    Just saw this, any truth to it? I only know about Menendez. 

    C'mon Mcgruff! You're better than this. Nice bunch of rips on us MN folk though I see. We were the only state that will probably see a DFL house seat go R, and maybe 2 with one still too close to call.
    (psst...most probably don't know what "DFL" means)

    As for the poster:
    • Starting off with the hyperbolic "IQ lower than a salamander" sort of sucks the legitimacy out of that one.  Age-motivated at best.  Ethnicity motivated at worst.
    • I don't know much about Menendez.
    • The other two are Muslims from Minnesota and as far as I can tell they are being accused of being anti-semetic and/or America-hating because they are Muslims.  Nothing but a xenophobic smear. That said, Keith Ellison (right) was just elected secretary of state and was accused of abusing a former girlfriend.
    That's all I needed to know.  Thanks for explaining the two on the right in an educated manner without attempting to throw insults.  I do appreciate it.  (menendez is a pos by the way)
    You post that garbage and then talk about "educated manner". Haha
    Well from what I found it seems like the congresswoman did make some alleged anti Semitic comments a few years ago. 
    She either made anti-Semitic comments or she didn't. She can't have made "alleged" comments. And no, unless a person thinks that speaking against Israel = antisemitism, which I assume we all know is ridiculous, she did not make any anti-Semitic comments as far as we know... That doesn't necessarily mean she isn't antisemitic of course. I have no idea if she is or isn't. I certainly hope not. She sure isn't going to fit into her new job very well if she is.
    i think he means they were allegedly anti-semitic, not that they were allegedly said. 
    Darwinspeed, all.

    For the record, criticizing or being anti-Israel is not the same as anti-Semitic.  There are plenty of progressive Jews who are highly critical of Israel's policies and Zionism.  Is it true that anyone that is anti-Semitic is also anti-Israel?  Likely.  But the inverse is not always true.

    It'd really be great if we all gave critical thinking the ole college try more consistently.

    And she was referencing a particular incident. So she was opposed to Israel's actions.Which, if I'm not wrong, is perfectly acceptable.  In any  case, it's a stretch. And the origin of the meme itself is still unknown.

    Definitely a stretch but now I see where the meme ordinated from. 
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    any time you criticize the israeli government, someone comes out of the woodwork accusing you of being anti semitic.

    I think the meme opening with suggesting someone's "IQ was less than a salamander" should be grounds to assume that it is folly and ignore it from the getgo.  That's just me though.  
    he already stated he was not asking about that one. 
     or influence a vote that was cast as "not Hillary."
    To be fair, she did that on her own lol
    No she did not.
    She was an extremely qualified candidate that got millions more votes than Trump did but, just as with Pelosi, portions of this country detest powerful women. 
    I call bullshit. I say she would have gotten less votes if she was a man. The only thing that caused enthusiasm surrounding her campsign was the fact she was a woman, and wasnt THAT guy lol

    She didnt lose because of sexism. 

    See what i mean. Its always racism, sexism, whateverism. Its bullshit in my opinion. Own the loss

    Was it sexism that kept her from going to the purple midwest and rust belt? 
    I am tired of this. Play with someone else. And please....say that I didn't answer because I know you are right or some other self serving comment.    It is getting tiresome. 
    You have some weird beef with me, not sure why... but whatever. People are going to disagree with you, hate to be rude, but get over it, it's nothing personal
    I know why man, and the beef isn't at all weird or surprising, and it's not because you disagree with her or anyone else. You keep saying that, but that really isn't it. It's because of how you're making your points. Your tone and comments are condescending in the extreme, like way more so than everyone else here when they're being condescending, lol (I know you don't think so). People tend to react really negatively to that, and naturally do tend to take it personally. I'm not trying to make a conversation out of it or convince you to do or not do anything. I'm just letting you know why you're getting some of the reactions that you are. It's not the reason you seem to think.
    When you go against the stream in here you get jumped on by a gang and have to defend yourself, sometimes people take it the wrong way. 

    My whole point is dont become elitist name-calling assholes that blanket stereotypes the other side and doesn't listen. Some people got their feathers ruffled because of it. Oh well.

    And frankly, it gets a little old hearing from a bunch of Canadians everyday that my country is horrible and full of morons, racists, sexists, etc, etc, etc. The bullshit anti-America steteotyoes get regurgitated ad-nauseum by the same fucking people over and over and over in here (Speaking of condescending elitists). That goes for the Swede too, ABBA blows homie. There are assholes everywhere, we are humans. We are no better or worse than you. Get over yourselves.

    Peace, love, and hair grease.

    No surrender. No retreat.

    And frankly, it gets a little old hearing from a bunch of Canadians everyday that my country is horrible and full of morons, racists, sexists, etc, etc, etc. The bullshit anti-America steteotyoes get regurgitated ad-nauseum by the same fucking people over and over and over in here (Speaking of condescending elitists). That goes for the Swede too, ABBA blows homie. There are assholes everywhere, we are humans. We are no better or worse than you. Get over yourselves.

    Peace, love, and hair grease.

    No surrender. No retreat
    Wait for it

    I think the meme opening with suggesting someone's "IQ was less than a salamander" should be grounds to assume that it is folly and ignore it from the getgo.  That's just me though.  
    he already stated he was not asking about that one. 
     or influence a vote that was cast as "not Hillary."
    To be fair, she did that on her own lol
    No she did not.
    She was an extremely qualified candidate that got millions more votes than Trump did but, just as with Pelosi, portions of this country detest powerful women. 
    I call bullshit. I say she would have gotten less votes if she was a man. The only thing that caused enthusiasm surrounding her campsign was the fact she was a woman, and wasnt THAT guy lol

    She didnt lose because of sexism. 

    See what i mean. Its always racism, sexism, whateverism. Its bullshit in my opinion. Own the loss

    Was it sexism that kept her from going to the purple midwest and rust belt? 
    I am tired of this. Play with someone else. And please....say that I didn't answer because I know you are right or some other self serving comment.    It is getting tiresome. 
    You have some weird beef with me, not sure why... but whatever. People are going to disagree with you, hate to be rude, but get over it, it's nothing personal
    I know why man, and the beef isn't at all weird or surprising, and it's not because you disagree with her or anyone else. You keep saying that, but that really isn't it. It's because of how you're making your points. Your tone and comments are condescending in the extreme, like way more so than everyone else here when they're being condescending, lol (I know you don't think so). People tend to react really negatively to that, and naturally do tend to take it personally. I'm not trying to make a conversation out of it or convince you to do or not do anything. I'm just letting you know why you're getting some of the reactions that you are. It's not the reason you seem to think.
    When you go against the stream in here you get jumped on by a gang and have to defend yourself, sometimes people take it the wrong way.

    This seems a little different than what you are suggesting:

    According to the AP, Barron also said that the problems were partially the result of a federal judge’s prior ruling to sequester 700 of the county’s voting machines. The county only has 40 spare machines.

    Who requested the machines be sequestered and for what purpose? And were the remaining machines evenly distributed and if so, on time, ready to go upon poll opening? Some people waited 5 hours in line to vote. Reprehensible.

    Who requested the machines be sequestered and for what purpose? And were the remaining machines evenly distributed and if so, on time, ready to go upon poll opening? Some people waited 5 hours in line to vote. Reprehensible.

    The machines were sequestered by local officials because of an ongoing federal lawsuit that argues Georgia’s electronic voting machines could be hacked or tampered with.

    With fewer machines in precincts, voters faced heavy delays, often more than an hour, before they got to the front of the line. The issue affected voters in Cobb, DeKalb and Fulton counties, the three jurisdictions covered by the court case.

    Election officials said Wednesday that the lack of voting machines — combined with high turnout and wordy constitutional amendments — created some of the longest lines in years. They said that by the time they realized turnout would significantly exceed the last midterm election, there wasn’t time to find additional machines.

    I know this fits a narrative that you like but I think the sad part is that this is a bigger issue.  it tells me that the voting public doesn't know much and I will bet the reason this guy won was based solely that he had an R beside his name.  now you can blame the democrats if you like but for me its a sad thing
