(812 posts)Flashback to 2003 when Saadam crossed a thin red line in the sand and used the WMDs that Rumsfeld brokered in Gulf War 1.
Somehow those WMDs did not exist,yet 100,000+ Iraqis lost their lives so that we might save the people from a horrible monster.
Just like Assad.
I expect the Republicans to lie to me,i do not like it but i have come to expect it.
Eisenhower was the sole exception.
Now the so-called Democrat President is repeating the missteps of virtually every President since Ike.
He tried to warn us about the military industrial complex and apparently he was right all along.
Will we have 280 prosecutions as under the Reagan regime?
My guess is that those days are over and Nixon was right too,"If the president does it then it can't be illegal."
I do not believe that the people will be much swayed by tonight's plea bargain.
