2016 Election Thread Part Deux

The DNC is grossly underestimating the number of people pissed at the way the whole primary process was handled. The queen was crowned two years ago by the DNC and Bernie threw a major wrench in their machine. Couple that with the fact that a huge majority of Americans see hellary as nothing but a lying corporate puppet. And the biggest tick on their butt is that this buffoon is out polling her according to whichever polls you look at.

I often call you out on the first part. You reference reason.com articles as your evidence all the time.

You're missing the boat. It's OK to reference source material for ideas that are not your own. It's also fair game to reference media outlets. Saying "it's right because it's Reason.com" would be a violation, but I don't do that. If I do, please call me out.

You've done it before. I'll be sure to let you know any other times in the future.

I'm still waiting for the WMD evidence, but you better cite some credible $hit.

And no, infowars.com is not credible.

The Washington post focuses only on nuclear, they conveniently "skipped" the other weapons. I personally know people involved with finding such weapons. Very hush hush and weird.

There are smarter people on this board than me. Everybody here thinks other people are wrong and then they say condescending things. I never claim to be the smartest guy, yet I get these comments all the time and most people don't, even when they are condescending.

I make a different kind of argument than most. I point out fallacies and somehow that makes me the self-appointed arbiter of intelligence. Is it that it sounds intelligent to you, so then the butthurt in you projects this **** on me?

No. It's that most of us that are condescending choose the times when we are right to be condescending.

I dont understand this. I would think that if they did find the weapons Republicans would be waving that $hit around like cray.

It's really weird. I know a few guys that mentioned stuff going on over there years ago. I didn't believe one so much but the other guy I've never known to lie or stretch anything. Very hush hush, secretive, bizarre. Now, it wasn't some mass production or anything like that but there was plenty of old stored weapons in random, unmarked places. It's weird.

Is Johnson-Weld a Libertarian Ticket? | Cato @ Liberty

[Libertarian VP nominee] Weld, who seems like a nice man and was apparently a decent governor, is the living expositor of the difference between a libertarian and someone who’s “socially liberal and fiscally conservative.”

Case in point: this week’s ReasonTV interview, where Weld praises Justice Stephen Breyer and Judge Merrick Garland, who are the jurists most deferential to the government on everything, whether environmental regulation or civil liberties. Later in the same interview, he similarly compliments Republican senators like Mark Kirk and Susan Collins, who are among the least libertarian of the GOP caucus in terms of the size and scope of government and its imposition on the private sector and civil society.

That's what I was pointing out last week. Some knock Republicans for not passing the "purity" test and seem to give Libertarians a pass just because.

A republican that doesn't pass the purity test is just a big government politician. A Libertarian that doesn't pass a purity test is a true moderate.

The only explanation I can think of is the weapons they did find were given to Iraq by our government during the Iran war. It's hard to justify invading a country for having remnants of weapons we gave them.
