"I Am Spartacus"

Admiral William McRaven, a SEAL who retired in 2014 after 37 years of active duty, including commanding the US Special Operations Command, wrote an open letter to President* Trump to request that Trump also revoke his security clearance.
Dear Mr. President:

Former CIA director John Brennan, whose security clearance you revoked on Wednesday, is one of the finest public servants I have ever known. Few Americans have done more to protect this country than John. He is a man of unparalleled integrity, whose honesty and character have never been in question, except by those who don’t know him.

Therefore, I would consider it an honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well, so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your presidency.
No doubt that the Trumpanzees will be lining up to slander a man who served his country with honor, a man whose service goes back to the time when Commandante Bone Spurs was having sex with everything that moved while fending off claims of housing discrimination.

  1. You are a fool. John Brennen is a Muslim Communist. He is the architect of the Russian investigation. You both should be brought up on charges I’d treason and hung. Just give this time, can you spell Gitmo?

  2. Seems that some gutless right-wing individual has found your blog and is now trying to persuade you that your viewpoint is misguided. The coward won't even post using his/her own name. If it wasn't so serious, the right's blind following of Trump would be humorous.

  3. A Muslim communist? Is that anything like a Japanese communist?

  4. WTF is the definition of "Muslim Communist'?

    I don't think those can be reconciled together.

  5. That's nothing. I've seen "atheist Muslim" before.

    And, I gotta ding Anon. for not fitting "Shillary" in there, too. Republicans have invested billions into hating Clintons. You don't turn your back on that kind of investment, even if they are out of politics!
