Well, the primary election has completed here in Florida last night, and as suspected, every progressive candidate in the state that was challenging the Corpocratic Party incumbents were soundly defeated.
This makes my #DemExit now completely justified (as if it wasn't before).

The refusal by San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick to stand for the Star Spangled Banner and the resulting scandal has got me thinking.

That was President Barack Obama at a joint press conference with French President Francois Hollande back in November of 2015. If that didn't ring a bell, it should have. The claim that "Saddam gassed the Kurds" was one of the propaganda points that the Bush team hammered repeatedly in 2002 during the run-up to the Iraq war. US Senator Hillary Clinton made the same claim during her speech supporting the AUMF on October 10, 2002. If it seems like the Neocons in both political parties are using the same playbook, it's because they are.
