Russiagate was a farce, but it pales in comparison to the lies told to get us going into Iraq, both in human suffering, money wasted and eventual real harm done to our long term national interests.

Just remember Bush parading a supposedly comical video of him looking for WMD's in the Oval Office before an appreciate WH correspondents' dinner crowd in 2003, when US war dead were nearing 500, Iraqi dead far more and that supposed reason for the invasion had been proven false.

For sheer craven inhumanity and don't give a fuck, US elites and the media that covers them, are unbeatable.

The emperor has no clothes and those that cover him go to the same clothier.

For every fake wokist flying the Ukrainian flag, I am asking - where are the flags of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen and dozens and dozens of others?

Obama had an answer for that; the same one he had for not charging Bush with war crimes. All that is in the past and we now have to look forward. Of course, that principle remarkably disappeared when Manning, Snowden or Assange were the subject.

Never thought I'd hate anyone like I did Bush, but Oshama came as close as it's possible to do so.

No wonder Michelle loves W so much.

I realized Obomber is a sellout or a complete fake when he voted to give the telcos immunity in the summer of 2008.

When someone is first elected to the Senate, they are assigned a fellow existing Senator as a mentor.

Oshama's was Joe Lieberman.

Any questions?

If you were as dialed in to the American political scene as you often claim to be you would observe that Obama's "sellout" date was in 1997 when he first ran for the Illinois State Senate. And Obama is not and has never been a fake. Like P.T. Barnum before him and Donald Trump after him, he knew precisely what he was selling and exactly what you were buying.

I definitely wasn't following Obama in '97 :)

Maybe 'fake' is not the most precise word do describe Obama the man. What he sold to the people was fake and it's hard to fault the people for craving all that hope and change..

I think she’s embarrassed by him & his seeming descent into his own dementia
