Isn't disrespecting and insulting the President and Commander-on-Chief of our Republic by serving a foreign power an act of treason? Boehner is a disgraceful traitor to America and a slavish lapdog to foreign interests.
These guys are deliberately ignorant - "we make history", "we make reality" they say. That Bush III would think Paul Wolfowitz is qualified to do ANYTHING relating to foreign policy is about as complete an indictment of his lack of leadership qualification as any.
Egypt was firmly in the Soviet sphere after Nasser's coup in 1952-56 - the Soviet Union funded the Aswan high dam, for example. This relationship lasted until Sadat expelled Soviet advisors in 1972. Also - Egypt was in a formal union with Syria from 1958 until 1961. Given both these historical linkages, it's not surprising that the current regime is renewing them, perhaps as a hedge against US/Israeli regional hegemony.
Well, duh. I would add - dull-normal authoritarians. IQ 80-100.
The dupes who the oligarchy relies on. Reagan's base. Same people who read the "Left Behind" books.
All true, Juan. But our entire culture is physically sustained by oil and coal, and ideologically sustained by blind belief in growth and profit. Beliefs that are essentially sociopathic at a systemic level. NO solution that does not address the fundamental evil of our dominant belief system will succeed. I mean, in what ethical system (other than industrial capitalism) is greed considered a virtue? Even the Ten Commandments single it out: "Thou shalt not covet....".
IMHO it will take severe crisis to wake the gas-powered TeeVee News zombies up. And then it will be very late in the game. Chaos and mass death are inevitable, I'm sorry to say.

American Taliban. Not happy until everybody is enforced into his level of ignorance.
Gad what a maroon.

SO the House Majority Leader insults the President of the United States and serves a foreign power? There's a word for that - TRAITOR!
Not sure this redeems probably one of the most vociferous war-mongers in the Senate.

Watching DIane Feinstein's creepy orations confirms the prescience of the film "They Live".
