One
Liners
Plan
B:
Saudi
Arabia says
it will diversify its economy away from dependence on petroleum.
There must be more profit in exporting jihad terrorism than anyone
suspected.
Privilege:
Great Britain has ruled that Members of Parliament do not have to
release their tax returns and are not subject to anti-money
laundering laws, because the Prime Minister...
Punishment:
Missouri is spending millions to keep Planned Parenthood from
receiving federal funding for fear that someone, somewhere, might get
an abortion. Someone poor.
Compassion:
David Cameron's conservatives have refused to accept 3,000
unaccompanied refugee children stranded in camps in Europe into the
country. But they
will continue to ship arms to Saudi Arabia, which has earned them
£2.8billion since the destruction of Yemen began.
Better
Than The F-35:
According to the Marines, 70% of their F/A-18 jets can't fly.
Fair
And Balanced:
On 9/11 Saudi terrorists killed 3,000 Americans. Since then the US
has killed over 1.3 million civilians in Iraq, Afghanistan and
Pakistan.
Credit
Where Credit Is Due:
Nebraska has abolished civil forfeiture, the appalling process that
lets the cops steal your money, house and car for no reason
whatsoever. Good on them.
Auction:
Charles Koch says that Trump and Cruz are terrible role models and
he will not support their run for the presidency. Plus he doesn't
own them. He notes that Hillary, based on her long-standing
relationship with Wall Street, would be a better president
because she stays bought.
The
Line Forms On The Right:
A Federal
judge has
ruled that former detainees tortured by the CIA can sue the
government.
Pyrrhic
Victory:
Belatedly,
the US has become the 175th
nation
to sign the totally worthless Paris climate agreement.
Unclear
On The Concept:
Donald Trump Jr.
complains that Ted
Cruz is bribing
delegates to win the nomination. How did he think it was done?

So happy you are back. Hope your wife feels similarly.
Virtuous Cycle: Money to maintain the F/A-18 was re-directed to flying piece of crap F-35, thus insuring no way to back out/bridge over a failing project.
Pyrolitic Victory: Burn, baby, burn. Last Friday one of the smarmy fellows who robbed Solara and now make his living telling everyone how the future's getting better with solar was cheering a treaty signed between the US and China where all the research/patents on "clean" energy get shared. This sounds good until one realizes that (a) Obama considered fracking, off-shore/arctic drilling as clean energy, (b) China produces very little original research, and what it does publish is later found to be based on falsified data, (c) the CCP isn't going to share anything, it just takes. So, who's the real beneficiary of this "patent sharing agreement?" Not the US tax payer, but rather the corporations that want to off-shore every possible job they can.
