    There is an interesting video of Gen. Wesley Clark on youtube explaining that by Sept. 20th, 2001 the G.W. Bush administration had already made the decision to go to war with Iraq despite them having nothing to do with 9/11.

    I lost friends in that ill-gotten campaign for nothing.

    Had saner heads been at the helm, the world would be a distinctly different place than it is now...

    Gays also support dems who will protect them like being given special protections as a protected group.

    Well that was before last Sunday morning.

    They just will not be depending on Obama and the left to defend them.

    Obama failed big time this time around.

    Oh but yes you do. If you saw cadets of a flight school in Perth are disproportionally Arabic, you knew somethings' up. If you saw an airport with an unusual amount of Middle-eastern wearing gortex gloves pushing trolleys , you knew somethings' up. But I don't think you, as an Australian, are half as qualified to discuss gun-control issues. The more pressing matters to you, is the skyrocketing housing prices driven up by the Chinese.

    Trump is leading Hillary? Must be a Breitbart poll.

    Oh Christ! Just more of the same inane blathering that I previously responded to where you portray a monolithic image of " Democrats as coddling Muslims, despising Christians and victimizing women, blacks and Latinos, while failing miserably to address any of the points that I made. We're done here. I rest my case

    On the other hand there are a great many people who haven't a clue about what's going on in the top echelons of their government.

    Americans are now being attacked in America since Obama's withdrawal from the ME, and this often has justification from leftists.

    The attitude from the White House on Homeland Security can be found here. http://dailycaller.com/2016/06/13/s...world-for-god-is-a-homeland-security-advisor/

    Expect that to continue. Last time she ran for President she was beaten by an unknown Black Senator from Illinois whose only job description was "Community Organizer", without naming the community he organized.

    This time around she was almost beaten by an unknown 'Independent' Socialist from Vermont and might have lost were it not for loyal "Super Delegates". who have weighted votes in the Party.

    While the electorate did vote for Barrack Obama a second time I think you underestimate their intelligence of you think they'd vote for someone like Hillary Clinton. She'll be exposed along the way, for sure.

    I'll agree that "religious nuts" are dangerous. Hundreds, and thousands of years ago, every major religious system in the history of mankind went through very violent, intolerant, dangerous periods. Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, and even Hinduism! BUT, only one (ONE) of the world's major religions is a clear and present danger today (TODAY), and that is violent, extremist Islam!

    We can, and should, learn from the past and not repeat the errors (thank you, George Santayana), but we must deal with violent, tyrannical Islam today (TODAY). It is Islam that goes around murdering people who won't convert to it! It is Islam that continues to treat women like beasts of burden and/or sexual amusements. It is Islam that will throw you to your knees and cut your head off because you don't believe like they do. Can we at least agree on something as obvious as this...?

    Yours must be a very peculiar variety of Christianity if you regard it as "hocus pocus", or in opposition to physics and science. Moreover, I would challenge your completely unsubstantiated observation that "Christian right wingers bear false witness like water. They slander, they backstab....". Your comment makes me wonder what you must think of Comrade Obama, who lied through his dripping teeth to cram Obamacare down our throats. False witness?! Obama qualifies as "a Father of Lies".... Parenthetically, have you gotten your $2,500 in Obamacare savings this year, or last year...? Unless you're on some kind of welfare suck, this monstrosity has been of no good to you at all!

    What point of comparison is "like water"...? Are you suggesting that Christians believe that water is a lie? Are you suggesting that Christians aren't charitable ("And if you are ill or broke or ?, don't go to church looking for compassion.") ? I have serious disagreements with the Roman Catholic Church about a lot of things right now, ,especially after the legitimate Pope was thrown out and replaced by a socialist entertainer. But, any of us would have to admit that even it contributes enormous amounts of money running homeless shelters, soup kitchens, free medical clinics, etc., etc.

    To sum it up -- yes, Judaism and Christianity have strongly disapproved of homosexuality, and hundreds or thousands of years ago, people were killed for being homosexual by those in the Jewish and Christian communities. BUT, who is conducting these big murderous "jihads" against homosexuals TODAY, in the 21st-Century, where WE must deal with them?! :eekeyes:. Still, if you want to rant and rave about what religions did long, long ago, and try to equate that with what happened in Orlando five short days ago, then be a typical myopic hyperliberal and have a ball! :smile:

    The difference of course is she is now the presumed nominee. Sanders rally was that they support Clinton to make sure Trump not be allowed to become president. If Sanders supporters decide to support Clinton, game over for Trump IMO. It won't necessarily translate to a landslide for the Dems, but they will get the majority for Hillary to become president.

    I think it is a sad time in the U.S. when the BEST the GOP and Dems put up is Trump and Hillary. Sad indeed.

    HEY, MUSLIMS, keep your MURDEROUS JIHADs to a dull roar like Christians have learned to after these thousands of years?


    SAVAGES.



    Is Obama truly a Kenyan communist, sent to destroy the USA? That seems a wee bit like bearing false witness like water.

    A good analysis. There may be a lot of people staying home out of disgust for both but that would probably work in Trump's favor. His supporters feel more strongly for him than anyone does for Hillary. She does not debate well and her past will certainly be on display. Trump's past is far more positive and people are more likely to take a risk on him.

    If Hillary makes it past the Convention, which is now becoming an open question, I think she could lose big.

    Would you rather that followers of a religion suppress murderous rages (assuming that they do exist), or, would you rather that they "act them out" by going on bloody binge-killing, featuring rape, shootings, throwing people off of roofs, and beheadings? Hint: I didn't SAY it is a perfect world. What I SAID was that, today (TODAY) only one religion distinguishes itself by committing the acts I've named. Mankind is considerably more civilized today in 2016 than he used to be with one exception -- ISLAM!

    Hey, if YOU know a way to time-travel back, say, a thousand years so that you can prevent nearly all the violence committed by other religions in ADDITION to the violence committed by Islam, please go back and get it fixed for us. Then we can all live in Utopian bliss in 2016. How soon can you depart...?! :clapping:

    The Muslim who murdered 49 people in The Pulse Nightclub in Orlando was a Democrat.

    What the hell are you talking about? That does not make any sense! You seem to be ignorant of the fact, or in denial of the fact that Republicans are opposed to any and all forms of gun control.
