And I very much respect the conclusion you've drawn.  Many others have, while still hating that we have been forced to choose between two horrible people.  You're not alone...... and again, I respect that choice while not agreeing with it.

We each have to live with ourselves, and because of who I am and where I am, for the first time since I was old enough to vote over 40 years ago and voted for Richard Nixon, I cannot in good conscience vote for the nominee of what used to be the Party I was proud to belong to.

Many life long Republicans are in the same place.  I personally find it a despicable place to be in, especially when we had men like Cruz who honored the Constitution running.

It's a dark day in America.......... and I hope I live long enough to see the light coming back out.

Very well said. I agree.
Principles matter. Words matter.

No disrespect to you personally...but that's a load of crap.

Only you and the usual suspects in here could turn a great article about Ivanka Trump into contest on who could get lower into the gutter...ending the thread with an off-color discussion if her breasts are natural.

 **nononono*    ...because she may well be the 1st female elected POTUS one day.

I posted an article and never commented on it.  So this is the first I've heard about Ivanka's breasts.

Donald's nuttiness guarantees Americans with a memory will never line up behind any of his kids for anything but maybe city council in New York.
Roy Moore's "spiritual warfare" is driving past a junior high without stopping.

I am not a Trump supporter but I may become a Trump realist when it comes down to voting. I have always been a supporter of Cruz and admire him greatly. He said to vote one's conscience and my conscience tells me to do everything to prevent Hillary from winning. It is a dilemma.

Austingirl, if you hail from the Lone Star state it is not much of a dilemma.  Trump will win Texas handily whether you vote for him or not.  Were I a true Texan instead of a winter Texan, my conscience would be clear.  I, however, hail from Pennsylvania, which means I have to watch things closely and decide on the last day.

Like hell you do.

Stop posturing and pontificating and vote for Donald Trump.   Unless you have other motives for giving the impression you're riding the fence.....being a college professor in Pennsylvania.

...which I could understand.    :laugh:

You're going to base your vote on November 8th on the polls on November 7??  Am I understanding that correctly @massadvj ?

Partly, yes.  I will factor in a number of things, including the polling.  I don't expect there to be much more clarity then than now, but I am waiting until I have all available information before I cast my vote.  Rest assured I am #NeverHillary, so if my vote can contribute to that end, I will cast it that way.

Okay@massadvj    But if you're truly NeverHillary, why risk her victory?  Why not just go and vote for Trump/Pence?

It seems like we have two completely dysfunctional campaigns.

How about this, we elect no one, leave the job vacancy empty, and just promise to be really cool to each other the next four years.

Because I do not support Trump/Pence.  I am happy to work toward Hillary's defeat, as I have done with last week's essay and this week's video.  But I cannot in good conscience support or help Trump.  I find that Mr. trump holds very few positions I agree with, to say nothing of my doubts about his character.  And there remain other avenues for Hillary to be defeated, remote as they are.

Actually, I have no doubt that the country would be better off without either of these two bozos in the Oval Office......
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.

I am furious at this attack on musiclady calling her Muslimlady....

I will have you know that her son and my husband served honorably in Iraq at the same time...during the opening invasion and other tours there...In fact my hubby kept an eye on him when he could and passed the info on to musiclady through me.....to insult her with this term is beyond contempt and sickens me.

How about MusicLady saying vile remarks about DC Patriot and DC Patriot was very ill lately from what I understand and even had to go to the hospital.

Why is the offensive behavior that starts all of this conflict always ignored?

And right before that, MusicLady carried out an unprovoked personal attack on me.

Just remember, these people say something first and cause all of these problems.

Just like when Trump is going to be called a name, NY Liberal, apparently, there is a response to that as well. Sorry if one doesn't like how it comes out, I didn't start that and Mystery-AK happened to call Trump that first and now it is all over this forum.

Too bad Hillary didn't double down like Donald-Little-hands does and say that actually it's 75% are deplorables.

Is "Donald-Little-hands" necessary for you to make your point @Rivergirl ?

Yes. Trump did win the only poll taken after the Town Hall, the Drudge poll.  A worthless poll, as you know.

   I am forever thankful to the powers that be here for the IGNORE feature.

Good, glad to see someone is religious, also, on one side, no one has to worry about being accused of holding one up to ridicule or making personal attacks.

 :mauslaff:

Must be the funniest thing I've ever read, thankfully, that feature works both ways.

Ehh....I take issue with the suggestion that Trump is in any way Native American.  No way, no how!  That would be insulting to those with Native American heritage everywhere....and I don't like being insulted.   :laugh:
