There's a lot like You that do not know what they want!

You are insipid and vapid and specious.

Your boss called and he says you're fired!

It is a fact that the Russians meddled in our election. That's the whole point. It is not who they picked to back or who actually won -- the entire point here is that a foreign power which is not friendly toward our interests fucked around in our elections.

Why are you guys okay with that?

I depends on the degree of meddling. E.g., I'm OK with da russians claiming russian prostitutes pissed on trump. I'm also OK with da russians claiming hrc ran a child porn ring out of a pizza joint. It's kinda funny and anybody who believes those things change the outcome of an election needs a serious reality check. Am I ok with da russians hacking into email accounts? In general , no but how do you prevent that when it's done from another country? You can't. And if you're not OK with russians or anybody else meddling in our elections, why are you OK with it when we do the same?

What makes you think I do not know what I want?

Thank you. Coming from you...and considering your tastes and considerations...I'll translate that to mean the opposite...and consider it to be a cleverly hidden compliment.

You're okay in my book. I don't care what all these other people say about you.

Your boss called and he says you're fired!

He'd sooner dive into a lava flow!

You are priceless.

I do not think she was a victim of right wing conspiracies.

I know she lost...and I suspect the reasons she lost are many...with some of her own making.

I think she WOULD HAVE MADE A MUCH, MUCH, MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better president than Donald Trump.

I think John Kasich would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

I think Ted Cruz would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

I think Marco Rubio would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

I think Ben Carson would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

I think Jeb Bush would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

I think Chris Christie (cannot get over the fact that I am writing this) would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

I think Sarah Palin would have made a much better president than Donald Trump.

Frankly, I would be hard pressed to name a political figure I think would not make a better president than Donald Trump.

YOU asked me what I think about this.

I did not ask you what you think about it...because I do not give a shit what you think about it.

I sorta suspect you do not do all that much "thinking."

Good post. I'm not okay with either one. I don't care if we pretend to have a lofty goal of "freedom" and "democracy". To fuck around in some other country's electoral processes is the very antithesis of democracy.... even if those processes are rigged by whatever govt. that country has. Provide the citizens with information, fine, like we did during the Cold War/Iron Curtain years with Voice of America. But no hacking, vote switching, etc.

Agree with your first few sentences -- that shit is ludricrous and should be rejected by anyone halfway informed.

Companies pay for cutting edge computer security systems to prevent corporate espionage, hacking, etc. If they can do it, so can we with our election/voter systems. Will there be slip-ups? Definitely. But there could be a whole lot less if we put our minds to it. Either we want free and clear elections, or we're content to let the Russians, Chinese, Plutonians or others pull our puppet strings.

I'm not sure the Republicans want Russia out of our elections.
"A vast right-wing conspiracy",might not be a punch line anymore.
