Weird, but fascinating

I’d like to ask John Kerry when he decided to put away his torn blue jeans, his faded military jacket, the peace sign necklace and beads and stop pretending to be the benevolent hippy he claimed to be when he was young. And I would like to ask that because that young, seemingly idealistic John Kerry would have no clue who is the botoxed, face lifted, designer clothing wearing member of the establishment he became. A cynic might ask would he?

You can tell they are frauds just through the last ten years of history. If George W. Bush was inclined to take out Saddam Hussein over very obvious national security risks, these aging hipsters lost their minds. Bashar al Assad poses no security threat to the United States and is, in fact, holding down the truly dangerous Islamists in his own country – and these same peacenik hipsters suddenly sound trumpets like Teddy Roosevelt’s Rough Riders. One would think, if one was truly a peaceful person and believed all of the tired clichés like “Make Love Not War” and the fatigued chants like “Hey Hey LBJ how many kids have you killed today”, that they’d be consistently against war. Apparently they are not. And people wonder why the word phony gets tossed at them.

I also hate to break it to aging hipster John Kerry, but Bashar al Assad is keeping the lid on the real enemy here and that’s the Islamists. Apparently, a secular Pan Arab nationalist like Assad is awful but an Allahu Ackbar screaming nut throwing grenades into a Syrian Christian church is an ally to the former “Flower Children”. Fascinating. Weird, but fascinating.
