Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Disappointing. I need my joke of the day.

 

The question was hearings where Hillary looked "cool and unflappable" and "depantsed" Gowdy.

 

This is only a big story to outsiders. The feud between the political and the military is longstanding and actually came to a head weeks ago. It's embarrassing, nut only in a dirty laundry kind of way.

 

Thx.

 

Kevin McCarthy was in the corner giving him a wink and a thumbs up

Kevin McCarthy’s truthful gaffe on Benghazi

 

Sad!

 

Where was it found she broke the law ?

What do you hope to accomplish by posting the way you do ?

Is it therapeutic to unload in a one-sided way all day ?

You can't be thinking you're convincing anybody of anything here ?

What you're doing is not debate or discussion. Debate involves acknowledging when the other side makes a good point.

It's not a sign of strength to relentlessly adhere to one side-- it's just stubbornness.

This habit of 'yeah but but she does X' is one dimensional. You have more depth than that. I've seen it on the non-political threads.

 

The first graph of the lead New York Times article today:

WASHINGTON — Ending one of the longest, costliest and most bitterly partisan congressional investigations in history, the House Select Committee on Benghazi issued its final report on Tuesday, finding no new evidence of culpability or wrongdoing by Hillary Clinton in the 2012 attacks in Libya that left four Americans dead.


The first graph of the lead Fox News article:

A damning report authored by the Republican-led House committee probing the Benghazi terror attacks faulted the Obama administration for a range of missteps before, during and after the fatal 2012 attacks – saying top administration officials huddled to craft their public response while military assets waited hours to deploy to Libya.

 

The latter may be biased, but so is the former. Problem is, a huge percentage of the population only will think there's a problem with the latter.

 

Lugnuts, just do a simple google search of her cattle trades.

Her broker, Red Bone, at REFCO -- a company I used to work for -- assigned her trades at the end of the trading day.

That's not allowed. It's an easy way to give favored clients winning trades, while giving others losers. It's also a way to give new clients winners, in order to get them to invest more, at which point they start getting losers. (The broker is getting paid a per trade commission, so his interest is simply to generate more trades, which means the more money an investor puts in, the more trades he can execute on behalf of the client.)

The Clintons were assigned winning trades because Bill was the Attorney General, and was on the verge of being elected Governor. The whole thing was a pay off, arranged by James Blair.

 

They're both right, aren't they?
