I've been writing about lying politicians & government boondoggles for 35+ years. And I don't trust politicians simply because they want to start warring – the biggest boondoggle of them all. https://t.co/t43aODKuk9

My experience is my friends Dad committing suicide in front of his family because of the PTSD of combat.@JimBovard writes about lies, deceit, war machine double deals that have nothing to do with actual combat, but bogas official narrative being exposed as total bullshit.
