You read too much MSN. Get out of your echo chamber a bit.
I going to assume you are just messing around instead of trolling.

Thanks for the pdf.
It looks to me she was tuff on crime. Now that the NYT is taking the left wing view is a plus in her favor. We need to fact check what they say.

Coverings up prosecutorial misconduct sounds more like 'systemic racism' than tuff on crime. Disagree?

Covering up is wrong and could be based in racism . Now we know what the article says but is that what happened?

You just don't get it. He didn't "trade" any person or thing in.

So what do you call it when a guy divorces his wife to marry the woman he is cheating on her with?


I pointed out two items in your short statement that were not true.

No you did not.


Game, set and match!!!

Morally wrong.

wheelchair - wrong
That looks like two to me.

Most of systemic racism is due to privileged=empowered people trampling on the weak. This was her specialty. Just read the article. judge condemned Ms. Harris’s indifference to the systemic violation of the defendants’ constitutional rights

Ms. Harris also championed  state legislation  under which parents whose children were found to be  habitually truant  in elementary school could be prosecuted, despite concerns that it would  disproportionately affect  low-income people of color.

How and why are you defending her? She's not tough, she's mean, callous and a PHONY.

The select few here who actually think before they opine may find this useful

https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/08/11/kamala-harris-vp-background-bio-biden-running-mate-2020-393885

Quote
Kamala Harris met her Jewish husband, Douglas Emhoff, on a blind date in San Francisco, arranged by friends. They married in 2014 — Harris’s sister Maya officiated — and smashed a glass to honor Emhoff’s upbringing. It was her first marriage and his second — Emhoff has two Jewish children from his first marriage.

....

During her first three years as district attorney, San Francisco’s conviction rate jumped from 52 to 67 percent.

Morally wrong.
Is that another way of saying the type of thing a scumbag does?

trade - wrong

Only if you thought that when I said "traded in" means "went to the wife store and gave in his old wife in order to get a discount on a new model"...

I don't think you are that stupid.
wheelchair - wrong
Please show me where I said his first wife was confined to a wheelchair?

You can't even see how disrespectful to women you are by saying she was "traded in". You are trying to use terms to make him look like I scumbag but you claim he is not a scumbag.

You claim up thread I was right about the wheelchair and now are trying to backtrack.

Bottom line: You say he is not a scumbag, I say he is not a scumbag, I voted for him!!!

So my pointing out what he did is disrespectful, but you minimizing it isn't?

@ExGingi can you please share the "zein meg men, ober zogen tor men nit?!" story?
You claim up thread I was right about the wheelchair and now are trying to backtrack.

You are right that she was not stuck in a wheelchair, but I never said she was.

Bottom line: You say he is not a scumbag, I say he is not a scumbag

I say he was not a scumbag because it isn't right to label someone based on one flaw. You say he's not a scumbag because
I voted for him!!!
and feel some need to minimize his misdeeds to show your own virtue.

I am not minimizing anything. What he did was morally wrong. What part of that don't you understand.

You trying to characterizing what he did was like "trading in" is also morally wrong. Why you show such disrespect towards women is beyond me and for another thread.

Your intent of your post was to show that he was a scumbag. That is the same as calling him a scumbag which you then said he was not a scumbag. So stop with your BS.

Your intent was also to portray her as also being in a wheelchair when he cheated on her and married another women. As I said you are way past the Kool-Aid stage!!!

If cheating on a crippled wife, and then trading her in for a younger, wealthier woman (who isn't confined to a wheelchair) doesn't qualify someone for the title, then what does?

It you never heard the term traded in used to refer to someone who divorces his wife in order to marry someone else then you need to get out more.

The intent of my post was to show that you voted for someone who was immoral in his personal life.

Your claim that I am being disrespectful to women by pointing out what John McCain did, is disgusting , but you already admitted that your attacks are not based on reality.
You attack her and you will be labeled a racist or sexist. Is that fair, no but that is the reality.

Yes I have heard the term used many times. It is disrespectful to women and you keep defending using the term.
The fact is he did not "trade in" anything. It is only in your twisted mind.
The intent of my post was to show that you voted for someone who was immoral in his personal life.
Pure 100% BS!!! Your intent was to show he was a scumbag. You dug your whole so deep you are now looking foolish.
Your claim that I am being disrespectful to women by pointing out what John McCain did, is disgusting , but you already admitted that your attacks are not based on reality.
Please retake reading comprehension 101 because you are completely lost on the meaning of what you quoted.   ::)

The R's have a big problem. You attack her and you will be labeled a racist or sexist. Is that fair, no but that is the reality.

Now if you want to see worked up about this strong independent black women being picked as VP check with your own community?  :)

My feeling is that there is a tremendous risk for the dems in taking such a route. There are way too many who have come to the realization that you just mentioned that it is not fair to label people like that. The backlash against that was a big part of what got Trump elected.

Trump is already (or labeled) a racist and sexist so of course he will continue his pattern. I don't think other R's will follow him as quickly.
