I do find myself eager to read Donna's book.
I'd like to see how much of it dovetails with HRC, and Shattered.
Sorry to say, I don't have much urge to look at What Happened, I think it might be a read one page and fling it at the wall kinda thing.
Also, am watching the 2 part PBS Frontline series "Putin's Revenge".
Heads up, I'm taking an EXTREMELY dim view of how the Russian mess has been handled for years.
Grrrr.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Shit !!
Elizabeth Warren was just on fucking TV with this:
"this is a real problem but what we've gotta do is Democrats now is we've got to hold this party accountable !!"
And she said when asked if it was 'rigged', replied:
"Yes!"
Jesus Fucking Christ, Elizabeth Warren is echoing how many posts I've made here over the last year and a 1/2 and taken heat for ??
neener neener neener !!!

Hint: He's an Independent not a Democrat.
Yeah, sure, he had the dozens of millions in his backpocket necessary to just fund the whole DNC, I'm sure.
Campaign finance reform. Another part of Hillary's platform she certainly wasn't actually interested in touching.
Minimalist can't abide criticism of Hillary. He picked her over Obama and she lost. He picked her over Sanders and she lost the general election against one of the most unlikable candidates ever. After the election he tried to blame everyone but her, from Bernie supporters to third party voters. There's no point reasoning with him over this.
I didn't like Clinton, but at least I admitted that if I'd been in a close state (and had the ability to vote) I would have swallowed my pride and voted for her. I live in Massachusetts though; Clinton was never going to come close to losing here, so we voted for Gary Johnson to give a third party candidate a chance at reaching 5% and being allowed to get federal funding.

Politics is not a game for the faint of heart, Tibs. Sanders raised shitloads of money.

He still lost convincingly. Deal with it.

Good luck with that, any system of rules that contains a competitive element..like elections, will invariably become a game.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yeah, Putin...we know, we -are- dealing with it. That's the problem.

Well, boo hoo. Aren't you the guy who said he didn't vote for president in the last election?

I get all my news from AF but I'd rather get less of it from A Theist.
