--- Quote from: TristanLuigi on June 08, 2016, 03:32:26 AM ---also, while hillary may not be tribal nor socialist, she is a liar --- End quote --- The argument that "Hillary is a liar" always pisses me off. That's not to say it isn't true--but she is more honest than nearly every Republican candidate. Do we just hold liberals to a higher standard? Should we? I don't know. -- I feel a little conflicted about this whole thing. I'm happy that Annoying Orange won the nomination--he's self interested, but not utterly evil like some of his candidates. What I love even more about Annoying Orange is that all the odds were against him. The Republicans hate him. The Democrats hate him. The Establishment hates him. And he wins anyway. It's a failure of democracy when someone barely anyone in America even likes gets the nomination--but also a victory for democracy when an anti-establishment candidate can sweep the delegates. |

I don't know. --- End quote --- I'm not saying she's worse than the Repubs. I'm saying she's a liar. If I see someone who murdered 10 people and someone who murdered 5, I'm not going to commend the second guy for being "less murdery." And at this point it should just be taken for granted that Republicans will lie. It's not even noteworthy anymore - if they didn't, then vaccines and climate change would not be mentioned in politics anymore. I'm not confused as to why people vote Hillary over Annoying Orange - I'm confused as to why people vote for her over Sanders. |

I did, there was a polling place in my neighborhood so I could literally walk there within 5 mins. Was nice. |

--- Quote ---“I don’t know,” Mrs. Clinton said. “Where was he when I was trying to get health care in ’93 and ’94?” The answer: “Literally, standing right behind her,” a Sanders spokesman, Mike Casca, said on Twitter, posting a photo from a 1994 news conference --- End quote --- |
