For you, maybe. For others, it definitely is. There was a convention of Christians recently where Donald Trump's candidacy was hotly debated. One group said that since God let Trump win the Republican nomination, that was the sign that God wanted them to vote for Trump whatever his faults. Another group said that God was testing their strength to stand up to an unrighteous man. There were fairly prominent individuals in both groups.
I'm sure Climate Change is a religious issue for people like that.
She was speaking specifically about the period of NATO military intervention. Why did you misrepresent her remarks?
I actually think Clinton isn't quite smart enough, and is a bit too old to be President, but she's younger and smarter than Trump. We've survived pretty well some dumb presidents, but nobody as far down the ladder as Donald.
The American Revolution was funded by wealthy individuals
On the one hand, the American Revolution was also lead by philosophers, scientists, judges, generals, etc. These guys had some ideas about how to create a better system than what they inherited.
On the other hand, you have Donald Trump. His philosophical concept of government is that "Only I can fix it" and "All you need to know is that I'll take care of it. Don't worry about." "There's going to be so much winning." etc. Luckey and Thiel should be so proud.
Dick Cheney is also dumb. Gen Schwarzkopf reports in his memoir that Cheney put forth a plan to drop an airborne division in Western Iraq to take a town and hold it hostage until Saddam left Kuwait. Cheney kept pushing this plan after Schwarzkopf rejected it several times as unworkable. This sort of thoughtless bravado is typical of both Cheney and Trump.
"Besides that, I’ve got to tell you something else. I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not something they can control. Don’t you agree?"
-- Donald Trump
Trump also wanted to cooler evaluate NATO commitments before taking action
He also wants the option to refuse to defend countries which are already in NATO. He, and apparently you, don't understand what NATO is for. It is not a defense cost sharing club. It's a keep Europe Out of War police agency. You can coolly evaluate it, start to change it, or even start to withdraw from it. What you can't do is just drop it.
He's suggestion that we withdraw our nuclear umbrella from our East Asian allies is equally stupid. The guy is an utter moron when it comes to foreign affairs. Our adversaries will eat our lunch if he is elected. He might be Dick Cheney level stupid.
Blumenthal denies this. The article says that McClatchy dispatched a reporter to Kenya to check on Blumenthal's claim even though in the editor's words, Blumenthal had no evidence. Do you find that believable?
The whole birther campaign was a lie. Did Donald ever send investigators to Hawaii? Kenya? What were the amazing things he said they found? How come he thought this was important even though Obama would still have been a US citizen if he had been born in Kenya? This alone should disqualify him. Electing him would be akin to electing a 9/11 truther, not the good kind of truther, the kind who thinks the Jews did it.
His claim to have put it to rest was a lie. His claim that Clinton started it was a lie.
His claim to have been against the Iraq war. A lie.
Donald lies about why he can't release tax forms. An IRS audit does not prevent public release.
He pretended to be his own publicist. This is the kind of crazy stunt that would have destroyed Hillary if anyone found out.
He frequently denies saying things he clearly said, such as his approval of Japan and South Korea building their own nuclear deterrent. Or that he didn't make some horribly derogatory remark or other, like when he made fun of a disabled reporter.
Donald keeps saying his tax plan will cost him money. It won't.
Even his big policies he's famous for are lies. The Wall is pointless, a huge waste of money. Donald knows this. The Muslim ban, besides being unconstitutional, is also impossible to implement and would have little to no effect on terrorism. Donald knows this too.
There are long transcripts of his many, many court cases where he's forced to retract baseless things he'd said, and they are very revealing. The guy screws up and can't admit it. Can't stop from blaming others. If he overpays for a property, he lies about the cost, etc.
Can you explain how someone could huff and puff about insults and yet support Trump? I think your feeling of offense is feigned.
How's the birther business working out for Donald? First he goes after Obama without any evidence of wrong doing, gets in front of every camera he can find. He never acknowledges the simple fact that even if Obama was born outside the US he would still have been a citizen. He runs with it clear until the after the convention *this year*, still without a shred of evidence, and then when faced with a general public who rightly understand that birtherism is a merely a ploy to gin up the racists, he flip flops. There's no new evidence, he just decided to switch sides.
He peddled a horrible lie for eight years, dropped it when convenient, then he lied about the lie!
This move follows the same template as all of Donald's moves. It doesn't take a fact checking website to figure out he's the worst liar to take the national stage in decades. All you need is to think a little bit, and remember longer than five seconds.
There are a lot of people who get excited about Trump even though they understand his fundamental dishonesty. For some reason they have faith that on that one issue that's important to them, he speaks from the heart. Why they would believe this from someone who pretty much never speaks from the heart is beyond me.
There's no reason to believe they were WMD trucks. There's no evidence at all that more was known about the trucks than what Powell said in the meeting. There are a lot of *stories* that came out from people somewhat near the action, but they are quite varied and often contradictory.
False. Saddam issued a report that he had no WMD program. Afterwards, he allowed UN inspectors free run of the country, including his palaces, without warning.
They did produce evidence. The UN inspectors had free run of the country for several months prior to the war. In their own words, the US evidence was "shit". Of course they found no evidence of an ongoing weapons program, because there was none.
In any case, the US never has produced any real evidence, before or after for their WMD claims.
They had cryptic radio intercepts. They had satellite pictures of trucks leaving buildings. They had unknown chemical processing trucks (turned out to be hydrogen production. The design was known, but not by Powell.). They had aluminum tubes.
Slashdot Mirror
If you pre-order based on hype, you are dumb. Improve yourself.
Yet another slashdotter unsure if scientists have heard of the sun. There's a long, sad chain of them.
Nature will undoubtedly find a new equilibrium, but there's no particular reason that it will include us.

That's the point. The Trump revolution is funded by all sorts of rich guys, but it's lead by Trump.

You call that thinking?
Really? Try telling a Trump supporter that their candidate is racist, or that his hating on Muslims is unAmerican. They will flip their shit!
Trump properties discriminated against black renters.
Oops, I guess he did act in a racist fashion over a long period of time.

What Hillary won't do is contradict herself 3 times in 3 minutes every time she opens her mouth.
Or about 250 Trillian Zimbabwean dollars.
I'm curious: do they kill rats in India?
It takes a lot more Nitrogen, since Nitrogen isn't poisonous.
You have to use a trap that particular mouse is not familiar with.
The theology is key to binding people to the culture.

For hard evidence, that's all they had.
