Drudge Nails It: Why Would Anyone Vote Republican?

Matt Drudge is often disliked by the Right as much has he is the Left. Readers of his website are given the entire perspective on President Barack Obama's decision to launch another Middle Eastern War in Syria, one of our own government's making since the groups waging the civil war against the Syrian government would not exist but for the funding, arming and training they are receiving from our government. To date, the U.S. government has covertly spent over $1 billion dollars on the civil war in Syria, which has claimed more than 100,000 lives and created over 2 million refugees. Drudge can't understand why so many Republicans are so anxious to go along with Obama's new war. "Why would anyone vote Republican," he tweets. "Raised taxes; marching us off to war again; approved more NSA snooping. WHO ARE THEY?" My sentiments exactly. He really hits the nail on the head when he suggests there is now no difference between Democrats and Republicans. Instead, our choice is "Authoritarian v. Libertarian."

MATT DRUDGE ‏@DRUDGE 20h Why would anyone vote Republican? Please give reason. Raised taxes; marching us off to war again; approved more NSA snooping. WHO ARE THEY?!

It's now Authoritarian vs. Libertarian. Since Democrats vs. Republicans has been obliterated, no real difference between parties...

 

It's quite obvious to me from their comments that Republican members of Congress from Indiana like Susan Brooks and Luke Messer are totally bought and paid for by the military industrial complex. Neither one of them has any idea what it's like to serve in the military or the sacrifices that our soldiers and their families have made over the past 12 years to fight these totally useless wars in the Middle East, which only serve the dual purposes of propping up oil prices for the puppet regimes run by the CIA and transferring trillions of dollars in wealth to the military industrial complex that now seems to control every branch of the federal government through hook or crook. Even Indiana's most liberal Democratic member of Congress, Andre Carson, is sounding an awful lot like he plans to find an excuse for supporting the President as well.

 

Secretary of State John Kerry tells members of Congress no boots on the ground will be required. Instead, we're just going to bomb the hell out of the country to give the terrorist rebels the opportunity to topple the government like we did in Libya. Here's what Libya looks like today after we succeeded in getting rid of Gaddafi according to The Independent:

A little under two years ago, Philip Hammond, the Defence Secretary, urged British businessmen to begin “packing their suitcases” and to fly to Libya to share in the reconstruction of the country and exploit an anticipated boom in natural resources.

Yet now Libya has almost entirely stopped producing oil as the government loses control of much of the country to militia fighters.

Mutinying security men have taken over oil ports on the Mediterranean and are seeking to sell crude oil on the black market. Ali Zeidan, Libya’s Prime Minister, has threatened to “bomb from the air and the sea” any oil tanker trying to pick up the illicit oil from the oil terminal guards, who are mostly former rebels who overthrew Muammar Gaddafi and have been on strike over low pay and alleged government corruption since July.

As world attention focused on the coup in Egypt and the poison gas attack in Syria over the past two months, Libya has plunged unnoticed into its worst political and economic crisis since the defeat of Gaddafi two years ago. Government authority is disintegrating in all parts of the country putting in doubt claims by American, British and French politicians that Nato’s military action in Libya in 2011 was an outstanding example of a successful foreign military intervention which should be repeated in Syria . . .

And to think that this President won the Nobel Peace Prize even before taking office.
