Is this just over the emails scandal where the FBI decided it wasn't worth pushing charges, or is it dating back further?
View original postI don't understand how (some) liberals find it so hard to process that a lot of people hate how the Clinton's get to play by different rules. I'm sorry, but someone who should be in prison should not be our Commander-in-Chief.
It probably is safe to say that very few of said liberals actually do think that Clinton should be in prison, hence your conclusion is simply irrelevant to them...
The part about the Clintons seeming to play by different rules is, I dare say, a lot more widely accepted among liberals, which is probably why Clinton had such a hard time in the primaries when her only serious rival was espousing policies that would have seen him laughed out of the race even in most European countries, however socialist they may seem from the American position. Which brings me to my subject line.

It is pretty amazing how the Republicans managed to nominate someone who looks increasingly like the only person capable of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory against Clinton, and setting the good ol' big tent on fire in the process.
View original postEDIT Seriously, I was hoping (and praying) that Uncle Joe'd run this election cycle, because, while I don't agree with his political stances, I think he's a decent human being, and a reasonable person. Same goes for Bernie Sanders. Didn't agree with him, but he is a decent person who stands up for what he believes. Hillary is not. She has no stances to stand upon, except 'I should be President.' Hell, her speeches to Wall Street have her saying that she must have multiple faces.
There's a reason (I mean, other than the timing coinciding with Trump's tape) why that revelation got so little traction: people aren't stupid. If the worst thing she told those bankers was just something that people already take for granted even for politicians they do like, never mind for Clinton, then one wonders why she ever tried to hide those transcripts at all. And while I won't quibble too much with 'she has no stances to stand upon', the same goes for Trump (no, 'I'm awesome and everybody else sucks' does not count as a political stance), so that's not much of an argument to decide the dilemma.
