Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 He was losing me before that but that moment cemented it. This is very sad but he has to live there and clearly, his family is not safe. Imagine having to shake the hand of your father's murderer! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 If anything, we should use these reports, erroneous as they might be, in order to light a proverbial fire under those who still refuse to vote or who can't decide who to vote for. I've said it before, I'm saying it again, and I'll keep on saying it past 11/6: if I can get off MY ass for once and vote, then you have no excuses not to do the same. None. Once again, if this surprises anyone in the audience, then some of y'all ain't paying attention. NBC is trash. And so is Megyn Kelly. But we knew that already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 Didn't Van Jones also make a backhanded compliment about Michelle Obama? I tend to believe that the Republicans have more enthusiasm, because they pretty much always do in recent decades outside of one or two cycles, but that doesn't make the blatantly biased reporting any better. "Purple wave." The pure joy in that text. They may as well have said "eat the libs." I know Andy Lack wants to. That Haberman tweet where she is so impressed with Trump's political callousness is something we see over and over with Beltway types. They are so divorced from reality. Chris Cilizza used to tweet that type of stuff all the time too. They can't see humanity anymore. They probably never could. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 She's right I didn't hear about this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 So reading that Tom Bonier timeline, a couple more things. Early absentee ballot voting in some states is only available to certain populations(seniors, military personnel). Funny how none of us hear about that. And while I do hear more reporting on the voter suppression, I hear nothing about the violent right events. Startling considering the murders over the past 2 years have been primarily from white supremacist/KKK/Nazi's - Charlottesville, the 2 indian men murdered in that Kansas bar by a white man, the 2 men on the train in Portland Or who were defending those 2 young muslim women and the 2 men were murdered, and I won't include Las Vegas shooting or the school shootings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) It's disconcerting that so many people in power are touting these conspiracy theories. It's becoming the norm. No wonder someone put a bomb in GS's mailbox. The right have been making him into a bogeyman for years now.

Members Khan Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 No, there's no proof that there are Middle Easterners in that caravan...but they just gotta be there (to infiltrate and then kill us all), they just gotta be! I just had the loveliest conversation on FB that ended with me calling one of my FB friend's FB friends a "honky." So, clearly, this is a hot-button issue for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 Hell, maybe he SHOULD have sent Michael Bolton instead! I'd trust Mr. How Am I Supposed to Live Without You more than I would old John. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 Michael Bolton! I'm tired, y'all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 23, 2018 Members Share Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Oh, no. Don't let "Mike" Bolton include that on his set list. We don't wanna put any wrong ideas in the Russians' heads. (Other songs to leave off: "Soul Survivor" and "Said I Loved You...But I Lied.")

Members sivad40 Posted October 24, 2018 Members Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) This is from Never Trumper David Frum that MSNBC loves to trot out posted this. "If Trump’s opponents stand opposed to policing America’s boundaries, they will not help immigrants—they will only lose votes." https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/10/caravan-challenges-integrity-us-borders/573691/ Edited October 24, 2018 by sivad40 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 24, 2018 Members Share Posted October 24, 2018 Maybe because a link between The Proud Boys and the Heritage Foundation was recently discovered? Of course, the press can't be relied upon to actually do some research to verify whether or not this is the case. Just more rhetoric on caravans thousands of miles away from any U.S. border. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
