Not worried about torture just the pictures and renamed it enhanced interrogation

Not worried about molestation or sexual assault by tsa just renamed it enhanced
Same thing done on the street would get a person arrested

So this is every day operation for the DC crowd and only worried when caught

All these secrets are killing us and others

Financing the enemy through others so our corporations can make big profits

it sounds like it all sucks and will fill up many 24 hour news cycles for awhile

BUT no one will be prosecuted who did the deeds
They will go after those who exposed the deeds
EXCEPT those who outed a spy for their own profits

Sounds like business as usually no matter what

1. That's what I've been thinking since I watched Secy Clinton at her press conference today
She justified and even sanctified the things they did and said as practically holy. The criminal thing is that we were told about it.

4. And I don't think it's about petty embarrassments over tittle-tattle.
On that score, every national leader is probably saying, "Welcome to the real world. We talk behind each other's back. We employ diplomats to make nice. All of us."

5. Focusing on the release, rather than the content is an attempt to distract
and deflect.

See, they know how to use the bully-pulpit and the media when they are protecting their own interests. Notice how their frame is being established and repeated. If only they cared so much about the American People.

7. I am so sick of the phrase "American People" and
"(instert country, state, province here) Families" I'm ready to bitch slap the next person who uses them.

The reason your politicians get away with this s*** is that any real resistance to the dominant political mythology has been effectively silenced and/or marginalized. Your politicians aren't used to being relentlessly questioned or having to watch what they say and do.
