Bear with me

I'm different from a lot of progressives. A lot of progressives are against war for any reason. I disagree. I feel if there is a "Clear and Present Danger" (credit the book and movie) if it is necessary to deal with a threat do it.

I supported going into Afghanistan and getting Osama Bin Laden (who eventually was found in Pakistan). In other words, there was a reason to be there.

I did not support the Iraq invasion and occupation. In my opinion there was no threat, and as we found out every reason given was a lie.


Now onto today's news... I feel North Korea is a threat. I feel Iran is a threat. I would support any invasions of those countries.

I do not feel Syria is a threat unless they attack Israel. Otherwise it is their civil war and we should not be involved.

Just Go

Harry Reid must go. Quit. Resign. He is nothing but a fucking coward who doesn't care how many people die from gun violence. He won't bring an assult weapons ban up for a vote. Just QUIT YOU FUCKING WEAK ASS LOSER!

10 years later

10 years since we invaded Iraq I think we need a few reminders:

We were told they had weapons of mass destruction. They didn't

We were told the war would pay for itself cause of the oil there. It didn't

We were told how quick it was going to be. It wasn't

We were told how getting Hussein out of there would stablize the region. It didn't

Everything we were told about invading Iraq was a lie. And thousands upon thousands of soldiers have died, are wounded have ptsd. No one cares about them.

Remember the innocent.

March Madness

If anyone is up for some March Madness I created a league at ESPN

Great Theater But

Watching Republicants go after each other is great theater. But they lie so much even when they are trying to attack the other they don't know what they are saying.

For example I give Karl Rove. At the CPAC convention Sarah Palin went after Rove and his wanting actual sane Republicant candidates (an oxymoron I know) so Rove responded on False News saying how if he ran for office and won he wouldn't leave mid term like Palin did.

Problem with that is when he served under Bush he did leave in the middle.

Meet the New Pope, it's the same as the old Pope

So there is a new Pope. Unless he tells his Cardinals to release all the information and subject themselves to any prosecution for the crimes they committed for covering up their Priests for molesting children, nothing will change.

Those who fail to understand history

Those who fail to understand history are doomed to repeat it. It's an old saying but still rings true.

Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan ran the election on Paul Ryan's budget. Not only did they get the asses whipped in the election, Ryan lost to President Obama in his district. Republicants lost seats in the House and Senate when they had prime opportunities to gain seats cause of this poor plan.

 You would think a lesson would have been learned but no, since the Republicants are stupid, they don't.

Paul Ryan released another budget and guess what..NOTHING HAS CHANGED!

Some people never learn.

wrong

So Mitt Romney continuing to show his ignorance and well stupidity told False News that he lost because "minorities love Obamacare"

Wrong.

Mitt Romney lost because he was a piss pour candidate with no ideas except those which failed EVERY TIME they have been tried.

THAT is why he lost.

Congrats Republicants. You wanted to destroy the Government cause of your hatred of President Obama, you got it. You wanted this with the sequester. You got it. Your hatred for America is complete. Now YOU LIVE WITH THE RESULTS.
