Missy89: Here we go again with alternative facts The same Republicans that call Hillary hawkish now claim Democrats are soft. Perhaps because Democrats are smart enough to think with their brains instead of their balls? 2 Likes |

oyb: I really don't like spending too much time on someone that can't reason properly. You probably have very little understanding of what you are even talking about. Most people on the far left actually think Hilary is hawkish not the republicans. By the way, Trump's policy towards Russia is not even clear yet but you are already wailing. Obama cancelled the MDP in eastern Europe, He refused to give the Ukrainians lethal weapons, He pressured Ukraine to withdraw soldiers from strategically key terrain to the east of Mariupol He watched as Russia took control of the Syria situation. Even before Crimea he made concessions to Russia to get his precious Iran deal by lifting American sanctions against the Russian military complex and agreeing not to ban the sale of Russian anti-aircraft batteries to Tehran. Obama is a democrat. get it? What has Trump conceded so far? Nothing! The only thing you have to say is that Russia helped him steal the election. a claim that is still under investigation 2 Likes 1 Share |

FBI investigation continues into 'odd' computer link between Russian bank and Trump Organization From May 4 until September 23, the Russian bank looked up the address to this Trump corporate server 2,820 times -- more lookups than the Trump server received from any other source. As noted, Alfa Bank alone represents 80% of the lookups, according to these leaked internet records. Far back in second place, with 714 such lookups, was a company called Spectrum Health. Spectrum is a medical facility chain led by Dick DeVos, the husband of Betsy DeVos, who was appointed by Trump as U.S. education secretary. Together, Alfa and Spectrum accounted for 99% of the lookups. 1 Like |

Missy89: This is the first link from hawkish Hillary fox Hawkish Hillary strikes again | Fox News https://www.google.com.ng/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/03/19/hawkish-hillary-strikes-again.html&ved=0ahUKEwjm14-5psvSAhUiKpoKHZzyBVgQFggYMAA&usg=AFQjCNETl69bAtk5QWmpZ4pTO0QjJOYaIw&sig2=UVilAYBsLOKr8zYwfnHB3Q Everything else you have posted validates my statement, Democrats fight with their brains nor with their balls. If Republicans had half the common sense of Democrats in matters of war, they would have killed Osama in tora bora. Instead, they invaded Iraq and Afghanistan. Now your Republicans are playing the same game in Syria, putting boots on the ground. This is exactly what Isis wants. All they have to do is trap and kill some marines, and the US is in another four year quagmire. The last attempt by the US to subdue Iran with military force was the Iraq Iran proxy war in the 80s. Maybe you do not remember how that eventually turned out, with a monster of Republican creation. Even Osama is another Republican Frankenstein. Obama understands when people are well fed and prosperous, they are less militaristic. It will be much more difficult to rile the people against a foreign power if there are no sanctions and people are comfortable. One of buhari biggest challenges is that Nigeria is in a recession, and so people who should know better are crying for the corrupt previous administration. If the economy was not stalled, no one would be complaining. Anyway, let's see how you tough Republicans handle North Korea, a nation with a nutty strongman who is the mirror image of your nutcase in the white house, especially as you are playing your isolationist games. 3 Likes |

Missy89: http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/09/9-11-15-years-anniversary-of-shame-214239 No one knows this better than Gary Berntsen, the CIA officer in charge of the operation at Tora Bora who, with the Afghan forces he commanded, had managed to trap the chief perpetrator of 9/11, Osama bin Laden, and his fellow terrorists in their mountain redoubt in mid-December of 2001, only two months after 9/11. With a Delta Force officer standing by his side, Berntsen drafted a message to his superiors back in Washington that he told me ended with this line: “Let’s kill this baby in the crib.” Berntsen wanted to send in troops—fewer than 1,000 Army Rangers—who could have closed the noose (his position was backed by Marine Gen. James Mattis, who wanted to send in his own troops), but George W. Bush, on the advice of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and Vice President Dick Cheney, turned him down, believing that Pakistani forces would trap bin Laden as the Afghans forced him southward into Pakistan. (In fact, the Pakistanis were likely helping bin Laden to escape.) Other opportunities presented themselves in the months that followed, in places like Shahikot. But rather than send troops into Afghanistan to eliminate Al Qaeda, the Bush administration began to massively shift men and resources to Iraq, where Al Qaeda didn’t then exist You are just one notch above the info wars weaned trumpetes. Proudly ignorant of history Meanwhile Trump and bannon are gearing up for another forever war, which is what the military build up is about. Sad that it is Mr bone spurs and Mr obese white supremacist, who have never experienced the horror of the battlefield, who are calling the shots. Get ready for another meaningless, expensive, misguided war that will only result in more hatred and a future variant of Isis. Of course you Republicans will deny responsibility as always 2 Likes |

oyb: I had a strange dream were American soldiers were killing other American soldiers to the soundtrack of Trump giving a speech. I have been uneasy since then that this military build up is actually a preparation for civil war on American soil. If that happens it will be the greatest single thing that can happen to pave the way for increased Russian influence without challenge from the US. I fervently hope this is just my imagination run amok. |

oyb: They will not only deny responsibility but transfer blame. It was G.W. Bush who invaded Iraq and who did so based on outrageous lies and yet Republicans today will shamelessly blame Obama for the situation in Iraq. And people still believe them? The world was relived when Bush's era ended and the relief will be even greater when Trump's era ends but until then he may cause more damage than G.W. Bush which is worrisome. SAD! 1 Like |

stanech:1 and 2, your guy won but you still salivate over Hillary's loss. FYI, she's moved on to the next phase of her life and I'll have you know she's a comeback queen, she re-emerges in a different and better shape than the last. If she were to run again and possibly cross the primary hurdles, I bet you she'd win. Be reminded it took a rogue FBI boss and Russian interference to bring her down at the last minutes, her early voting totals were insurmountable a week to the election before ComeyGate. She still won by 3 million. A feat Orange Führer is obviously jealous of. On 3, Hillary would win any position in New York with her eyes closed, where'd you pull that poll from. 2 Likes |

ValerianSteel: They are not interested in the setting up of a healthcare system that benefits the people. If they were, they would have a plan. They are interested in business and profit and it is obvious that they do clientele politics instead of serving America as a whole. I blame their voters who have bought into their propaganda of 'Democrats want to take away your freedom by implementing healthcare laws'. Every developed country has a universal healthcare system so that even the poorest people do not have to die like rats. This is called civilization. These stewpid people have never ever left their state or seen anything else than Republican propaganda TV and so think that universal healthcare resembles a prison. As they laid their bed so will they die in it. 3 Likes |

ValerianSteel:The Republicans have no plan on ACA except the demagoguery they are used to. See the Obama care lite Speaker Ryan came up with is a disaster already. Obamacare is not perfect but overhauling or discarding it will be tragic for millions of Americans. What we really needed in America is a Single Payer Health care like the one in Canada and most of Western Europe. If it's good for Canada and European, why not America ?. 1 Like |

Lucasbalo:As long as we keep electing representatives and Senators who live fat off big pharma and insurance companies donations, Single Payer is far from reality here. Trump said, if they can't come up with a replacement, they should allow Obamacare crash and fail, that way they can blame us Dems and Obama, but if they hurry with the repeal and replace it with an RyanCare, he says it'll be a bloodbath for them in 2018.
