And that is just his normal Monday!
Sorry, but my job doesn't involve dropping bombs on Afghani civilians. My job doesn't involve raping the American taxpayer to stuff billions more
down a bloated military industrial complex. My job doesn't involve trampling the Constitution, betraying your oath to the nation, and invading
foreign countries on the behalf of foreign lobbyists and criminal billionaires.
I'm sure serial rapists, CIA torturers, psychopathic swindlers and Taliban killers sometimes laugh at what they're doing too. Doesn't make it
right. Doesn't make it normal. Doesn't deserve one ounce of sympathy or one modicum of respect from anyone, anywhere, ever.
"Just another guy at work." Maybe, if your idea of a normal workplace is the Seventh (Violence), Eight (Fraud), and Ninth (Treachery) Circles of
Hell.
