cyclone24 1,814 Posted February 21, 2017 I don't think most people will ever find a candidate that checks "all" their boxes. I have a list of boxes, some I value more than others, and those candidates that fill the most/biggest boxes get my votes. Me either. So at that point you just have to find a few topics that one of the candidates that actually has a chance to win can potentially take care of. I guess I'm just not sure why you're voting for a candidate drawing 5% that still doesn't check all your boxes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,660 Posted February 21, 2017 If you voted third party in a toss up state, like Pennsylvania, you're an idiot. If you did it in a red state, like Tennessee, you're still an idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted February 21, 2017 http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/aug/23/donald-trump/donald-trump-fundraising-email-takes-cnn-anchors-c/ Let me know if you need help with anything else. Glad to know I can count on you. While taken prior to Hillary announcing her candidacy, the video of Cuomo shows the clear bias of that network that they want her to run. Biggest supporter of her campaign is NOT about her book sales or giving her free media. The only thing this shows is how far back the left and media wanted HRC to run. It then continued to a culmination when CNN Employee Brazile fed HRC questionSSSSS. You guys again are trying to diffuse a bomb that's already gone off. CNN got caught helping rig an election and looking back, we see that there was an effort dating back to July of 2014. Although that article tries to explain away "we're the biggest ones supporting her campaign" & "so it better happen" as just giving her free media, that's laughable. Are we going back to wanting the definition of what the word 'Is' is? Really? Again...show me a fiscal conservative and I will side with him. I side with mostly the left right now as they appeal to me more with social policy. Neither party is doing ###### about balancing a budget or being fiscally conservative. That's laughable as well. You are pretty hard core left. Guess it comes from sitting around the house all the time, watching Oprah, Lifetime and Hallmark channels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You think abortion (even late term ones) is okay. You think it's wrong to execute people which is particularly interesting given the previous example. You'd rather let illegal immigrants stay until they commit moderate/serious crimes. You think don't want to fix our vetting process to weed out people from terror prone countries. You think there's no need for Voter ID reform. You think it's okay to defend pedophiles. You go full focking retard with anything Trump puts out.

They ought to be completely irrelevant in today's political discourse but you guys are totally infatuated with them. The bomb that is still ticking away is Trump against the MSM. Your explanation above adds fuel to that potential explosion and to be honest I don't see it. I think you have a DNC mainstay in Brazile trying to prop her candidate up over Bernie. Totally unethical. But is that more CNN or DNC? Just because she contributed to CNN doesn't mean it they were behind it. And the Cuomo quote is about air time. They were "promoting" her not "supporting" her. Jeff Zucker said the same thing about CNN giving Trump tons of free air time. There just isn't enough there....as much as you think there is....to say CNN rigged an election. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

giraldi02 470 Posted February 24, 2017 The White House blocked a number of news outlets from covering spokesman Sean Spicer’s question-and-answer session on Friday afternoon. Spicer decided to hold an off-camera “gaggle” with reporters inside his West Wing office instead of the traditional on-camera briefing in the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room. Among the outlets not permitted to cover the gaggle were news organizations that President Trump has singled out for criticism, including CNN. The New York Times, The Hill, Politico, BuzzFeed, the Daily Mail, BBC, the Los Angeles Times and the New York Daily News were among the other news organizations not permitted to attend. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/321049-white-house-hand-picks-select-media-for-briefing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
