Well said. I don't completely agree with what you wrote, but I like it. For instance, I wouldn't say "Most GOP are nuts", but I would probably say "Most vocal GOP and the GOP 'leadership' (  ) are nuts". I don't like playing Devil's Advocate, but I am often skeptical. I have learned the hard way not to be so trusting and gullible. Got burned too many times.

In chemistry, there's a reaction to add hydrogen halides across a double bond. A scientist, Markovnikov, came up with a rule to predict which of two possible results the reaction will yield. My organic chemistry textbook put it in very simple to understand terms:
"Them what has gets"
The parties cheat like made - for their own interests. People tend to forget that the parties are, in fact, private enterprises and not government "fair is fair" entities.
What makes me angry about the Bernie Buffoons: they're so inexperienced that they're deciding with their hormones instead of their brains. The next president will pick several supreme court justices - basically effecting everything for the rest of everyone's lives. Bernie, surprisingly silent, is going to be the next Ralph Nadar. The damage he caused by running is truly Soapbox material. He best get off his ass and explain to them that this election is for real and there's no replay button.

Did you ever here the expression "Extinction is forever" ? Your belief in the posts (ignoring, for example, HRC's commanding lead in popular vote - what good are numbers anyway?) is very saddening.
Reread my first sentence, again. Because if Hillary doesn't win, that's the way the civil rights of pretty much everyone but the big corporations will go.

The only way to throw away one's vote is by not voting. Fear, not always being irrational, is not necessarily a bad criteria on which to base one's vote.

Snopes is probably funded by federal government/politicians. That's why democrat apologists like to refer to the site. They've already got a demonstrated propensity for believing everything they read/hear from lamestream media.

As to the GOP fanatics who listen to and swallow whatever they here from their latest idol. And if the story changes? 1984's "Double Think" is her and now. (1984 is a book - we liberals, having deciding learning to read is useful, can read books).

Perfect example: you haven't the least basis for this except that you'd like it to be so in order to justify your ignoring their showing you that what you believe conspiracy theories and lies. You've dismissed them so that make the world OK again

Implication being that if you are not liberal you can't read?

Indeed. It's just that I've observed much more often from liberals displaying a I'm-smarter-than-all-yall-and-holier-than-all-yall sort of attitude.

Of course, it's all anecdotal. That's all any of us really got.

I don't have time for that. But I do stalk (just read, not post) some social networks that challenge my viewpoints. I've learned a bit. Moderated my views a bit. And I've become a little less hardassed in my own views. To the point where I've come to question a lot of my ideas.

An old couple with a cat. That's the "side" you see of "Snopes".
I would be willing to bet that the majority of their statements are probably more true when you negate what they state on different matters.
Product of the state.
