Just read an article that said we are expecting armed "militia" to show up at polling places.

Armed "militia" at elections and no national health care system, congratulations, we are now a third world country.
 
A good read for anyone wanting some clarification on the confusing claims about the emails.

In my mind, no real wrong doing to be concerned about.

But it sure does bug me that stuff like this keeps coming up.

Qatari officials pledged the money in 2011 to mark the 65th birthday of Bill Clinton"

Been for a while, just making it official.

She carpetbagged her way into my state and disregarded everywhere that isn't home to NYC commuters. She was a terrible advocate for New York State during her 8 years of "service". I will not vote for her.

Jesus.

Oh well, no talking his way out of that conviction, considering he reportedly admitted to the cops that he didn't had no way of knowing if the kids he pulled his hogleg on actually did anything to his precious $2 sign.

Say goodbye to your gun, dumbass. Apparently you couldn't handle the responsibility.

All I can say it that there is something about her I just don't trust. She just rubs me the wrong way for some reason. And I can't stand her grating voice....

At least that's an actual, valid reason not based on abject bullshit.

Congratulations, that puts you in the top 5% of her detractors.

Large swaths of the American South have been that way since their inception. They had a brief era of prosperity when they enslaved a race of people to do actual work for them. But it wasn't sustainable..
 
I have already voted. For Hillary, and all the down ticket people I could here locally too. Now, the thing that bugs me after more of this crap comes out, is not that much of it holds any water when you really look at it (the violation about the Quatar donation is annoying and should not have happened, but I don't think it amounts to much in perspective), is that she knew she had her aspirations and ambitions to govern, and knew she had enemies that would come after her with whatever they could find to tar her with. So why not put a tighter leash on all this crap!? The emails I give her a little pass. Not many people treated emails completely according to protocol back in the day. People just did not think that way. The foundation stuff is not really her deal. She was pretty removed from it. but given her ambitions, and her obvious distrust and secrecy, you would think she would have said, "Hey, I am taking a run at president here. All you people tighten your practices up and don't give the bastards any ammunition." But apparently the communication must not have been that good.

Not that any of it means that The Donald is a rational choice, and these matters are still false equivalency at work. But I still find it annoying.

I think you are the only person with a legitimate gripe against her. That and any other New Yorker who shares your reason.

I went to Radford. I worked at a convince store where residents of Floyd county shopped. You aren't telling me anything I didn't already know :grin:

I don't remember much of anything she did in the Senate. I think she had something like 1 piece of legislation that she introduced pass...renaming a court house. If anything it seemed like she was just biding her time in a stepping stone office.
