Democrats on Dick Cheney BEFORE They Decided They LOVED Him...The BEST of Dick Cheney! ENJOY!!

 

Democrats and the media spent years demonizing Dick Cheney but suddenly all is forgiven and Cheney is now a hero of the left. 

Never forget the evil that is Dick Cheney.  The media couldn't get enough of attacking Dick Cheney for torture, warmongering and being one of America's most murderous neocons.   During the Dick Cheney era, opt eds almost always echoed this theme. 

Dick Cheney, American Warmonger / In which the pallid, angry veep fervently urges bombing the hell out of Iraq, because he just can't help it

We have a war-crazed vice president. An addict, a verifiable military junkie. Many of us perhaps do not fully realize this. 

We are very unfortunately saddled with one of the least charismatic least interesting most intellectually acrimonious and most desperately hawkish, violence-hungry, soulfully inscrutable vice president in decades, and he wants this country at war, now and always. Oh yes he does.

Hopefully the Cheney, Bush and McCain dynasties are coming to an end because humanity couldn't survive much more of these evil psychopaths. 

BTW, I'm hardly defending the Democrats on foreign policy because they are anything but antiwar.  Who got us into WW I, WW II, Korean War, Vietnam War and the Balkans Wars?  All liberal, progressive Democrats: Wilson, FDR, Truman, LBJ and Bill Clinton.  The cumulative death tolls of those liberal, progressive Democrats wars is over 100 million folks. 

Right now the Biden Administration's foreign policy is so dangerous that it's literally risking wars with nuclear armed China and Russia.  Why?  To protect the thieving and evil Biden Crime Family.

There is something profoundly disturbing about a country that wages endless murderous wars against humanity...I call it murdering for defense contractor profits. 

The Democrats and Elites Have a Disaster Brewing With Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Some Crazy Theories! Maybe Not So Crazy!!

 

Democrats, the media and the elites are in a pickle of a mess.  Joe Biden, the dementia stricken blob installed in the White House by the elites via massive election fraud, is a total embarrassment domestically and internationally.  He can't even read the teleprompter without screwing up and his gaffes are now numerous and legendary.  The 'President' of the United States of America is the laughing stock of the world. It's truly cringeworthy!  Yes, he belongs in a nursing home or maybe even a facility for the criminally insane!!  Biden is just a sick old man who is GONE. 

I never doubted that Biden was expected to be a TEMPORARY president and that Kamala Harris would be 'groomed' to replace him and make history by becoming America's first female president AND a woman of color at that.  Sorry Hillary, you are DONE and will never be anybody's president. 

Well, Kamala isn't working out too well.  Despite being a youthful 57 years of age with a creepy boss turning 80 in November, Kamala is proving to be a bigger disaster than Joe.  She's clearly flunked her grooming and her popularity is lower than whale shit and continues to sink.  Nobody likes her.  I call her Giggles because everytime she opens her mouth, she bursts into giggling and laughter.  This is a symptom of an individual who laughs when they have no answers or clear thoughts on an issue or question.  LOL, it seems that Kamala has giggled her way through life when she wasn't sleeping her way to high office. 

What will the elites do?  With Biden and Harris making a total mockery out of the positions of President and Vice President, arranging an untimely demise for them is something that has undoubtedly crossed the mind of the elites.  Biden could easily use his well documented medical issues as a tool of retirement/resignation but Harris is more complicated but when the elites are determined to get rid of somebody, it's always doable.  Unfortunately, Nancy Pelosi is third in line for the presidency and she's a worse disaster than Biden and Harris. At 82, octogenerian Pelosi is hardly electable in a general election and if there is one thing that is consuming the elites right now it's Donald Trump in 2024. 

Oh yes, remember The Donald? The Donald has a base that loves him and even those who hate him are so disgusted with high gas prices, the crappy Biden economy and crazy social issue nonsense like using our taxpayer funded schools to groom children for sex while forcing them to hate each other with evil doses of Critical Race Theory that Democrat voters just might hold their noses and vote for Orange Man. Besides, the Hispanic and African American vote seems to be weakening with the Dems as they want safe communities and economic opportunities. What most ordinary Americans of all colors want the Dems cannot deliver. 

The governors race in Virgina was indeed instructive on many levels.  The Dems lost the suburban white vote and voted for Republican Glenn Youngkin.  It was a painful and earth shattering defeat for the Dems but they deserved it.  The Dems were allowing males to pretend that they were females into the LADIES ROOM where they sexually assaulted school girls.  If that wasn't bad enough, they then attempted and failed to cover it up this horror.  

Anyway, the Dems are desperate for someone who can defeat Trump or any Republican for that matter but especially Trump and there just isn't anybody.  While some in the media are fanticizing about a Trump-Clinton re-match in 2024 it's just not looking good for the Hildabeast.  She's too old, too white, too corrupt and with the special prosecutor John Durham suddenly going after her campaign for a multitude of serious improprieties including Russiagate, the elites seem determine NOT to resurrect her ambition to become POTUS even though it's something she views as her manifest destiny.  Hillary brings nothing to the table except scandal after scandal as well as massive doses of victimhood and perpetual whinning.

So what is an elite strategist thinking?  There may be only one way out of their dilemma.  Allow the Republicans to retake the House in November midterms.  Yes, after 2020 we now know that all elections are rigged.   Then make a nice establishment neocon Republican who is practically a Democrat anyway Speaker of the House.  That would be Representative Kevin McCarthy, a guy who is just a California bred Bushbot.  He's definitely elitist approved and a notorious Rino. 

With a Speaker McCarthy firmly planted as Master of the House, the elites can then work on dispatching Joe and Kamala to retirement or well...whatever.  The only critical goal is to put the Republicans Rinos back in the saddle at least temporarily and neuter the handful of truly conservative Congress Critters.  

The big neutering prize of course would be Trump.  Stopping Trump is critical because it also stops his populist base, something that has become a huge thorn in the side of those arrogant Rino rat bastard Republicans.  

The RNC and Republican Party are generally Trump hating and they haven't forgotten how Trump literally squashed heavily funded and heavenly delivered Jeb Bush in the 2016 primary.  It was a humilitating defeat for the Bush family, a political family I've always detested, and the Republican establishment. Not only did The Donald smack them good and hard, he raised a loud and passionate base of working class populists.  Let's face it, the working class in America has always been royally stiffed and Trump gave them a voice and a seat at the table. For Trump the working class was multi cultural and colorful: blacks, whites, browns...just everybody.  Trump wanted them all to succeed and live the American dream.

The elites, the Republicans and Democrats have one critical goal: slay Trumpism and his populism once and for all and silence those pesky voters who want to believe that their votes count and things can change for the benefit of the working class.  

Once a long, long time ago the workers in America got a fairer share of the wealth pie but their share has been shrinking significantly while oligarch power has increased along with a massive allocation of wealth going to them alone and nobody else.  Well, the bankster and MIC always get their cut of a debauched and dying dollar that has further trashed the working class proletariat by reducing the purchasing power of their fiat greenbacks. 

One thing is certain. Honest elections will never again happen in America, at least not until the election fraud perps have been brought to justice for the crime of literally destroying We the People democracy with fraudulent ballots, ballot harvesting and counting the votes of the dead. The elites/globalists are very much in control. Creeps like Zuckerberg literally control election outcomes.  

Anyway, the elites care about one thing: POWER. Trump kinda messed with them and they used the evil media to knife him in the back and yes they had a ton of support from Republicans. They want Trump GONE and they also seek to neutralize the populists in the Republican Party like Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Green.

BTW, I'm not a Trump fan but an independent who mostly votes 3rd party but I did vote for Trump because he was the least lethal electable option and for this antiwar activist the Hildabeast needed to be defeated.  Rand Paul was my choice for president, still is but I'm also wild about FL Gov. DeSantis.  He seems exceptional logical, practical and he delivers to the folks in Florida without all the melodrama of Trump. 

As much as I dislike Trump because of his bloviating ego and total lack of humility, I wasn't unhappy with his presidency.  Trump didn't start any new wars, he tried to wind down existing wars and he focused on restoring manufacturing in America.  Manufacturing has always been the mothers milk of working class and middle class prosperity because it elevates them from burger flipping jobs and minimum wage poverty. 

So where is the Republican Party? It's back to elite/rino control of the Republican Party vs. populist control of the Republican Party. The elites HATE the populists and antiwar folks.

Yes, the battle is raging for the soul of the Republican Party.  This is one war that is far from over. Frankly, I'm never optimistic that Republican primary voter will ever vote for liberty; they seem addicted to creeps like Lindsay Graham and MitchMcConnell.  Are Republican voters just too dumb to understand that they hold the power to just fire the Rinos in the primaries?  Do they even want to?  History screams NO but the times they are a changin and opportunity continues to knock.....

Ronald Reagan's Cautionary Warning on Regretting Sending the US Marines to To Beirut, Lebanon

 

President Trump attempted to pull out of Syria and Afghanistan but was stopped by the #Democrats and #SpeakerNancyPelosi, here and here. It's important to understand the cautionary words, sorrow and logic of President Ronald Reagan on why he pulled out of Lebanon after 241 US military personnel (220 Marines, 18 Sailors and 3 Soldiers) were killed in a suicide bombing in Beirut on October 23, 1983.

Reagan sent the Marines to Lebanon on a peace keeping mission.  The nation was embroiled in a lengthy civil war involving several factions that included Sunni, Shiite, Christian, Hezbollah, Israel & other factions. Tribalism and religious sects define the Middle East and feuds are quite common. 

America is seeped in the delusion that we can fix anything with a military intervention.  However, the US foreign policy establishment consists of know nothing idiots with collossal egos who believe that anybody will submit to the US if enough pain is inflicted with bombs, occupations, brutality and sanctions. Not only is it a recipe for disaster, its a policy that has rightfully earned America the reputation of being an arrogant and murderous global bully.  

Reagan is one of the few who actually reflected on one of his military intervention decisions; the Beiruit bombing weighly heavily on his conscience.  Going forward, his remarks should be a lesson on how things can go wrong and mostly do.  Yet the policy wonks are just too damn arrogant to ever learn from their mistakes. 

Although Reagan was accused of cutting and running, he grasped a deeper understanding of the foreign policy situation.

 "Perhaps we didn’t appreciate fully enough the depth of the hatred and the complexity of the problems that made the Middle East such a jungle. Perhaps the idea of a suicide car bomber committing mass murder to gain instant entry to Paradise was so foreign to our own values and consciousness that it did not create in us the concern for the marines’ safety that it should have.

In the weeks immediately after the bombing, I believe the last thing that we should do was turn tail and leave. Yet the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics forced us to rethink our policy there. If there would be some rethinking of policy before our men die, we would be a lot better off. If that policy had changed towards more of a neutral position and neutrality, those 241 marines would be alive today."

Sadly for America, we are now experiencing the horrors of another foreign policy failure.  The situation in Afghanistan is turning into a bloodbath as Biden and his foreign policy wonks ordered the US to withdraw and all without a plan to secure a nation torn apart by decades of war and bombings, from the Soviet invasion to the US being there for 20 years. 

This is another foreign policy failure that won't fade quickly and is likely to get worse, far worse.  A major humanitarian tragedy is unfolding.  The simple truth is that the US can't save Afghanistan or implement a functioning Jeffersonian democracy in a nation of Muslim tribes.  Cutting and running from this quagmire is long overdue.  Afghanistan isn't worth anymore US human or financial treasure.  We NEVER should have invaded in the first place. 

Historically speaking, Afghanistan has never been successfully invaded by anybody. It's rugged mountainous terrain functions as a natural defense barrier, as does the feuding tribalism of the Afghan people. The British were literally slaughtered there and Alexander the Great, viewed as one of the greatest conquering generals of all time, failed to subdue it.   

Whatever the future holds for Afghanistan, it's not good.  The Tailban is ruthless, murderous and will slaughter its perceived enemies, real or imagined.  That's the Muslim way. 

Anyway, somebody on Twitter posted this pix along with a very astute observation "Pulling out was always going to be a shit show but it didn't have to be this incompetently managed." 

The 19 Senators Who Stand With Biden, Pelosi & Schumer on a HORRIFYING Infrastructure Bill, The Republican Party Explained

 

It shouldn't shock anybody that enough Republican senators conspired with the Democrats to deliver a whopping victory to Biden, Pelosi and Schumer.  It's how the Republicans operate.  Conversely, the Dems NEVER conspire with Republicans to deliver victory to a Republican president unless of course all the R and D neocons are singing in unison for the neocons, MIC and forever wars. 

Republicans voters scream they will vote them out of office...well, primary them out of office but that never happens.  Republican voters are like dutiful slaves; they have their hissy fits, then suck it up and OBEY their corrupt to the core Republican masters. Its's no secret that the Republican Party elites and GOP officials laugh at the GOP base. quite contemptibly I might add, because they know that the rat bastard traitor Congress Critters are nearly 100% safe from ever being voted out of office.  The voters are just too damn dumb to get rid of them.  Ditto for the Democratic Party.  

Anway, the list of 19 Republican Congress Critters is a list that can be labeled the 'usual suspects' or mostly reliable Dem allies.  They are listed by the Senate class, Class I (up for reelection in 2024), Class II (up for reelection in 2026) and Class III (up for re-election in 2022).

7 Up for Reelection in 2022 

Blunt (MO)  (he's retiring, open seat)

Burr (NC)

Crapo (ID)

Grassley (IA) age 87

Hoeven (ND)

Murkowski (AK)

Portman (OH)

4 Up for reelection in 2024 

Cramer (ND)

Fisher (NE) 

Romney (UT)

Wicker (MS) 

8 Up for Reelection in 2026 (just got reelected and view themselves as safe from voters with short memories) 

Capito (WV)

Cassidy (LA)

Collins (ME)

Graham (SC)

McConnell (KY) 

Risch (ID)

Sullivan (AK)

Tillis (NC) 

The above senators do NOT represent their constituents or even their state.  They are just power hungry puppets of the oligarchy and special interests that fills their campaign coffers (banksters, MIC, big tech, whatever...). 

STOP:  If primaries are supposed to be a WE THE PEOPLE THING then why does CORPORATIST SPECIAL INTEREST MONEY control the process and shit all over We the People?  

It's the most valid question in politics because herein lies the great flaw in our demented fraud of a democracy.  It's not a We the People thing.  It's definitely a corporatist, oligarch and special interest thing.  

When real conservatives think about getting rid of corrupt Congress Critters, the first thing that functions as a knockout punch to the  primary process is the MONEY advantage, a money advantage so powerful that only other big money players can take it on.  It's how Trump defeated the establishment and Hillary in 2016, that and taking a powerful message directly to the people.  

In 2020, many Republicans openly and not so openly conspired with Democrats to defeat Trump, well, that and a boatload of election fraud ranging from dead people voting to mysterious un-creased ballots magically showing up in the middle of the night to allegations that the votes were somehow counted in Spain, Germany and possibly other foreign nations.  

So welcome to the sorry state of American democracy...the best democracy that oligarch money can buy!

Going forward, conservative voters, small government advocates and constitutionalists don't have a lot of options.  They are just perpetually stuck with being on the losing side of every election that they have ZERO control over. 

The ONLY thing that can change the equation and outcome is to get the special interest money out of the election process but hardly anybody in Congress will do that in a Pay to Play town where everybody is drunk on power and money.
