Trump Don't Care, Republicans finally get their Deathpanels

Laura Nazigraham is being touted as the next Trump Press Secretary
The Rich Plutocrat is looking forward to defending the
Trump Don't Care Death Panel Bill.
The 13 Republican Senators just unveiled their bill.  And it is a giant Death Panel.  The Republican Party had been yearning for years to eliminate the Social Safety net and this bill gets them closer to that goal; with the ultimate goal being the impoverishment and enslavement of the American People.

The Republican Party has moved closer to their grand plan of freeing the Plutocracy from all taxes, regulations, controls, and laws while the 99% are denied any chance at the American Dream.

The AHCA is a massive tax cut and transfer of wealth to the Plutocracy wrapped up in the tattered remnants of the Social Safety Net.  Of course, many Trump voters will be denied healthcare, will die from treatable conditions, will suffer but the comfortable will be comforted and the afflicted will be afflicted.

Lawyers, Guns, and Money have correctly identified the governing principles of the modern Republican Party:
1) More money for Us
2) Fuck You
The only sticking point for the Republicans, right now, is bill doesn't go far enough and completely eliminate the meager assistance given to the poor, the sick, the tired.  However, the Republican Party did take a major step towards the elimination of Medicaid, which is a joint Federal/State government funded healthcare system funded by the U.S. Government and managed by States.  The Trump/Republican Don't Care bill allows States free reign over the money which means those Federal dollars won't be going for medical care for poor, disabled, and elderly but, will be neatly transferred into the Cayman off-shore bank accounts of the Rich in Sam Brownbackian fashion.

It does not matter the Trump Don't Care bill is massively unpopular.  The Republican Party has correctly identified there are no such things as future elections.  There is only the now.  There is no need for them to fear future repercussions because come next election cycle, a mere 1 year from now, the Republican bureaucrats in Congress will gin up another cache of false flag pseudo-controversies to dupe their deluded drones and vicious bigots; who will then dutifully return them to Congress to wreak more destruction.  Now, combined with the Republican Party openly aligning with a foreign government the long sought after dream of the Republicans is within reach.

Their dream, is not the American Dream, but a dream of a Neo-Feudalist Nation, wherein 99% of Americans are shackled in the "gig-economy" of Wage Slavery, stuck in Corporate bondage with no recourse through the courts, with no assistance from the U.S. government, with unequal protection from Law Enforcement, which is wholly owned by Billionaires, and ruthlessly operated by the Guard Dogs of the Plutocracy; The Republican Party.

Who's worse? Karl Dönitz or Muhammad Fazl or Bowe Bergdahl? (Updated

As the Bowe Bergdahl incident drags on, his hometown of Hailey Idaho was forced to cancel a Welcome Home Parade as Right-Wing extremists threatened violent domestic terrorist attacks in response.

While, over at Faux News, conservative media gurus have organized former members of Bergdahl's platoon to smear him because, as I predicted Faux News is destroying Bergdahl as a way to attack President Obama.

I will only note that Josh Korder, who said in an interview with CNN of Bowe Bergdahl, "He is at best a deserter, and at worst a traitor," received a General Discharge under other than Honorable conditions.

In a trial, which is not what Dishonorable Conservative Media is engaged in, the character of a witness testifying against the accused is, of course relevant, as the Defense will try and impeach the testimony. However, that often leads to the smearing of the witness which I will not do against Korder.

What's of more import is the nature of those released. Republicans and Right-Wing liars immediately took to labeling the 5 released from GITMO as the "hardest, toughest, meanest" and the "worst of the worst".

Of course, conservative blow hards and bloggers couldn't be bothered to name their supposed crimes and couldn't even name the 5 released from Gitmo. Most likely, cause they all look alike to conservative racists.

Eventually, right-wingers were forced to reference NPR, New York Times publication of DoD JTF Gitmo files and the UN reports.

Muhammad Fazl was a military leader under the Taliban and was also a refugee from the Soviet Occupation of Afghanistan. I wonder if he received any CIA training in Pakistan to fight the Soviets in the 1980s... He surrendered in November 2001!

Khirullah Said Wali Khairkhwa is a friend of Hamid Karzi, who was arrested in Pakistan in January 2002...

Norullah Noori claims to have joined the Taliban in the late 90's then went to Mazer-i-Sharif to work as a bureaucrat and eventually "Governor" and surrendered in November 2001.

Mohammad Nabi trained in Pakistan (hmmm with whom again) and fought against the Soviets with the mujahaddein was arrested in September 2002.

Abdul Haq Wasiq a religious student in the 1980s he was a member of Taliban "Intelligence Directorate" and was captured in November 2001!

For over a dozen years they have languished in Guantanamo. Sure, they were members of the Taliban but, the Taliban was the Government of Afghanistan from 1996-2001.

Anything they knew of intelligence value expired 10 years ago. They didn't participate in the insurgency. It's despicable the level of active ignorance and violent stupidity on display by dishonorable conservatives.

Now, as right-wingers are pig ignorant morons I can't expect them to know the name Karl Dönitz. He was the last Head of State for Nazi Germany. Hitler named Dönitz his successor as Head of State prior to his suicide. Previously, Dönitz was the Admiral in charge of U-Boats at the start of WW2 and then Grand Admiral of the Kriegsmarine. 

After the war he was tried at Nuremburg and spent 10 years in prison. The last ruler of Nazi Germany spent less time in prison then the 5 at Gitmo...

But, none of this matters to shameless dishonorable conservatives. Because they are the drones of the Republican Party, remote control weapons sent to destroy the opponents of the Plutocracy.

Update:
Oh look Right-Wingers have taken to lying about the men released. No More Mister Nice Blog found PJ Media Andrew McCarthy retweeting a photo which he identified as Muhammad Fazl even though it definitively is not.

Meanwhile, retired Col. Morris Davis, former prosecutor at Guantanamo says the five are so inconsequential he doesn't even remember them. But, that doesn't matter to conservative liars.

The Right-Wing Media resorts to lies because they know their conservative drone followers will absorb and re-emit their lies with unthinking certainty.

Why Libertarians hate Teachers and love Donald Sterling

It's for the same reason Libertarians hate the American Middle Class because Libertarianism is a philosophical Rube Goldberg machine created to rationalize Plutocracy and defend Unearned Privilege.

Years ago when Teachers were only able to provide supplemental income to the family (with the exception of the all-male University Professors) there were afforded respect and looked upon as a bedrock institution helping craft American Exceptionalism. But, then Teachers' income increased, granting women economic security while they exerted political pressure through Unionization, while they also began to infiltrate Upper Levels of Academia encroaching upon White Male Privilege.

Teachers became part of the America Middle Class which the 1% hates more than anything else in the world.

The American Middle Class is much too mercurial for the Plutocracy, they don't bow down and worship the Moneyed Masters the way whipped conservatives and libertarians dogs do. The American Middle Class votes for nasty socialist schemes like Old Age insurance and health care for the poor, indigent and sick. These concepts are anathema to the Plutocracy and their Right-Wing slaves.

The Plutocracy began to decry Teachers because they were not molding American minds to be good wage slaves deferential to Power and Privilege. Thus, the Koch Brothers and other One Percenters created the Libertarian Party to train their little libertarian guard dogs, who would dutifully convince others that allowing the Rich to do whatever they want was the right way and would ensure that they themselves were the just upon the cusp of becoming the Masters of the World as long as they stayed in line.

Left-leaning libertarians, apparently exist, but libertarians are overwhelmingly young, white, males who more closely identify with the Tea Party or Republicans.

The Donald Sterling Fiasco revealed how much Libertarians see a Plutocrat losing his Privilege as an attack on them.

Libertarians at Reason were more concerned that a hypothetical minority Basketball or Hockey owner (of course meaning black) was going to get away with racist speech while apparently being so obtuse they didn't realize, or more likely didn't care, there is exactly 1 African-American owner in the NBA, Michael Jordan, and none in the NHL.

Additionally, libertarians were incensed that Sterling's precious privacy rights were trampeled upon when his "girlfriend" V. Stiviano, made the surreptitious recordings of him. Why she needs to be arrested for violations of eavesdropping laws! But, since Sterling isn't pressing charges to whom did the libertarians turn to punish V. Stiviano? Why the State.

If Sterling isn't going to press charges then there's no victim and no crime. But, Libertarianism is a cadre of young, white males who are adamant that the only acceptable use of State Power is defending the Rich and Powerful and ensuring their rights are placed above the rest of society.

You see the rest of society steals from the Rich and Powerful using the Power of the State.

Libertarians ascribe all sorts of evils and crimes to the "State". The State has killed Hundreds of Millions they claim, as if people were nothing more than instruments. Personal Responsibility disappears when the State can be blamed. They blame the State for such 'fictions' as pollution,
DissidentRight said... 
The pollution problem has been discussed ad nauseam, and it only becomes a problem when 1) businessmen are prevented from using the "pollution" as an input to some other industrial process and 2) when there's un-owned property upon which to dump it. Solution: 1) deregulate markets (people always find novel uses for industrial leftovers) and 2) assign ownership to everything. Pollution, as usual, is a problem that cannot exist without the State.

If it wasn't for the State the Koch Brothers (ala Hank Reardon) would turn Petcoke into usable fuel and there would be no petcoke pollution problem. And if you unfortunately are poor and happen to be next to the plant which burns petcoke well you and your kids cancer could have been caused by any number of things!!! Just turn over the commons to the Rich and they would be good stewards and would surely never allow or cause any permanent damage to occur.

But, all of their anti-state rigamarole covers their true agenda which is their absolute deference and defense of Power and Privilege.

Libertarians are just another breed of Reactionary Guard Dogs for White Male Power and Privilege. And the saddest thing is, libertarians can not envision a day when they will be treated the same way the Plutocracy treats Women and Minorities.
