    Here's the thing: Say Neocons (but please, not Kissinger) will be helpful in defeating Trump. How do we prevent war escalation as a result?

        The actions to ensure we will escalate our wars are being taken as we speak. January will be too late to stop it.

        Progressives are rightly trying to get their bodies in places that affect domestic policy. Where do you think Neocons are demanding bodies?

        (2) I point black told him we were sliding to war in Syria. His response was long winded and NOT reassuring.

        She doesn't hide this. Calling for a NoFly in Syria is sheer craziness.

        (1)When asked about this Sullivan waffled. Kagan supports Clinton for a reason. Sup Crt means vote for Clinton imperative.

        (2)But we are about to find out that O was far more skeptical of mil. intervention than HRC. We will miss him more than we think

        Oh, I know that. My 2008 decision went: O far better on FP, Hillary better on domestic, Hillary aides piss me off more. Ergo Obama.

        As it turns out, Obama was just a bridge to #HRC . And preventing anything better from happening. He'll be paid well.

        That's the difference between pointing out that Clinton is a serious actor on foreign affairs, and offering them a seat at table

        They're at the table. That's what they get for endorsing her. Same as what unions, progressives get.

        I'm not certain that's true, some seem to just be true children of NeverTrump, happy that Clinton's views aren't antithetical

        I am certain. Very, very, certain. Trust me, they were demanding spots 3 weeks before progressives were.

        "decade"? If we're already at 15 years, aren't we talking "decades"?

        We can't. Sadly, I think Hillary escalates with or without open neocon support.

        She is rather predisposed to escalation, I agree. And script she's giving to CIA wannabes is shockingly bellicose.

        Putting Hillary in office = abs guarantee of war escalation. Perhaps 2point of nuclear and/or world war. She's made that clear
