AG Chris Christie possible Hellscape for stoners
Uruk-High:
I was definitely hoping that this was Rand Paul's year. Figured that would get the GOP tracking more Libertarian, which is acceptable to me, so I know where you're coming from. I've voted third party ticket before, but don't think I can bring myself to do that this time around. The stakes are way too high, and the Republic is on the line. I totally get your desire to sit this one out, Acid, but don't do it. I would suggest that the Hildafelon will indeed make a statement if she's allowed to win. Her statement is going to be pay to play is just fine with her, so there's going to be a fire sale on everything that makes America great - as long as she gets to line her pockets along the way. This woman is truly disgusting. I think Assange made a great point yesterday about the leaks -
JUAN GONZÁLEZ: And, Julian, your reaction to the announced resignation of Debbie Wasserman Schultz shortly after the release of these emails?
JULIAN ASSANGE: Well, I mean, that’s interesting. We have seen that with a lot of other publications. I guess there’s a question: What does that mean for the U.S. Democratic Party? It is important for there to be examples of accountability. The resignation was an example of that. Now, of course, Hillary Clinton has tried to immediately produce a counter-example by putting out a statement, within hours, saying that Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a great friend, and she’s incorporating her into her campaign, she’s going to be pushing for her re-election to the Congress.
So that’s a very interesting signaling by Hillary Clinton that if you act in a corrupt way that benefits Hillary Clinton, you will be taken care of. Why does she need to put that out? Certainly, it’s not a signal that helps with the public at all. It’s not a signal that helps with unity at the DNC, at the convention. It’s a signal to Hillary Clinton partisans to keep on going on, you’ll be taken care of. But it’s a very destructive signal for a future presidency, because it’s—effectively, it’s expanding the Overton window of corruption. It doesn’t really matter what you do, how you behave; as long as that is going to benefit Hillary Clinton, you’ll be protected.

Think about it. When most scandals erupt, those anywhere near it usually go into immediate damage control. 'I condemn these acts, this behavior is totally unacceptable, etc." As for Clinton, hell no! Not a word against, and she immediately hires the chief instigator. Truly flippin amazing, and I don't hear anyone on the left calling this stuff out. And there are still lemmings out there that will actually vote for this woman thinking she's really a good person. It feels like the media has successfully created some sort of mass delusion for these folks. That's some Orwellian shit there.
As for Bernie, oh well. Dude was full of it as far as I'm concerned. Not an ounce of integrity with that one, and Fauxcahontas Warren is just the same. They talk a good anti establishment/Wall St game, sure, but when push came to shove, they caved to the party line as quick as you can say, 'Now I'm gonna have to cover my ass and job, so screw the people.' Think about it. How sad is it that the much maligned Ted Cruz at least had the balls and integrity to withhold his endorsement of Trump, but Bernie and Warren were licking the boots of the very establishment that they rail against as soon as it was apparent things weren't going to go their way? Pathetic! They're apparently professional politicians to the very core.
So things are now far from optimal in this election, but there's a clear distinction between our two real options. On one side of the fence, the people managed to soundly kick the entrenched establishments ass and there's real hope for some change. On the other side, the people failed to win, and the establishment is looking forward to at least 4 more years of screwing the American people over for their exclusive benefit. With that in mind, both my choice and conscience are quite clear -
Trump/Pence 2016!
LOL, had to add this one -
And Free da Weed!
