I get the biggest kick out of Trumpkins who say "Hillary is just out for herself, it's all me, me, me! I can't vote for that, so I'm voting for TRUMP!"
It's hilarious how bad a lack of self-awareness that shows.
Pretty darn good actually. The "corrupt doormat" is no more corrupt than any other politician operating not eh national scale. She is easily the most qualified candidate to be President I've seen in my life. The funny thing is that Trump is easily the least qualified candidate. Couldn't even have his old lady give a speech without incident.So her level of corruption, which has been well documented, is okay with you, because to you it doesn't exceed the general level of political corruption.
You guys say it doesn't prevent someone from voting. I do. It prevented me. Done deal, sorry you don't like it. All so you can protect against an utterly imaginary threat. You guys must believe in the Easter Bunny too.No, it didn't. It prevented you from not being inconvenienced because of (a) your own incompetence for not knowing the rules, or (b) your obstinance for refusing to accept the rules designed to ensure a fair and free election.
Aaaaaaaaaand Ted Cruz commits political seppuku on live TV in front of tens of millions rather than to simply live by the pledge he among others insisted Trump commit to.
This is the character of Cruz, a man who will probably never win elective office ever again.
What a childish, selfish and ultimately self-destructive thing to do - and fully in line with the nagging suspicion I had about his character all along.
One can only hope at this point that Trump fully expected this and knew it would simultaneously improve his connection to HIS base and gave ol' Lyin' Ted enough rope - Cruz is done, what a putz and a classless way to go out.
'Gimp
I felt the same about Fox, and in most cases the guests were irrelevant. I think I'm going to watch it on C-SPAN tonight.
Let's face it, White Supremacy has ruled the planet for the last 4,000 years so it's pervasive. I acknowledge its pervasiveness but I know that we are now at the time in the history of the world where it's on it's way out. I don't think it will be in my lifetime, but as Dr. King said, "I've seen the Mountaintop".
A one hour job. Tires and tubes that hard to come by in Ohio?
I really don't understand all these complaints about the Obominator, other than the fact that the only thing that could possibly come out of his mouth that would make you guys happy are "I resign". The only thing he could do is die.He could have remembered that he was at a FUCKING MEMORIAL SERVICE and not on the stump for his agenda. If he shut the fuck up after the first part of his speech, it would have been fine.
But thinking about the event, what do you guys think he should have done? Just not shown up? The POTUS is supposed to not show up to one of the worst tragedies in US history. Right.
So he shows up. Whats he supposed to do, just keep his yap shut? He's the POTUS for Odin's sake!
So he speaks. What's he supposed to say? Lionize the officers, check. Talk about the problems we've been experiencing between officers and civilians. Check. Talk about how we have to keep things in balance. Presidential.
Like I said, he'd have to disappear through a hole to the 8th dimension and take Joe with him before you guys would be happy.
He could have cut his speech by more than half, and still have made his points.
Did obama really claim that it is easier for a teenager to buy a glock than get his hands on a book?Yes, he did. THAT'S precisely what widows and fatherless children need to hear when their husbands and fathers are lying in caskets in front of them.
is obama really that stupid?
We need leadership, not f'n morons.
There is an element of that in critical thinking. Is the person or entity reporting the new facts in a position to actually know what he or she is reporting? This is important in Science, but even more so in intelligence. I haven't said anything about the author of the study, didn't even look the dude up. Just that the journal isn't one of which I'm familiar (which doesn't mean that much since social sciences aren't my bag. That said, if his study was really that tight he could have published it in Science or Nature. This kind of stuff makes it in). Moreover, the paper in the link isn't the DC paper I read. Because of all this it smells.
