A big week for the climate debate in America….stay tuned.
The march in Manhattan is not the only place people are on the march.
70,000 Kurds have fled ISIS into Turkey in the last 2 days. Apparently the doctors and pharmacists boots on the ground strategy is not working so well. Here are some folks who think Obama's War in Iraq and Syria are not going so well. Wonder why the military told Obama we shoud keep a force in Iraq when we left and we should have acted earlier. Maybe Obama was not present when that was taught in community organizing class.
Hope your march in NY is more pleasant than theirs.
When are you enlisting? If you're so eager to fight on the ground, saddle up cowboy.
Fact: There have never been refugees in Iraq before Obama. Ever. Anywhere actually. Because history in the region began on January 20, 2009. An it is never the job of the chickenhawk P.O.S. to pay any wage for war-cheer-leading.
Nah, that wide yellow streak down his back and those continuously soiled underpants keep AChickenhawk safely at home and away from ever serving his country. Running his cowardly, fat, lying, feces-filled mouth, on the other hand…
+2,500,000 (the estimate of the number of people killed by wars justified by 9/11)
exactly. These friggin' cowards never met a war they didn't want to send someone else to fight.
Watching the FDR documentary on PBS I learned that when the draft was instituted for WWII that FDR's son, Teddy Roosevelt's son and several of the grandchildrean all volunteered to take up the fight.
Watching the same documentary Zapp, and it is excellent. TR even tried to make sure each of his four sons that were enlisted went to places where there was combat. Quentin ended up being killed in action.
And TR himself complained that he didn't get nastier wounds in Cuba while the charge up Kettle Hill and San Juan Hill. He was a pretty crazy man.
So unlike todays' GOTP chickenhawks….
Funny how ACHole only "cares" about refugees when he can kill American Soldiers "doing something about it"…..
Does ACHole know how stupid it is, or is it unwillfully ignorant?
ACHole is just looking out for his investments in the War Profiteer Hedge Fund. Gotta keep those dividend checks coming!
A WIF who also appears to be a psychopath. I'm sure he was really up in arms back in the Bush days when hundreds of thousands were being raped and slaughtered in Darfur by the Janjaweed (they killed an estimate 400,000 Darfurans between 2005-2007 and were funded primarily by the Chinese) because those souls weren't smart enough to know that you don't build your village over pools of oil that the Chinese government wants.
What did the American government do about it? We looked the other way. China was funding a significant portion of the Bush deficit at the time; if we wanted their money to fund the Iraq War and the Bush tax cuts we had no other choice to let them continue with their slaughter-for-oil program.
If you have Netflix and want to watch one of the best documentaries on the subject, watch "The Devil Came on Horseback".
The tally of death-for-oil under the Bush-Cheney regime is a balck mark on this country's soul – and I'm sure the WIF has conveniently forgotten that then-Senator Obama voted against the Iraq War.
Speaking of the old days and Darfur, do any of you remember when then-Speaker of the House Romanoff led the charge in Colorado on the divestiture movement for public companies operating in Darfur? The combined vote in the two chambers in favor of not supporting the genocide was 99-1. The long dissenter? My watermelon-farmin', I-am-a-solid-pro-life-except-when-businesses-have-to-kill-for-profit state senator. The lone. dissenting. vote. His reason: "it isn't governments business to tell businesses how to operate."
Something tells me the WIF and my old senator would find a lot of policy positions to agree upon.
So yes, WIF, yesterday's march is important for a lot of reasons. Not the least-of-which It's time to dry up these petro-dollars that seem to only serve as a death machine while destroy the only atmosphere we have.
Take your useless, sophmoric posts and choke on them.
As an Illinois State Senator Obama didn't have a vote.
No, but he did have a pretty good megaphone:
And as a sitting US Senator in 2007 he had this to say:
You may, being the impertinent fool you are, continue to try to mislead someone (anyone?) by doing this…
No one I know believes this is Obamas' war. Bushco, Inc., along with Halliburton, and the Carlyle group, and countless other disaster capiltalists, opened a Pandoras' box of death and destruction for millions of people…and trillions in profits for them. We, the American taxpayer and the soldiers we send to war, in addition to millions of innocent people in the Mideast will be a very long time escaping the ravages of George Bushs' war…
You are an idiot.
capitalists, that is…
I was in Bucharest this summer and drove right by a Carlyle group office right next to the airport. At the time I explained to my brother in law what they do and it blew his mind.

"idiot" is far too kind of a description for this psycho…
You know who should be billed for all of that shit?
The oil companies. And freeze/seize all their assets until they decide that the war isn't going to be worth any damn thing in their investment.
And start diverting all the war machine funds into alternate energy, including solar, wind, and hydro. Hell, invest billions into making hemp gas which is finite, unlike the sweet crude oil.
s/finite/infinite.
ColoPols, seriously – invest in a REAL editing functionality..
Now who's going to protect the Kurds from the Turks?
No truer words were ever written about the evil, ruthelsss, anti-democracy/anti-American GOTP and its despicable henchmen in the judiciary:
GOP Defrauds Voters | Leo W. Gerard
There's a push to find a new name for the Pig-Sh*t-Eaters led by a Messianic megalomaniac in the Middle East.
For some reason, their feelings are bruised if you don't call them by the name they chose for themselves.
Interesting: McCain Won't Campaign Against Colorado's Mark Udall This Year
Kind of a shame though; "Lets Invade Every Corner of the Middle East" McCain's stumping here for Con Man Cory would likely only increase Senator Udall's upcoming margin of victory.
Speaker BoenHead has his own "47%" moment — this should play well with the voters in Kentucky:
Because that worked out so well for the last guy who said such a thing, "Representative Grimes! Welcome to the House."
After which he said, "Let them eat cake!"
Here's some more of that good ol' GOTP "democracy" in action:
Wisconsin 'Militia' To Confront Dems Who Voted To Recall Walker At Polls
I think it might be time to form a White Panthers group and go kick some voter-intimidating cowardly hillbilly/redneck ass.
And oh – OW! — such pain and suffering as Teabagger economics (ie Reaganomics) takes another MASSIVE KICK in the 'nads!:
Sam Brownback’s failed ‘experiment’ puts state on path to penury – The Washington Post

Yeah DP, I saw
I saw that piece. How many time do these slow-wits have to try "let's not tax the people who earn the most money"? It's not new. 20 years ago when we endured a brief sojourn to Alabama they were stuck in what they called "proration". The state's economy was in the tank, they'd cut income taxes to the bone and were trying to run the whole state on sales and use taxes. The whole state looked like Colorado Springs. Dead parks, scant street lights, parents having to chip in on basic school building supplies. We were very glad to get back home. Then came TABOR… Oh, well…
