Lying about your dick size is different than lying about being shot at during a visit to a country as First Lady. that's an exaggeration, but I guess if Hillary and Donald just want to lie - this is kind of a 'dick measuring' lie to her credit.... We could talk about lies that are more serious - covering up the reason for a horrific execution of an entire ambassadorial staff just for political expediency ...

DanG 1 #60 March 7, 2016 You said you'd vote for Sanders over Trump, but Trump over Clinton, and the main reason you've given is her lying. If you really prefer Trump to Clinton, it appears that being a big fat liar really isn't your problem. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coreeece 2 #62 March 7, 2016 If honesty really mattered, then we'd all be voting for Kasich. This whole thing just makes me sick.

Because the right of American politics HATES her. Why is that? Because she is a confident, competent women of the left and is successful. Same as they hate Nancy Pelosi. They hate all good Dem leaders, but they reserve a special level of vitriol for women.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

billvon 2,991 #65 March 7, 2016 >Sanders still wins that one - depending on how you score it. That would be a hard argument to make. Who tells truths or mostly truths most often? Clinton 51% Sanders 48% Who tells at least half truths? Clinton 73% Sanders 69% Who avoids complete lies most often? Clinton 86% Sanders 85% About the only way Sanders "wins" is by the pants-on-fire score - and that's a difference of one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although in that case you'd have to give Trump 50 points or so for just plain being terrific, everyone thinks so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
434 2 #73 March 8, 2016 i can understand why Hitler managed to triumph his way to power in the times after WW1, but at you guys can see any in Trump worth vote for? I don not understand. I hoped the skydiving community was a little better off than that, but it proves, the majority here at speakers corner, is actually going to vote for him. This clown is actually in your opinion going to run United States of America? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gowlerk 2,192 #74 March 8, 2016 434i can understand why Hitler managed to triumph his way to power in the times after WW1, but at you guys can see any in Trum worth vote for? And that is with you eyes open? I hoped the skydiving community was a little better off than that, but it proves, the majority here at speakers corner, is actually going to vote for him. I do not even bother to make spell check on this one. I guess you guys get what I say. This clown is actually in your opinion going to run United States of America? Trump is not Hitler, he is a populist, not a facist. I don't know why you feel the skydiving community should be better. It is dominated by white men, mostly rural or suburban. That is right in Trump's wheelhouse. Trump will not win the presidency if America actually turns out to vote. America is far more diverse than the people here. Unless the GOP's attempts to suppress the votes of those in demographics that tend not to support them are far more successful than they have been so far. Voter turnout in midterms has resulted in lopsided GOP wins, and narrow Dem wins every four years. Dems that don't bother voting in midterms deserve what they get for being too unmotivated to make the effort. In a democracy people get the leaders they deserve. America has not yet sunk low enough to deserve a clown as president.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

I think one person has said they will vote for him. Many have said they would never vote for him. Perhaps you are seeing what you want to see. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
