    No, I wouldn't vote for Trump if he was running against Hitler. Gary Johnson is the man, don't care if he doesn't know what Bora Bora is either.

    You're an LSU fan. You should be used to rooting for one by now.

    And then there's this $115B....

    "The Obama administration has offered to sell $115bn worth of weapons to Saudi Arabia over its eight years in office, more than any previous US administration, according to a new report.

    The surge in sales is in part to reassure the Saudi monarchy of US backing in the wake of last year’s nuclear deal with Tehran, which raised fears in the Gulf that Washington would tilt more towards Tehran in its foreign policy.

    The report’s author, William Hartnung of the Centre for International Policy, said another factor was a drive by US arms manufacturers to boost sales to compensate declining procurement by the Pentagon. However, the most recent deals – such as the offer to sell more than 150 M1A2 Abrams battle tanks for an estimated $1.15bn – were principally intended to replenish the Saudi arsenal, depleted in the war in Yemen."


    So we sold weapons to SA because we brokered a phucked deal with Iran? And because WE aren't buying enough shit? Good Gotdamn.
