Ever get the feeling that you are on the wrong planet? [View all]

I'm half asleep here, and I clicked on the TV while trying to wake up.

Morning Joe was on.

Did I just see Lindsey Graham proposing a bill to have taxpayers fund that ballroom?

Or was that some kind of dream?

Because I don't even know what to say about that.

Because we bombed a school in Iran and killed 150 little girls whose lives are just as important as any politician or "leader".

Did I really see that?

And if I did see that, how many fellow Americans are going to eat that shit up like it's a fine meal?

Holy shit...some days I can't tell if what I'm seeing is reality, or if instead, I'm just losing my mind.
