It's Not Genocide, Even Though It Is, But Not Really.

Hussein the Bullshitter strikes again. Trying to lay down the funk in Turkey, Barry has backed away from calling the mass killing of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire during WWI a genocide. This, despite his indignation and outcry while he was a "senator" that he stood with Armenian-Americans in calling Turkey to the carpet on the issue, stating "the facts are undeniable", and promising "as president I will recognize the Armenian Genocide."

Welcome to politics the Chicago Way, my Armenian friends. Disciples of the Chicago Machine will say whatever you want to hear, promise you it's not bullshit with a straight face, leave you holding the bag when the time comes, and find a way to tax the bag.

After which, of course, comes the smoke and mirrors to make the people they just gleefully exploited look like ungrateful subversives in the press.

Hussein and Abdullah Gul: a turkey and a Turk tradin' the jive.
