Your party is nominating Hillary Clinton
What
How much are the Clintons' worth? How many corporations whose policies she 'opposes' as a pol has she feted in her speeches? How much shady shit has the family condoned to garner speaking fees for Bill and Hillary and donations to the Clinton Foundation?
You think it's particularly controversial or complicated to point out Hillary has been eager to sell out to make a buck along the way? Seriously?

The last time the liberals shut down the voices of ordinary Americans, they got Reagan in response. I was one of those young and neither left-nor-right people at the time - confused and frustrated that no one was speaking up for the America in which I was raised and its values. Standing up to overpaid postal workers and then stomping on pissant countries that dared to defy us - that was red meat, baby.
Today you may have Fox News and Am yak radio, but you have an overwhelming PC police force in politics and the media. Here is what's in the mind of Trump voters:
* A cop shoots a black guy. Used to be, OK, a criminal got shot. Now #BLM and the cop is a criminal and you're a racist if you challenge that.
* A freak starts wearing dresses and calling himself a lady. Used to be, ha-ha what a freak. Now (s)he is brave and noble and Woman Of The Year. You're intolerant and bigoted if you don't embrace her wonder.
* Overwhelmingly, modern terrorism is Islamist. But if you dare whisper that or fret about how we vet Muslim immigrants, you're a racist.
Finally along comes a guy who says what you're thinking.
Trump is enabled because the PC police have shouted down every other politician, professor, pundit, and public figure. You could have had reasoned discussion, but you closed it off. So now you get the crass version.
Lemme guess, you find what's "it" today to be weird and scary.
Used to be that if you found a Black guy at the bottom of a swamp tied up in chains you'd think, OK, just like him to steal more chains than he could swim with. Now the PC police want you to believe some racists guys chained the guy up, dragged him around from the back of a pickup truck and dumped in a swamp.
Used to be if you saw a couple of gay guys in the park you just kicked the #$!&@ out of them. Now you not only have to let them get married, you also have to sell those cupcakes a cupcake.
Used to be if you didn't want the Jews around you just rounded them up, stuffed them into cattle cars, hauled them off and toasted them. Now you actually have to let them in your country club.
The PC police have destroyed American traditions and values and you can't even discuss this stuff with them in a fair and balanced way!

Hillary sets up private email server over which she sends and receives emails which years later some bureaucrat decides after the fact should be classified.
Tell me again which is worse both morally and for our country?

I keep hearing "Hillary should be in jail" and that she committed the worst crime ever by sending some documents over her private e-mail, but what bad thing exactly became of that? I'm not exactly clear, but maybe 10 more Senate Committees will get to the bottom of it! Bush and Cheney did virtually the same thing Hillary did, but nobody on the right seemed to give a shit about that in 2007...
Her refusing to release the transcripts is a funny thing for you to rail on about. Seems like something you'd 100% defend if it were a Republican. I think it's scummy and it's one of the many reasons I'll be caucusing with Bernie later this month.
There are degrees of scumbaggery and Clinton's pales in comparison to anyone on the right.

Further, don't you support a guy who is about representing the 99% and those who don't get special treatment? Yet you condone Hilary getting special treatment on this?

I'm surprised jh is pulling out the current Republican talking points: FBI investigation! Won't release the transcripts!
No Benghazi?

Poor effort
Because there haven't been charges. Sure it's bad but if they find no criminal wrongdoing then she's sure as shit learned her lesson.jerseyhoya wrote:Doll Is Mine wrote:pacino wrote:She's fine.

As was pointed out the transcripts isn't a GOP talking point. And I'm not really sure how an FBI investigation gets handwaved as a partisan talking point, but your mileage may vary.
