    Yeah, the Democratic party will be united right up until their contested convention.

    The Koch brothers are Libertarians. They are not ultra-conservative, if anything they are liberal.

    Really, I would. It would have been easier for you to just list a couple of them than post that ridiculous rant. If they actually exist, that is.

    I don't remember any of that happening. Obama never even tried, only talked about it. Therefor congress never blocked him, particularly from 2009-11.

    Hmm, I'm self-employed, don't have a lot of money, and my insurance has more than doubled in price since 2012. Thankfully I still have a grandfathered pre-ACA plan. If I were buying on the exchange it would be much more expensive.

    Hillary may have experience, but time and time again she has shown that she has marginal political skills at best. Two cringe-worthy runs for President, and a campaign for the senate that only won because her opponent was more incompetent than she was.

    There was no surge in Afghanistan. Certainly not an Iraq style surge. It was just called a surge to gain political acceptance. If it were an Iraq style surge it would have succeeded.

    I'd like to see some specific examples of Hillary Clinton's competence.

    Just look at how good Hillary's foreign policy record is. I can't even think of a single screw-up. None at all. And certainly no one ever died as a result of her decisions.

    No, Hillary needs 271 electoral votes. If she forgets that she will lose. I have a hard time seeing coal country going for Democrats this year. They've been stabbed in the back while getting fucked in the ass by the modern Democratic party.

    What you are forgetting is that neither Trump or Hillary are a typical candidate.

    The sources to that one are kind of sketchy....But what Hillary did actually do was get the charges against a child rapist dropped on a technicality. That's generally OK. Everyone deserves representation, and mishandling of evidence is a bad thing. The part that shows she is an evil, powerhungry, money whore is the fact that she laughed about it.

    Evil Hillary

    The next thing you should ask yourself is if Progressives are really the best fit to represent blue collar workers in the bottom 2 quintiles of income.

    At least vote for Gary Johnson instead of Sanders. Voting for someone whom you disagree with on just about everything makes no sense.

    Actually, what rally happened is a year of Trump trashing the GOP and even more so his supporters trashing anyone who didn't support Trump.

    Doesn't the vast majority of sea life utilize photosysthesis? Give them more CO2, warmer temperatures, and more sunlight, and they should produce more O2.

    It's not simple. The right to bear arms is enshrined in our constitution as an inalienable civil right. What other rights can be taken away if you are found to be mentally deficient?

  22. Does that disqualify you from voting, getting a lawyer, or speaking as well?

  23. I'll tell you how it works. Some enterprising company makes a cool gun that identifies the owner and locks out everyone else. They do it without grants, loans, or regulatory subsidies. Then i decide if I want to buy it or not. Done.

  24. Right. And clearly no firearms company has ever put safety features on guns.
