    while there's a lot that needs changing, I've yet to hear a Trumpite name for all the countries they'd prefer to live in given how terrible they believe this one to be.

    I "vote for Johnson" at least twice a day already. Last time I did that at my local polling place, I was placed on a watch list.

    So let me get this straight ... this Huge Leak that was supposed to blow everything wide open ... is some Clinton voters complaining that the DNC was too nice to Sanders, and some messages leaving a callback number?

    Dennying what? I've been saying for months that political parties are in the business of selecting members of that party best suited to be in the general election. That is the entire purpose of the party organization. You and the Bernie bots are fools if this reality surprises you.

    The President's former "Special Envoy to the Global Coalition against ISIS" says it all. That there is a top posting, right up there with military attache to Monaco. Note that the Gulf States dropped out of the "global coalition" because we were doing only slightly more than diddly but less than squat. Obama purged a lot of our effective generals and replaced them with ones that will lead the fight for transgendered/transracial/transpecies inclusiveness.

    And sure enough, General Allen started thundering that we must include all genders and gender orientations. He's an embarrassment to the Corps.

    It's fun to watch an arena full of paid actors cheering a serial rapist and chanting for his enabler. :)

    You'd think Hillary was giving an acceptance speech for the award for "World's Worst and Most Uninspiring Speaker".

    And then he began to read about what she's done, and he became politically aware. She is the most corrupt and unprincipled person by far to ever be nominated, and that includes Presidents who owned slaves. She took in wads of cash from Nigerian oil barons and in return protected Boko Haram, which since then has killed over 22,000 black people, which is about six times the numbers of blacks lynched in the South during the Jim Crow era.

    But hey, she made lots of money off of it, so it's all good.

    Kurt Schlichter in Town Hall

    The Coming (And Hilarious) Democrat Implosion

    Republicans fear a repeat of 1992, with a squishy Bush at the head of the ticket watching helplessly as some populist businessman/novelty act hands the election to a Clinton. But Democrats should fear the far more likely repeat of 1968.

    Ah, the 1968 convention … just thinking of it brings a smile to the face of every normal American. Let’s start with hordes of Chicago cops kicking the psychedelia out of dirty hippies. Footage of all-American flatfoots clocking VC-flag waving pinkos with nightsticks is more erotic than a hundred “Fifty Shades” books. Just thinking about it makes me want to light up a Marlboro and cuddle.

    You know you want to read the rest. :D

    Who's he?

    Regarding Clinton and Boko Haram:

    Part 1

    Troubling ties
    NIGERIA | Under the Clinton State Department, influence from big money donors appeared to thwart efforts to combat Boko Haram—efforts that might have saved thousands of lives

    Part 2

    Fatal connections
    NIGERIA | As the Clinton-led State Department dragged its feet against Boko Haram, Clinton Foundation donors made millions from Nigerian oil fields

    That's what happens when greedy and unscrupulous government officials are for sale to the highest bidder.

    Well her son-in-law is a major hedge fund manager (and insider-trader) and she's in bed with Goldman-Sachs, who pays her a fortune for secret speeches, so of course the big banks own her.

    Why would Trump want hedge-fund money? Also donating to Hillary and not Trump: Nigerian oil warlords who back Boko Haram.

    That's what Jeb! thought. In reality, Trump has soared past Hillary while she was spending a fortune and he wasn't spending anything.
