OPEN MIC INCIDENT ILLUSTRATIVE OF AMERICA’S FOREIGN POLICY HYPOCRISY

By FITSNEWS || In case you missed it, former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul has a wonderful column up this week highlighting the ridiculousness of American foreign policy vis-a-vis Russia.

Read it HERE.

What’s even more ridiculous than America’s policy toward Russia?  Its thirty-year-war with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), a group the U.S. war machine was subsidizing as recently as last year.

Anyway … in a rare moment of honesty, U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki acknowledged the ridiculousness (spot the trend) of the propaganda she spoon feeds the American people on a daily basis.  In the aftermath of tough questioning regarding America’s policy toward Egypt, Psaki neglects to cut off her microphone before admitting that her nonsensically dismissive/ belligerently non-responsive “answers” about Egypt were … “ridiculous.”

The colleague’s response?  Hysterical laughter …

The open mic incident occurs at the 2:00 minute mark of the clip below … although the entire exchange is instructive as it provides a look at just how silly, hypocritical and evasive our government has become.

Your standards aren’t too high, are they?

What’s the standard for great tits? They look to be large & plump/firm. Sure, they might hit the floor when the bra comes off, but it’s all about image right now…not reality.

Have you considered that her freakishly small hands may be rendering the optical illusion of a large bust line? Jen’s hands freak me the hell out!

When a girl has small hands it makes my cock look bigger…..

Wondered how long the “what’s the best part of getting a hand job from a midget” jokes started appearing!

Why do tall women like dating midgets? Because nose-to-nose their toes are in it, and toes-to-toes their nose is in it.

She’s only about 5″1′ most women of that height have small hands and fingers. From some experience they also have very tight nether regions.

And I’d bet THEY would not be “unresponsive”….

A little more “transparency” would help clear things up.

Then for god sakes vote Democrat. I would rather have corrupt politicians looking out after the middle class than corrupt politicians looking out after rich people.

In May 1996, Paul was confronted in an interview by the Dallas Morning News about a line that appeared in a 1992 newsletter, under the headline “Terrorist Update”: “If you have ever been robbed by a black teenaged male, you know how unbelievably fleet of foot they can be.” His response:

Dr. Paul denied suggestions that he was a racist and said he was not evoking stereotypes when he wrote the columns. He said they should be read and quoted in their entirety to avoid misrepresentation…

In the interview, he did not deny he made the statement about the swiftness of black men.

“If you try to catch someone that has stolen a purse from you, there is no chance to catch them,” Dr. Paul said.

Paul also defended his claim, made in the same 1992 newsletter that “we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in [Washington, DC] are semi-criminal or entirely criminal” Paul told the Dallas Morning News the statistic was an “assumption” you can gather from published studies.

Paul’s failure to deny authorship was not an oversight. He was repeatedly confronted about the newsletters during his 1996 campaign and consistently defended them as his own. A few examples:

– In 1996, Ron Paul’s campaign defended his statements about the rationality of fearing black men. (“[W]e are constantly told that it is evil to be afraid of black men, it is hardly irrational.”) The Houston Chronicle reports, “A campaign spokesman for Paul said statements about the fear of black males mirror pronouncements by black leaders such as the Rev. Jesse Jackson.” [Houston Chronicle, 5/23/96]

– Paul said that his comments on blacks contained in the newsletters should be viewed in the context of “current events and statistical reports of the time.” [Houston Chronicle,5/23/96]

– Paul defended statements from an August 12, 1992 newsletter calling the late Rep. Barbara Jordan (D-TX) a “moron” and a “fraud.” Paul also said Jordon was “her race and sex protect her from criticism.” In response, Paul said “such opinions represented our clear philosophical difference.” [Roll Call, 7/29/96]

– “Also in 1992, Paul wrote, ‘Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5 percent of blacks have sensible political opinions.’Sullivan said Paul does not consider people who disagree with him to be sensible. And most blacks, [Paul spokesman Michael] Sullivan said, do not share Paul’s views.” [Austin American Statesman, 5/23/96]

Everything he says sounds spot on target, especially the comments about Barbara Jordan. Which statement above would you say is false?

They are all a pack of pathological liars. They say one thing, but are doing another. God Damn them all. This is why, in part, the public is rising up against them all – like the Garner Protest and riots. Its all coming to a head and the entire nation is going to revolt against these stuck up narcissist fools who think the masses will remain civil in the face of there increasing lawlessness and reckless disregard for the law. Everywhere it is evident, that the majority are going to revolt on a massive scale all at once.

Please give this gal a break. She has the impossible job of making John Kerry look good. The worst Sec. of state ever, working for the worst POTUS ever. Jan 20 , 2017 will end the longest terrorist attack ever recorded. I just hope there is enough left of the USA to bring it back.

Let’s be realistic. Sisi is a military strong man that has killed hundreds of protesters. His enemies strap bombs to themselves enter markets and churches. We can support Sisi or risk the chaos of Libya or Syria.
