Decades ago, the phrase "Great Satan" echoed from Tehran as Iranian hardliners vilified the United States, casting it as the root of global evil. Now, in a twist that would amuse even the most jaded observer of Washington, a longtime Democratic congressman has dusted off the term to describe his own country – under President Trump's leadership, no less.
Democrat Rep. Hank Johnson (GA-04), who has served in the House since 2007, laid it out plainly on the "Dean Obeidallah Show" podcast this past Sunday: America, he said, has become the "Great Satan," a nation that kills with impunity and bullies the world into submission. Johnson's remarks stemmed from a discussion on the Trump administration's recent strike against a suspected drug-trafficking boat in the Caribbean. The operation, which targeted vessels linked to cartel activity, drew fire from progressive circles for its assertiveness.

(For those who aren’t familiar with
the stupid shit Johnson spews, back in 2010, during a House Armed
Services Committee hearing, he warned that stationing more troops on
Guam might cause the island to "tip over and capsize" under its own
weight – and he wasn’t joking.*)

I lived on Guam for half my life. We had typhoons with 200+ mph winds and 40 foot waves and the island only capsized once. But we all hung on to the east side and flipped it back over quickly so we were all okay. Thank you Congressman for caring.
More great observations from Bloody Stupid Johnson spokesman for the left
ReplyDeleteI was born in Georgia and it just blows my mind that there are people there SO STUPID that they elect this certified moron over and over. BUT, Hanks district is on the outskirts of the liberal bastion of Atlanta. ~50% black and ~20% uneducated hispanic ... 'nuff said.
