Color Me Surprised…...



Tea Party member Senator Tom Cotton, author of the infamous "we're telling you Iranians not to deal with that Muslim-Kenyan usurper in our White House" letter signed by 47 senators, presented to the leaders of Iran…...translated into Farsi so they "can understand it"……..has a strong military background and he's not afraid to use it.

Tomorrow, 24 hours later, Cotton will appear at an “Off the Record and strictly Non-Attribution” event with the National Defense Industrial Association, a lobbying and professional group for defense contractors.                                             http://tinyurl.com/obyqx6z
"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist."        Dwight D. Eisenhower
This is the same senator who pushed legislation that would "punish any family member of those people, [who committed civil rights violations associated with the Iranian government] to include a spouse and any relative to the third degree," including, "parents, children, aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, grandparents, great grandparents, grandkids, great grandkids,"

  1. Where do they find these people? Beat me, but it's clear we've fallen down some sort of rabbit hole.
