If I lived in New York, I could have the satisfaction of voting against her -- often.

Really, I don't think I'm voting for a Democratic candidate for the remainder of my life, after the shit they're pulling.

She is just playing the game and I know we are tired of political games but she can't win playing clean. Can anyone these days?

Yes, of course they could.
Why could someone not just tell the truth and win? That makes no sense.
She is a liar and not, remotely, how she presents herself.
HELL, no one knows HOW she presents herself or WHO the HELL she is!
It would be the same as "OK, let's get the president behind curtain nummmmmberrrrr ONE!!!!!"

What "shit" might that be?

And is it any better or worse than the "shit" that the other parties pull?

Hardly. They are all crooks in the others mind.

I thought he claimed to be a libertarian...

He claims that starting foreign wars is libertarian.

Let pit him against Radar, then. Shouldn't be too hard to do IRL either, given that they both live in SoCal.

He already wore out our man. Many pages were burned up without initiation of force being fully comprehended.

Other business: Did Jesse Jackson throw Hillary under the bus last week?

You can't be that naive. Every issue has two factions. A serious contender can't alienate either side and win.

We know more about her than anyone else running. Did you know what a dangerous prick Bush is when he ran the first time?

You know, I'm not really supposed to be telling anyone here this, but I just heard from a friend in the Clinton campaign. There is a better than 50/50 chance that Hillary will declare Bill her vice-presidential running mate.

For the past two months they've quietly had lawyers looking over the 22nd amendment. Obviously, there is nothing in there preventing a president from running for vice president once the term limits are up, but they had to look beyond the amendment to challenges on the intent of the amendment.

At this point they're weighing the pros and cons. On the con side is the possibility that Hillary will not be perceived independent from Bill, that she will be seen as a puppet. This is similar to the musings on the left about GWB's relationship with Cheney.

On the plus side is the possibility of satisfying conservatives who would not be comfortable with a 'male first lady' as well as moderates and liberals who would love to see Bill Clinton retake an official role in foreign policy.

On a public relations front, with Bill traveling overseas on foreign assignments, the couple could show legitimate reasons for separation due to job roles, freeing them from having to maintain a residence together and again from allegations of Hillary being manipulated by Bill.

From what I hear, they intend to declare in the fall. Right now they are reviewing other candidates as a backup and to provide cover, but it's pretty much a done deal. I probably shouldn't even post this, but I can't keep it in. Fortunately, the Cellar doesn't get many hits on any threads besides IOTD, so it should be safe enough to post it here.

He's back.

























April's fool!:D

I do NOT fucking believe you said that.

Isn't it shitty that the whole of the Democratic Party's foreign policy is the giving of aid and comfort to our nation's violent, and shooting, enemies? I've said before the Dems would behave in a manner either stupid or treasonable, and they are managing both. (For treason, see Art III, Sec. 3.1, US Constitution.)

Didn't you fucking notice that? Better check the prescription on those spexx. You are seriously purblind.

I say things for a reason. If you cannot grok that reason, the deficiency lies with you, chum, not me.

I do not trust the Dems to keep the Republic. That they belie their own name by ceasing to press for democracy in places it's not been allowed by the ruling elites is simply beyond understanding -- except in postulating that the Dem Party mostly is not very bright, and has developed tacit fascist sympathies which now rule their every move.

The yatterers for impeaching the President are similarly ill founded. It is not a high crime nor a misdemeanor to try to win a war -- one started by others, I'll have you acknowledge. Do not the Democrats carry on as if they believed it was? Yes they do. Yet even the Dems aren't stooping to the impeachment foolishness. That's for the real political mad-cow cases.

What might that be, indeed! Spexx, I require you to be not so lame of brain. Can you meet that requirement?
