Boneheaded Democrats Trying to Launch A New Cold War-Via Ring Of Fire
Sen. Joseph McCarthy and Barry Goldwater live on in the American psyche.
Next stop World War III.
Hillary and the Democrats it appears since Hillary's alt-right rant have become as unhinged and dangerous as Trump and the Republicans.
Both parties are run by paranoid egomaniacs who keep threatening either total war or expelling millions or locking up millions it is just wacko time in America just two months from a general election. Democrats and Hillary say ignore the contents of hacked EMails and just blame Russia and Putin. So it is a new form of McCarthyism .
Hillary wants to target countries and individuals involved in Cyber attacks as if this were the same as a terrorist attack ala 9/11. But neoliberals have been trying to blame Russia for years for the crisis in Georgia, Crimea, Ukraine Syria and elsewhere.
So will they next blame Russia for 9/11 ?
Americans unfortunately suffer from Amnesia and memory loss so they forget what happened a few months ago so they forget that McCarthyism was a bad thing. For instance Kissinger and Nixon were convinced the anti-war movement and the Civil Rights Movement were just Soviet Union front organizations.
Reagan in the 1980s claimed the anti-nuclear weapons movement was funded primarily by the Russians. The Bush administration held to a similar position in their dismissive attitude towards the anti-Iraq war protesters claiming they were stooges of the Russians or Chinese
As for Hillary Clinton she began in politics by supporting an anti-Communist pro-Nuke anti-civil rights character in the name of Barry Goldwater so my own belief is that she has come full circle . Barry Goldwater infamously said:
" Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice"
Goldwater claimed he would be willing to use nuclear weapons in Vietnam or elsewhere which Hillary has also indicated she would use Nukes on Iran or Syria, or Russia etc.
From Ring of Fire via Youtube Ed Schultz and Mike Papantonio on Dems and Hillary launching a new cold war:
"Published on 2 Sep 2016 With the FBI revealing that hackers have targeted voter registration systems in Arizona and Illinois, as well as a new document dump that ‘Guccifer 2.0’ says he hacked from computers of congressional Democrats, party leaders are blaming Russia and trying to tie their critics and rivals to Moscow.
Ring of Fire Radio host Mike Papantonio joins ‘News with Ed’ to discuss whether the Democratic Party has turned Russia into its monster under the bed. Spread the word!

The Campaign to Blame Putin for Everything - Antiwar.com Original by -- Antiwar.com
The Campaign to Blame Putin for Everything - Antiwar.com Original by -- Antiwar.com: Hardly a day goes by without some “news” about the Russian “threat,” and in the past twenty-four hours the hate-on-Russia campaign seems to have picked up speed. After learning from Hillary Clinton that Vladimir Putin is not only responsible for the Trump campaign, but also for the “global nationalist movement” that yanked the British out …
and here are some important points from the article but you should read the article in its entirety at Anti-War.com :
So the same company paid by the Democratic National Committee to echo the party line on the DNC hacks is now telling us that they know the Russians are behind this alleged hack. And yet, as cyber-security expert Jeffrey Carr points out here, there is no way CrowdStrike (or anybody else) could definitively point to Russian “state actors” as the culprits in this or any other case: that’s because the procedure they use in “tracing” a hack is inherently subjective, what Carr calls “faith-based attribution.”
Technical analysis of code and the software utilized by the hackers is less than helpful in identifying hackers: if Chinese characters are found in code, well then you’ve been hacked by the People’s Liberation Army. If Russian characters are discovered, well then it’s Putin’s spies. Except this is nonsense: as Carr explains it, if a Kalashnikov is used in a murder, does that mean the murderer is a Russian? Well, uh, no – and no one would ever make that assumption. And yet this is precisely the sort of “analysis” we’re getting from the hucksters who infest the “cyber-security” industry. In short,the “scientific” analysis marketed by these companies is based on assumptions that cannot be objectively verified.
These companies would like their customers to believe that their conclusions are based on science, but as Carr points out:
“It’s important to know that the process of attributing an attack by a cybersecurity company has nothing to do with the scientific method. Claims of attribution aren’t testable or repeatable because the hypothesis is never proven right or wrong..."
and further:
"...What we are dealing with here is an industry – “cyber-security” – that has a vested interest in promoting the idea that its methodology is “scientific,’ and that it can provide answers to its paying customers who want to know for sure who hacked their computer systems. It wouldn’t do to tell them that no definitive answers are possible, and that any attribution procedure is necessarily based on a whole range of assumptions that are not objectively verifiable. That wouldn’t do much to improve their profit margins. So they market themselves as “scientists” who have all the answers, when, in fact, they have no answers.
This is how a corporate scam turns into a political scam. Reporters looking for “experts” to verify what they already believe, and government officials and partisan players who have a similar agenda, are all too willing to suspend disbelief. A combination of technical ignorance, laziness, and extreme bias produces the kind of “journalism” that is fueling the campaign to attribute every case of hacking to the Russians..."
The Most Important Reaction To Hillary Clinton’s Speech On Trump’s Racism
Yes Trump is possibly a dangerous racist buffoon but once again Think Progress has an article which doesn’t bother to mention Hillary own checkered history on racism or her anti-immigration stance her defense of police shootings and her defense of Mass Incarceration and the War ON Drugs and her mass bombings of Muslim majority countries from Iraq, to Syria, to Libya to her unconditional support of the racist regime in Israel that treats all Palestinians, Muslims, Arabs as a little less than human. So someone at this site should post a more in depth article on Hillary’s checkered racist past and present and if she has changed enough to now be clear of such charges instead of presenting Trump as pure evil and Hillary supposedly on the side of the Angels?.
and :
"...Oh, those rascally Russkies are everywhere! According to our news media, they are not only responsible for the hacking of the Democratic National Committee, but Putin’s spies have also gotten their mitts on the computer files of the Clinton Foundation. The same evidence-free rationale – promulgated by the same “cyber-security” companies in the pay of the Democrats – is utilized to validate this latest claim. And indeed a Bloomberg piece on the alleged hack informs us that
“If the Democrats can show the hidden hand of Russian intelligence agencies, they believe that voter outrage will probably outweigh any embarrassing revelations, a person familiar with the party’s thinking said.”
Deny, deflect, distract – that’s Hillary’s strategy. With a compliant media in tow, so far it seems to be working, at least to the extent that Russian hackers are now generally accepted as a veritable arm of the Trump campaign – when, in fact, there is absolutely zero evidence that Russian state actors are involved in any way. We haven’t seen this level of deception since the ginned up “evidence” of Iraqi “weapons of mass destruction.”
This entire conspiracy theory is based on a much broader one, which has been pushed by a number of groups with a vehemently anti-Russian cold war agenda. The Legatum Institute, headquartered in Britain, as well as the usual neoconservative suspects in this country, have long maintained that the Russians, while militarily and economically weak, have turned to “information warfare” as their primary instrument of “aggression.” Legatum has been pushing for a government-subsidized “anti-disinformation” agency to combat this new “threat,” as well as urging outright censorship of Russian state-subsidized networks such as “Russia Today” and “Sputnik.”

Fox News Pastor: Police Are 'Ministers Of God, Sent By God'
And my rant:
If police officers are ministers of GOD then whatever they do is God's will and therefore we must comply or die? In a theocratic state of course this would be a no-brainer. But most countries including USA supposedly is not a theocratic state. But as I have argued at other times there are many Americans who believe that the USA is special because it is God chosen nation the City on A Hill.
If it is The City on The Hill then all those who are part of its government are doing God's work and watch was chosen by God for the job they have. If one believes in this sort of hierarchy that it is a matter Divine design or a natural hierarchy in which people are preordained for the role they are to play as in Hinduism but many Christians also believe in a form of divine hierarchy .
This I think is part of Hillary Clinton's view that she is supposed to be president as a Divine mandate or a matter of being of the right class that she deserves it cause she prays diligently and believes in the right God as in Jesus because of her sacrifices somehow God and country owe her. The thing is that America is supposedly a democracy so someone runs for office and if they get enough votes they become president.
There is no divinity involved in this process esp if this is just God. A just God allows for free will and choice but if everything is foreordained then we are just stuck in a movie and everything is inevitable it is how the script was written . But seriously since Hillary has her prayer circle which is connected to an extremist Christian Cult. This Cult the Fellowship or The family preaches that there is a God ordained hierarchy and some are destined to rule to be rich and powerful. Having joined this group Hillary identifies with those at the top of the hierarchy which the Family and its leader Doug Coe believe.
The Family is the group which sponsor the annual Prayer Breakfast which open to the public to which the US president and other members of government and foreign leaders and the powerful meet . All those attending are not necessarily committed members of the actual church .It has become one of those events such people attend to make contacts , to be seen et.
As usual Hillary claims to be somewhat ignorant and naive about the church itself though it is connected to her prayer group. Its like she doesn't know nothing about no computer servers e-Mails - she also believed everything Bush and Cheney told her cos she's an innocent , naive , helpless? So many things she didn't know about like the coup in Honduras, the Coup in Ukraine, the destabilizing and destruction of Libya or the public lynching of Qaddafi etc.
Conspiracy or just an interesting aspect of Hillary Clinton's character and her form of Christian Spirituality and theology. That is if we believe she is somewhat spiritual and prayerful because she says it gives her strength and guides her decisions and ideology.
