My cognitive abilities are limited, I acknowledge -- it took me awhile to recognize what an unredeemable douchebag you are, a quality not limited to your board persona.

Yes, which is why it's ridiculous to point at Sanders on this.

Note that he has actually voted against some of the subsidy bills in the past -- before he decided to run for Prez, of course.

Do realize, a lot of Rs are trying to give the party to Trump these days, for fear that an asshole like Cruz might take it over instead.

I was speaking of farmers, not the Senator's legislative record. The joke, such as it was, was that an actual hard working farmer would hardly support a socialist like the Senator. no, the only "farmer" that might support a socialist is one who likes getting free handouts from the government rather than working.

Ok, fine. But I AM a member of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association.

"Great men are almost always bad men." Bonus points if you know the author and the much more famous quote that preceded it without looking it up.

They all suck because only narcissistic sociopaths would seek this job through our application process. Interestingly, Trump appears to be non-partisan. There is a study out now that shows his supporters' commonality is that they are authoritarian over all other traits, which I think most of us are not.

Regardless, if you think bookies know anything, he is the 2nd favorite at +375 after Hillary at -155. Bernie is now down to +570. Rubio is + 650. Everyone else is over 13-1 (Cruz). Hillary to me at -+155 is a bad risk. There are over 100 FBI agents investigating her on 2 or 3 fronts. They won't want to accept that it was a fruitless Bitchhunt (all marks and rights to me if no one else has coined this term first).

Those numbers all sound about right to me, as does the analysis on trump's supporters. No bets screaming out to be made here.

Those FBI agents have pretty much been on the job since Gingrich was speaker. Those that hate her think she's lurking behind every corner, probably hanging out under your bed ready to grab your gun. Those who don't just shrug at them. The interesting question is can anyone come up with a good commercial hitting her on investigations that won't backfire.

You should put a (tm) after Bitchhunt(tm). I'd suggest you get hank to register it and use the (r). I'd bet he'd even send out some letter for you trolling users. Think about registering a variation with just one h too.

Like Capone, she'll go down because of the money. I bet it'll be the "pay-to-play" money trail to the Clinton Foundation that is more likely to lead to her indictment, rather than her giveaway of top secret information to the Russians and Chinese.

While this is true, the current occupant of the White House does seem to be far less sucky than the recent options.

Like, Dems knew about Slick Willie's issues, and know about Hillary's, but choose to ignore them because politics.

But what scandal, shame, dirty dealing or crass political calculation can we put on Obama? I guess drones and Gitmo, but now we're talking about a failure to be as idealistic as we'd hoped, not selling out his political soul or anything.

There's all kinds of room to disagree with his policy choices, but he does not seem to be crook. And yet there's a huge swath of America that's outraged at his "tyranny."
