are the chosen ones to lead the human race. Where do we really start to fix this?

    What is even more bizarre, it that they seem to coordinate ties and suits! Go back and taka a look. It’s not every picture, but most! They wear similar/identical ties/suits for their photo-ops!

    Caption for photo:
    "Hmmmm, lets see here. Will we go with bloody-pulp red? or blunt-instrument bruise blue? Colin, what do you think?"

    What is it with you people?

    Have you forgotten about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Surely, if torturing and killing "little" people makes the leader of a nation who will help the US happy, that’s a good thing? After all, surely the ends justify the means, if the US gets what it wants and has to turn a blind eye to murder (again), that’s OK?

    Or have I misunderstood?

    Confused of the UK 😉

    Vive le revolution, mes amis.

    #5 Thanks CHERYL, good article. I feel the same
    and I’m furious with the disassociation tactics gov. and people use. No way is it or can it be justified. BUCK FUCH and the MSM for the lies outright and by omission.

    Cheryl – I hadn’t gotten to Clearinghouse yet today. Thanks for the link. We can’t even say of the tribal leaders in DC that "They know not what they do." Unforgivable.

    You’re all too right, Peg C, they know full well what they do – my dad was a civilian aide to the secretary to the army when they drafted his blue-eyed, allegedly dear son’s ass in 65. When will they ever learn? They really should bing back the draft, not to force every young person to "serve," but to bring about an end to the madness! Nuff said…

    Was that a sniveling Douglas Feith "Israeli spy" standing off to the side? These traitors keep showing up in the darkest of places. Rumsfeld has sent his grandaughters to go live in Israel. So why are these Israeli firsters found in so many trouble spots?

    They were probably there to get some training in torture tactics … or

    Maybe they have farmed out some of it to these guys … lower prices, no press, you know, the Warmart thingy …

    Hell, Winter P.(#13) I want to laugh at that one, but its too true and serious. You nailed it.
