This is the music I picture @sinkspur  and @musiclady, et al will be listening to late on the 8th of November....just them with the scotch.

....and the Kleenex.       :laugh:

Just for the record, I don't drink.

And also for the record, I will be mourning on the 8th of November, as I am now, because no matter which of the two main candidates win, the country will have lost.

But as for my conscience, it will be clear, and I can live the rest of my life knowing that I didn't succumb to the pressure of fools to vote for a corrupt, amoral, leftist like Trump.

As for Bennett, anyone who is so arrogant that he thinks he can shame people whose conscience will not allow a vote for an amoral liberal into doing what they know is wrong, has lost his own sense of "virtue" and his reputation for truth telling.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Back to your old name-calling, eh DC?

I guess if that's all you have in response to a thoughtful post, you gotta go with it.  Right?

I didn't expect anything different.  I never expect anything different from a Trump loyalist.

Derision is pretty much all you do these days.

Can't wait to see if some of your cohorts in ridicule jump in and cheer you on.

Your gang of 8 has become quite predictable.

Either works.

He doesn't live by a moral code, so whether he's deliberately defying God's laws, or is unaware they exist and living outside a moral code is unknown.

To simplify for you.......... he's not moral.   And is proud about it.

That says it well,  Never Trumpers are nasty individuals, they probably can't even be trusted to be conservatives or pro-GOP.

The only reasons third parties can't win is because people like you refuse to consider them and would literally vote for anyone with R. Even Hillary Clinton herself!

It's a mystery how the Trump caucus claims they're, seeing how much they act like asses.

I won't be here after the election and vote.

If Hillary wins - I will be busy, BLOAT! (It won't be long before she won't let you buy.)

If Trump wins, I won't be here to GLOAT. (I don't want to hang around while everyone looks at every speck in his eye.)

Selfish?  To who?  You and the Trumpkins?

YOU elected this clown.  YOU get him elected.

Nobody is entitled to my vote.

You ready to do a 180 on amnesty, DC?  Looks like that's coming on Thursday.

Hmmm,  "I believe in actions, not words."     Have you seen him have an abortion?  I didn't think so. So therefore, according to you, he isn't pro-abort. And if he isn't pro-abort, then he is pro-lifer.   Enjoy!

I agree with @jmyrlefuller ~ ?? WTH? ?
America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign. -Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

A supporter of the nastiest human being to ever run for president now accuses those who don't like his nastiness of nastiness. 

I'm getting the impression, Tom, that whatever you do for a living can't be that hard.

Trump puts himself above country. This whole scampaign is nothing more than a source of income for him as he spends 45% of what is collected paying himself, family and his own companies.

Exactly right.  We tried to prevent this disaster and now are being blamed for it.

We bear no responsibility for the downfall of the Republican party.  The alarms were sounded and were ignored.

This mess lies squarely on the shoulders of the supporters of the leftist creep who will now lose to Hillary.

I'm sorry, but that's about the purest example of psychological projection that I've ever seen.  Are you sure you're not just describing yourself and your Trumpist ilk?
My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.

LOL!  You're looking really desperate, Sink!

It won't be a 180 from me, either, because I fully expect an accommodation of some kind.

Come on DC you're much smarter than the average Trumpster and certainly know by now that what Trump says changes from day to day.  To think that he's going to appoint conservative justices borders on being delusional or downright stubborn. There is no present indicator or past track record that gives a compelling reason to feel he will do anything except swing left and go about his liberal ways.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Donald Trump told Mark Halperin yesterday that his sister, a federal judge, would be a “phenomenal” Supreme Court justice. He also said that “we will have to rule that out now, at least.” If he ever becomes president, let’s hope he rules it out permanently. Maryanne Trump Barry came up in my book The Party of Death for writing one of those heated judicial decisions in favor of giving constitutional protection to partial-birth abortion. She called a New Jersey law against it a “desperate attempt” to undermine Roe v. Wade. It was, she wrote, “based on semantic machinations, irrational line-drawing, and an obvious attempt to inflame public opinion instead of logic or medical evidence.” It made no difference where the fetus was when it “expired.”

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

My sole point was that I'm on record as saying in the Summer of 15, that he wasn't going to deport them wholesale...and wouldn't be surprised if "The Wall" isn't completed.
   

And no matter how dark you want to paint Donald Trump....he's a ray of sunshine next to Hillary.
