THIS JUST IN! THE PUNCHLINE IS BOB CASEY JR.!

BULLY BOY PRESS &    CEDRIC'S BIG MIX   -- THE KOOL AID TABLE

HOW BAD WAS HILLARY CLINTON AS A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE?

SO BAD THAT ANTI-ABORTION BOB CASEY JR. IS CONSIDERING RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN 2020.

SO BAD THAT BLAND AND BORING BOB CASEY JR. IS CONSIDERING RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN 2020.

SO BAD THAT BOB CASEY JR. -- WHOSE OWN 4 CHILDREN FIND HIM FORGETTABLE -- IS CONSIDERING RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT IN 2020.

JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU GRASP HOW BAD A CANDIDATE HILLARY WAS, YOU REALIZE YET AGAIN THAT YOU DON'T KNOW THE HALF OF IT.



FROM THE TCI WIRE:


Let's start with this.


“It should not be the job of America to replace regimes around the world. This is what President Trump recognized in Iraq, that it was the biggest foreign policy disaster of the last several decades, and he’s right...The generals still don’t get the mistake.”

      You mean THIS Rand Paul?  The one who hand-carried a letter from you to Putin in August?  🤔

      Apparently you have a lot in common. You both think you know more than generals.




You mean THIS Sally Deal?  The piece of crap piece of trash who doesn't understand how it works?

Throw in the other piece of trash -- though there's a lot of them, I mean Ben




Draft-dodging reality TV show star who thinks he knows military strategy better than his Secretary of Defense who served in the Persian Gulf War, Afghanistan, and Iraq, has driven away his most qualified cabinet member. Thank you for your many years of service, General Mattis.

Love the necklace, sir, it screams "trash."

Reality for Ben and Sally idiot, Donald Trump does know more than the military.  Barack did too.  Every president does because we live in a democracy and not a military junta.

The  military is not there to provide solutions.  It is there to be tasked with a duty or a command and to follow it.

Do you pieces of trash understand that?

Depending on who the president is --what political party -- trash like you try to hide behind the military and wrap yourselves in the flag.  You don't what the hell you're talking about because you are sorely lacking in the basic education you should have received.

In a democracy, you have civilian control over the military.  The Congress will provide oversight.  The president will provide orders.

The military will be tasked with executing those orders.

Their opinions?  Not really that damn important.

Sorry if that offends your delicate -- and uninformed -- sensibilities.

Civilian control over the military.  And the military does what they are commanded to do.  Try grasping that reality or, if you prefer, move to some country that has a junta and enjoy yourselves there.  Until then, grasp that living in a democracy means you can say anything but being in the public square probably means you shouldn't -- especially when every remark you make only underscores just how deeply stupid you are.

THIS JUST IN! LINDSEY GRAHAM'S NIGHT CANDY!

BULLY BOY PRESS &    CEDRIC'S BIG MIX   -- THE KOOL AID TABLE

SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM HAS DECLARED THAT IT IS "A STAIN ON THE NATION" -- IT BEING DONALD TRUMP'S DECISION TO WITHDRAW U.S. TROOPS FROM SYRIA AND NOT THE BODY PILLOW THAT LINDSEY GRAHAM TIRES HIMSELF OUT ON EACH NIGHT.

THE STAIN ON HIS BODY PILLOW -- FROM 'NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS' -- LINDSEY EXPLAINED WAS "NIGHT CANDY" AND "VERY TASTY."

"TO CALL IT A STAIN," LINDSEY INSIST, "IS NOT TRUE.  AND I WILL OFFER A LICK OF MY NIGHT CANDY TO ANYONE WHO DOUBTS ME."

FROM THE TCI WIRE:

As the fake news continues, the US is establishing more bases in Iraq -- and the fake news ensures that US media ignores this reality.  XINHUA reports what THE NEW YORK TIMES, CNN, THE WASHINGTON POST, NPR, et al won't:


 The U.S. forces established a new military base inside Iraq near the border with neighboring Syria in the western province of Anbar, a local newspaper reported on Wednesday.
"The U.S. troops built the military base in al-Maliha area near the town of al-Qaim, some 400 km west of the Iraqi capital Baghdad," the independent newspaper of al-Mashriq quoted the town's mayor, Ahmed al-Mahalawi, as saying.
According to the mayor, this is the second military base established in Rummanah area near al-Qaim. Another base was set up in earlier December.
"The new base is to the borderline with Syria, apparently aimed at monitoring the border to protect the U.S. forces deployed inside Syria near the Iraqi-Syrian border," al-Mahalawi added.

The newspaper also quoted Frahan al-Dulaimi, member of Anbar provincial council, as saying that the U.S. forces "did not inform the provincial authorities about the military bases."


That news seems a lot more important than Stormy Daniels or all the other b.s. topics that have taken up so-called 'news' space.  This is real, this is life and death, this is war.  Where's the coverage?


The US intends to stay in Iraq and this despite the fact that it's been one failure after another in terms of prime ministers.  A bunch of incompetents who have failed the Iraqi people.  Of course, the US government doesn't care about that.  It just wants the oil.  But these puppets the US keeps putting into power can't even get the oil and gas laws passed -- the ones the US government has been insisting on since 2004.

    THIS JUST IN! MICHAEL CHE TICKLES HIS HOMOPHOBE BONE!


     
    BULLY BOY PRESS &    CEDRIC'S BIG MIX   -- THE KOOL AID TABLE


    TELEVISED STOOGE MICHAEL CHE CONTINUED TO WEIGH SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE DOWN AS, LAST NIGHT, HE CAME TO THE DEFENSE OF COMEDIAN AND ACTOR KEVIN HART BY NOTING THAT OTHER COMEDIANS HAD USED HOMOPHOBIC SLURS.

    WOW.  SHOCKER.  OTHERS HAVE SAID HOMOPHOBIC THINGS.  WE ARE SURPRISED.

    BUT THEIR HOMOPHOBIA WAS TARGETED AT ADULTS -- KEVIN HART ADVOCATED BEATING CHILDREN IF YOU SUSPECTED THEY WERE GAY.  THAT'S A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE.

    REACHED FOR COMMENT, CHE INSISTED, "I'M JUST A STUPID DOUCHE AND I'VE RUNIED WEEKEND UPDATE.  MY MOTHER THINKS I'M FUNNY -- EVEN IF NO ONE ELSE DOES.  JUST A FEW DAYS AGO, USA TODAY CALLED FOR ME AND COLIN TO BE REPLACED AS WEEKEND UPDATE ANCHORS.  CAN'T A GUY EMBRACE HOMOPHOBIA AND BE UNFUNNY AND STILL STAY ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE?  WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?  OOPS, I S**T MY DRAWERS AGAIN.  HA HA THAT'S FUNNY, RIGHT?  I'M STILL FUNNY.  I'M STILL RELEVANT.  I BOMBED AT THE EMMYS AND I BOMB ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE BUT I THINK I'M FUNNY.  S**T MY PANTS, I'M LAUGHING BECAUSE IT'S FUNNY AND BECAUSE I DID IT."



    FROM THE TCI WIRE:




    We've frequently covered the use of Depleted Uranium in Iraq under Bully Boy Bush.  Let's note this from Barbara Koepel (WASHINGTON SPECTATOR) about Poppy Bush:

    The weapons were first used in 1991 during Desert Storm, when the U.S. military fired guided bombs and missiles containing depleted uranium (DU), a waste product from nuclear reactors. The Department of Defense (DOD) particularly prized them because, with dramatic density, speed, and heat, they blasted through tanks and bunkers.
    Within one or two years, grotesque birth defects spiraled—such as babies with two heads. Or missing eyes, hands, and legs. Or stomachs and brains inside out.
    Keith Baverstock, who headed the radiological section of the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Center of Environment and Health in the 1990s, explained why: When uranium weapons explode, their massive blasts produce gray or black clouds of uranium oxide dust particles. These float for miles, people breathe them, and the dust lodges in their lungs. From there, they seep into the lymph system and blood, flow throughout the body, and bind to the genes and chromosomes, causing them to mutate. First, they trigger birth defects. Within five or more years, cancer. Organs, often the kidneys, fail.
    At one Basra hospital, leukemia cases in children up to age 14 doubled from 1992 to 1999, says Amy Hagopian, a University of Washington School of Public Health professor. Birth defects also surged, from 37 in 1990 to 254 in 2001, according to a 2005 article in Environmental Health.
    Leukemia—cancer of the blood—develops quickly. Chris Busby, a British chemical physicist, explains: “Blood cells are the most easily damaged by radiation and duplicate rapidly. We’ve known this since Hiroshima.”
    Dai Williams, an independent weapons researcher in Britain, says the dust emits alpha radiation—20 times more damaging than the gamma radiation from nuclear weapons. The military insists the dust is harmless because it can’t penetrate the skin. They ignore that it can be inhaled.

    Father and son ensured that birth defects and they both should have been held accountable.  Poppy Bush is dead so we can consider that both a win and a blessing.  But Bully Boy Bush is alive and he should be held accountable.  He paints cute pictures!  Michelle Obama loves him!  He paints hollow bulls**t that will never pass for art and Michelle Obama was greedy and corrupt long before she became First Lady so find a better testimonial for him.

    While I'm grateful that one less War Criminal walks the earth, that gratitude does not -- and should not -- translate into silence.  Lie after lie has been broadcast non-stop for six or so days now to sell the notion that Poppy Bush was some kind of wonderful.


    Bruce A. Dixon (BLACK AGENDA REPORT) points out:

    George HW Bush was a one term president who committed committed the usual quota of domestic and foreign atrocities. He put the bloodthirsty Dick Cheney, who’d been Gerald Ford’s chief of staff in charge at the Pentagon, and named Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court. He invaded Panama, where US forces commanded by Colin Powell obliterated an entire black neighborhood killing tens of thousands of civilians to prevent inconvenient protests against the occupation. Jimmy Carter had negotiated US bases in Saudi Arabia, and Bush filled them with hundreds of thousands of troops, artillery, armor and aircraft for a planned invasion of Iraq.
    Millions of Iraqis have died since the Bush invasion, millions more have become refugees. Hardly a week has passed from then till now the the US hasn’t bombed some place in that unhappy country. One of Bush’s last acts as a lame duck president in December 1992 was to land a contingent of US Marines in Somalia to keep that country from forming a unified government that might not be to Uncle Sam’s liking. A quarter century later US forces are still in Somalia, backing this or that warlord faction, or the Somali central government whose reach most days doesn’t extend past the capital’s suburbs, sometimes with Rwandan or Ugandan proxies, sometimes with US paid mercenaries, complimented with US special ops forces and drones.

    THIS JUST IN! THE PUNCHLINE IS JOY REID!

    BULLY BOY PRESS &    CEDRIC'S BIG MIX   -- THE KOOL AID TABLE


    MSNBC COMEDIAN JOY REID DECLARED ON HER SHOW SUNDAY THAT A PRESIDENTIAL TICKET OF OPRAH WINFREY AND MICHELLE OBAMA COULD NOT WIN BECAUSE OF RACISM.

    THESE REPORTERS MANAGED TO REACH REID BY PHONE OUTSIDE A CHINESE BUFFET.  SHE INSISTED SHE ONLY HAD A FEW MOMENTS TO SPEAK BECAUSE SHE HAD TO GET INTO THE BUFFET -- 16 DIFFERENT NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES HAD TOLD HER THAT WHOMEVER CHANGED HER  BLOG POSTS TO MAKE HER APPEAR HOMOPHOBIC WAS IN THE BUFFET -- NEXT TO THE SPRING ROLLS OR POSSIBLY THE SESAME CHICKEN.

    JOY EXPLAINED SHE DID NOT RAISE THE ISSUE OF LACK OF EXPERIENCE AND NEITHER WOMAN EVER HAVING HELD ELECTED OFFICE BECAUSE IT "DOESN'T MATTER.  AMERICA WILL NEVER ELECT A PERSON OF COLOR PRESIDENT."

    BARACK OBAMA?

    "OH SURE," JOY SAID IN AN IRRITATE TONE, "THEY'LL DO IT FOR ONE TERM BUT THAT'S IT."

    BUT BARACK OBAMA WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT TWICE.

    "ONCE, TWICE, HEY, ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP ME ON THE PHONE ALL NIGHT?  I'M HUNGRY!  I MEAN, I'VE GOT TO CATCH THE BAD PERSON WHO WAS CHANGING ALL MY ONLINE POSTS!"



    FROM THE TCI WIRE:



    Still no full Cabinet.

    All this time later.


    May 12th, Iraq held national elections.  Ahead of the elections, there had been big hopes -- these hopes included a large turnout.   Ali Jawad (ANADOLU AGENCY) noted, "A total of 24 million Iraqis are eligible to cast their ballots to elect members of parliament, who will in turn elect the Iraqi president and prime minister."  RUDAW added, "Around 7,000 candidates have registered to stand in the May 12 poll, with 329 parliamentary seats up for grabs."  AFP explained that the nearly 7,000 candidates includes 2014 women.  THE SIASAT DAILY added, of the nearly 7,000 candidates, "According to the electoral commission, only 20 percent of the candidates are newcomers." Ali Abdul-Hassan and Sinan Salaheddin (AP) reported, "Iraqi women account for 57 percent of Iraq’s population of over 37 million, according to the U.N. Development Program, and despite government efforts to address gender inequality, the situation for Iraqi women has declined steadily since 2003.  According to the UNDP, one in every 10 Iraqi households is headed by a widow. In recent years, Iraqi women suffered further economic, social and political marginalization due to decades of wars, conflict, violence and sanctions." 


    Six months and counting and no full Cabinet.


    And among the posts not filled?  Minister of Defense and Minister of Interior.

    Hopefully, most grasp the importance of Ministry of Defense.  Most countries have some form of a Defense Department.

    But Minister of the Interior?

    In the US, Ryan Zinke is the Secretary of the Interior and he's responsible for the conservation and management of land and resources.  An important job, no question.  But that's not Iraq's Ministery of the Interior.

    In Iraq, the Minister of the Interior is a security post.  It is equal to the Minister of the Defense.  The Minister of the Interior is, for example, over the federal police, over securing the borders, etc.  Iraq is a country at war.  Don't they need a Minister of the Interior?  Don't they need a Minister of Defense?

    And the election was six months ago.  When are they going to get around to naming Vice Presidents?

    The election was over six months ago.  What's the hold up there?

    It's real easy to pretend that this isn't 2010 and it hasn't taken over eight months to form a government.  But that's not really honest.

    A partial cabinet is not a cabinet.  There are 22 slots and only 14 have been filled.  That's eight vacancies.  Then there are the posts of vice president (Iraq has three) and they're empty.

    Why is anyone pretending that this is (a) normal or (b) a functioning government.

    As we have repeatedly noted since 2006, no prime minister-designate has ever followed the Constitution.  Per the Constitution, Parliament names a President who then names a prime minister-designate.  That part's followed.  That's all that's followed.

    Per the Constitution, after being named prime minister-designate, the prime minister then has 30 days to form a Cabinet.  If the Cabinet is formed, the person moves from prime minister-designate to prime minister.  If not?  The President names someone new prime minister designate. (Due to the wording, a president could probably get away with naming the same person for another 30 days as prime minister-designate.)

    That's the only thing you have to do in order to move from prime minister-designate to prime minister: Form a Cabinet.  It's important because it demonstrate that you can lead.  None of Iraq's past prime ministers -- Nouri al-Maliki twice and Hayder al-Abadi once -- managed to form a Cabinet but were moved from prime minister-designate to prime minister.  And they were failures as leaders -- abject failures.
