Tell them something completely off the wall, make sure it's anti-Trump, and watch how fast they believe you without question.

as opposed to the actual poliwogs in washington who define the term "pocket change" to mean hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars... and no, it's not confined to the liberals....
just check out just how much the conservatives are being paid by the NRA to trade our kid's safety and lives for "gun rights".....



21 million dollars towards electing trump.... ya, that's some pocket change!!!



Hey you might not know this, but that school was a gun free zone, murder is illegal, and the NRA had nothing to do with the Hispanic guy that shot it up.

and why do you think that he was hispanic??? you do realize that he was adopted, and he took the name of his adoptive parents, don't you???

saying that the school was a gun free zone means little if anybody can walk in with a gun and kill 18 teachers and kids in such a short time. and, the nra is paying a pretty good penny to assure that not even the most reasonable restrictions are put into place. why was this kid allowed to buy an assault rifle, but wasn't allowed to by a handgun???

Apparently Charlie Brown was a liberal...





These people, it turns out, are operating from what I called The Gullible Mind. It is a psychological processing malfunction that filters out information based on its source rather than its integrity. People who operate from The Gullible Mind tend to have misplaced trust in governments, institutions, mainstream news networks, doctors, scientists or anyone who wears the garb of apparent authority.

But how does this work inside their heads? It's an interesting process. Gullible Mind people do believe it is possible for a government (or institution) to lie; but they believe that governments, institutions and doctors choose NOT to lie even when it would serve their own self interests to do so. Follow this carefully, because this is the fascinating part. These Gullible Mind people effectively believe that even though a government official could lie about something, they would never actually do so.

They will help any minority to use as a stepping stone(even children) to get what they want while making the majority or the masses looks like fenrsis an ravenous animals.

Like Ontario for example, first it was the Sikh an Hindu, then gays (for a little while), then a whole of genders, and now Muslims, who actually don't get along with some of the above.

Women get thrown into the mix, when men should have a rule, no women an children.
I got nothing against any one of Muslim decent, but I won't put up with Sharia law. Hell one guy I know Afghani, an off Muslim by decent,and he a party animal. Booty every where.

It litterally almost a science, like that South park troll episode an the amount of chain reactions.

Well you only criticize and hate in other people what you do not like about your own character.

What is interesting about your post is the idea of liberals "overlook the criminal activity's cause by their party". The more important question is not if liberals overlook it but why is law enforcement NOT doing their job? Unless, your entire post is meaningless hyperbole. Can you provide one example where liberals are overlooking?

I wouldn't really call that a "rise of feminism". They & their mindset has been there the whole time. People tend to forget this, but Iran's ultra-conservative Shiite govt is a reform movement that only came to power in 1979 or so. Before that, it wasn't mandatory for women to wear scarves in public there. Here's a link with pictures to prove the point.

Yes, those comments from 'within' his party were made while he was in a leadership race before the federal election. Would you like to compare with the comments that Trump's fellow republicans made about him when he sought the nomination? I sure hope so!

You are misinformed....the republican party has 10 fold more criminal activity and that includes indictments, convictions, and PRISON time.

The alt right, spin the Lib dems to be the crooked one, when in fact the Republican party has always been the most corrupt in the past 55 years, and not by just a little bit.


I was trying to cut and paste the hilights, but it wont let me do it....anyway here is a link that VERY CLEARLY shows everything that I just said...

www.sheilakennedy.net...









For the record the link you cited is basically a summary of what somewhat else started on reddit. You can find that conversation here. The person in question, who started the reddit project, made the claim that Republican administrations had been much more corrupt over the last 50 years than the Democrats and was challenged to prove it. They had specific parameters to "prove" their claim. Those parameters were the administration, the executive branch, and for 50 years. I wonder why?

You then went on to add "You are misinformed....the republican party has 10 fold more criminal activity and that includes indictments, convictions, and PRISON time.

The alt right, spin the Lib dems to be the crooked one, when in fact the Republican party has always been the most corrupt in the past 55 years, and not by just a little bit."

I wonder why that person only picked administrations, executive branch, and 50 years. Why not add the state and local political convictions? I mean if the claim is one party being more corrupt than the other, shouldn't state and local politicians be included as well for a more accurate picture? Well, I went ahead and added up the total number of convictions for state and local politicians dating from 1850-current. Reference here.

Please feel free to correct any of my numbers because I am far from infallible and have no problem correcting any errors I may have made.

**Note: I did NOT include Northern Marianas Islands or Puerto Rico since they are not actually states, but common wealth and unincorporated territory. Please feel free to add them if you desire. Any and all convictions can be proven by going to the links provided in the wikipedia link for more information on each conviction.

You can take the numbers for what they are. It doesn't appear to be 10 fold as you claim. You can also feel free to break down to total convictions for just 50-55 years if you desire. It won't change the outcome. Again, feel free to identify any errors I may have made. I will be more than happy to admit to any errors with a new post to prevent changing this post with my findings.

**Personal Opinion**
Politicians are not forced to take the office they run for, it is their choice. It should not matter what their political affiliation is because we should all be upset that they broke our trust regardless of our own political affiliation. Corruption is corruption and they should all be held accountable.

No.
Those are Justin's own stupid words, out of his own mouth, per the video.

Listen to the video again and tell me if you can figure out what is wrong with the statement Justin made...

Well I really don't think we have much to worry about yet, you really need a certain line up of circumstances to occur before the SHTF. We are not that far away, but somewhere in the group human psych , somewhere its forming. Remember this clip that they had to cut out of the film "Cabaret" when it was shown in Germany, it always makes the hair on the back of my head stand up.

This is a thread about how gullible liberals are and you throw out some completely irrelevant garbage about the ethnicity of the Broward shooter that's innacurate because he's adopted. You clearly just took your favorite "news" outlets coverage at it's word. At best.

I appreciate your dog whistle because its been heard loud and clear.
