Ted Rall for April 25, 2014

What the h3ll are you talking about, Ted? Is this some kind of war on disclosure or … man, you’re getting to be as bad as McCoy.

Looking back on the history of US involvement in other nations’ civil wars, I shudder to think what this will mean for the US in 20 years time. Most of regime change the US gets involved with usually comes back to bite us in the @$$.

Didn’t we covertly arm some other middle east rebels? What was that guy’s name? Osama something, I think. How well did that work out?

Ted I like the idea that you comment (and argue) with you readers, but when you do it why do you post a picture of a young Woody Allen?

Our covert operations for a long time HAVE remained “covert”, and if they hadn’t Americans might actually realize how many countries we’ve screwed up, or screwed over, especially since WW II.

Ted I figured that, for a political cartoonist, you are pretty rugged looking.

Thank god you don’t look like the people you draw.

Keep posting, even if it must be depressing to have to deal with some of the comments.

Perhaps Ted is implying that there is nothing to disclose? News outlets are just feeding the “trolls” to keep the money flowwing in? Just consider the Area 51 nonsense. Yet many people still think, the government (CIA, FBI, NSA, etc.) is hiding something.

I also appreciate your engaging with your readers, Ted.
