RSN: Huge Coal Company Misled Investors on Climate Change Risk, According to Investigation, Global Domination Not Going Well

You sacrificed your future and that of your children by supporting Failed Republican Policies and the Neo Con Chicken Hawk Military-Industrial-Complex, the Dirty Energy Koch Brothers and their ilk. 

Daily Kos

This says it all.

Thanks to The Middle Class is Drowning for the graphic.

Failed Republican policies have destabilized nations, killed innocents, bombed nations to rubble, created refugees crises, created resource wars and created terrorists.

Republicans have slashed regulations, regulatory and oversight budgets, destroyed the environment, denied Americans health care, destroyed public education, destroyed the Postal Service, increased poverty, hunger and homelessness, denied climate change....and much else. 

Why would a sane person continue to support Anti-American policies?

all it the War on Terror, an ISIS Caliphate, defense of Islam or a battle for freedom. The bullets are flying and people everywhere are dying from global colonialist domination.

The West and China are everywhere, their fingers in everything of monetary value. Those who resist are assigned the same label the Romans gave to those who took up arms against their empire, “terrorist.”

ISIS will fail. Brutality cannot defeat injustice. ISIS will paint this as a great victory. In fact, gunning down unarmed civilians is only a sign of impotence and desperation.

For decades the U.S. has waged the most inept and corrupt wars of domination and greed imaginable to the extent that they would not have been imaginable had the atrocities not actually been committed.

We are chasing ghosts in Mesopotamia, ghosts of men and civilizations we have defiled and slaughtered for decades. That does not justify what happened in Paris. It is however an indictment of war for profit.

We must respond with wisdom and determination. Not blind aggression and profiteering. The “New American Century” is over, really before it began.

Do not arm good guys. Do not allow profit to be a defense strategy. If we had stayed out of Iraq, ISIS would never have risen. It’s a lot easier for ISIS to defeat themselves than it will be for the West to defeat them, by orders of magnitude. Get the idiots away from the command center.

There is no substitute for rational thought.
