Peter Jennings just spent 5 minutes trying to tell me that, nono, it's ok that * lied to the American people because, hey, it's been done before!
He cited FDR and Yalta. You know...conferences that shaped future Europe.
Kinda important.
He also cited *'s pappy's secret meetings in 1986 with Jordan and Iraq to get them to buy US weapons to attack Iran.
So now * can just go ahead and mislead the American people about a PR stunt...what's next? Hmm? And the press corps went along with it.
At the very least it was an incredibly stupid idea to begin with.
But of course, we know it was just a PR stunt. We know he doesn't give a sh*t about the troops. He's done enough harm to them that his showing up is a slap in their face, not a nice way to thank them.
If he really cared about the troops, he'd give them medical supplies. If he really cared about the troops, he wouldn't have them paying for meals. If he really cared about the troops, he'd tell them when they could go home and see their families, who they wanna see way more than *. If he really cared about the troops, he wouldn't cut their pay. If he really cared about the troops, he'd actually spend more than 2.5 hours on the ground there- and it really says a lot, doesn't it?
Think about all the secrecy. The security. The lies.
But what happened to mission accomplished? And didn't * say they were "just a few thugs"? But yet these few thugs compelled the leader of the free world to use lies and total secrecy to make his PR visit as quick as he could possibly make it, all in the safe confines of the most heavily armed airport on the face of the planet.
It's truly awe-inspiring to witness the sheer lies and stupidity, isn't it?
But are we suprised?
