As a thought experiment, can anyone think of one single time since the creation of the CIA, when our government has been straight up honest, and hasn’t been a scheming, backstabbing, untrustworthy entity pursuing goals that are an anathema to a free and honorable nation?

Yeah it’s crap because the swamp creatures in the political establishment are as pure as the wind driven snow, they never lie or engage in trickery or evil. They are exceptional and no one should ever question them or their motives.

Do I need the “/mega S” ?

He had plenty of cojones to drone American citizens, to launch the IRS, NSA, and FBI on his enemies.

Granted, the stones are undoubtedly too tiny for a fair fight, but after all, isn't he famous for "bring a gun to a knife fight?"

I agree...Obama may be a complete lefty muzzie @$$, but I don't believe for a second he'd order a chemical attack in an effort to bring down Assad. Poppy cock

Without evidence from Qatar on who approved it this is all garbage.
