US Politics/2016 Election Pick Your Poison Master Thread

without getting involved in this boxing match - loving the show btw- why is she courageous?

A boxing "match" involves both landing blows. When one is absorbing all the blows it is not much of a match unless he is using rope-a-dope.

Obligatory once daily

Oh go to bed old man. Maybe in your dreams something other than another 4 years of Trump will come out of this.

My take:
This whistleblower's allegation is very serious (should be obvious) and definitely warrants an investigation (should also be obvious). There are not enough facts out there yet to make a determination as to how deep this investigation should go and definitely not enough to know how factual the allegations are. That the allegations are hearsay is not relevant to this. Hearsay can be a good reason to investigate. The issue is that so many have already reached their verdict of either guilty or not guilty which by some strange coincidence is almost perfectly correlated with other opinions of theirs about the president. Every single fact is being interpreted to fit into the verdict they have already reached.

That is why I want to hear the recording and the facts uncovered. Like I originally asked, SC 2.0?

The only problem that I have with this investigation , is that it’s So obviously partisan. If only the investigation could be based solely on the facts without this hatred.

VERY premature. It is not even clear that the allegation are a legal question to start with.

That is why you need SC 2.0
No matter what spin you want to put on the Muller investigation it was fair.

[CountValentine]

Who is going to decide if it is a legal question?

Just listen to the video and not the source. It was sent to me. This is how you spell hypocrite.

You makes no sense.

[CountValentine]

You need to get out more!

[grodnoking]

You need to get out more!

Yes I do. Been cooped up all day. A little sunshine wont hurt. Y'know, get off my computer, stop posting in the politics thread all day, and maybe see what people actually think, and not what the media tells me they think.

Basically the Barone rule. None of them are doing anythng because of what is right but because of political advantage. Why should we think he is different than the rest of them? They are all hypocrites.

[gingyguy]

...but officer he was speeding to. 

if the officer would be consistently pulling over only the black speeder and letting all the whites go scot free that would be discrimination , and the black guy would end up getting his charges dismissed

There you go again. You were doing so good.
Should we believe the whole world is hypocrites or maybe all religious people are hypocrites? Or how about all cops are corrupt or all lawyers are scumbags?

...and what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?
