I have (no surprise) a rather lengthy write-up on my view of Comey's
testimony. The short version: I see no reason to think he is anything other
than a decent and moral person. While he did not recommend indictment DID
show Clinton is not in any way a good candidate for president.

And that is just the tip of the iceberg for her. The DNC has been absurd in
selecting her. She is Trump's best chance to get to the White House.

But you will vote for her anyway, or at least take an action that favors
her victory, such as abstaining, or voting for someone with no chance of
winning, right?

How does NOT voting for her in any way favor her victory? I hear the same
thing from her supporters saying if I do not vote for her I am favoring
Trump.

Not voting for either is not favoring either. Trump is a horror show, but
even he is not so bad as to lead to me supporting the election fraud that
has gotten Clinton to where she is.

Since the election is so close, any action other than a vote for Trump is
a vote for Hillary. Likewise, any action other than a vote for Hillary
is a vote for Trump. The only votes that will count are votes for one of
those two. Abstainers of course don't get counted. Votes for "other"
candidates are votes that could have been added to the tally for Trump
or Hillary and might have tipped the scale, but instead they just get
tossed in the bin.

I guess some people just can't make a choice no matter how small the
number of choices.

You show you do not even understand what the choices are... nor what they
mean.

Hint: NOT supporting someone is NOT a sign of support for any of their
opponents.

No, it means that you had a chance to have your vote count for something
at the ballot box, but chose not to.

But none of those candidates will win, so such a vote is wasted, when
it could have been used to sway the election.

Yes, Trump or Clinton voters could have wasted their votes that way.
In this election it is 100% guaranteed that either Clinton or Trump
will be the next president. Your vote for either can help determine
that outcome. Any other action is a wasted vote.

You don't understand what the choices are. Only one of Hillary or Trump
is going to win this election. Guaranteed. 100%. No one else has
the slightest chance in hell of winning. So you have the option of
helping tip the election one way or another with your vote.

All conservatives have a duty to vote Trump, and all libtards have a
satanic duty to vote Clinton. That is, unless you see her for the
criminal that she is. Then you have a duty to vote Trump, even if
you're a libtard. Because, face it. Trump is not a criminal, and he
is as much Democrat as he is Republican. So even if you're a Democrat,
it won't hurt anything if you vote Trump at the top of the ticket and
the rest Democrat on the down ballot.

By this "logic" you should try to figure out who is going to win and then
vote for them no matter what they say. If it turns out Clinton is far ahead
in the polls come voting day will you vote for her or "waste" your vote on
Trump, knowing he is unlikely to win?

What do you mean by a "wasted vote"?

Incorrect (though not by much).

By your logic if it looks like Clinton is a sure thing then a vote for Trump
is "wasted"?

Well, I do not know all choices in all jurisdictions!

Very likely but NOT guaranteed.

Or to not back either... which if they are both unacceptable to me is a
perfectly valid choice.

But you say not voting for either shows support for Clinton... others tell
me it shows support for Trump. Both claims are absurd.

False.

It is quite telling when you feel the need to resort to name calling. You
show deep insecurity.

I will not be voting for Trump given how he has NO qualifications. Even his
claim of being a good businessman is utterly absurd. I see NO reason at all
to back him.

Polls don't count. Votes count. The only way one wins over the other
is if that person's vote count is higher. A vote for another candidate
besides one of those two is wasted.

A choice for one of the only two candidates who will possibly win is not
wasted on either of those candidates, because it is those very votes
that will determine who wins. On the other hand, a vote for candidate
C, in an election where it is guaranteed that only A or B will win, is
a wasted vote.

Which means a wasted vote. A chance to tip the scale one way or the
other that was neglected because you could not man up and make a decision.

I'm saying that you have the chance to vote for a decent human being
who has this nation's best interest at heart (Trump), or a vote for
a criminal serial liar (Hillary, spawn of Satan) who will sell us
out to the highest bidder and probably get us into a world war.

In that case, Hillary Clinton thanks you for your support. And you will
share responsibility for what she does to this country if she wins.

I do not even know what you mean by the term, though it is clearly a

I do not support her either. The concept of not supporting either simply
goes over your head.

You say he is unlikely to win. I say he is likely to win in a landslide.
There is a legitimate question there, between Hillary and Trump. Both
of them have an actual chance. No one else does though, so a vote for
someone else is wasted.

History and common sense. Ralph Nader was not even on the ballot
in my state. No way that fucker could win. But he siphoned off
enough votes to tip the scale electorally for Bush in one state
in the northeast. I forget which.

Because election fraud is not going to put a third party candidate
in office, and even if it results in a House selection of the Pres.,
they will choose one of Hillary or Trump.

Nope.

Anything other than a vote for Hillary is a vote for Trump, because
you *could* have voted for Hillary but didn't, thereby depriving
her of a vote.

What goes over your head is simple math. Your friends are right. If you
are someone who would ordinarily vote Democrat but are now voting some
other way because the Democrat is Hillary, then you are netting Trump
a vote that he would not ordinarily have. Same for Republicans who
don't vote for Trump. They are netting Hillary a vote she would not
otherwise have.

That is your opinion... as is who is a "possible winner." At this point it
seems unlikely Trump will win. Do you consider a vote for him to be
"wasted"?

But it is possible one of both candidates will, for whatever reason, have to
drop out or become unable to run.

Unlike you I do not feel obligated to support ANYONE, Democrat or
Republican. I back people if they are decent candidates. Right now Stein is
likely the best but she is NOT a leader... and has made comments about
vaccinations which are a bit silly (pandering perhaps)?

So there is a question as to whom can win... or is likely to. Thus no vote
is "wasted."

How do you know they have popularity? Heck, who else has a LOWER rating than

A vote for Trump is a vote for Trump. A vote for Clinton is a vote for
Clinton. Other votes are not votes for EITHER.

It is like saying if you pick Linux then you are backing Windows and Mac.
Utter nonsense.

So a vote for neither is a vote for both by your twisted logic.

The idea that either has the nation's best interest at heart is silly... and
the "spawn of Satan" comment is hyperbole.

This is not complex:

* A vote for Trump is a vote for Trump
* A vote for Clinton is a vote for Clinton.
* A vote for nether is a vote for neither.
* A vote does not imply it is a counted vote, sadly.

Candidates have to EARN votes.

to either abstain from voting or vote for Stein?

Nope. Clearly you would never vote for Trump, so I won't bother
trying to get you to vote Trump. As a libtard, you are would
be likely to vote for the Democrat, but you have shown that
you might have difficulty pulling the lever for Hillary.
I say that's great. Don't vote for Hillary. Vote for anybody
but Hillary (since she is the only one other than Trump who
chance to win). A vote for Stein is a vote for Trump, so
I encourage you to vote early and often.

I will not vote for him or Clinton. Both are horrid choices and I will not
be responsible in any way for either of them.

This is not complex, but sadly over your head:

* A vote for Trump is a vote for Trump
* A vote for Clinton is a vote for Clinton.
* A vote for nether is a vote for neither.
* A vote does not imply it is a counted vote, sadly.

You whine when I repeat things but you show no understanding. Remember, only
a vote for Trump is a vote for Trump.

Oh, and Trump has essentially no chance of winning. Sadly Clinton does.

But you have said to NOT vote for someone who does not have much chance of
winning, so if you are true to yourself you will not vote for Trump.

Not unless you're a liberal. Then vote for anybody but Hillary. Or
stay home. Either action works out great for Trump.

Now you'll notice that I take the opposite tack with DFS. Since
he is a Republican who is having a hard time pulling the lever
for Trump, I do my best to convince him that that is wrong, that
he should just hold his nose and vote for Trump. Can't let Hillary
win because of a split vote on the right.

Wait: if you are going to be consistent, given how Trump is not likely to
win, you should not vote for him either.

I am not a big fan of Stein, either. She is not a leader and her comments on
things like Wi-Fi and vaccinations are a bit whacky.

And you base this on??? His only chance is that he is running against

I have no more problem with him winning than with Clinton. Both are
disasters.

I frankly do not care which of the disasters is elected... and hoping for a
miracle to give us another option.

I'm consistent. Trump has a chance. Hillary has a chance. No one else

He has far more than a slim chance. Wait. Forget I said that.
You probably don't even need to vote at all, since Hillary's
got it in the bag.

No! You need to vote your conscience. Stein is the best match.

I agree on this point.
Hillary has serious health issues tho. A Dr. said that anyone on
Cuomadin (blood thinner) is only supposed to be on it for a short time.
She is one this stuff now since 2013 when she had that nasty fall.
No real press conferences for over 240 days now.

Trump isn't a horror show. He gives great promise of putting back the
balance to government, where it started with the Chimp, in scoffing the
law and doing whatever he wants to anyway. Even Obama said he can do
anything he wanted to do now.

You act like I prefer Clinton over him. Why?

As far as his chances: he has literally NO qualifications. Clinton at least
has some... but she is grossly corrupt. But with him there is literally NO
reason to back him. He has no decent policy ideas, no experience, poor
success in business... what does he have going for him?

He has no plans and no qualifications, and has not been successful in his

he have?

His ever changing yet always unrealistic wall? That is a non-starter. His
xenophobic fear mongering which will split the country and lead to wars? Not

I have heard those rumors as well... could be true. She has done interviews

But she is likely backing off the public lime light because she, like Trump,

Who says that Trump has no qualifications? He has one... he's a mason.
And the masons are the ones that created the U.S. Constitution. He has
plenty of help across the country.
Funny thing, it is the media that is ragging on trump but not one bad
word about hillary.

<http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/>

I am NOT going to say such a report is as telling as some. Heck, if you take
that without context you can "prove" Clinton is honest (which is utter BS)
but they list a LOT of lies by him. Some they list as such I will disagree
with -- such as when they say him noting the fact the election is "rigged"
is a "pants on fire" lie. Of course it is rigged... we have the evidence to
prove it. But many are flat out lies on his part.

As far as Mensa... I am the only one I know who has found errors on their
tests. My 8th grade math teacher was big on Mensa and gave us some of their
tests... and they were flawed. Have a lot of friends in Mensa... do not see

How so? What vision does he have? Heck, even his well keeps changing sizes

Ridiculous lie.

An hour ago on CNN she was being hammered by Trump surrogates for
supposed crossover/access between the Clinton Foundation and the State Dept.

And the CNN hostess asked some pointed questions about it, too, such as
"Why is Clinton promising to refuse foreign donations to the Foundation
now, as opposed to a year ago?"

He didn't claim that. Some magazine like Forbes or something put it at
that. Prior to his entry in the election, I heard number between 4 and 7.

Clinton does not want anybody watching her get slaughtered
by Donald J. Trump on national TV. She'll probably back out.
She knows that if she pulls that bathroom stunt with him he'll
start making fun of her. He might even whip out one of those

Trump is far smarter than the chimp. He knows how to get rich and knows
how to cut a deal that benefits both parties. Obama is neither of
these, and Hillary is neither of these.
Both want to sit on the wealth of a nation and just spend it.

Get real. Thomas Jefferson saw the problem too, but wanted to send them

Trump is very intelligent. People just don't like his style and style
has nothing to do with it. For the most part, todays people are nothing
more than a bunch of wusses. Always wanting everthing on a silver

It boils down to good old fashioned common sense... and trump has plenty
of that. Obama just keeps putting this country deeper in debt. But if
trump makes it into the WH, all he has to do is repudiate that debt and
tell the central banks to take a hike.

I looked at the politfact site. Unfortunately, they are taking a lot of
things out of context making his statements look false... hence the free
ride hillary is getting.
And as far as the voting machines are concerned... they're rigged to
favor whoever they want to win. The votes can be skewed enough for a
win. However, landslide elections are very tough for them to commit
fraud without getting caught and thrown in jail.

I do not see how being a member of any organization could be... esp. one
where you get in based on gender, the "old boy's" network, and requirement
to say you are not an atheist(!). That is just not something which is at all
reasonable to me.

That is like saying if you allow Christians into the country they will say
biblical law trumps the Constitution. Some do, but you can be religious and
still respect the law!

Heck, you count as a qualification membership to a group that has religious
ties... helping to push religious law.

Who is naysaying it? At the same time I do not worship it... we should
follow it but also accept that we improve over time. That is what amendments
are for. At the time of the founding only rich, white men could vote (or
were guaranteed to be able to). Since then we have moved FAR forward in
equal rights. The level of improvement in that area is amazing... and has
continued even over the last few years at a pace I never expected to see.

I dislike his style and his substance. He has NO qualifications to be

He would be in so far over his head we would be in BIG trouble... but
thankfully his chance of getting to the White House is slim. Sadly Clinton's

The ONLY flip-flops are Trump saying something different week after week.

Latest flip-flop? A "softening" of the hard-line immigration stance
which was one of the earliest and most-repeated of his candidacy.

"There certainly can be a softening because we're not looking to hurt
people..."

Soon there will be a "softening" of the border wall, then of his
position on trade treaties, etc.

He can't be trusted because he makes it up as he goes along.

It's a big lie. There are many politically connected wealthy insiders
besides him, and he alone can fix nothing.

It's actually pathetic that he claims to "know the system" so well -
that means he used it to his and his company's advantage for many years.
But all of a sudden it needs fixing?

Trump lies 10x as much. In 1/2 hour he spews so much idiocy and
half-truths and unfulfillable promises that I can only sit there and gape.

The other night Trump said "I will be your agent of change." The last
politician I heard say that? Bill Clinton.

She'll get to the debates - it's Trump that will hem and haw and set as
many conditions as he can. Guarantee it.

And then you'll see who's stupid and unprepared and unfit. Trump will
resort to his shouting, idiocy, lowlife bullying and bringing up
non-issues. Clinton will simply, calmly annihilate him.

I agree with a good many of his positions (those he hasn't backed down
from yet), but he doesn't nearly have the temperament, judgement or
experience to be President of the US. Other than a year of campaigning
and lying and insulting everyone, he has no political experience
whatsoever. To me, he just sounds lost on most topics.

He'll get a solid percent of the votes, because he's an anomaly: a
blunt-talking, non-politician, successful businessman with a good slogan
("Make America great again"). That doesn't mean he's worth voting for,
or that he can deliver on his claims and promises.

She is a better liar... lying by innuendo and omission. She is a trained
lawyer and it shows. But both are grossly dishonest.

An example I use for Clinton fans is to watch her NY debate with Sanders.
Try to find ANY question she answers directly. I have yet to have anyone
point one out (I have not re-watched looking specifically for this, but if
there are any they are rare).

For Bush II and Clinton the evidence shows fraud when using older machines

You and I do not often agree on politics, but on this we do agree. Both are
disasters. Trump is horrific... but I do not back election fraud even to
block him. He is, at least, a mostly legitimate candidate. She is not.

Liberal? She is a Republican... or what the Republicans used to be.
Completely pro-wealthy and anti-general citizen. Republicans should be
flocking to her. Heck, she even had the same "luck" as Bush II to have
jurisdictions with more hackable voting machines and no paper trails lean
toward her in ways that is so statistically unlikely as to be unbelievable.

The Democrats have become the Republicans and the Republicans have become a
cartoon... a really bad one.

> I'm gonna have to write-in a Republican. Maybe vote Libertarian.

If the Libertarians were not so inconsistent and caught up in a fantasy
world I might back them... but sadly neither they nor Stein with the Green
party are really viable options either.

We have no even decent options this time around.

I am not sure Trump lies more but he lies more directly. Clinton is a
trained lawyer and is very good at lying by innuendo, using deception,
changing the topic, etc. Politifact percentages "show" her to be relatively
honest but they do not account for such things (and based on their
methodology it is not clear they should).

Both of them ran from debates with Sanders. They are scared to debate...
but, yes, Trump will be more scared.

Really comes down to Trump is Clinton's only chance... and Clinton is
Trump's only chance... and even then his chances are slim.

That is the mentality of his supporters.

She will dodge and change topics. Watch the NY debate with Sanders. Try to
find ANY question she answered. She will do the same thing in other debates
(even if not to the extent... with Trump she is facing a completely
unacceptable opponent, with Sanders she knew she was out-classed).

What on Earth makes you or anyone else think he is a good business man? I
keep hearing that but see no evidence. He is a decent entertainer with his

trolling the media. But what else?

Trump has almost no chance of winning. His only chance is that he is running
against the ONLY other person on the national stage with an almost equal
level of lack of trust and dislike.

The two parties picked the worst candidates they could... though the
Republicans really had no good choices. Somehow they managed to make Jeb
Bush look decent... an amazing feat!

Only because the banking cabal is already out for his blood. They are
very afraid of him. Going back to the gold standard would eliminate the
banking cabal for good. I remember that my grandfather around 1900 got
a $4,000 home loan from the Bank of Congress with no interest at all,
just a $30 filing fee. Paid it back in 5 years. Now that sounds more
sane than what the bankers want from you.

Besides, did you know that the banking system, the Federal Reserve, is
an offshore foreign bank?

What "these people"? They all point back to one person... and here is his
professional page at the university they claim he represents:

<http://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/polisci/professors/norpoth.html>

With that said, Trump did better in the primaries than I expected... but he
gamed the system well, trolling the media and working the fact he was
different from a mass of others who did not differentiate themselves well.

Now it is a different game: one-to-one. And on that front how much do you
think the media, who heavily backs Clinton, is going to allow Trump to troll
them? To some extent, sure... they love the ratings his antics bring the but
they are FUNDING Clinton. The same games will not work.

A lot of people, the vast majority, misunderstand the masons core
beliefs. That all seeing eye on top of a pyramid represents the God of
the entire universe, not the Illuminati. They are a good people that
also helps a lot of people. They are good organizers and get things
done properly and have for a very long time. Example: Benjamin
Franklin created the U.S. Postal Service that was made international.
Back then it was a very good idea that served well for the entire world.

A lot of Bushs' business deals were disasters. Some of Trumps business
deals failed, but most are successes.

Obama has done a terrible job. It was Hillary who first came out the
health care act when Bill was in the white house. The Obama Care Act
was just an extension to her proposals. All it did was make the Health
Insurance industry into an oligarchy where you have to pay big time for
a lot of things you don't need.
As one professor put it, "Communism only works on top of a big pile of
wealth". Once the wealth is gone you become like other communist
countries... poor. No one left to pay for their insane policies.
Look at Venezula... people are fighting down there for something to eat.

And it also has been proven correct by many other countries. It is the

Imagine if when you go to vote that you get a copy of your vote with a
unique serial number to check after the vote. It's been tried here and
the precinct committee officer was kicked out for cheating. Too many
people wanted to see if this type of system worked... oh did it work well.

I heard that one as well. Our local radio station kicked him off the
air and put Hannity in that time slot. Hannity is really ticked off at
the press lately.

DFS is pretty smart in figuring things out tho, but still can't figure
it out as to why he hasn't caught on to alternative media lately. All
of the alternatives are telling the same truth about what is going on.

whatdoesitmean.com has always been the first to report the bad news of
what is going on, but from the Russian viewpoint. But they've always
been correct for the last few years, so I have vetted that news source
to be very accurate.

Trump is going to destroy her in the first debate. He will not
hold back on her like Bernie did. He will bring up every one of her
scandals and failures. It won't matter what question is asked. He will
use every speaking opportunity to hammer her into a quivering pulp.
They'll have to scoop her up off the floor before the first commercial
break. Remember what he did to Tired Jeb, Little Marco, and Lyin Ted.
Democrats will be in tears before it's over. It will be heartbreaking
for them to watch her lose her mind and dignity on stage.

If it was me, I'd go after her right out of the gate:

"Hillary, why are you yelling? We can hear you. Holy crap." (hand to ear).

Or:

"Hillary, I like what you're wearing tonight. What is that, a pantsuit?"

Treat her with the absolute disrespect that she has earned. Take control
of the stage and put her on defense, making her address things outside
the scripted narrative. Disrespect the moderators too if necessary.
Play to the people for entertainment value. These moments will then
be replayed on tv for weeks. It will be golden.

Look at it this way. Say you have some vermin in your house that you
can't get rid of, so you hire an expert that knows how to do the job.
You don't care what color he is, what clothes he wears, how he talks or
cusses, just as long as he gets the job done correctly.
I don't like Trumps demeanor, but he is the right man for the job.

One: we might as well look at the Onion for information. Those sites are not
news sites.

Two: both sites are click-bait sites. They have so much movement and other
nonsense as to be unusable and unreadable.

Three: they make claim they do not even try to back... using logic which is
absurd. Background checks, for example, are not even close to the topic of
repealing the second amendment. It is just nonsense.

Four: They have been making this absurd claim since Clinton 1. It is absurd
beyond believe. Fear mongering nonsense.

Inheritance or gift from his dad... either way, though, he was given

His lack of plans. He has none. When he tries to talk about them he changes
from one telling to the next. Look at his wall -- how tall does he want it
to be and how much will it cost? Just look at what HE says.

He has no clue.

LOL!!! Another fabrication. Most of these organizations have already
did the pay-for-play fees to Hillary.
Look into it.

Even Judge Jeanine says that the Clinton foundation is nothing more than
a money laundering scheme.
That's how she got rich.

Also, and this is the big one, why does she get all of her campaign
donations from countries like Saudi Arabia that has the most horrible
human rights record?

Why did her opening DNC event show only Communist flags and not one U.S.
Flag?

Horse shit. That sleazy bastard sold most of our military secrets to
the Chinese. That trump noted this in his convention speeches says
volumes... now look at the Chinese military today. Before Clinton they
didn't have their new hardware to use.

Even worse, and something that isn't in the news is Japan.
Do you know what the Nippon Kaegi is?

They were the WWII cult that ruled Japan during WWII.
Now they are in power and are already changing their constitution for
the purpose of acquiring somewhere else places to live other than Japan.
Why? Fukishima is still in china-syndrome mode and can't be stopped.
Tokyo has a high incidence of thyroid cancers and other mutations in
birth defects. War is on the horizon now.

Most americans are too stupid and believe the MSM and think that they
are THE authority on all news. They are not. Through away what you
believe to be authority and start over again and work your way up.

Many of his fans think his grade school antics are "winning" a debate...
where I look at reason and logic. So it depends on what you mean by
"winning."

This might work if he was not just as bad. He is, however, better at that
type of attack... and he does not care one whit about how honest the attacks
are.

Both of those would be immediate loses to anyone looking for reason and
policies and not just grade school antics. But sure, many in America will
look at the debate like a grade school putdown contest. To them Trump will
win.

He has no real plans, he is grossly bigoted, he cares only about himself, he
has gotten where he is by trolling the media, he has repeatedly failed in
business leading to multiple bankruptcies and suffering of people, he spews
literally insane things like the Obama birther nonsense, he shows no
self-restraint... etc. :)

57 percent of Clinton Foundation money went to CHAI. What is CHAI?
Clinton Health Access Initiative. Hmm... Wonder if that's the same
Clinton? Probably just a coincidence. CHAI has not yet decided whether
they will continue to accept foreign donations if Hillary is president.

DFS knows Clinton is a liberal. Strangely, given his age, Snit apparently has no historical perspective (or is simply unwilling to apply it).

By the way, how's that Yellowstone issue going?

What 'special powers' does that confer upon her in your mind? Do you think it enables her to pull crap like this...

<http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/clinton-donor-sensitive-intelligence-board/story?id=39710624>

... while believing that people are as stupid as she needs them to be?

A "trained lawyer" with a working brain doesn't underestimate *everyone*.
