This country has gone crazy. Tensions are high. Never seen it this bad.

I've been going back and forth, not sure who id like to see lose more. It's not that I even prefer one over the other, it's more like I'd like to see both sides lose.

I can't stand Hillary, she's the worst of the worst.

Trump is making all kinds of ridiculous promises. The extreme lunatics on the Left, have also helped fuel a small but growing authoritarian movement in the Right. Many of them backing Trump. I can go on and on, but I don't see a good outcome either way.

Supreme Court appointments, which are lifetime appointments. One appointment for certain, likely one or two more throughout the duration of whoever's presidency. Part of the Trump campaign's strategy is hoping to discourage enough people from participating in the process to give them just enough of an edge, but it doesn't look like it's working, thank goodness.

Federal judges retain their appointments "during good behavior" as stated in the Constitution.

Precisely why Hillary being elected would be disastrous. Her Supreme Court picks would be as bad as Obama's. Just more liberal activists, in the style of Ginsberg, who don't care what the Constitution actually says or staying within their legal bounds but just forcing their warped views and agenda on society.

Sounds like Scalia.

Well said, Oak.

Exactly. Scalia was one of the justices who actually understood their role.

Greenville, MS

TERRIBLE..just terrible. What's the racial climate in that town,BlackFam? It's either political skullduggery by person working for Dem.s or purely racist person trying to set off a race war. Either way, person who did it should be put before a firing squad.

I hate to say it, but because there's been so many previous examples I have to wonder if this is a hoax. Back in the 1990s there was a series of black church fires and a lot of people believed they were perpetrated by white racists or the Klan. Then it turns out that a young black female arsonist was charged, apparently wanting it to seem that white racists burned the churches. I would be surprised if a Hillary supporter didn't vandalize this church.

Republicans have mastered that game, too.

Ashley Todd.

Never Forget.

Another tu quoque fallacy, and a weak one at that. Did the Ashley Todd case involve church vandalism or church fires? No, but she was quickly exposed as a fraudster, put in jail and ordered psychiatric counseling. While she was promoted by the Drudge Report, others on the Right, such as Michelle Malkin, immediately saw through her and wrote about it. There was no cover-up, and as a never-been-a-Republican I can say that it's clear that she doesn't represent them, nor have they "mastered that game" since their participation in these hoaxes is so rare.

On the other hand cheating and hoaxes do find greater acceptance in the Democratic Party, as evidence by the Wikileaks exposures of Debbie Wassermann Schultz and her successor Donna Brazile. Sneaking answers to a Presidential candidate when you're supposed to be fair and neutral is a pretty big deal. Paying people to start fights in Trump rallies is a pretty big deal too. Despite all that I'm not going to paint all Democrats with a broad brush and claim that they "mastered that game."

Yeah, you must have forgotten that the McCain campaign did seize on Ashley's claims, including a publicized phone call from McCain himself to the Todd family, that FoxNews covered like the Super Bowl.

Fast forward to 2016...Trump's campaign office is vandalized or something. Riiight.



lol. Who?

All that shows is that McCain and Fox fell for her hoax. If you have some evidence that the campaign was actually behind it, let's see it. (I'll give my response in advance: Oh, no evidence? Of course. What else is new?)



You know, the people who give you your talking points.

What talking points? Who are Debbie Wassermann Schults and Donna Brazile? I don't watch cable news. Get all my news from following various news agencies and writers on twitter. I watch the local news on DVR just for train wrecks. I haven't watched CNN or MSNBC in a few years. FoxNews since 2008, you know, when McCain and Palin pounced all over that bogus Ashley Todd story. I'm not voting Democrat because of any talking points. I'm voting Democrat the same reason most voters are, because the Republican party is so crazy now that it's scary. And they're running Donald Trump for president. Yes, Donald Trump. lol.

Yeah, right. There have been stories all over Twitter and FB about DWS and Brazile. BTW, just because Trump is bad doesn't make Clinton good. Not unless you like corrupt crony-corporate owned warmongers, that is.

If there were stories on my twitter feed about these irrelevant people you're talking about, I wasn't paying attention, and scrolled right past them. I don't concern myself with no-names.

Yet one more reason Obama can't leave office soon enough...


Feds Order Law Enforcement Agencies to Ignore Drug Use, Criminal Records to Hire Minorities

http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2016/1...ire-minorities/

Um...

No, he doesn't.

Read the actual article.

He's asking them, when doing background checks, to at least discern past criminal convictions from one another based on their severity, including admitted drug use that didn't result in a criminal conviction.

This request is obviously designed to discourage recruiters from using youthful indiscretions like a speeding ticket or smoking weed at a party against applicants and classifying them all under a large blanket which labels them as having a criminal background. In other words, recruiters are obviously finding any petty thing they can in applicants' pasts to counter the federal government's attempt to bring ethnic diversity to law enforcement agencies that sorely need it.

I don't totally blame you for misunderstanding the article, however, because the right wing web site you got it from obviously uses a headline that was out of context as click bait.

Fucking al qaeda planning a possible terror attack in VA or TX on MondAy. I hope this isnt tbe start of a new wave.

lol. blueracing we only had to worry about that stuff when Bush was president. Like on 9/11. They never pull off these attacks when Democrats are in charge. Fact. They just make threats.

I didn't misunderstand the artice, nor am I shocked by your expected spin response. This is just liberal driven affirmative action like we've seen before. Lowering or altering the standards, in the name of "diversity," so the unqualified can get in.

Your fearless leader Obama paid how much to Iran in ransom? I believe their was a xmas party that went bad last year. Their was the boston marathon incident. I thought Oak was gone for good. What a tease.

What about when the Trade Center was bombed in 1993? I remember that well because I was in Jersey. Bill Clinton was President.

What about it?

What a surprise. The candidate that promotes violence gets violence. It's called karma. I'd feel safer at any rap concert than I would at a Trump rally. Not a good look 3 days before the election.

I despise both Hillary and Trump both and politics in general. I am confused by your reference to feeling safe at a rap concert though. It is quite a racial comment if I may say so. What are you trying to say? Rap concerts by black rappers are extremely violent because all black people are violent and only black people attend said concerts?

It's already been pointed out to your sorry liberal butt that there's been waaaay more violence and rioting from Hillary supporters/Trump haters than by Trump supporters. Just go on YouTube and see for yourself.

But we all know you won't. Whenever you're shown to be wrong, which is pretty much all the time, you make some weak retort (or don't answer at all) and then move on while hoping nobody will notice.

No, it isn't. And, I'll speak for myself.
