So like, assuming the HILLARY CLINTON IS DYING OF MULTICANCER rumors are true, isn't like that a good thing for the Republicans? It means that Tim "Literally Ned Flanders" Kaine would be president instead of the Queen Alien.

Hillary has better balance than me and she's my grandma's age. I thought she was 68, not 70? Isn't Trump 70? It's also super funny that the people most likely to buy into this garbage are old people who probably slip all the time, but when they do it it's no big deal.

I mean, I think I get what Giuliani was *trying* to say which was that in the eight(ISH) years between the Patriot Act passage and Obama taking office there weren't any (MORE) RIL (I can't even type that out without gagging) attacks on US soil until Obama took office. Granted, he didn't even know what state he was in,but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt as he'd *just* been talking about Pence being at Ground Zero and he didn't *seem* to have a stroke in between those sentences. Even so, the kind of double-talk it takes to claim that is pretty breathtaking. Given that the Patriot Act keeps getting the re-up, I'm not sure how he can claim that it's all because of the Bammer that terrorist activity is theoretically up, as opposed to any number of other factors. I won't even get into the complete lack of solutions.

The number of people throwing the equivalent of "race traitor" at Clarke is kind of inappropriate. I loving hate this dude and everything he presently stands for but unless you're a black person you probably shouldn't be calling him racially charged names when there's plenty of racially neutral things to call him, like massive rear end in a top hat prick. Edit: you guys seriously underestimate how effective Republican gaslighting of the Bush years is. My mom literally doesn't remember who did poo poo in between Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II. She thinks Trump lies but half the poo poo she thinks Clinton or Bush I did.

I was able to find a bunch of other articles that alluded to Giuliani not doing poo poo, but instead of investigating it at all they just did the usual he said she said we'll never know for sure.

Of course there were Soviet spies and sympathizers in the US, just like there were American spies and sympathizers in the Soviet Union. McCarthy wasn't rooting out Soviet spies anyways, he was picking fights with political enemies and ruining people's lives for legitimate political opinions they had every right to hold as civilians outside of government. He also had the audacity to challenge the loyalty of the US Military under Dwight D. loving Eisenhower. gently caress McCarthy, especially because he's from loving Wisconsin.

The "Hillary Clinton is too sick to run for office" angle is really stupid because it operates under the assumption that Tim Kaine wouldn't still be a better choice than Trump or Pence. A very bad assumption.

Nonsense posted:It's bullshit, but they're going whole-hog with rumors she has seizures. I posted a few days ago the clip of Hannity on his show talking about this. A reporter asked a question from her peripheral vision and Hillary did one of these 'whoa, easy now' head bobs, and went a little overboard, as corny women trying to be funny can do. Listening to the faux-concern in Hannity's voice as he asked questions to the effect of "is this normal, is this a person in control of her own body?" fills me with such mixed emotions I'm not sure what to say other than Hannity is a intellectually light-weight shitbag. Dreadwind posted:http://www.villagevoice.com/news/rudy-giulianis-five-big-lies-about-9-11-6424659 I was afraid it would come down to that.

Something of a fellow-traveler, sure, but that's not the same thing. Perhaps Iron Rose was thinking of Alger Hiss, who was almost certainly an actual spy and was involved in policy-making at a pretty high level, though I don't remember him being considered for VP.

Unzip and Attack posted:HAHAHAHA it doesn't matter what Trump says, there's no way he's going to take the spotlight away from Rudy claiming such a monstrous lie unless he himself says something even dumber, which he may do out of jealousy. Giuliani was clearly talking about the 8 years since the PATRIOT act was passed (a month after 9/11). Which is a really stupid point in my opinion, but I think people need to look at the context on this one.
