    No people believe if a government paid scientist does it it's automatically science. All those other scientists are just corporate and profit driven shills. Only someone who gets paid with other people's money can be virtuous.

    You don't look very good here.

  4. It only looked like he had a chance to people who were completely incorrect in their interpretation of the race. He never actually had a chance.

  5. He was just slightly less dreadful than the candidate the Dems put forward.

  6. Clearly Hillary Clinton is the worst Presidential candidate in your life time because she lost to Trump.

  7. So in other words, about half of the BLM movement.

  8. So he was disbarred for a crime he didn't commit. Got it.

  9. Bill Clinton committed the same crime that Scooter Libby and Martha Stewart were sentenced to prison time for committing. Stop pretending like he didn't do anything wrong.

    Hopefully he just leaves it in the pockets of the people who earned it.

    He's not talking about flushing the legislative chambers. He's talking about flushing the federal government. I hope he starts with a shit ton of firings at the IRS, the DOJ, and the VA.

    Lots of people are saying black people lack the ability to get identification. It's one of the glaring instances of racism perpetrated by Democrats.

    Just give me a gimmick free phone. I want blazing fast hardware, as much battery life as possible, a good looking screen, and I don't want it to break if I look at it the wrong way.

    Huh. Obama won in 2008 with 52% of the vote. Do you feel the same way about that?

  16. Agreed. People who use Sweden as a shining example of successful Socialism generally are regurgitating propaganda that has no basis in reality.

  17. McFly? The State Department doesn't have the power to conduct criminal investigations. They certainly were engaged in an investigation. The biggest problem with your statement is that the information was passed to the Clinton campaign not only by hacks at State, but by Peter Kadzik who is an Assistant Attorney General in the Department of Justice

    "Separately, assistant attorney general Peter Kadzik wrote to Podesta in May 2015 to offer a "heads up" that a Justice Department official would be testifying before the House Judiciary Committee and would likely "get questions on State Department emails." Podesta forwarded the message to top campaign staff, writing: "Additional chances for mischief.""

  18. The term may come from the alt-right, but like I said they are defined by the left.

  19. I think you mistake my position. I'm saying it's the free market and liberal (not progressive) reforms that have made Sweden what it is today. Not socialism.

    I hope if you ever find yourself under criminal investigation while running for office, that the investigating agency provides you with inside information advantageous to your campaign as well. Totally normal stuff.

    If you were the subject of a criminal investigation by a government entity, do you see it as ok for them to secretly communicate positions and statements to you before they are released to the public. Do you rally think its ok for an investigator to do this with the subject of the investigation?

    Why is the State Department forwarding information to a non-governmental person before they release it to the public? You don't see anything wrong with that? Even worse that this person is a poltical candidate, and the State Department is not supposed to engage in political activity.

    Hmm. Sweden. Low federal and corporate income taxes. No estate tax. Liberal and free trade policy. A lot of the reforms they have instituted in the last several decades have paid huge dividends. Maybe we should try to emulate them more.
