The Everpresent Doppelganger


Like a blast from the past, some shit never changes. Hey, wait -- maybe they're trying to get rid of everyone who ever knew Rumsfeld! Tenet, Reagan, Saddam...could this be a conspiracy? The caption on this reads:

"President Ronald Reagan, with his newly-named Middle East envoy, Donald Rumsfeld standing by, right, defends the use of U.S. troops in Grenada during a Nov. 3,1983 press briefing at the White House."

And tell me again -- why was the Middle East Envoy helping to defend the invasion of Grenada?

Morning After in America


Last night I saw three-time convicted felon Oliver North eulogize Ronald Reagan on Fox TV, explaining with a smile how Reagan had made the world a better place for his children, and how good the President had been to him as he and (five-time convicted felon) Admiral Poindexter were "reassigned" after the hearings, and later pardoned. And all the while ominous blurbs are creeping across the bottom of the screen, words like "Saudi" and "Gaza", "Hostages", "Mortar attack", and "Threat Advisory: Elevated".

How is this possible?
