“If the Obomination goes to Congress and asks for declaration of war on Iran, he would get it. That would mean the Democrats keep control of Congress.”

The only war the Left wants is a domestic war. It is really amazing that a person as batshit crazy as Keith Olberman actually has a mainstream news show. the man is as crazy as an outhouse rat. Dan Rather might have been just as nuts but at least he was vaguely aware that his private Moriarty’s were not actually visible to the rest of the world and might bear some relationship to his meds. these are indeed strange times.

when you look around the globe at the number of failed states – Mexico, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Yugoslavia, Lebanon, Venezuela you quickly realize there is very little difference between them and Chicago. The corruption, violence, and general lawlessness and the economic breakdown and disparities are really very similar. how far is California from turning into Mexico or judging from the kleptocrats in Bell from turning into A total kleptocracy? the government there is broke, a huge hunk of the population is illegals, the middle classes are emigrating to other states. it is already failed state. It just hasn’t registered yet.
