Are we now leading to Charles Darwin?

"Allegory of the Cave" applies more to touchie feelie, mares eat oats and does eat oats liberals than to Republicans, amigo.

You folks want to rule by emotions, feelings, safe spaces, feel good stuff.

Conservatives want to govern by reality, what makes sense, what actually works.

No. In a truly Darwinian world, most Liberals would be extinct.

I could be wrong, you know. After all, entoprocts have survived for millions of years. Do you know what an entoproct is? It is a primitive sort of plant/animal creature that basically consists of a mouth and an anus, and not much else.
Sounds like Democrats, except in a Demorat, the two working parts are interchangeable.
Come to think of it, that is evolution at work. Yep, explains how Liberals survive a Darwinian environment against all odds.
They evolved.
Sort of.

Twenty years after we left Vietnam, former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, who led the struggle for seven years, published a war memoir, titled: “In Retrospect”, in which he admitted that the war was “all wrong, terribly wrong”, and that he should have resigned.

Today, Vietnam is led by the same regime that our leaders believed was a major threat. That same regime is now one of our best friends on the Pacific rim and a strong trading partner.

In Vietnam, five American Presidents believed they were following the best course. But the American people were never convinced that the cost of the war in blood and treasury was commensurate with the threat posed by one of the poorest nations on earth. American citizens never understood exactly what their government was doing in Vietnam.

Before our nation goes to war, our leaders try to convince us that the war is necessary. There are reports of harm done or impending harm. Are the reports true or are they false? Was there really an attack at Tonkin Bay or was there just a blip on a radar scope? Did Iraq ever have an atomic bomb or did we go to war because their leader threatened to sell Iraq’s oil for European currency instead of our dollars? Did Syria really use poison gas or was it only fumes from burning fertilizer set off by a bomb dropped from an airplane?

We can’t be sure. We are assaulted on all sides by information that we cannot verify. We are asked to trust our leaders, all of whom have motives beyond our knowledge.

Get your news from all sides!

Continual illegal, unConstitutional, immoral warmongering by the US, supported by a TRILLION dollars of taxpayer money annually, is good for the military industrial corporations and their Wall street banksters. It has nothing to do with stopping any "threat" to the US. If it were really about the security of the US, troops would have long ago been put on the southern US border to stop the invasion of i******s.

Sorry Deb, all sides are liars. There is no trustworthy news source.
