I'm sure that Russian hacking, trolling and botting had nothing to do with it.

DHS isn't looking into it.

Preach it! Absolutely right on target. K&R...n/t CaliforniaPeggy Jul 2017 #1

All eyes should be on the prize for 2018. sheshe2 Jul 2017 #10
Exactly right NastyRiffraff Jul 2017 #11
Another poster was kind enough to take the time to list all the events out, though I am sure they pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #17
What It Will Take IMHO Me. Jul 2017 #20
Here is the thing. We do not have the media. They actively redefine what Democrats say, pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #22
We Also Need Muscle Me. Jul 2017 #26
Another issue Democrats have that is just a reality. Unlevel playing field. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #27
They Get Away With It Because Me. Jul 2017 #30
A point. I am on a Democratic board, supporting our Democratic party. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #36

Good observation, pirateshipdude. brer cat Jul 2017 #46
You mean Dems actually growing a spine???!!! hamsterjill Jul 2017 #31
Good Way To Put It Me. Jul 2017 #34
I hear them speaking up all over the place. Can you be more specific about the spine you demand? Eom pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #35
An example... hamsterjill Jul 2017 #37
I hear Waters speaking this way. Others too. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #39
Yes, you're right as to Waters. hamsterjill Jul 2017 #42
How About 'You Lie" For A Response Me. Jul 2017 #40
I couldn't agree more. k&r DesertRat Jul 2017 #12
First priority: stop fascism. We can squabble amongst ourselves AFTER KingCharlemagne Jul 2017 #13
Ya? After, I still prefer not to squabble. What a waste of time and energy. Eom pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #18
Dont get me wrong. I like a good collegial squabble as much as the next KingCharlemagne Jul 2017 #24
I totally agree. Eom. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #25
Thank you. hamsterjill Jul 2017 #32
"We didn't elect this asshole." pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #21
Sam Harris' words on race, Islam, guns, etc., are twisted. This is a joke, right? Hoyt Jul 2017 #33
Why am I not surprised that you brazenly lie about Harris........ pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #83
I am not surprised one gun fancier thinks like another gunner. Hoyt Jul 2017 #85
So you've stopped in here twice to shit on my thread? NYResister Jul 2017 #54
You obviously don't know sh*t about Sam Harris. pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #65
That is a convenient way of wrapping the conversation up in isolation. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #71
I would never twist Harris' words JHan Jul 2017 #66
Thanks for the lesson in political history. :-/ pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #84
Tribalism is the problem... JHan Jul 2017 #86
In the final analysis, I think most political debate is calisthenics to no avail. pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #87
careful with deepstate narratives. JHan Jul 2017 #88
".....most of it is ridiculous." pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #89
Yes, I'm familiar with it.. JHan Jul 2017 #90
Strong post......no arguments with any of this. pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #91
i agree with him kinda on that.. JHan Jul 2017 #92
Thanks for the link....... pablo_marmol Jul 2017 #94
You're right we do need the help, massive help, from non-D party lefties and left leaners. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #28
What are we suppose to do aikoaiko? Accept their false narrative, quietly, appeasing for a vote? pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #29
You ask a good question, but follow it with unhelpful presumptions aikoaiko Jul 2017 #59
False narrative, non-truth. "I agree that the parties aren't the same" pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #60
Hyperbole and stereotypes make the base to many people's, perhaps even you aikoaiko Jul 2017 #61
I really disagree. Too many were saying that. Too many. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #62
I remember Bernie saying it was better to vote for D over any R aikoaiko Jul 2017 #63
That was not good enough. That was insulting to all of us Democrats. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #69
Again, who is us because I'm a Democrat and I was happy with what he said. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #72
Ok. Then you are insulting me also. That is why So many Democrats continually say they are pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #74
Because I'm a Democrat and have just as much say as you. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #76
Democratic Party is just like the Republican Party. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #80
Here are some things where I think they are unhappy with the similarities aikoaiko Jul 2017 #81
We have responded. Everyone has responded. How many times has Clinton apologized for her vote. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #82
You don't speak for all of 'us' melman Jul 2017 #77
Is it true both parties are the same? pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #79
What were they saying? NYResister Jul 2017 #64
That's what disenfranchisement looks like. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #67
Clinton did ask. Clinton did respond, repeatedly. At her detriment. pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #70
Then you keep talking, asking, listening, and responding. aikoaiko Jul 2017 #73
AT Clinton's detriment. You do not "keep" when it is clearly hurting. Eom pirateshipdude Jul 2017 #75
