Dog being wagged big time

April 14, 2018 by badtux99

So, you have the former director of the FBI saying this:

“I honestly never thought these words would come out of my mouth, but I don’t know whether the current president of the United States was with prostitutes peeing on each other in Moscow in 2013,” Comey said. “It’s possible, but I don’t know.”

And you have the news media following the aftermath of the raid on Twitler’s lawyer’s office, allegations that his fellow oligarchs paid off former mistresses, and so forth.

What to do, what to do….

Oh yeah, that thing.

So, Cheeto Mussolini fired off $224M worth of Tomahawk missiles at Syria to distract from all the bad news coming out about him. Meanwhile, Flint, Michigan, needs only $55M to replace its pipes so it’s no longer poisoning children.

But apparently a dictator poisoning his own people somewhere overseas is more important than our own children getting poisoned. Make America first! TruMp! tRump! TrUMp!

Yeah, are we tired of all this winning yet?

    It is embarrassing that we can fire off a quarter of a billion dollars wotth of missiles at someone who is no threat to us, but can’t find 55 million dollars to stop poisoning our own people as a result of something that their own state government caused.

    Trump’s ego is not worth more than kids lives in Flint!

    Nothing about trump is worth more than those kids lives. If he wasn’t president he’d be worth nothing as just a human. As president his value is a massively negative number that will take years after he’s gone to learn just how negative.

    I’m not even convinced that Assad gassed the latest mob of people who purportedly kicked off in a cloud of chlorine. (And I wasn’t persuaded of the gastrocities when Obama was president, either.) There hasn’t been any independent confirmation from sources I believe that there was a gas attack, much less that Bashar did it. After the Iraq invasion crime against humanity, why should anyone believe anything that any government says? Especially the crooked U.S. one. I reckon that’s why Obama stepped back from the “red line” he mentioned as a reason for attacking Syria — he found out that the “official story” was bullshit. Even IF Assad, who’s no angel, did drop poison gas on rebels, it’s not Amerika’s job to get revenge. “Team America, World Police” was a claymation MOVIE, not reality.

    And don’t get me started on the Skripal poisoning. The narrative on that is as full of holes as their brains sadly must be. (From what I’ve read about the effects of that class of nerve gas — whoever made it — it causes irreversible damage to all sorts of body functions at the molecular level. I think that’s the reason why there have been no filmings of the father or his supposedly recovering daughter — they’re well and truly gorped.)

    The other questions: these brave heroic “rebels” are all funded by the Slaughterin’ House of Saud (our buddies!). Why is the assumption that Assad is worse? These guys are all Islamic State level crazies who would just kill all the Alawites, Christians, and Shia in Syria. Why do you think the war is so brutal?
