I can agree with this statement, instead of getting caught doing something and saying 'well what about so and so' he should worry about himself. However Hillary has gotten away with a lot of things in her political career. When I was still active military I had a secret level clearance and if I had done 1% of what she did I would be rotting in a prison awaiting trial if I was ever given one. So it's a bit of a hypocrisy for one politician to have their feet held to the fire while another skates around with a smile on their face and making jokes about what they got away with.And a unqualified president keeps bringing up Hillary
Unfortunately this statement cannot be proven with fact because only a small amount actually manages to come to light, and even then we don't know if it's true or not. And again it's kind of funny to me to hear the left preach about gun violence and protecting the kids when they advocate abortion that kills 100x more children than guns every single year.Yes there are a few democrats that are scumbags but they are vastly outnumbered by republicans that claim to be the party of family values.
Right or wrong, most all men brag in 'locker room talk'. Not excusing it at all, but to be honest I don't think it's true. President Trump has to always be the bigger badder man so he talks a lot.Our current president bragged he can grab women by their pu$$y caught on tape.
My only opinion here is Clinton did it while in office, President Trump did it before he was in office. Both men were wrong but at this point it's petty digging up of anything anyone can find to discredit him.The right never seems to get over a single blowjob democratic president Clinton received from a consenting 22 year old intern.
Yup!
Unfortunately, probably not. Where as I like to think that all the 'bad' ones will be voted out it doesn't seem to happen very often. Maybe in a swing state but you probably won't see much change in solid red/blue states. Like we discussed in the other thread, most people do not take the youth of this generation seriously because if the things that they do and plaster across social media (cinnamon challenge, condom challenge, tide pod challenge). We also remember when we were 17 and knew everything, then grew up a little and got some real life experience, not the sheltered safety net experience from school; and learned that just maybe the people older than us were a little wiser and knew a little more than we gave them credit for.Those that fail to show up or answer questions will soon be looking for another job.
How long will it last once you start eroding away at the bill of rights? Europe went after the guns in the 90's, now they are after the knives, and you can be arrested for things said on a social media platform. So how long will our democracy last? How long will the freedom of speech and freedom of press last in America? The fed has got this idea that 'they don't need guns anymore', when will that change to 'they don't know what is good for them, they only need to hear what we think is right'? It is a VERY slippery slope once you willingly give up your rights and freedoms.Our democracy has checks and balances with a free press.
The same "justice" department that said "Clinton showed extreme carelessness, negligence, and broke the law on more than 12 instances by knowingly transferring classified material to her private server.... but we recommend no charges filed because 'she didn't mean to break the law'."? After that I lost all faith in the FBI in being a non partisan extension of whatever administration is in power. Maybe all the people who commit mass murder should go before the FBI and say 'I didn't mean to break the law'.justice department has other ideas.
I wish they would, and I wish they would run every corrupt politician out republican and democrat alike. But the only problem is that most politicians are above the law, you see it day after day. Where as I think you are misguided on the details 'it is those damned republicans, if they weren't around we would live in peace and prosperity', I like where your hope and principles lie in 'getting rid of the corruption, the people will clean up the government'. But the truth is: as long as they are PEOPLE, that is to say, imperfect humans, that are in charge over governing other people, there will always be corruption, favoritism, bias, racism, segregation.Follow the money!

Keep in mind I gave my two years of service to my country when called.
Is it because corrupt republicans vastly outnumber democrats and the present republican controlled government is so corrupt, and incapable of governing?

1830 – President Jackson (D) signed the Indian Removal Act into law. Under this act, Native American tribes living east of the Mississippi were rounded up and marched to camps farther west.
1830’s – The US Supreme court ruled in favor of Cherokee Indians in a suit against Georgia. The ruling said the Cherokee Nation could not be forcibly removed from their homes. Andrew Jackson overruled the decision and the Cherokee people were rounded up at gunpoint and forced out. One in four Cherokee people died during the inhumane journey which became known as the Trail of Tears.
1840’s – The Democratic Party adopted the doctrine of manifest destiny: the idea that white Americans were divinely entitled to dominate the North American continent.
1857 – The Democrat-controlled Supreme Court approved the dreaded Dred Scott Decision, which declared that black American’s were “not persons but property” and therefore had no rights.
1861 – The Confederate flag was created by the Democratic party.
1865 – The Ku Klux Klan was started by Democrats to murder Republicans: black or white.
1868 – Democrats in Opelousas, Louisiana killed nearly 300 blacks who tried to foil an assault on a Republican newspaper editor.
1919-1921 – Under the leadership of Woodrow Wilson (D), criticizing the government became a crime and a fascist organization, the American Protective League was formed to spy on and even arrest fellow Americans for being insufficiently loyal to the government. More than 100,000 Americans were arrested, with less than 1% of them ever being found guilty of any kind of crime.
1922 – Democrats successfully stop Republicans from making lynching a federal crime.
1932-1972 – The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment
Feb. 19, 1942 President Franklin D. Roosevelt (D) signed an executive order that led to the forced removal of some 112,000 Japanese-Americans, most of them U.S. citizens, from their homes, to be relocated in internment camps.
1950 – Alger Hiss convicted of perjury. Hiss, who helped advise FDR at Yalta and was strongly defended by the Left, turned out to be a Soviet spy.
1963 – Birmingham, Alabama's notorious Commissioner of Public Safety, Democrat Bull Connor, used attack dogs and fire hoses on children and teenagers marching for civil rights. Ultimately, thousands of them would also be arrested.
I could go on and on, but to what avail? Do I expect Howie to see the light as I did and leave the Democratic Party? Sadly, no.
Maybe it's time to put this thread to rest.
Two years? Congrats! You want a participation trophy?
I'm guessing that once the Democrats have a majority in congress and the same smell comes from Washington will you still be saying the same thing? The two party system is so corrupt and you refuse to see it. Doesn't matter who is in power, the left is only there to balance the right. Both sides are screwing the American people and getting richer and more powerful, but you're so bought into playing the blame game and having your head buried between Chuck's legs that you only see what they tell you to.telcoman wrote: ↑Fri Apr 13, 2018 5:52 amIs it because corrupt republicans vastly outnumber democrats and the present republican controlled government is so corrupt, and incapable of governing?
Just look at the number of republicans choosing not to run in the mid term elections.
You don't need to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.

All the warning signs for what is happening now has already came to pass. Some of it happened in Germany in 1930's some of it in China in the 1950's but you're just marching along like a good little sheep and not seeing the real problem. I don't support the republican or democratic party, because neither of them are there for me and I am smart enough to know it.

No, because Hannity never paid or retained him. Asking for legal advice from a friend doesn't make you a client. I've walked through Neiman Marcus twice in my lifetime without buying anything, does that make me a frequent customer?
