The US Election 2016, Part VI

I was far more offended when Barack Obama & Janet Napolitano questioned my patriotism by calling me a likely terrorist since I am a veteran and I actually agree with freedom and individual liberty being what this country is all about. Hillary Clinton is a liar and not a good example of the best the human race has to offer. But right now she is nobody. A candidate. She thinks 47% if America is deplorable? So what? If she actually wins this election it becomes a problem.

 

By the way Bruce, have you contemplated how much crow you will have to eat if Trump actually wins this thing? Better chew it good!  :lol:

 

She didn't say that in any way.

 

I stand corrected. She said half of Trump's supporters were in a basket of deplorables. Not that that is an improvement. But hey, at least she only insulted 25% of Americans. Obama insulted us all last week.

 

 

I'd say that 25% of Americans being xenophobes is a fairly conservative estimate. Not that the statistics are any different for other nationalities, though.

 

So the problem with her statement is not that it is untrue but rather that it is offensive. I wonder why Trump and his supporters, of all people, are complainingt. Aren't they on the side of the straight talkers who tell it like it is?

"I'd say that 25% of Americans being xenophobes is a fairly conservative estimate. Not that the statistics are any different for other nationalities, though."

 

The question is... is it just 25% of Amerikans... or 25% of white people?

 

The problkem with it is it basicallyu says if you disagree with me you must eb racist. And, I bet she doesn't view the BLM supporters maching down the streets ranting'KILL WHITEY' after a black offcier shoots a black suspect as racist. R00fles!

 

Racism is NOT a white only disease and the problem with SJW Nazis is that theya ctually believe it is.

"I was raised in a matriarchal society and gender equality was installed in me in a natural and reasonable way"

 

Don't you see the hilkariousness of this sort of sexism?

 

'Gender equality' 'matriarchial society'. Those terms cannot go together. DOES NOT COMPUTE.

Didnt you know this about me ?

 

 

Why do you think I am so aware and supportive of gender equality

You are not.

 

You act towards women like an owner towards a dog. You think you know better and that they should obey you, because in your mind you are superior to them. You just feel good because you don't beat or starve them and you let them play in the yard.

You are not nor you ever will think of women as an equal, independent human being. For you they are a charity case at best.

 

No thats not at all what I think, your assessment is horribly inaccurate 

 

I consider women my equal in most things but very important to a balanced society

I would 25 % of Trumps supporters are bigots 

 

Volo you need to accept this, its true......I'll be honest when I first came to these forums I had you on several bigotry lists like my "possible sexist list " and " habitual sexist list " but I took you off  :w00t:

Wouldn't Sanders be the default choice? I bet he's licking his chops right now.

Sanders isn't even a Democrat, and he lost. I don't see the Dem establishment picking him, he's got nothing to offer to them.

 

Let the speculations begin.

I really don't think this is true. Immigrants are welcome here like nowhere else. We just ask that you do it legally! 

 

But on your larger point I disagree completely and emphatically that even 25% of us are xenophobic. I thought about all the people I know and could only come up with one but that guy hates everyone. Now I don't know enough people to constitute a sample size but speaking as someone who actually lives here... that is way off base.

Donald Trump’s Campaign Stands By Embrace of Putin

 

People might think the US is going to hell in a hand basket with a diminishing middle class and ever divisive identity politics...

 

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY _NOTHING_ ABOUT PUTIN'S GOVERNANCE ANYONE WHO ASPIRES TO CINC SHOULD ADMIRE OR SEEK TO EMULATE.

 

Well, unless your thing is re-nationalisation of failed industries, f** drags, covering up the shootdown of a 777, assassination of journalists, and the seizure of other people's property (which I suppose explains Trump's predilection for eminent domain).

“Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.”

"The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete."

Man might be crazy, but at least he speaks his madness to the mic on purpose.

 

Remember Hillary Clinton's reset? Spose it worked out well for her after all? Course, the New York times is a bastion of right wingers, yes?

Remember Obama's open mic to Medvedev?

 

 

Trump should be ridiculed for his statements, but at least their out in the open. Would prefer the madness made known to the world than the corruption cryptically hidden from the public.
