  1. Yes, the DNC should be investigating the allegation of questions leaked by Donna Brazile to the Clinton team during the Democrat Primaries. Note the CNN have stated they never gave Brazile access to any questions, prep material, attendee list, background information or meetings in advance of a town hall or debate.
  2. Other than left/right spectrum being totally irrelevant in modern politics, fascism does exhibit a lot of the same characteristics of those who describe themselves as being right wing. Fascism is hostile to liberal democracy, it embraces many other right wing positions, such as xenophobia, ethnocentrism, social conservatism, totalitarianism, sexism/chauvanism, and extremely conservative sexual mores.
  3. Because the chickenshyte Trump knew there was nothing there. All his 'promises' are completely meaningless. He does like his newfound power to manipulate stocks, I wonder how much was made on Boeing stock that he screwed around with.
  4. DJIA started increasing before the election, in fact that was its highest rate of climb. It has been going down slowly over the past couple of weeks, but then this is the holiday season.
  5. Based on what? The kid had a $20k/year trust fund, big friggen whoopee-dee-doo, that is below the poverty line. I know the alt right media likes to hammer on that topic, all the while ignoring that Trump had over $300k/year trust fund, plus millions from daddy to start his business, and hundreds of millions more in loan guarantees. Your buddy Harper was far more an elitist rich boy thanks to his VP of Imperial Oil daddy. Wake up.
  6. Canada is not ordering the VTOL version.
  7. A video of one, or even several landings/takeoffs is not going to show the wear. You would need to do a much more detailed study to understand if any degradation is taking place. I believe flight decks are resurfaced after about 10,000 landings (about 2 years), and the carrier is out of commission for several weeks to complete that task. The question is will that cycle change with the VTOL aircraft.
  8. Carrier decks use special non-slip coatings that are very expensive, I wonder what the downward exhaust does to them. I believe the makeup of the coating is different on the landing area of the deck to limit wear and tear on the arresting cables, where other parts of the deck have more durable materials embedded into them.
  9. I thought the problem with the Hornets was they were not groundworthy. The canopy accidentally discharged while being serviced by ground crew.
  10. There are over 50 universities offering degrees in African-American studies programs, at least 14 of which are at the PhD level. Courses like this are nothing new, check out Northwestern that offers an "Unsettling Whiteness" course. Yes, a lot of these programs are about culture, literature, dance, etc. But race relations and racism also play a role in most of the programs as well. How about you go to Bates college and study Cannibalism as an Eating Disorder in the Conquest of America, or Screening Blackness at Cornell (screening as in film, but we know nobody actually reads course descriptions).
  11. With all the hubbub about Obama's Blackberry, what will become of the twits twitter account in a couple of weeks?
  12. New England is about 5 states (those east of New York), but labeling it as New England is an attempt to make it sound like one. It is pathetic that the alt-right try to confuse the issue by pretending that Clinton only won 2 out of 50 when in fact she won 21 out of 51. If you stick to the facts then I would not have a problem, when you present them as fabrications it becomes an issue.
  13. US healthcare is 29% more expensive because of the private insurance. Yes, if you are a rich bastard you can circumvent lines in the US.
  14. Again with the outright falsehoods. It was not just California and New England, Clinton got won the popular vote in 20 states plus DC. Why do the alt right always have to lie in order to make a point, why can't they stick to the truth?
  15. I thought that was just his way of balancing out his Air Force one twits
  16. When is an alt-righty going to express the supposed Canadian values that we can all agree on?
  17. Another complete fabrication. Lets take healthcare for instance, it is 29% more inefficient in the US specifically due to private business. The bullshit propaganda that private enterprise is more efficient has been demonstrated many times in the past. Private enterprise is interested in only one thing, raping the people to fill their pocketbooks.
  18. No, far from it. He sold off the furniture to get income, and postponed his child tax credit to a later quarter then spent millions on his bullshit propaganda about balancing the budget. That is not balance, that is a lie.
  19. This is not about Canada, this is about the Conservative party having nobody so they will latch their hopes on anything.
  20. The excuses for Trump's dismal failure have already started.
  21. Mommy, mommy, it's not my fault. My big sister made me do it.
  22. Do you give Harper the credit for increasing the deficit by $50 billion in a single year?
  23. Who is Obamba?
