    This is both the most cogent and best post you’ve ever written.

    It’s a Winter Solstice miracle!

    You have goofy political beliefs, but you’ve never struck me as being stupid or ignorant.

    I assume this is why I’ve never confused you with Dooz.

    “Okay”
    “Perfect”
    “Indeed”

    Glad we got that out of the way.

    Blowhard D thinks I’m stupid or ignorant. What ever am I going to do with myself.

    Not a word that I would use to describe her.

    If you were to change the person from Obama to Clinton I might take it more seriously. I think that she was under constant investigation more so than he was.

    Listen to her talk. Not the sound bites, but her testimonies in front of various Senate committees before she was elected.

    Warren has not been a career politician.

    His argument to that is that he is spending his money while everyone else is spending money they have taken from others. "Others" who will be expecting something in return.

    Obama was so clean, his opponents went after his pastor instead. Think about that.

    I know it's abundantly clear I support the guy, but this is a pretty good write up on what has been going on with Pete. Media has been sketchy, but nothing compared to full-on hatred online. He routinely gets called racist and white nationalist by those to his left. Online is not real life, I know, but it's still insane. Whether he has a snowball's chance in hell against Trump or not I now want him to win the nomination just to knock the purity testing woke down a notch.

    “Top liberal leaders from multiple organizations are independently crafting strategies that center around three prongs: a heightened focus on Buttigieg’s checkered record on race in South Bend, Ind., his little-known work at the McKinsey consulting firm and an argument that his tempered policy proposals align with the wishes of large corporations."

    Honestly, who aren't "they" coming for these days? Which candidate/president isn't being in some way raked over or shut out?

    Warren, maybe? She seems like the one that gets the least amount of shit.

    She gets knocked for not being liberal enough, having worked as a corporate consultant and making "millions" from that. of course that figure is several years worth of earnings but that doesn't make for a splashy line.

    She gets knocked for the wealth tax on the right. she gets knocked for wanting to ban fracking, which technically only Congress can do anyway...

    Every candidate is receiving snipes and a lot of them are misleading snipes.

    She lied about her ethnicity to get into school.

    She continued in that lie in being listed as a Native American professor.

    She just bald-face lied to a woman who asked if her kids went to public or private school.

    Every politician lies. But the smart ones lie in smart ways on smart things for smart reasons.

    She’s a dumb liar.
