Gary >The US now having a lack of leadership, has a guy who wants to be a leader of lackey's.
IMO, the boot is on the other foot. It is the lackeys, as you call them, especially the "chickenhawks", who are calling the shots. The leader does as they tell him. They call that "consensus" but what consensus is it when everyone around him is telling him to go to war!
>That O'Reilly sounds scary.
Actually, when I was able to see him (Fox News is not often broadcast in SA) I found him amusing. He is gung-ho, right wing, fascist and reminded me of the government we used to have here. Of course, one must not forget that Fox is owned by Rupert Murdoch who is, himself, right-wing and O'Reilly is playing to his boss and his audience. The people who listen want to hear that stuff. In fact, the more the better.
>better not say too much or the CIA will be knocking on my door
Who knows? Anything could happen. I can assure you that I scrap many things I wanted to say for fear of upsetting too many Americans on the forum. Of course, I know that anything I say will upset certain people.
>words popping into mind now are, Gestapo, Kent State and more
Amazing, isn't it, how in a few years the US has lost the "democratic" veneer it once had. |
