Y'all love Glenn Beck now, maybe Orly Taitz will be the next to get 'redeemed'.

I thought truthers were already a well known example of left wing lunacy. What is this shock and awe at the depths of liberal stupidity? Many inane new pastimes will be picked up by the left because, you're going to have to find something to pass the time for the next 8 years.

Oh, and I promise you it's going to be a long winter.

Now, isn't that just adorable? She targets where she wants to vacation, instead of where she needs to campaign.

You can't beat the size of those brass balls, too bad they will forever be blue. Madame Secretary, coming is fun. Try it some time. You'll find that both partners have to invest a little work in the process; otherwise you'll find yourself sweaty, tired, and dateless.

Reminder that her very bad campaign almost lost Minnesota as well.

It's like they completely overlooked Great Lakes states in terms of providing resources and campaign time.

its a bit hilarious watching the left fall into the conspiracy theory hole just as alex jones has reached a whole new level of respectability

I don't typically read liberal online talking heads but from what I've seen, the likes oh Eric Boehlert and Keith Olbermann literally say that people on the left who are skeptical of the Russians hacked everything narrative are just as bad as conservatives and are all Russia supporters who should be tried for treason.

remember when they said Iraq had WMDs? who cares what they say, it isn't important to anyone but stuck rear end loser dems

That was mostly the Bush administration's work. They exaggerated intelligence. No doubt Iraq was trying to obtain WMDs but the idea that they were succeeding in any way that the rest of the world should worry about was a result of Rummy and Cheney et al pushing that narrative.

I'm not going to pretend that the intelligence community is a bunch of saints but they don't play well together so if they are agreeing on Russian interference, then I'm inclined to lend it more credibility than some loving literally crazy person screaming about a fake birth certificate or jet fuel and steel beams.

I also think the hacks aren't what the dems should point to in regards to their loss but the idea that it's just some complete fabrication from the illuminati who really control our government is absurd.

It's mostly that it's just really hard to take the Russia blaming seriously when it's primarily from the mouths of folks who spent the past year defending every lovely thing the US does and has done internationally, election interference included.

It wasn't just them though. The CIA put out a public statement saying they believed SH was a few years into a ten year attempt to build nuclear missiles.

Seriously, the same "Intelligence reports confirm from all these agencies!" Nonsense was trotted out at the time too, and it turned out it was all these agencies reading a lovely report and not them all coming to the same conclusion separately.

Bad leadership implies she is one.

She's not. She's a nepotism case without an ounce of personal responsibility or Charisma. Kind of like a robot Kennedy but without the history of accomplishing real important poo poo or humor.
