We're on the verge of Nuclear War... fucking World War III with Russia because of Obama and the Clintons
All of the recent Putin discussions are translated in plain english.
He wants us to know.
He wants Americans to ask What the Fuck is going on in Syria right now.
Hillary Clinton/Obama/Bush Jr./Bill Clinton/Bush Senior
They are all the same fucking person.
WAR?
Pence took a hard line against Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom he called a “small and bullying leader” who is “dictating terms” to the United States.
Gov. Mike Pence appears to have gone far, far beyond anything Donald Trump has ever said about what Trump has called his “secret” plan for Syria. But Pence knows the “secret”.
Asked how a Trump-Pence administration would stop the civil war carnage in Aleppo, Pence said that he, at least, “truly believe(s) that what America ought to do right now is immediately establish safe zones, so that families and children can work out of those areas,” and “work with our partners…[to] make that happen. Provocations by Russia need to be met with American strength.” If Russia “continues to be involved” in airstrikes along with the Syrian government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, he said, “the United States of America should be prepared to use military force to strike the military forces of the Assad regime” and “prevent this crisis in Aleppo.”

The war on coal, the Trump campaign says, is a vital part of the economic case against the Obama years. The argument: that Democrats on the national level hate coal. Trump is wrong. It is Texas and its natural gas industry waging war on coal. Trump can’t say that because he wants to win in Texas.
Although renewables have grown rapidly, they still represent a small fraction of overall power production. In fact, natural gas has inflicted far more damage on coal than wind, solar, or the U.S. government. The application of fracking, which has raged unabated during the Obama years, has liberated vast cheap supplies of domestic natural gas. The utility industry, motivated by a desire to earn profits and keep costs low, has been shifting wholesale from coal to natural gas.
Because electricity use isn’t growing that much in this country, coal and natural gas are engaged in a zero-sum game. In 2008, coal accounted for 48 percent of electricity generation, compared with just 21 percent for natural gas. By 2015, coal’s market slipped to 33 percent, while natural gas saw its share rise to 32.6 percent—a virtual tie. So far this year, natural gas is beating coal by 34 to 29 percent. Oh, and the displacement of coal hasn’t led to electricity becoming more expensive. Rather, it has coincided with electricity becoming less expensive.

Donald Trump Can’t Save the Coal Industry. His campaign gets everything wrong about its woes. Especially who to blame.

Such intelligence, such a display of critical thinking, such a joy to read, and such a smack down on those who post falsehoods to further their agenda.

Remember, Putin is a master manipulator regarding propaganda, learned while a KGB agent. That's one of the reasons why he has Trump in his back pocket.

Obviously Japan is in our hands right now. Their only lucritive industry since the mid 80s is video games.
Would you rather hear that message in Korean?
Maybe you should watch a fucking Russian "debate"?
Seriously
Go fuck yourselves.
A vote for Hillary is a vote for WWIII.

I saw an article explaining that: “A tale of two ethics” at
www.economist.com/news/europe/21707959-why-many-germans-think-impracti
cal-idealism-immoral-tale-two-ethics
Why many Germans think impractical idealism is immoral
Oct 1st 2016
The phrases “ethic of conviction” and “ethic of responsibility” mean little to most English-speakers. In Germany the equivalent terms—Gesinnungsethik and Verantwortungsethik—are household words. Pundits drop them casually during television talk shows. Hosts use them as conversation-starters at dinner parties. The concepts draw on the opposition between idealism and pragmatism that runs through politics everywhere. But they also capture a specific moral tension that is “very German”, says Manfred Güllner, a sociologist and pollster. Anyone interested in understanding German politics, on anything from the euro to refugees, would do well to get a handle on them.
The terms come from the sociologist Max Weber, who used them in a speech he gave in January 1919 to a group of leftist students at a Munich bookstore. Germany had just lost the first world war. The Kaiser had abdicated, the country was in the throes of revolution and Munich was about to become the capital of a short-lived “Bavarian Soviet Republic”. Armed with only eight index cards, Weber gave a talk that would become a classic of political science. (“Politics as a Vocation” was published in English only after the second world war. http://anthropos-lab.net/wp/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Weber-Politics-
as-a-Vocation.pdf ) The lecture ranged broadly through history, but its main purpose was to curb the Utopian romanticism then gripping the ideologues fighting over the direction of the new Germany, including those sitting in front of him.
Weber described an “abysmal opposition” between two types of ethics. Those following their convictions wish to preserve their own moral purity, no matter what consequences their policies may have in the real world. “If an action of good intent leads to bad results, then, in the actor’s eyes, not he but the world, or the stupidity of other men, or God’s will who made them thus, is responsible for the evil.” By contrast, someone guided by responsibility “takes account of precisely the average deficiencies of people…(H)e does not even have the right to presuppose their goodness and perfection.”
Yanno what, SECOND? This exactly describes why you should vote for Trump.
Now, I've decided my vote not on the basis of who is the nicest because, as I've said many times before, but on the basis of what is likely to happen as a result of my vote.
So here's my first consideration: Almost all of Hillary's great plans for domestic reform and revival will come to naught. You can forget the Post Office Bank, tax reform etc. I know it, she knows it, and you should too. How do I know it?
Well, look at Obama. He had GREAT plans - or said he had great plans- for us:
No more war.
Most transparent ever.
Affordable healthcare for everyone.
Economic recovery.
Close Gitmo.
Enact the Buffet Rule - higher taxes on the wealthy.
Citizenship for the undocumented.
Fully fund Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
Recognize the Armenian Genocide.
Eliminate all oil and gas tax loopholes.
Include labor and environmental standards in free trade agreements.
Require publicly traded financial partnerships to pay the corporate income tax.
Close loopholes in the corporate tax deductibility of CEO pay.
Create a foreclosure prevention fund for homeowners.
.... I mean, that man has made so many promises this is just a PARTIAL listing of everything he's promised .... and not kept.
It sounds just like the current Democratic Platform, doesn't it?
Out of all of that, he as accomplished very little .... and he was a POPULAR President with- at one point- A Democratic Congress solidly behind him in a moment of crisis. A historic moment, totally flubbed.
Now we elect Saint Hillary. Remember that, AS PRESIDENT, she ca

Guess I'm not the only one:
Quote:
This whole thing has pretty much taken me off the fence of deciding whether to vote 3rd party or stay home. Seeing the incredible push by all of the DC power-brokers to have Trump withdraw over this has convinced me that it's not an act. TPTB really are scared of him and desperately want Hillary to win.
That's good enough to convince me to vote for Trump. I wonder if any others like me who didn't really buy the hype had a similar reaction. I would guess yes.

I think it's time you disabused yourself of that pleasant little fairy tale about our fearless leaders being some sort of surrogate daddy or mommy, laying awake at night thinking about how to protect the kids. HA! In reality, they're thinking about who to sell them to so that they can get a few more shekels in their pockets.

Utah Senator Mike Lee said the Republican Party had to find another candidate or it would not win the White House.
But why does that translate to "You should vote for Hillary"? It doesn't, actually. If you really wanted Hillary to win, wouldn't you continue to want Trump in the race?
So how come you're now supporting Republicans? Does this mean that you, really, would prefer an "establishment" Republican over Trump, or even Hillary? Does this make you an "establishmentarian"? And how do you justify your own cruelty?
