Noam Chomsky "Hypocrisy of US Foreign Policy"

The State of the Union 2014

The Boston Pine Flag doesn't usually post either comedy or fiction, but out of respect for Pres. Obama we have decided to make an exception for him. It never ceases to amaze me how delusion, willfully ignorance, and just plain stupidity passes for political nous in the US. The only two things that the President's State of the Union address said was that: firstly, he and his advisors are completely oblivious to the legion of catastrophic crises that are wracking the United States, and, secondly, that Sec. of State Kerry recognizes that Putin has the Obama administration over a barrel. Congratulations Pres. Putin and FM Lavrov on forcing the US to concede closing GITMO and Iranian sanctions--at least in Tuesday's State of the Union.
