Who are our friends, and who are our enemies?

[Steve in Oakland]

As a famous Chinese philosopher wrote, "Who are our friends, and who are our enemies, is the most important question." Unfortunately, in American politics we have to choose between "the lesser of evils." How many times in the past four years have we read that Obama has done something worse, or more times, than Bush did during his eight years in office? Like raiding medical marijuana dispensaries, for instance. With a Supreme Court top-heavy with Nazis, and a dissembling obfuscating White House - to say nothing of the Rich Men's Clubs, the Senate and the House of Representatives - we are up against it, for sure! I just keep humming "We all live in a fascist war machine!" [to the tune of Yellow Submarine, of course!] and it all seems to make sense. Hopefully, this, too, shall pass!
