    War Pigs

    As bad as this situation is - and it is bad when war profiteering propagandists are presented as independent analysts - my suspicion is that it pales in comparison to the profiteering that's been carried out, and is being carried out today, by the war pigs in The House of Representatives, The Senate, The Administration (outgoing and incoming) and The Federal Judiciary.

    I'd like to know just how much wealth our political overlords have generated for themselves and each other by creating, implementing and upholding the horrific policies which, by design, result in the death, carnage and displacement of millions of human beings, including more than a few Americans.

    Something tells me an answer will not be forthcoming.
