If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

As one who's probably being accused of "still suckling at the teat", it's a fool's errand to try to defend the past, or to relive it. Did HRC make mistakes and profit from underhanded tactics? Yes. Did the DNC try to tilt the primary towards her winning it? Asked and answered, ad nauseum. It's their job, as has been pointed out time and again, to to back a candidate they thought could win. They fucked up...and now we have Trump.
Which is where we should be directing our efforts towards, rather than continuing to beat that deadest of horses. It's over, it's done, time to make the world a better place again."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

Every day there's a hundred things, big and small, that scream out "this is wrong". Today the Senate decided to try and ban all reporters from asking questions in the hallways, a practice pretty much as old as the Government itself. That failed. They continue to try to sneak the ACHA through the backchannels of the Senate. Hopefully that fails as well. And yesterday was the most ludicrous thing that I think I've ever seen...Trump had a cabinet meeting and basically demanded that people go around the table and say nice things about him. Reince Priebus won the ass-kissing the boss award, but the Boss did him one better by kissing his own ass, a difficult feat indeed.
White House chief of staff Reince Priebus on Monday thanked President Trump for the chance to serve in his administration and fight for his agenda.
"On behalf of the entire senior staff around you, Mr. President, we thank you for the opportunity and the blessing that you've give us to serve your agenda and the American people," Priebus said.
"And we're continuing to work very hard every day to accomplish those goals."
The comments came during a meeting in which Trump had each Cabinet secretary take turns praising him and his policy agenda.
During that meeting, the president said he accomplished more than any other president aside from Franklin Roosevelt during his first six months in office.
“Never has there been a president, with few exceptions — case of FDR, he had a major depression to handle — who has passed more legislation and who has done more things than what we’ve done,” Trump said during his first-ever Cabinet meeting at the White House."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

Ah selective enforcement of your declarations---no wonder you had no issue supporting HRC.
But just for being a dick, you're going back on Ignore!If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. - Karl Popper

Trump will NOT finish his term. I'll add, many of his appointees, staff and admin will either get fired, quit or indicted as they can't help but pruger themselves once the shit hits the fan.--------------------------------------

She was given debate questions before the debate, bernie was not--she allowed that to happen, she never mentioned it so--she's a cheat and a liar by omission--if you see it otherwise you are being willfully ignorant or willing to compromise integrity and ethics to achieve your agenda and as such have no moral high ground to indict anyone else.
You can do it, but you're being a hypocritical wanker.
But, seriously at some point you have to Let it go. You just have to!Last edited by Bernie Brewer; 06-13-2017, 10:39 PM.I know in my heart that man is good. That what is right will always eventually triumph and there is purpose and worth to each and every life.
