Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      @Uncle_Jimbo If you supported GWB overthrowing Saddam, then you supported giving Iran a nice wide highway into controlling parts of Iraq.

      @jeremyscahill I'm against not whacking Saddam the first time & for doing it the second. We just shoulda stayed, then no highway for Iran

      @Uncle_Jimbo Let me get this straight: you don't believe the US invasion and overthrow of Saddam helped Iran & ultimately ISIS?

          @emptywheel @jeremyscahill Well it is OUR policy since your guy is "leading" this goat screw. So we are all paying. Staying was much cheaper
