    As usual my typing did not relay my point accurately. Sure, if someone does their research, truly looks into all available candidates and then decides not one of the parties is worthy of his or her vote then go ahead and sit it out. But, if all that person did was read the headlines and tweets and never votes just to be able to say, "Not my fault, I didn't vote for them", that person is, in my eyes, a waste. Now granted my view on this one particular poster is slanted by many of their previous useless posts but I can pretty much guarantee that Jetfannerd did not bother to research anything beyond the headlines.

    I'm really not convinced that Trump really wants to win.

    I'm starting to think Trump is the ultimate "manchurian candidate".

    I did laugh out loud about the phrase - "impoverished the citizenry's Constitutional safeguards"

    isn't she saying "we aren't going to raise taxes on the middle class"? not are.

    It sounds like it and either way I mean who would say we "are" anyway?

    hmm - maybe she is? But why say that? The only one who wanted to raises taxes on the middle class was bernie.

    I thought he was saying that candidates have gotten progressively worse and that, if we didn't draw a line eventually, the candidates in future elections would be equivalent to Mussolini and Hitler. But maybe i just read it too carefully

    Obviously my point is you have to draw the line somewhere. You have a candidate who is the most unabashed liar not just in politics but of almost anyone I've ever encountered vs a guy who doesn't know what the nuclear triad is.

    We're past the point where traditional lesser of two evils discussion makes sense

    That's not what she said at all. She said : "We AREN'T gonna raise taxes on the middle class".

    yea BN said that, and I hear it now that it's been mentioned. But why say it? Bernie isn't running anymore. It just doesn't make sense.

    the (isolated) high falutin wording aside, the point that you took out of context was that Americans have been dancing to this bogus "lesser of two evils" tune for generations, and as a result their Constitutional armor has taken a hit for the worse. Since you're a "politicians-are-rock-stars" kind of guy your mileage is obviously going to vary - your prerogative.


    I happily contribute to society - hey, those entitlement programs for the kin folk don't pay for themselves.
    Speaking of which, how's the (you-know-who) Obamacare leech doing? . : )

    It had been a while since deathstar dropped in with one of his strawman arguments

    Maybe him and big boner are on the rocks

    I'm sure she didn't want her intentions misunderstood considering her "trust" issues that exist already. She has no room to be vague on anything.

    Well, considering virtually every word out of her mouth is a lie we might have been better off if she said she was.

    I've never seen such a pretentious poster on a message board. And he only sticks to political threads like a peacock.
