There will ALWAYS be true believers since you can never prove a “what if”. Well, thank God for the Spanish American War or else King Alfonso XIII might have nukes us….

When I was little I recall not understanding why the Reagan administration was so prone to what I describe today as invective. Whereas the Obama administration is more aptly described as hysterical. The entertainment aspect of that is simply superb.

Nowadays, a CIA-Saudi manufactured demo, bin Laden, who was created to go after the Soviets that we lured into Afghanistan (to bankrupt them!). All that INFORMED people like us “know” about this rogue phantom demon over the last 2 decades was basically spoon fed to us by the government and therefore it is difficult to claim that the tweeting teen twits are any more IGNORANT than “we” are.

We have been living in 1984’s Orwellian Eurasia (NATO-land) for a long time and have had our Emmanuel Goldstein selected as well:

Other opinions seem to think that Ben Bernanke is a bigger THREAT to America than Osama bin Laden:

As for American soldiers, imagine patrolling Jihadistan where 8 year old boys and 75 year old grannies help plant bombs that maim your friends – it takes very little to dehumanize all the native population
into “g-oks”, “ragheads”, “n-ggers” and to treat them accordingly.

America manufactures foreign monsters to go after other monsters and then we turn our own boys into monsters to chase after the rogue monsters whom we created! USA!!! USA!!!

Next week, 5:00 a.m. calisthenics for Kindergartners. You cannot make this stuff up!

No need for special forces. Peace and prosperity in the lives of the good people of Iraq and Afghanistan should have been their reward for showing us, the Great Satan, the error of our wicked ways.

Had “We” been truly prescient, “We” would have impeached GW for stealing the election. Al would have surely brought all of our military forces home, given all oil producing countries in the Middle East free windmills in exchange for shutting down production from their carbon emitting oil fields. All of mankind would have been spared the fate of self combustion that “We” have as our destiny.

If only “We” could turn back the clock. Instead of shame, “We” too could be enjoying the bountiful blessings that flow from the “religion of peace”.
