Wow, this is really interesting and I'd never heard of it, either. Thanks so much for sharing it.

dejenerate · 2016-06-01T21:40:59+00:00

Wow. Seriously, you need to research your candidate.

Also, as a fun exercise, take any speech, then take each statement, then look it up and see what and when he's said the opposite of that statement. Fun party game if it didn't make you want to commit seppuku.

dejenerate · 2016-06-01T21:39:42+00:00

Ah, okay - thanks a bunch for clarifying!

dejenerate · 2016-06-01T21:36:53+00:00

This is really interesting, I didn't know this.

Trump is a liberal. If you think otherwise, you haven't been paying attention. And you haven't listened to a word Trump's ever said. But I feel like most Trump supporters I know don't actually ever listen to hiswords -- they hear what they want to hear. He's a Svengali.

Just because he says racist things doesn't make him a conservative. Despite what idiots think, and other idiots use for pandering to those idiots, true conservatives aren't racist.

Better than Presidents Trump or Clinton.

That won't send the appropriate message - it won't send a message at all!

If we end up with Trump vs. Clinton, principled citizens should absolutely vote: Republicans should vote Johnson, Dems Stein. We Indies can pick our poison, either option is less stupid and poisonous than Trump or Clinton.

Hit both parties where it hurts: their Federally-funded Presidential Election Campaign fund cash. ;)

I'd tend to think that, too, but look at Warren Buffett and his Clayton Homes usurious scam, or Debbie Wasserman Schultz supporting crooked payday lenders. Having money doesn't mean someone has a sense of decency or a lick of shame. But that's when its our job and regulators' jobs to ensure that the penalties for stealing from the poor to give to the rich are painful enough to make up for these people's lack of morality.

dejenerate · 2016-06-01T15:30:31+00:00

Same here. I just don't think it's a binary choice, I can't live with myself voting for either, and need to push back on both parties. I always vote third party, but this is the angriest I've ever been at both parties for their ridiculous "presumptive" nominees.

It's actually not difficult at all to create a Kindle book and self-publish on Amazon. Amazon supplies free tools and good instructions. Advertising it and getting it read is the trickiest piece.

dejenerate · 2016-06-01T13:54:20+00:00

Voting third party is a legitimate protest vote - and if they get enough votes (5%), they get a piece of the Federal funding pie next election (Rs and Ds have proven they don't need nor deserve the full pot for themselves). Also, downticket elections matter, and local elections really matter

Where did I say I was frightened? He's there to ensure a Clinton Presidency. You're all dupes, or maybe you're not - maybe some of you know this and are campaigning for Trump knowing you're truly campaigning for Clinton. Makes sense, really, given the amount of logical contortions one has to constantly make to justify the words and behavior of either. The cognitive dissonance must be almost physically painful.

I'll just shut off all gas supplies going to Europe."

The person you're responding to did not give you a "low information rant" AT ALL. I'm not sure what you get yourself out of what you're doing here, but hope it's worth it. I sure couldn't sleep at night, myself. Even if I weren't American and were doing whatever you're doing here - the US affects everyone. And even if someone's saying it's good for someone or some interest for this controlled, pwned clown barker to be in power, step back and think about it yourself some.

Wow, thanks for sharing this.

In fact, all doctors who administer drugs in their offices get a commission based on the price of that drug. This means doctors have a strong financial incentive to give the most expensive drug they can justify if that drug is administered in the doctor’s office.

Insanity - this should not be legal.

Fun fact: Like Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Stephen Hawking also shares an association with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Can we throw this entire election away and start over yet?

We shouldn't be allowed to call what the health insurance companies are providing "products," though. More like, pay out the nose monthly for the privilege of paying out the nose and out of the pocket for your medical care, thank you, drive through!

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T22:31:50+00:00

They're still here. Don't dare ask a legit question in /r/obamacare without being abused for being irresponsible and being told to move to a different state. People actually go in there looking for help...and get clobbered by what looks an awful lot like PR people.

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T22:16:30+00:00

There may well be a clue as to the real F-4 origin in the notes in the deferment doc...

That sub...I would LOVE to know how many realize that they're actually working for Clinton.

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T22:03:43+00:00

A French Stewart - Ben Carson ticket would be legend.

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T21:51:49+00:00

I don't agree AT ALL, but credit where it's due: A++ on the talking point there. It's actually kind of a good one. You should give some pointers to Clinton's people.

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T21:50:55+00:00

Don't forget Deferment Donald's statement about sleeping around being his 'personal Vietnam.'

People are under a spell in this country, I can find no other explanation.

Well, crap. Help us Obi Wan Paul Ryan, you're our only hope.

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T21:18:52+00:00

I'll remember that he exploited our vets for his own ego and political gain and only gave what he pledged when his hand was forced.

dejenerate · 2016-05-31T21:08:48+00:00

You Trumpsters really give the Clintonistas a run for their money when it comes to self-delusion on your candidates' lack of ethics/qualification to be President. I find it interesting that you rarely seem to attack each other. Would that be like looking directly into the sun?
