Midnight Meme Of The Day!

>


by Noah

This is what we get when war criminals like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney aren't held accountable and thrown in the brig. Once they were allowed to walk free without so much as a trial, it was inevitable that a future president would come along and feel he or she had permission to push the envelope further. If draft-dodger Cadet Bone Spurs is now allowed to get away with pardoning three war criminals, at the behest of his advisers at FOX "News" no less, we can easily imagine what some future president will try. Meanwhile, it's easy to imagine, right now, who might be on Trump's "People To Pardon" list. Since the current administration views it as OK to have our men in uniform assassinate Muslims in foreign lands outside of the rules of engagement and without due process, how long before he pardons cops who murder here, or "very fine people" who deliberately run over protesters with their cars, or white supremacists who shoot black parishioners worshipping in their church? We already know that he's so inclined. Now that Trump has done what he did, there's no telling what he might authorize, tacitly or otherwise.

To bad we can't court-martial a president. After all, a president is the Commander-in-Chief. So, in a logical military justice system, Trump would be tried, found guilty and busted down to military latrine cleaner for the rest of his days. Here's your toothbrush Donnie. Get to it!

If Trump escapes justice (what am I saying??? WHEN Trump escapes Justice), be sure to thank the leading Congressional Democrats for dragging their feet and doing nothing for decades. It certainly was in progress when LBJ allowed Nixon to get away with treason, and it has yet to stop.

A point, 5:44, I've often made.

"This is what we get when war criminals like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney aren't held accountable and thrown in the brig. Once they were allowed to walk free without so much as a trial..."

A further refinement of that same point, one which I've also often made.

Remind me, anyone, which revered worthless feckless corrupt pos president and which corrupt feckless pos party was it that refused to hold cheney/bush accountable? Ditto for wall street after $21 trillion in fraud?

6:25, Congratulations for patting yourself on the back again. I also congratulate you for repeating what 5:44 said in nearly twice as many words.

Langston, 6:25 is also making points that Noah has made for years and in that context or in the context of today's post or not, the same sentiment is implied in the exact 2 sentences 6:25 quotes- at least. Maybe that's overridden by 6:25's daily need to say "Hey look at me" or maybe every single word or syllable needs to be spelled out to get his comprehension going. I wouldn't even be surprised if Noah left it hanging there in the air for us to see in order to bait him. I would but I'll give 6:25 credit for not saying "obamination" or "Pelosi." We all know he wanted to.

The mistake here is thinking Trump is a special case. War crimes are what the US government does, as attested by a list of US foreign interventions. In zero cases are those a response to existential threat. https://oldephartte.blogspot.com/p/law-and-failure-to-convict.html

From Iran's Mossadegh in 1953 to Evo Morales in Bolivia in 2019, the real "crime" the US hates the most is being told NO!

@8:56

This commenting system doesn't allow "upvotes", so here's me letting you know how much I enjoy your posts. Mr. Democraps is without doubt the smuggest douchebag on the internet.

I must wonder why it is that the obvious points that Noah (and Howie) keeps making and are discerned by 5:44 and even 8:56 seem to be lost on everyone who decides that being reminded of them is annoying.

Is this why this nation descended to such shithole status that trump could get elected?

It certainly is not because they all realize that the democraps are shit and won't ever make anything better. Noah, me, 5:44 and 8:56 (kind of) get it. Why can't anyone else, like Langston or the GFY guy?

Maybe the same psychologist that posted a scathing assessment of trump's defects could do one on what sorts of defects must be in play in those who insist (40 years and counting) on affirming their own inevitable destruction. The right support their own destruction because they are slaves of their own hate. What is it on the left?
