Be Nice or Finish More Quickly
We can take 25 days to finish the May fundraiser or we can easily finish in 15. We find that when we are cordial things take longer. When we turn up the heat, and take the heat we can end it more quickly.
Let’s bite the bullet and get this thing over.

Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch
Engelhardt writes: "In a Washington that seems incapable of doing anything but worshiping at the temple of the U.S. military, global policymaking has become a remarkably mindless military-first process of repetition.
