    Will anything change? Prolly not.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      No, the Ayatollahs will blame Israel and the US while their ally, Putin, will take it all out on the Ukrainians and blame NATO.

      Business as usual.

        I was going to ask that. Dont know a whole lot about that government, but it seems that it is pretty much "one party" so no reason to think that the new president will be any different form the old president.

          As the song should have gone:

          Meet the new boss, same as the old boss
          Will get fooled again

                          Cool. It would be awesome if that were true

                          They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

                                Usually a Moment of Silence is in remembrance, not to honor.

                                I couldn't tell if which way it was presented to the Council or if they referred to him as the Butcher.
