You are so right. When we've had a criminal in the White House, the action was swift and decisive: Nixon. Though he was allowed to resign rather than face a trial and prison.

Oh. I totally agree that religion is the bane of mankind's existence, and that extremists of any religion are a dangerous lot to everyone around them. People around the world are getting slaughtered by religious fanatics, Christians included. I just don't see how this particular incident is caused by Christianity.

hum. I am not sure this mass murder can be attributed to Christianity. I'd be more inclined to attribute it to domestic Muslim terrorism aided and abetted by the ease with which a guy like this can get access to the type of weapons needed to kill 50 and wound even more in such a short period of time.

Prove it.

Even here in Washington, a liberal bastion, it was a mess. My own polling place was screwed up. It was at a junior high school that was also having a free hazardous recycle event the very same day. The entire parking lot was roped off. The only parking was on the street. It was in a hilly area. No way could a wheelchair be gotten through there without help. I drove around several times trying to find a spot to park. Two lane road, no shoulder. There were plenty of signs marking where to get to the hazardous waste event but none marking the primary location. If you could even find a parking place, if you parked in the wrong place you could end up walking as much as a mile over hilly terrain and no sidewalks much less shoulder on the road. Well, too bad for older people, disabled people, people with children. If I hadn't been so determined and in good shape, I'd have left without voting. In for a dime, in for a dollar. Sometimes I just get stubborn for the meanness of it. This was one of those times.

But the real kicker is Washington is a winner take all state. Although Bernie won the popular vote, all the super delegates were given to Hillary. What a colossal waste of time.

Ha ha. Yes. Of course. Some cannot stand to be called to task for not thinking logically or having compassion for their fellow human beings.

Here's a long but eminently readable, and dare I say balanced, article on Trump, by Elizabeth Drew, on his unsuitability to hold the highest office in the world. I realize most won't read it as people are pretty much used to sound bites these days, but a thoroughanalysis takes time.

No it's because history shows the economy does better under democrats than republicans.

What a gross reinterpretation of history that you swallowed hook line and sinker. I can't even begin to unravel the twisted version presented here but I'll take a stab at a couple of them. The Republican and Democratic Parties of the nineteenth century switched places over the years. The r****ts moved to the republican side years ago. If you think that the Civil Rights movement and the V****g Rights Act were the result of Democratic Party r****t tactics to garner v**es, you are so cynical as to be comical.

I was convinced for a while that Trump might actually win. I see this was extremely pessimistic. The guy does seem to be imploding in front of our very eyes. His supporters have been reduced to blithering i***ts. A coherent sentence can't be squeezed out of a single one of them. Their tactic is to throw every grade school insult hoping to deflect attention to the fact that there is no there there with Trump. Geez. What a loser.

Social Darwinism kind of twists everything into a rationale for selfishness. This includes the mob being able to dictate when we die. Somehow, the twisted logic prevents people from getting past their greed, prevents them from helping people out of poverty, because it's racist to help people. Who knew? Jesus of the parables certainly didn't. Now that the white middle class has lost its built in safety net because the vulture capitalists came along and removed it in the name of profits, they've stooped to blaming other, even less unfortunate than themselves. They wring their hands over the high suicide, opioid abuse and early death rates of newly impoverished white people whose jobs got shipped overseas. Hey, greedy corporate henchmen and stockholders chose to take advantage of lousy trade agreements and screw these folks out of their ability to make a decent living for their families. Take it like the gun analogy. Just like a gun doesn't up and shoot people on its own, neither does a corporation act in a vacuum. It takes a good politician and a good demagogue like Coulter or Limbaugh to persuade people to turn all that around and blame it all on the poorest of the poor. Hey, even prison teaches us that the lower the stakes, the sharper the knives, but the prisoners do not see it. Their world view is very tiny and they can only see and react to what is in front of them, not realizing, as in Shawshank Redemption or Cool Hand Luke, that they are being manipulated into enforcing the warden's agenda.

Do not dismiss hanging chads, gerrymandering, labyrinthine primaries whose rules vary from state to state, ratfucking, smear campaigns, MSM pretty much manipulating the election news for profit, that nasty little DWSchultz pushing Hillary and denying resources to Bernie. Yes both sides. If people don't think the democrats have a problem they're deluding themselves. The entire system reeks from top to bottom.

And ignorant conservatives are already setting up to blame everything and everyone except their own bankrupt party and ideologies for Clinton's win. They are going to go nuts when she wins. We ain't seen nothing yet. The way they've treated Obama the last eight years will look like a cakewalk compared to what's in store for Hillary. Not to say that she's all that squeaky clean. I am not a Hillary supporter by any stretch. She never met a war she didn't support. What has the warmongering we've done the last ten years accomplished? Nothing.

Is that all you can come up with? A couple of grade school insults? How about using a little logic and some writing sk**ls to rebut what the guy wrote? No wonder Trump is losing. If any of the rest of his supporters are mouthbreathers like you, Hillary will achieve a slam dunk.

Well, and Clintonites are setting up the Bernie bros for blame if she loses. Just like the dems did when Gore lost to Bush. Besides the FRAUD, the fact is Gore led a lackluster campaign. But many blamed Nader for Gore's loss. Bullshit.

You're right. I still think Hillary is the better option than Trump. Better the devil you know... The people have spoken. Or at least they've spoken through the corrupt election systems we've got, and they said they don't want anything to be any different. If anyone thinks Trump isn't the reincarnation of Reagan, who was an unmitigated disaster, they've got another thing coming. It's all status quo, with a little reality TV thrown in the mix.
