Rumsfeld Dead?

[RichardMZhlubb]

Yeah, along with Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. Try to be less of a hypocrite, okay?

Not a hypocrite. I specifically did not support Hillary, Biden (or Kerry in 2004) during the primaries in large part due to their support for the Iraq war.

And yet you ended up voting for them and supporting them anyway. Because at the end of the day, you place party over principle.

No, I voted for them in the general election because the alternative (Trump and Bush) was immeasurably worse.

The only way I will ever shut my mouth is if you kill me. So unless you plan on putting me the ground, you should probably stop wasting your time with such comments.

As for Rumsfeld, I know that he was corrupt, a liar, and an incompetent who helped push one of the most disastrous wars in history. For whatever reason, you refuse to admit the obvious truth about the second Iraq war, despite the fact that Trump, the guy you supported for president, repeatedly called it out for what it was during his presidential campaign. And I don't recall you telling Trump to keep his mouth shut when he said Bush II lied the country into a war.

Like I said... You don't know anything.

[Cletus]

I'm sure it had an even more devastating impact on the innocent civilians whose lives were ruined by the wholesale destruction of their civilization.

It's called war.

[Ethereal]

It's called war.

Yeah, and as Major General Smedley Butler once said, war is a racket.

[The Booman]

Haliburton would agree.

Haliburton would agree.

Along with Raytheon, General Dynamics, Boeing, Northrup Grumman, Lockheed-Martin, L3, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and on and on and on and on and on... we're spending trillions of dollars on this empire and getting nothing in return except justified hatred towards America and dead young men. I cannot fucking comprehend how Americans allow this to continue. It's blatant, in-your-face corruption and war-profiteering, exactly what our founders warned us against. It's sickening.

They're mostly not aware of it because they are busy being bombarded with systemic racism, existential climate threats, and now viking inspired civil war.

Donald Henry Rumsfeld was laid to rest today with full honors at Arlington National Cemetery.
