#5 Calling it Kabuki gives them too much credit. There's nothing refined or ancient or elevated about their stupid tricks. The Steele dossier, the FISA application, the Jan. 2017 report to Congress, their buffoonish fulminations on idiot talking heads cable shows: these are too clownish and stupid to deserve comparison with a centuries-old art form. Theater, yes: theater of obvious, blatant, absurdly unbelievable and repulsive nonsense. Theater of shit. Aka The Shitshow. |

#3 "We of the Kabuki anti-defamation league resent comparisons to American Democrats. We make no secret of who and how we preform and we don't delude ourselves that what we do is "real" life. " |
