Whitney Webb is the hardest working woman in the legally actionable conspiracy business. For more of the kind of confirmed misanthrope from policy makers in the Dulles camp and succeeding kings I trust her adherence to journalism standards. Counterpunch I tell people is the vetted news. As a news consumer I put this categorically senior wh house adviser in three boxes. Lunatic, for pitys sake, idealogue making up that he takes decent humans into his accounting, of course only a guess that if he was as rabid as Ms Clinton he would have been found out. And thirdly sociopath, we have to guesstimate that we who are willing to enact firebombings are corpses of their vital selves. If we cannot have a democracy including experiments in sortician all the way to the senate then we are the kind of Republic and not a democracy that Hillsdale college in MI is selling. Our representatives are born fresh every day so that if they wished to act out of another attitude than abject fear for tomorrow, they might exercise the power of the purse. I look at John Meersheimer who grins when he talks about megadeaths, and I forget that we have been told, actually that some people have innocent problems of affect like that. It is all I can see clearly that representatives whose goal was to survive a term in service with their goodwill toward man would not settle for the poor persuasions of the armaments lobby. I think.
