the canadian dollar is worth .75 of the american dollar. yup he's nailing it
Dumbest comment on the boards today. Bravo. Know why the loonie fell? Because Stephen Harper made Canada's economy way too dependent on oil and didn't diversify enough, like the jackass with no foresight that he is.
I can't believe...or I guess I can...that Hillary used a child actor to ask her a question in Pennsylvania. What the hell is wrong with her and her campaign? Shit like this is just so unnecessary.
Source? Let me guess....infowars? zerohedge? Drudge?
Multiple sources...linked you a page below that has them all linked as you go through it. You can deny this if you want but then you become someone who is just running cover Hillary always and all the time. I criticize Trump plenty so it shouldn't be hard to look at this and the Steve Harvey interview and say...."I like Hillary but why does her campaign have to do shit like this all the time".
wait what? most of the people at these events are invited by the parties. it's a rally for a particular candidate not a free for all. are we really surprised a local politician and his family where there? i know there is a lot of dislike for hillary but wtf? really, this is the best shit people can come up with this week? fuck i guess she would have been better off calling the girl a ms piggy
That was my first thought when I heard it on Hannity yesterday. Really? This is an issue?
I think it's an issue for conservatives because they know it was a damn good question that will really resonate with young mothers and bigger women.
You guys have all lost it. Really. Zero ability for anybody on here to criticize the phoniness of it all. It isn't about destroying the girl or about even whether it's a good question. The point is that this whole thing is a massive charade and you all swallow it down to defeat a greater evil. Whatever happened to the days of hope and change. So amazed how this forum turned into robot city. Not a free thinker left in the bunch.
You can't be foolish enough to think that political chicanery just started with the Clinton campaign or Democrats. It goes back to the Greeks. Aren't you the one that is foolish and naive to think that phoniness is recent?
Of course not but cameras and google capture this shit all the time now. Again I am amazed that none of you demand better. You all have the same critique..."who cares?", "it's been happening forever!", "you don't know politics". Faith in government and government institutions is at an all time low. Faith in media is at an all time low. The two candidates have brutal honest and trustworthy numbers and yet this shit continues. Do you all have such a low opinion of Hilary that you don't think she can handle organic questions? She is on her way to victory and you are setting the table for an administration will have blown off all sorts of accountability issues. I know you don't care one iota about the thoughts and feelings of the deplorables but you will want your next leader to improve those faith in government numbers immediately just for the overall health of your nation. That will be very difficult if you all continue to brush off the phonyness.
Everything you say is accurate if we were talking about an issue with relevance. Accountability, demand better, faith in government, sure I agree with all of this, but not as it relates to something as meaningless as the daughter of a politician asking a question in the audience. I think your reaction here is overblown for the specific issue. Nice work by the Jays. Your boys and my Tribe are on a collision course.

Don't you think you are coming off as a little bit of an SJW on this one? Don't conservatives always argue for perspective, context, etc.?
The media creates the charade. They're not going to end it when their consumers endlessly recycle their stories by sharing the links, re-tweeting, posting, etc. That's how they make their money, for God's sake. Why would they stop reporting the way they do when their current model is making them filthy rich?
Just like with the clown story. The police have asked the public to quit sharing the threats because 1. It makes it almost impossible for them to get to the real source 2. It creates unnecessary hysteria That's what I've seen as the major themes in this campaign. Mass hysteria. People saying shit but having no idea where it came from.
The election of either candidate is not going to stop that when we have an entire nation scientifically proven to be addicted to their devices and the rush of adrenaline they get when they click the buttons. Heck, we have members of this thread who think that with every link they share, they are going to take down our current system of government. That is some really interesting thinking, to say the least.

I don't think so. On the actual staged event I think I am bang on. Where I might be coming off as an SJW is my reaction to all of your willingness to brush this staging off as a no biggie. I disagree with so many on here politically but at the root I thought there were a lot of idealists on these boards. I wasn't looking for replies to my initial post on the subject but I was pretty surprised that not one person said "I support Hillary but yeah...why do they find it necessary to always do this?". Instead I'm getting snopes articles. Does everybody have to defend their candidate everyday and all the time? You don't see me cheering for Melvin Upton Jr. just because he homered in Game 1! He sucks and should never ever play!

Every candidate has a durable floor of support. Basically no matter what they do, the votes are locked. Hillary's is probably 43/44%. I was thinking Trumps was about 40%. He is close to that now. I am very curious to see if Trump can consistently shatter down into the 30's. If this doesn't do it, then he literally could shoot someone in Times Square and get away with it.

I'm not so sure yet he's going to lose much support from Joe Public. My sister-in-law, a Trump voter, told me last weekend that what upsets her the most is that the "establishment" is abandoning party voters who chose Trump. She feels that if the party voters picked Trump, the leaders need to honor their wish. Time will tell how many feel the same way. At best, I predict Trump will lose votes because people stay home, not because people will switch candidates.
Aside: my sister-in-law is a really good person. Misguided maybe, or guided by her small business owning perspective, but not a Trump stereotype. She's actually a Trump voter I can listen to.

Check back in with us and let us know if this changes anything with your sis in law. I think the net result won't be voters going from Trump to Hillary. It certainly can't help him with undecided voters (how are there any of those??), but maybe more importantly is how it hurts the 'get out the vote' effort for the % of non-motivated voters that make up his total. For example, if your sister is towing the party line, rather than a passionate Trump person, is she as motivated to go on election day?
Trump is a creep, but no Hillary voter on here seems to care that Hillary told the big banks she has a "public and private policy position"? A woman who tears apart other women's lives because her husband was done with them and lies to the American public about her policy positions is fit to be president? Congrats. You got yourselves into this position by blindly pushing for the first woman president. The country was ready for it but unfortunately you picked a horrible person to be that first one.

as most claim around here, she's a true progressive. You obviously don't get your news from C-span

Yes, I do wonder what she will say in response to current events. I predict she will be disgusted, but I also think she will still vote for him. As a voter, she is highly motivated by tax policy.
I think voter turn out is going to be low for both candidates, though. I have no data point to confirm that hunch, but I will be canvassing Fairfax Democrats the final two weekends before the election to get the vote out. I'm curious to hear what people say. (They wanted me to take the 9 AM shift on a Sunday, and I said no way am I knocking on voters' doors at 9 AM. Hahaha)

People are not going to vote because you've got the two most unlikable and unpopular candidates in history.
Honestly, all four have some serious flaws. How about just skipping the Presidential choice and voting for legitimate down ballot officials. Getting good people into politics is a good place to start.
Trump said he could shoot someone and not lose any votes but Hillary is looking like the one who actually could do just that. She remains a terrible candidate but it doesn't matter. It never has. She will be President.
We are ALL guilty in creating this mess. No self-respecting person would put themselves through what we put our candidates through.
Please, step right up. Let's see if you are presidential material. Post your medical records, your tax records, your divorce papers, your college transcripts right here on this thread. Let us all judge your private flaws and then share the links all over the Internet. Send me a picture so I can create an ugly meme with your face on it and share it all over social media. Give me your email and IP address so I can hire a hacker and create a wiki with every shitty thing you've said over the years. Hmmm, give me a list of your associates so I can get them interviewed on TV about what a dick you are.
None of us would volunteer for that. Yet just about ALL of us consume it and perpetuate it with our actions.
So who in the world do we think will run for office under these conditions? You're surprised that our politicians are narcissistic sociopaths when WE have created an environment where only seriously disordered people thrive? When the whole world is bent on destroying your reputation, that's what it takes. Candidates who are so ambitious they don't care what others think of them.
I have character. . . But there is no way I would open myself up to the facts of my imperfect life for public consumption. Who here would? Lay it out there if you're willing.
Orherwise, you can't have it both ways. You can't spend your entire purpose as a voter tearing down candidates and then expect other people to volunteer for it when you yourself never would.
Trump said he could shoot someone and not lose any votes but Hillary is looking like the one who actually could do just that. She remains a terrible candidate but it doesn't matter. It never has. She will be President.
Of course she will, she has the Gruber voters and is owned by the real operators of the United States, the banks.
I'm really starting to believe that we to enact standards on voting based on these two candidates.
That sounds Constitutional.
It's in there, right next to gun control.
Harper v Virginia re: the Equal Protection Clause explicitly declares poll taxes unconstitutional (literacy tests, etc.) By contrast, D.C vs Heller, while allowing gun ownership in the District, explicitly states that gun ownership is NOT unlimited.
It's a bitch when the facts get in the way. Our system of laws is a total bitch.

You know Gruber isn't even a word. Gratuitous insults might be more effective if they make sense. BTW - I've worked in banking and finance for 20 years. Sounds like this is all good news for me. As a disciple of Ayn Rand, I'm sure you wish you were one of us since we're the operators.

Nice work by the Jays. Your boys and my Tribe are on a collision course.
Now as per above I totally agree it is meaningless but my point is that it is these stupid small things that lead to worse behaviour in other areas. Call it a version of the so called "broken window theory". If the media doesn't call out the charade now then you will get bigger charades later.
Go Jays Go.
Go Tribe.
Just like with the clown story. The police have asked the public to quit sharing the threats because
1. It makes it almost impossible for them to get to the real source
2. It creates unnecessary hysteria
That's what I've seen as the major themes in this campaign. Mass hysteria. People saying shit but having no idea where it came from.
The election of either candidate is not going to stop that when we have an entire nation scientifically proven to be addicted to their devices and the rush of adrenaline they get when they click the buttons. Heck, we have members of this thread who think that with every link they share, they are going to take down our current system of government. That is some really interesting thinking, to say the least.
Aside: my sister-in-law is a really good person. Misguided maybe, or guided by her small business owning perspective, but not a Trump stereotype. She's actually a Trump voter I can listen to.

as most claim around here, she's a true progressive.
You obviously don't get your news from C-span
I think voter turn out is going to be low for both candidates, though. I have no data point to confirm that hunch, but I will be canvassing Fairfax Democrats the final two weekends before the election to get the vote out. I'm curious to hear what people say. (They wanted me to take the 9 AM shift on a Sunday, and I said no way am I knocking on voters' doors at 9 AM. Hahaha)

But seriously. We have two garbage candidates. How do I make a smart choice?

Please, step right up. Let's see if you are presidential material. Post your medical records, your tax records, your divorce papers, your college transcripts right here on this thread. Let us all judge your private flaws and then share the links all over the Internet. Send me a picture so I can create an ugly meme with your face on it and share it all over social media. Give me your email and IP address so I can hire a hacker and create a wiki with every shitty thing you've said over the years. Hmmm, give me a list of your associates so I can get them interviewed on TV about what a dick you are.
None of us would volunteer for that. Yet just about ALL of us consume it and perpetuate it with our actions.
So who in the world do we think will run for office under these conditions? You're surprised that our politicians are narcissistic sociopaths when WE have created an environment where only seriously disordered people thrive? When the whole world is bent on destroying your reputation, that's what it takes. Candidates who are so ambitious they don't care what others think of them.
I have character. . . But there is no way I would open myself up to the facts of my imperfect life for public consumption. Who here would? Lay it out there if you're willing.
Orherwise, you can't have it both ways. You can't spend your entire purpose as a voter tearing down candidates and then expect other people to volunteer for it when you yourself never would.
How many times must it be said? Actions speak louder than words. DT said bad things! HRC threatened me after BC raped me.
Isn't that how the saying goes?
It's a bitch when the facts get in the way. Our system of laws is a total bitch.
BTW - I've worked in banking and finance for 20 years. Sounds like this is all good news for me. As a disciple of Ayn Rand, I'm sure you wish you were one of us since we're the operators.
