Here, Piggy, Piggy!

Here, Piggy, Piggy!


Press Secretary Leavitt's comments defending Trump's "piggy" comments as part of his "frank, honest, and transparent" personality reminds me of a post I wrote ten years ago about a drubbing I took - also televised for the world to see - at the hands of a politician. "I twisted in the breeze. There's nothing worse than sitting there, telegraphing to the world that you're full of shit. Except for knowing it."  ON ARROGANCE

Of course, I knew I was full of shit. Leavitt, (if I were honest, frank, and transparent, here, I would describe her in a most un-PC way), on the other hand, portends to own the ridiculous crap she says. She is a political geek who daily performs for the cheap seats, biting off the head of credulity for whatever attack on decorum Clownie, the circus ringmaster, has served up. I would pity her if she wasn't so shamelessly a proactive part of the Pickles Posse.

This is Murder. Period.

 Murder. Period.

In early September I wrote this piece about the bombings of vessels in international waters from the perspective of a criminal defense lawyer that handles many cases dealing with something called the MDLEA. 

I haven't changed my opinion that this is criminal behavior. But, now, the problem has metastasized, with talks of mutiny and respondent retribution somehow on the table.

The administration has switched the way we did things.

Yes, the problem is a serious one. But why change what has yielded some fairly good bragging rights?

That these are extra judicial killings based on bogus rationales is no stretch. 

BS

IT'S JUST NOT LEGAL!

No longer a criminal justice process, it is now one based on a war fantasy. They have eliminated the hard work of due process, of proving their case, of committing no further harm, and are imposing capital punishment without the necessity of legislation authorizing it. 

As it relates to a war powers act, they have circumvented those folks too.

And, this just the latest in the process causing unnecessary internal conflicts in our military
