MY, MY…HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED! AT ONE TIME, REPUBLICANS ACCUSED PRESIDENT OBAMA OF TURNING THE U.S. INTO A BANANA REPUBLIC! WITH NO RESPECT ANYWHERE! π
Banana Republicans
(Itβs not an original phrase, but useful.)
Well, letβs see. Banana Republics were company-owned countries managed by puppet dictatorships relying on intimidation and militarized police for the benefit of a few to the detriment of the public.
The new twist sounds like a foreign policy coming home to roost like a ghost from the past.
Anyone else feeling spooked?
