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

It's a blessing, for sure!

I'll respond to you, here, since I'm not familiar with you or your style.   Giving you the benefit of the doubt...ONCE!

I could be flip...and just say, "Pot, kettle, black!"   All one needs to do is pick any 'card' (thread) in the POLITICAL category here...and simply read any page you choose.

They are loaded with posts referring to Trump supporters HERE....and of course, in general, in the most insulting and creative ways imaginable.

Go get the facts...and if you feel like it, get back to me.

The rest of them can go straight to hell.  I don't know them anymore. 

peace.

WE apparently never did know you! But we do now!

Hillary and her basket of deplorables or Trump and his basket of deplorables.  Either way it is a basket headed for hell.

When I heard this this morning my opinion was that Hillary really stepped in it.  This might fire up the base a little, but undecided voters are not going to like it because she is not attacking Trump, but Trump's supporters.  And liberals are supposed to be the tolerant and kind people who hate labels.  She revealed herself here, and it is not pretty.

I realize a lot of people on this forum have also attacked Trump supporters, but none of them are out asking for votes from uncommitted voters.  Personally, although I am uncommitted to Trump, I prefer to criticize Hillary to Trump.  She is far worse than he is, and the ratio of threads in this forum that attack her versus him is shamefully low.  Even on this thread, we have a number of people actually defending her. 

What the hell?

MuslimLady and others should learn by example or some people may end up getting a suspension.

What a strange insult and idiotic name to call a Baptist, born again believer Tom.

(I think I'll report you this time.  It's really despicable).

You've one-upped DC's stupid "Mucuslady" (misspelled, of course) with this nastiness.

I'm beginning to think that you're actually trying to look like a fool.....   **nononono*

I agree that many posters would rather attack Trump than Hitlery. She is evil and not worthy of defending. And she knows what ISIS is praying to Allah for. She is more hateful and outrageous by the day. She gave uranium to Russia and supports the Iran deal, destabilized the Mid-East, and lined her pockets with foreign money.

And don't point out her apparent health issues that 71% of doctors are concerned about on this site. Oh, no.

I think that's because Trump, as a Republican nominee, is supposed to represent us, and he's humiliating us instead.

Hillary's evil has been long understood.  Trump's is newer because until recently, he was on the same side as Hillary.

I have seen improvement in the Trump campaign with Kelly Ann Conway running the show. Trump is extremely flawed but I have such a visceral repulsion toward Hitlery for so many reasons,  I think he is less of a danger to the Republic.

Unfortunately, whether he is less danger or not is debatable.

There are well reasoned people who believe he has signs of mental illness, and if he is ideologically leftist (he is), and insane, he is arguably more dangerous that she.

Either way, even in the best case scenario, this country is going to have a horrible person in the WH next January (or, shall we say, ANOTHER horrible person in the WH).

Where is Trump's apology to the Khan family?  To Judge Curiel? 

Hillary is a normal human being.  I disagree with almost everything she stands for and will not vote for her.

Trump is nuts.  Crazy.  In addition, he is ignorant, with no intellectual curiosity about anything but himself and what other people write and say about him.  Just last night, he's threatening to blow up Iranian boats that are harrassing an American ship.  Now, that may be just bluster, but no president in my lifetime throws out nonsense like that.  It's just crazy ridiculous behavior.

We cannot afford an incompetent like Trump anywhere near our White House.  I will not vote for him either.

Aaaand another insult.

I've reported both Tom's and DC's overt (and really nasty) name-calling which is supposed to be against the rules.

Apparently there is not a Mod on duty, or the Mods don't mind if certain people do nasty things the rest of us can't do.

@mystery-ak @Mod1 @Mod2 @MOD3


It's kind of important for some of us to find this out........

Is calling me "mucous" and "Muslim" now acceptable on this forum?  I never report anything (cause I'm a grown up), but I'm reporting this, as requested in order to keep the forum decent.

Geez, Sink!   "Apologize" to Khan and Curie?

Is that going to change you mind about Trump?   :silly:

It's amazing what persona you've made for yourself with this "nevertrump" commitment of yours.   Looking at your posts, you're no different that Rachel Maddow.  Fact is, she's got nothing on you when it comes to dedication to a cause/ideology. 

You actually defend Hillary Clinton here.

It's rather disgusting for a political site that...at this time in the calendar...should be, if not supporting the Nominee enthusiastically, at least not defending the opponent.

Read it and weep



http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/hillarys-health-concerns-serious-say-most-doctors-polled-by-the-association-of-american-physicians-and-surgeons-aaps-300325065.html

LOL!!!

Quote
The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) is a politically conservative non-profit association founded in 1943 to "fight socialized medicine and to fight the government takeover of medicine."[3][4] The group was reported to have approximately 4,000 members in 2005, and 5,000 in 2014.[/b]

There are 854,000 practicing physicians in the United States (https://www.statista.com/topics/1244/physicians/).   And, according to your article, only 250 of the 5000 members of the AAPS responded.

So a poll of  .029 percent of the US medical community is not convincing to me.

Here's a little more about the AAPS:

Quote
The association is generally recognized as politically conservative or ultra-conservative, and its publication advocates a range of scientifically discredited hypotheses, including the belief that HIV does not cause AIDS, that being gay reduces life expectancy, that there is a link between abortion and breast cancer, and that there are links between autism and vaccinations.......

........AAPS argues that individuals should purchase medical care directly from doctors, and that there is no right to medical care. The organization requires its members to sign a "declaration of independence" pledging that they will not work with Medicare, Medicaid, or even private insurance companies.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_American_Physicians_and_Surgeons

In other words, they're a bunch of fruitcakes.

You do realize that this was an "informal internet survery" of 250 supposed doctors, which means it's worthless.  It was in no way a controlled poll.

Normal human beings apologize when they offend other people.  Hillary apologized.

Trump has never apologized for ANYTHING he's said in this entire campaign.

Trump is dangerous.  The most dangerous human being in America.

We've survived corrupt presidents.

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.
