Again, an essay that I will need to reread to extract the useful information. A sort of , “ I’m going to tell you what I will tell you”, then, “ I’ve telling you what I want to tell you”, followed by, “ this is what I’ve just told you”. Still the best way to get one’s readers to understand.

As I’ve noted before, Bush, jr, was cajoled, beat down, locked in a room, overwhelmed, by Cheney. It was obvious Bush didn’t have the critical thinking skills and relied on Cheney’s people and analysis. But it was obvious at the end that Bush felt betrayed. They were not speaking and I even think the outing of a CIA agent by Cheney’s staffer, set the stage. The staffer went to jail and the intelligence used by Cheney to support the Iraqi invasion collapsed under the deception and made up falsehoods. Bush jr can reflect and underneath the frat bro is a man who can realize his mistakes ( although does not make them forgivable). We won’t get anywhere hung like this again from the GOP as anyone w any scruples or ethics or humanity will not make the cut in the next administration unless Biden wins. I’m f you remember, after Obama’s re-election the GOP put out a paper that reflected on how out of touch the party is with the many different minorities and subcultures in the US and to win future elections they needed to be more inclusive. And then they ignored that and went reactionary.

It really made my day that the Libertarians rejected trump. Bringing a fascist to a “ no government is the best government “ political party, is not exactly a smart move.
