                                                                                    didn’t Boss Tweet warn US?

                                                                  “Those who are too smart to engage in politics are

                                                               punished by being governed by those who are dumber.” 

                                                                                                     —Plato

jury, executioner Drone Ranger. War-juggling W; Bosnia-bombing
Slick Willy; And wily,100 year-old, war criminal accomplice… still at large…
