It warms my soul to learn of Russian mercenaries being killed by US fire and steel.

 


U.S. forces killed scores of Russian mercenaries in Syria last week in what may be the deadliest clash between citizens of the former foes since the Cold War, according to one U.S. official and three Russians familiar with the matter.

More than 200 contract soldiers, mostly Russians fighting on behalf of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, died in a failed attack on a base held by U.S. and mainly Kurdish forces in the oil-rich Deir Ezzor region, two of the Russians said. The U.S. official put the death toll in the fighting at about 100, with 200 to 300 injured, but was unable to say how many were Russians.

I spend some of my free time thinking of fun ways to get back at Russia for what they've done.  Hacking their state TV and running a Putin concession speech after their next "election" would give me the chuckles, that's for sure.  Also, sending Putin a mail order bride, and out pops Sarah Palin, packin' heat and her whole clan of white trash?  She could finish ruining that country in a few months.

Good for her.  Unfortunately, we have a lot of little problems like this in the way our government is structured.  Consider the following from the U.S. Constitution:

 

*************************

Article 1, Section 6

The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States.6 They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.

 

*************************

 

In their role as lawmakers, politicians can lie to us, commit slander, etc., with no legal repercussions.  Yet, at the same time, when one of them was being confirmed for Attorney General, a sitting Senator couldn't talk about that person's record, because it was considered a personal attack.  How backward is that?  I get the need to maintain civility, though parliamentary democracies seem to do fine without it, but the notion that the politician can lie to the people but cannot have the truth told about their own actions is plain ridiculous.

Wouldn't it be interesting to see how Trump and the right would react if the military turned on them, publicly?  It can't happen, as it's basically insubordination.  I recall Obama had to fire someone in the military from a top post for making public comments.  I'd jsut like to see how quickly the "strong on national defense" party would turn on the armed forces for political gain.  Sure didn't take them long to turn on law enforcement.

Was reading an article about party demographic changes from 1997 to 2017.  Found this one humorous:

So, the country is getting smarter, and Democrats are getting smarter...but Republicans aren't.  Is this where the war on all those smarty pants elites stems?

Crazy shit....

 


All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach.

 

 

Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.

 

-Adolf Hitler

That's a little creepy.  I enjoyed them all doing the democracy line, but with different inflections.  Felt like I was casting the news and seeing too many bad auditions.
