My comment
It doesn't matter what Trump says about KKK endorsements. Trump could come out in the strongest manner possible (with a wink of the eye) and the KKK will still love him. Trump is not perfect but he is the most robust white power candidate to come out since George Wallace.
One can only hope these racists and white power goony birds are too stupid to register and won't be able to vote. The most they will be able to do is run down to Taco Bell and scare little kids with their guns, unwashed appearance and dirty mouths.
Trump should make a campaign promise offering free showers, a haircut and new paramilitary costumes (brown shirts?) for all the potbellied gray haired white supremacists, if only they will shut up until he is the POTUS. Then they can do as they please.
It wasn't illegal for her to use a private
server at the time. No laws were broken. All of the so called classified Emails
were deemed classified after the fact. None were classified when sent. This is yet
another Republican witch hunt funded by taxpayers.
I can understand concerns about secrecy and national secrets
if these investigations were non-partisan and equally applied. However,
investigating Hillary is purely political. If these Republican investigators
were also looking into Colin Powell's private email server while he was Secretary
of State, I would say, "go for it". If the contents of Condoleezza
Rice's private email server were scrutinized in
the same manner Hillary
Clinton's server is looked at, I would say, "good investigation".
That's not the case though, is it? As we speak, most of the
members of Congress and the Senate are currently running their own private
Email servers today or have done so in the past. Most government officials have
been running their own server since Email came into being. The people
investigating Hillary's private Email server and claiming it was so bad, are
doing or have done, the exact same thing now and in the past.
It's like Newt Gingrich impeaching Bill
Clinton for his improprieties while he was having his own affair during the
impeachment proceedings. Complete and total hypocrisy is being exercised today
regarding this investigation and the political nature of this inquiry is
obvious.
Only Republicans spend taxpayer money in this
politically motivated investigation. Making things even worse, Republicans make
up laws which never existed, spread these lies over their talking points
network and uninformed people repeat those lies as demonstrated in today’s
comments.
Republicans are proving once again they will
spend unlimited taxpayer money pursuing an individual simply for their own
political invectiveness, not to mention their extreme hypocrisy. The fact
Republican voters encourage such behavior tells us their talk about morality
and wasteful government spending is just a pack of lies. Hate is driving
Republican politicians and voters.
The truth is, Republicans are scared of
Hillary because she will delay their efforts to destroy the United States
government by expanding States Rights. She will blunt further control of our
government by the 1%. She will inhibit religion’s attempt to turn our nation
into a theocracy. Hypocritical liars and their supporters will stop at nothing
in order to stop Hillary.
It is truly a sad state of affairs watching the
Republican Party sink to such a low level of behavior. Show your disgust with
the current Republican Party at the polls and pray the party will one day
redeem themselves.
My comment:
Ted Dobson: Changes may be coming but I don't see a skilled Republican running for POTUS, who will be President for everyone. I see only hate and division among Republicans. I see Republican candidates who will only be president to a small segment of America. I would vote Republican if they didn't lie all the time and support ideas which will hurt me and my family.
I don't see Democrats threatening to secede, pass nullification laws or running around at Taco Bell scaring everyone with assault rifles. Democrats don't root for the day when 50,000 Americans can die from lack of health care, again. Democrats seem more patriotic towards America than a party devising ways to destroy what we have. To me, Democrats have more empathy for fellow Americans.
Democrats don't support policies which encourage back alley abortions like in the old days. Nor do they oppose sex education then refuse to care for unwanted children when uneducated kids produce an unwanted child. Democrats aren’t trying to limit birth control because they think conception occurs at the first erection.
Democrats, in general, don’t follow strange religious views mimicking primitive religious interpretations. In many respects, to me, Republicans act more like the Taliban than Americans. In my opinion, our nation needs one Amendment to the Constitution and we need it very soon. We need an Amendment clearly defining what Separation of Church and State really means.
The Democrat party is not home for every racist, homophobic white nationalist suffering from persecution complexes and delusions of superiority. We have our gays, socialists and women’s libbers but they are far more preferable than the crowd voting Republican. I'm a white guy and I have more in common with Blacks, Latinos and Gays than with my own race.
It just seems like half the country has gone insane and the only people preventing the wolves from entering the front door are Liberal Democrats. The coming Presidential election is turning out to be a struggle between abnormal un-American behavior and those who want to preserve our Union. Deviants during our Civil War tried to destroy America once before. It looks like Union Blue will need to rise again, as they did during our civil war, in order to save our nation.
Just terrible news coverage we get in this country The story completely ignores the fact the US has been taking advantage of the treaty since 2002 when the treaty was enacted. Enacted by G.W. Bush, by the way.
Here we are, complaining about a treaty we signed and ratified by a previous Senate. We have taken advantage of the treaty, have flown spy planes over Russia for at least twelve years and when Russia wants to do the same, it's Obama's fault. Have you people forgotten that Treaties are the law of the land?
Bush Jr. waved a wand and nullified the War Crimes Treaties passed by a previous administration, making him immune to War Crimes charges today. Real handy for him. Incidentally, that's a big hole in our Constitution. A sitting President shouldn't be able to nullify treaties signed by previous administrations and ratified by a previous Senate by simply waving a wand with no current Senate input. Just saying.
President Obama could do the same thing today. Simply issue an edict nullifying the treaty signed and ratified by a previous administration. End of problem. But wait a minute! Then we wouldn't be able to fly over Russia anymore and spy on them. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. I'm sure if Obama nullified that treaty, Obama haters would complain about that too.
You won't hear any politicians say, "he was a narrow minded
conservative who on many occasions ruled in favor of corporations hurting many
common Americans. All politicians will say nice things about him now that he is dead.
It will take at least two decades of new Supreme Court
decisions to unravel the harm he has done to this country. Considering how many
people he harmed, he is probably rotting in hell with Ronald Reagan, the man
who appointed him, as we speak".
Reagan killed thousands of innocent
people. Surely he is in Hell.
Some people are not missed when they depart. Jerry Falwell was a
welcome exit. I'm sure Lyndon Johnson is rotting in hell and good riddance to
him. When G.W. Bush departs this world for an eternal stay in Hell, the
survivors of dead and wounded Vets who gave everything for a lie, will quietly
cheer. The families of half a million dead Iraqis will celebrate.
With the way things are going, one can only hope there is a
Hell. Apparently Bush, Cheney, Rice, etc., etc. will never face the
consequences for what they did in this lifetime. There are several hundred
thousand dead human beings because of the lies they told. There isn’t a
religion on earth that can forgive Bush for what he did. Maybe ISIS would but
who knows how those nut jobs think.
I know I’m going off subject a little bit but George Bush and
his administration are war criminals. Here’s my reasoning and many won’t agree
with me. That’s too bad because making excuses for war crimes makes the
apologist just as disgusting as those who committed the crimes in the first
place.
The apologists make the excuse that George Bush got the wrong
intelligence. He was misinformed by all the intelligence agencies which
resulted in the mistake of annihilating Iraq. It is this lie which gives
credence to the war crime charges. All the intelligence agencies provided
correct assessments of Iraq’s capabilities.
The Bush Administration simply ignored the truth and purposely
told lies in order to wage a war. There are many theories as to why Bush had to
have his war but all those concepts are irrelevant at this point. There is a
single fact which cannot be disproven. The Bush Administration purposely lied
to the United States Congress, the American people and the world causing the
deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.
Iraq did not transpire because of bad information. Iraq happened
because of focused lying. If our intelligence agencies provided incorrect
information, perhaps one could let G.W. Bush off the hook. However, that is not
the case and because of the lies, Bush is a war criminal. G.W. Bush caused
incomprehensible suffering while conducting acts of murder on innocent human
beings.
Our intelligence agencies provided the correct information. A
nuclear program did not exist. A chemical and biological program did not exist.
Al Qaeda was not in Iraq. There was no missile program capable of reaching the
United States.
All these facts were provided by our intelligence services. Bush
covered up the facts and lied about going to war. Bush is not an innocent
victim of bad intelligence. Bush covered up and lied the American people and
the Congress into war and that is why he is a war criminal.
Many of our military commanders are guilty of war crimes as well
because they did not control their troops and thousands of men, women and
children were killed by our undisciplined military secure in the knowledge
there would never be consequences for their crimes.
The root of many PTSD claims resulting from the war is the
extreme guilt our soldiers suffer as a result of their acts of murder. Instead
of giving these criminals an excuse for their crimes, getting counseling and a
monthly check, these modern day war criminals should be put in jail.
So, enough of that!
It doesn't
matter if a Republican or Democrat replaces Scalia. There is almost a 90%
chance whoever it is, that person will be more neutral in their rulings and act
more like a impartial judge, as it should be. Scalia was a Conservative,
Republican hack, more in the vain of Ted Cruz, than a neutral judge. Good
riddance to Scalia the demagogue.
Scalia, the
man who wrote the majority opinion as to why Florida should not count all the
votes, making George W. Bush President. The legitimate President, elected by
American voters, Al Gore, did not become President of the United States.
Because of Scalia and people like him, the course of history was changed
forever.
All the bad
things going on today in Iraq and Syria can be traced back to the day Scalia
made George Bush President. There may not be a Hell, for all we know but Scalia
helped to create Hell on earth. You people who supported him, you reap what you
sow.
Years ago (and I mean "years
ago") my aunt self-inflicted an abortion in her bathtub and bled to death
in an ambulance while it
searched for a hospital with an empty bed. There were
so many self-inflicted abortions resulting in emergencies the hospitals were
turning away women because there was not enough room.
I was only about five years old (my
brothers were much younger and probably don't remember) but I remember the
event very well. One of my earliest memories. It was 100% illegal at the time
but the prohibition did nothing to stem women from aborting their babies. There
was also a big industry of quacks infecting women with back alley abortions. It
was an epidemic.
It's a shame women do this but in
all parts of the world, for all the history of mankind, women have self-aborted
regardless of religious taboo or laws enacted. Today, the number of Muslim
women dying from self-inflicted abortions is horrific. Religion is killing
Muslim women in many different ways.
Religion is killing American women
as well. Just another example demonstrating how little difference there is
between Christians and Muslims.
Congratulations to Bernie Sanders. There is nothing wrong
with his progressive message. The problem is with his followers. Far too many
republican plants within the BurnBots.
I would hope
Hillary will listen to the progressive messages of both Bernie and Elizabeth. I
think she has already but you can't tell a BurnBot that because they are so
focused on the single issue of Wall Street. True 99'ers. That's good. I’m a big
supporter of the 99’er movement.
I'm sure the
BurnBots are ecstatic with the win in New Hampshire but I was looking at the
total delegate count and it shows Hillary with 392 delegates and Bernie with
42.
That story is not
being reported and the BurnBots are ignoring it.
Within the next
couple of weeks Hillary could have more than a 1,000 delegates and Bernie will
still be under 100. That is a reality all Democrats must grapple with. We must
start coming together.
Hillary's real
strength is coming up very soon. I predict Bernie will endorse Hillary in about
a month or he will become a spoiler like Ross Perot and go independent. If he goes independent, Democrats
will lose the White House.
The only thing
worse than a bad loser is a bad winner. Honor Bernie and his
BurnBots when they are vanquished. The party of hate (Republicans) is gathering
their forces and they will be unified.
The party of
Hate? Yea, I’m afraid so. When was the last time any Republican advocated for anything that helps people? Almost everything Republicans advocate, ultimately harms Americans and benefits just a few.
Getting rid of healthcare for twenty million Americans with no replacement isn’t very people
friendly. Wanting to hand Social Security funds for Wall Street to manage will
eventually harm millions of Americans when the greedy wolves steal everything
for themselves and leave old people living in tent cities. Republicans are not friendly
to common Americans.
It just shows how Republican
hate for Democrats is more powerful than loving Jesus or
themselves. In the
last election their hate for a black liberal Democrat was so strong they were
willing to elect a non-Christian destined for Hell according to their own
religious belief system. It is just amazing to witness.
We will need
Bernie and his followers to defeat the kind of people who support Trump and
Cruz. Bernie and his followers are the good guys. Never forget that.
A lot of good
decent Republicans are good people too, except they have allowed themselves to
hate everything including themselves.
They will flock
to the Polls to defeat a Liberal Democrat and it won’t matter who their
candidate is. They haven’t voted FOR anyone in a very long time.
One theory says Muslims and Christians worship the same God. It
could mean simply that God has many names and many definitions, however, it is
all the same God. Except for the Jews according to some thinkers. Jews don't
believe in the Trinity any more than Muslims do. According to some, Jews don't
worship the same God as Christians do, just like Muslims. Hmmmmmm!
Christians believe God got Mary pregnant by magic and along came
Jesus. Cute story. It's all because fornicating is such a dirty business and
nobody wants to believe Mary got shagged in order to make the pure and sinless
Jesus.
Conception without sex presents a problem though when it goes
head to head with the Trinity. Since Jesus is God, Jesus had to impregnate his
own mother in order to conceive himself. Now that is a thought worth
considering. Let me see. Jesus impregnated his own mother or Muslims and
Christians worship the same God. Which one makes more sense? The one with less
magic is the idea I choose.
Some Bernie supporters have suggested distributing pamphlets to overcome misconceptions about Socialism/Communism. Good idea but I would love to see the reaction from Republicans when those pamphlets are distributed in different places. Can you imagine the reaction when someone tries to distribute pamphlets extolling the virtues of Socialism at public schools?
It will take more than a pamphlet to overcome 50 years of propaganda against Socialism/Communism. Baby boomers remember nuclear drills and hiding under school desks. They recall Nikita Khrushchev pounding a shoe on a desk at the UN promising to bury us. 98,000 died fighting Socialism/Communism in Korea and Vietnam. Memories of 10,000 nuclear weapons threatening to kill all of us, prevail. Boomers are still alive and they vote.
Many have taught their children to fear Socialism. The word, in Republican minds, is not synonymous with a perceived utopia's in Europe. It is still an evil word. Socialist fears defeated Carter, Mondale, Dukakis, Gore, Kerry and it will defeat Bernie.
Fear of Socialism is stronger than racial, gender or sexual orientation fears. Hillary will be accused of being a socialist but she will never call herself a Socialist the way Bernie has. Nobody in America, wanting to be elected to political office, proclaims themselves a Socialist. Bernie is a rare exception. It is still political suicide to embrace that mantra. Being a Socialist won’t come into vogue for another twenty years, if at all.
Fear of Socialism will not subside until the Baby Boomers die off and disappear from the political scene. Until then, Bernie Sanders is a lightning rod guaranteeing a political victory for Republican Fascists. Nothing will bring out more Republicans to vote than the fear of Socialism. It’s just a simple fact of modern day America.
The fear of Socialism has its roots in the Cold War days and there is validity in those fears. However, the Cold War has been over for a while. Yet the fears so carefully manufactured in the Cold War years still persist.
Home defense is quite simple. Buy a revolver, tuck it under your
mattress, and wait for the one in a million chance someone will break into your
house when you are present. Then you get to kill someone. Your kid can still
find the gun and shoot you or his little sister. If you get depressed, you can
still blow your brains out because that only takes one shot. If you beat up
your wife, she can get the gun and kill you. Home defense is really simple.
What's not so simple is your desire to own an assault rifle,
with a large capacity magazine so you can kill officers of the law or members
of the military. It is equally unnerving that you think the day will come when
you will have to kill fellow Americans because you disagree with some of them.
In other words, your desire to own military style weapons goes way beyond home
defense. It’s more rooted in your paranoia.
It is also disturbing if you are plotting and planning to
overthrow our government. Wanting to kill fellow Americans and overthrow our
government is sufficient cause to subject you to a psychological evaluation and
determine if you are a danger to yourself and to others. Maybe you shouldn't be
allowed to own a BB gun, let alone an assault rifle.
The point is, this gun thing has gone way overboard. I am not
comfortable with marginal personalities running around with assault rifles when
I am with people I love. I am not armed and I have a right to feel secure in my
surroundings without worrying about a stranger, dressed up in a paramilitary
outfit, opening up full automatic and killing me or my loved ones by accident.
It happens all the time.
Considering how strange and mentally challenged a lot of these
gun nuts are, the chances are pretty good one will go crazy if someone provokes
him in some way. There is a simple rule in play. More guns, mean more gun
deaths. More crazy people with guns, mean more gun deaths.
Especially if those guns are in the hands of anyone who wants
one. Anyone with a bad attitude. Anyone with a short fuse. Anyone fresh from an
argument with their wife. Anyone who decides it might be fun to kill some
innocent people. Plenty of that going around.
Complaining about corporate practices to maximize profits and
screw the American worker then blaming the government is misguided. Will Obama
make you happy if you can have a full time job for $2.00 an hour? A Republican
will let that happen. A Democrat won’t.
All you do is blame the government for what corporations are
doing to you. Screwing the American worker in order to increase profits is what
corporations do. American companies screw Chinese labor for increased profit
and they won't be satisfied until they can do the same to American labor.
When labor costs get as low as what the Chinese are paid,
manufacturing will come back to America. I'm sure if you were paid like a
Chinese coolly, you would be trying to blame the government as well.
It's not Obama's fault if corporations want to lower your wages,
eliminate your lunch hour, deny health coverage, get rid of work place safety
regulations and not pay unemployment insurance so when you get discarded, there
is no safety net.
It's not Obama's fault if corporations pay you so little you
have to go on welfare to feed yourself and lean on the American tax payer to
subsidize the wage you’re not getting from corporations. It's not Obama's fault
corporate greed prevents you from making a living.
You have been manipulated into an unwarranted love of
corporations. Corporations don't love you. Corporations will screw you every
time. Corporations will bribe government officials, who are supposed to protect
you, into allowing corporations to use you and discard you when it suits them.
You know, something like the Chinese labor market.
Government is the only entity capable of protecting you from the
abuses of big business. Corporations have successfully made you believe they
are good and government is bad. Unions are bad and they are good. Low wages, no
benefits and no protections is good and anyone trying to prevent these things
from happening is bad.
Nobody else will help you from the ravages of greedy profit
seeking corporations whose only obligation is to their shareholders. American
corporate shareholders are oblivious to the abuses practiced by their company
on millions of workers in foreign countries.
As long as the shareholder gets their dividend check, they could
care less if some twelve-year-old kid in the Philippines is working twelve
hours a day for fifty cents an hour in a sweatshop with no breaks. American
corporations, will do that to you and the only protection you have is your
government. Assuming of course your government isn't bribed to allow excessive
corporate greed.
A lot of you people need to get your act together. Your anger
towards the government is misguided. The government is trying to help and
protect you and all you can do is blame Obama and the government for the things
corporations are doing to you. You people need to stop being so easy to
manipulate by corporations and stop your unwarranted love of an entity whose
sole purpose is to maximize their profits at your expense.
Can’t you see unregulated corporations are trying to turn us
into China and they are doing it with your help?
