Pro-Hillary NeoCon pots calling kettles black

"Reckless" is an over-used word in politics.
However, rarely has it been so ironically used as it is now.
Prominent backers of the Iraq War inside and outside former President George W. Bush’s administration have come out against Republican nominee Donald Trump.
On Monday, 50 Republican national security officials signed a letter that said Trump would be the “most reckless President in American history.” The signees of the letter are a “who’s who” of Bush officials involved in the Iraq War.
Including in this list are Eliot Cohen, Dan Senor, and Max Boot, a national security analyst, has written a recent article titled, ‘No Need to Repent for Support Of Iraq War.”
And then there is John Negropronte.
John Negropronte, former U.S. ambassador to Iraq from 2004 to 2005, is also a signee on the letter published Monday that claims Trump is “unwilling to separate truth from falsehood.”
Oh, yeah. Truth and falsehood. Good one.
And if that wasn't enough neocons to make a person ill, Hillary wants them all.
Hillary Clinton is reaching out to Republican elites—including fellow former secretaries of state Condoleezza Rice and Henry Kissinger—to support her campaign over Donald Trump’s, suggesting a growing alliance between Clinton and neoconservatives, according to Politico.
At a fundraiser for ‘foreign policy professionals’ in July, prominent neoconservative Robert Kagan told attendees that “a majority of people in my circle will vote for Hillary.”
So far Darth Cheney still backs Trump.

Hillary will never get my vote.
Going to get melodramatic for a second.
Unless you have spent at least a week in a COB in Iraq, you have no idea what RECKLESS it. In some cases, it's following orders, because they're fucking stupid, and were made up by politicians who are doing what they think will win them a few more votes back home or a few more damn likes on twitter.
Reckless is starting a war you had no intention of winning, and then thinking that you know better than the people over there how the situation is on the ground.
Fuck Hillary, Fuck these Rethugs... and Fuck Everybody who ever thought these wars were a good idea as long as they made a buck off it.
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
Words have lost their meaning. Apparently if you know that
you are telling lies, it gives you greater moral status than a person like Trump who doesn't know - or care - about truth from fiction.
The SEP is looking less loony everyday.
"The justness of individual land right is not justifiable to those to whom the land by right of first claim collectively belonged"
Now that's what I call having a big tent.
It's a come-one-come-all million dollar bash. Even the enemy gets invited, as long as they promise not to shoot anybody until after the party.

Hillary is going for the "war candidate" position big time.
I don't see the logic in that at all.
Well, that's not quite right. From a political standpoint, it seems like a silly move. From a monetary view, it's quite logical. War is big business and business is good.
Life is strong. I'm weak, but Life is strong.
How could the business be anything but good?
I mean, we start the war... get the entire region inflamed with Islamist groups, civil war, religious war, and neighbor-against-neighbor, and then we sell them all the tanks and guns they can pay for. War in perpetuity. We are truly heading towards the end of the human race if something doesn't intervene soon, IMO.
This is GOOD news
for the MIC.
TOP with their head in the sand has said "lies,all lies." Now KfS has gone weird as well.Sigh.
There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know.
It's the end of politics!
Apparently, after many centuries of laborious trial and error, the leadership class has finally figured out The Right Way to Do Things. And happily, just about everyone is on board, except a few disgruntled "loosers" such as the Trumpistas, the BernieBros, the Magic Unicorn and Fairy Dust Greenies, and a few other miscellaneous malcontents. What a bright, prosperous and exciting future awaits us, now that discord, disagreement and dissension among the Serious People is officially a thing of the past!

Whenever you sense someone is trying to manipulate you
stating or implying, with an aggressive attitude, that you ought to feel shame or guilt for your political views — ignore them.
They may think they're smarter or more moral than you are, but they're not. Seriously, they can take a long walk off a short pier.
Everyone, follow your own head and heart.
