Go Ahead and Lie To Me . . .
What are those pathetic people supporting Hillary telling her? What are her corrupt superdelegates telling her? What is that strange woman who used to be Rachel Maddow telling her? What are Chris Matthews and the other reactionary robots at MSNBC telling her? What are Markos and his feeble frontpagers telling her, what are so many sorry ass people who can't handle the truth telling that posturing plutocrat princess?
Lie to me.
Go ahead and lie to me.
That's what they're telling her . . .
[video:https://youtu.be/3tigVYfHVmQ width:500 height:333]
The Hillbots told her that in Iowa, they told her that in South Carolina, they told her that in Arkansas and Alabama and Arizona, every braindead brick in that fabulous firewall we heard so much about told her that, from the rigged primary state of New York to the rigged primary state of California.
And they're still telling her that.
Lie to me, and tell me everything is all right.
That's their mantra, that's their dogma, that's their creed. Lie to me about your Iraq war vote, Hillary, and we'll ignore all that blood on your hands, lie to me about mass incarceration and we'll pretend you deserve 70% of the black vote, lie to me about pipelines and for profit prisons and the TPP and we'll hail you as a progressive hero, lie to me about super predators and super delegates and the Super Tuesday votes you suppressed, lie to me about the rest of the primary results, lie to me about all of it so we can say you "won by 3 million votes".
Recycle the old lies, run them all by me again and tell me some new ones, lie to me at the podium, lie to me at the press conference, lie to me on the plane, lie to me about your speaker fees and your server and your missing emails, lie to me about what you've never done and never will do.
And I'll just make believe everything you're telling me is true.
Go ahead and lie to me.
It's become the sordid tradition of half the Democratic electorate, they rewarded Bill Clinton for lying to them and the Lie To Me Parade began, they rewarded Reid and Pelosi for leading it and clapped louder, they rewarded President PrettyWords for leading it and told us all to clap louder, and now Hillary Rodham Clinton is the clap louder leader of that Lie To Me Parade.
From the throne of her It's My Turn float way up front, the Anointed One has issued a proclamation, we've been informed that we can tag along at the back of the parade if we behave ourselves.
Well that's not going to happen.
Why?
I'll tell you why.
Because every four years the billionaires and the bankers and the warmongers and the wealthy keep telling us the same damn thing--Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss.
Not this time. From now on We the People are going to do the talking and the billionaires and the bankers and the warmongers and the wealthy are going to do the listening. That Lie To Me Parade has gone on long enough, it's going to come to a screeching halt, and if barricades is what it takes to put an end to it, then barricades is what we'll use . . .

Good for you! What state are you in?
Life is strong. I'm weak, but Life is strong.
Thanks! Kentucky. I signed up at Jill's Web site
here: http://www.jill2016.com/ballot_access
[Fair warning: They email a lot! But in a way that's good, that means they're getting on top of things for a serious run.]
You can see at the link all the states where they need help. High priority right now (we have until September to collect our signatures): Nevada, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Georgia.
I don't even know yet if I'm going to vote for her! But I would like to have the option for a third party if Bern isn't the Dem nom, and I want that third party to be viable, not just a spoiler, actually have a chance to win.
Edit to add: And I don't see it hurting Bernie for the Greens to be on all state ballots.

In Wi I can write in Bernie
In Wi I can write in Bernie and it will count, I can also consider Jill. But no way in hell for the other 2. If we can hold the 10 mil + that voted for Bernie Next cycle anything is possible
hit the post button twice --sorry for the dup post
Something to consider.
If Jill Stein does much better in 2016 than she did in 2012, people will know supporters of Sanders are the reason. That will say something, whether anyone admits it publicly or not. Write in votes don't get reported.
You may want to consider that as you think about voting in November.
You are most welcome, Mimosa33.
This is a wonderful community, it's a privilege to be able to write here.
I hear you...
I have had the great fortune of having three very smart kids. My proudest accomplishment is that I have taught them how to think critically. I would say in raw intelligence, my daughter is probably the smartest. But in perception, my middle son is the most perceptive. My oldest has the most empathy. It is a real struggle for my middle son, because he sees things as they really are and he, at the ripe (ed) old age of 21, has become extremely cynical. As a parent, you want your kids to have hope for the future. But the kids today don't see unicorns and flowers awaiting them for the rest of their life.
Democrats, we tried to warn you. How is that guilt and shame working out?
Oh and...
Happy belated Birthday!

Complain to the manager at Walmart if he is on their property.
People outside Walmart are supposed to have permission from Walmart. If they received that, they probably didn't tell them their true intent. Unless the Walmart manager happens to be a bigot, they won't want that divisive crap outside their doors. They'll tell them to leave, and if they refuse, call the cops and have them arrested for trespassing.

Yes.
Maybe it can.
Even in a fit of despair, I'm stubborn in my optimism.
I guess that's an oxymoron or something, but to hell with it. Ya gotta start somewhere.

We are stoic optimists.
I always thought of myself as a pessimist, best be prepared for the worst imaginable outcome. But I have discovered under that skin an optimist, who can find silver linings in trash bins. So I continue in that flow. We sound similar.
Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.
That sounds about right.
I always say prepare for the worst, but hope for the best.
And beware the self-fulfilling prophecy. If we think we can't, we won't.

I like the creative approach to your essays Rusty
indeed lies, lies, everywhere lies. Let's hope some truth to power is spread around out there too!

A Hillary tribute from the Who

used this song a lot for walker in WI --it fits for any bad politician
Well that's right on target.
Thank you, Alligator Ed.
You'd have to be insane
to believe Hillary.
Gëzuar!!
from a reasonably stable genius.
But she got 3 million more votes.
According to Hillaryites, REALITY doesn't mean a damn thing compared to that.
Dick Cheney is praising Hillary now.
Link . . . Dick Cheney heaps praise on Hillary
Maybe he's trying to get Hillary...
to pick him for VP.
The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?

Washington Post hammers Hillary on email issues
Link . . . Hillary's email story continues to get harder and harder to believe
What?! Are the rats starting to leave a sinking ship?
Wow! WaPo get this aggressive in criticizing her Heinous! They probably know something we don't know and are trying to get ahead of the curve--in other words going down to the bottom with Medusa. Maybe they something about imminent indictments. Maybe.
I think you're correct!
All the MSM news is now paying attention to this. Even being mentioned on ABC, CBS and PBS Newshour. The AP, Washington Post, The Hill, Wall Street Journal are regularly starting to post articles. They either smell blood in the water or they already know that indictments are coming. I'm going with indictments are coming and they don't want to appear to be downplaying the inevitable. They have all tried as best they could to ignore and downplay this story. Perhaps, they can't downplay it anymore.
Can't wait to hear about Huma Abedin's deposition. That should be an interesting transcript to read!
“Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.”
George W. Bush
I think they are...
Just making sure she is wounded when she takes office. Don't want her to feel like she has to through any progressive a bone. Immediately start working with the GOP congress on TPP, Keystone, privatizing SS and Medicare and for goddsakes we need more war in the ME. The elites really don't want Trump - they want Hillary. But they have to have a little bit of insurance to make sure she stays their puppet.
Democrats, we tried to warn you. How is that guilt and shame working out?
Sharks are like alligators when they smell blood in the water.
They come to feast. Right now they know two things:
1. Hillary is going down.
2. They don't know who the Dems are going to try to push down voters' throats at the convention--but it won't be Hillary.
Ha! Her Heinous! Another good one. eom

Considering the history of the Clintons
There has been too much smoke for too many decades, more than a few strange deaths (another one last week) of people in the Clinton web, too rapid acquisition of wealth and power, for there not to be fire. They sure have made many enemies along the way. So many enemies that I am surprised they have skated so long. Whining about enemies from the Right endlessly, poor victims of success, has Bill lasted longer than the longest term of a Godfather?

Love "President PrettyWords"! May I use that?
Obama does give an awesome speech, no question.
