Comment Re:Ho, boy, you weren't listening either (Score 1) 978

I like how you parse out the paragraph right before it: "Trump has yet to lay out a detailed plan to replace President Obama's signature health reform law. His transition team did not return a request for comment." Your source is speculation at best but like I said continue to support your confirmation bias and fear-mongering with no basis in fact.

A bit of hyperbole is to be expected in the face of what's coming (hope you're health, you're about to lose pre-existing condition coverage unless you're rich enough to pay for COBRA).

Oh you mean one of the two parts of the ACA that Trump just agreed with and said he would keep on 60 minutes. I am not even a Trump supporter but the spread of misinformation and bullshit from the left at this point is absolutely horrendous. It went from sites on the right doing it to switching to the left. The man isn't even in office yet. By all means though don't let facts get in the way of your fear-mongering.

Ah I seem to be very young; I am not. Youtube videos which you clearly didn't bother to click aren't credible to you. Hey clueless the Youtube videos were videos of Vladimir Putin and Roland Dumas speaking. Not some random people. Go ahead and keep denying relevant information that you don't even bother understanding.

History doesn't reflect what you are saying. It was not a singular arms race with the US during Reagan that caused the USSR to collapse. While Reagan spoke with heavy rhetoric towards the USSR, he also didn't do much but continue covert anti-communist support and proxy wars. The arms race was simply a convenient way to make money for the MIC in the US which has always been fueling politics. And by the end of it all, Reagan had a great relationship with Russia. Here is Putin himself saying exactly what I am talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... Also since you seem to want the US to overthrow the Syrian government which is not our job. Please view this video of the French Foreign Minister saying that the Syrian Civil War is a creation of Western governments (US, UK and Israel with the support of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?... It has nothing to do with the way Assad treats his people. I have friends and family who are veterans of recent wars in the Middle East so I take exception to you think that US troops should do this and should do that. It seems you are not even American so please don't assume you know shit about what our military should do.

They don't want war. They want an arms race. Look at how Putin is prepping his public with propaganda. 50% of Russians are expecting an oncoming war with the US and/or NATO. Putin himself even said that their MIC was decimated after the collapse of the USSR and that the whole point of the nuclear deterrent is that it requires both sides to have equal strength and mutual annihilation to be inevitable. They currently lost that ability and with US/NATO missile defense systems all along Eastern Europe it is easy to imagine that this threat is easily leveraged to get Russia back into the arms race again.

That would be pretty much par for the course with the Clintons. Bill pardoned like 5 (IIRC) members of the Whitewater scandal that were convicted of various crimes. That was just a witch hunt though that resulted in 40 convictions including multiple charges of conspiracy. Just a partisan witch hunt though.
