Chair/Table - 2016

Skybird 01-28-16 06:20 PM

A wicked, mean question but - what is the alternative to Trump? Sanders? Clinton...? Me thinks these two are different from Trump - but not one bit better. Just different - but as bad.

If there ever was a solid reason for the American people to boycott elections and set ablaze congress and white house instead and chase their political "elite" :har: into the oceans, then this situaiion now is it, served on a golden plate.

And make hay while the sun shines. Get rid of those lobbyists too, once and forever.

The West has been turned into a mental asylum. Now they start to tear down the last remaining walls to the outside world.

Coincidentally I remember exactly where I was when they raised the drinking age from 18 to 21. Luckily I was just 20 days too old for it to apply to me. :woot:

Is that an option?

Only if we also replace Congress with a nice selection of Barcaloungers...

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has said she thinks that with the right political winds
— i.e. Hillary Clinton heading Democrats' presidential ticket in November — her party can take back
control of the House, a position they haven't held since 2010

She can't have it both ways ... can she?

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi repeatedly praised Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders and his campaign Friday, days after dismissing his proposal to raise taxes to pay for a single-payer health care plan.

"I think Bernie Sanders has a very positive message," Pelosi, D-California, told reporters at a news conference wrapping up House Democrats' annual policy retreat. "It's about fairness, it's about opportunity, and we are united for opportunity."
