“They hate us for our proximity, because we are there, in their land, if it helps you conservatives think of it this way, you don’t like Mexicans in your country and all they want to do is mow your lawn.” Bill Maher on don’t BE in the Middle East.
Hold on there Bill, you know better than to ask conservatives to see anything for another point of view. That is called EMPATHY, a genetic disposition Republicans are born without. It is why they are Republicans.
If you doubt that, try this on the next Republican you meet. Ask what they would do if the cops arrested them for no reason, if the cops shot down their unarmed child, if Iranians dropped drones on the Tea Party, if a Muslim sniper killed 264 NRA members having coffee, if their son or daughter was gay or transgender, if the unemployment rate for white people was 30%, if they were brought up in a dumpster and so on. If we could get past the variations of one bootstrap speech or another, one thing is sure, it wouldn’t be water bottles flying through the air.
Bill Maher plays Romper Room with Don’t Bee George W. Bush who after 911 allowed us to be baited into a war with the wrong country while the Do Bee Barack Obama found and killed the man responsible. A war that wasted more American lives than 911, cost us a few trillion dollars for nothing, and made everything in the Middle East worse.
Old news you say? Hardly, ISIS is now throwing us heads as the same bait which we are taking once again, and if any of the GOP candidates were to beat Hillary Clinton you can be sure we would do it all over again. We are a war nation. We are a gun nation. We are a the most violent Christian nation on Earth.
