M$M and FUD: YOU'RE RIDICULOUS!!! Comey, Russia, Voter Suppression had NOTHING to do with HRC Loss!!

CNN, MSNBC, FAUX filled with ignore

- Russia - ALL 16 agencies are lying about it ... these are NOT the droids you're looking for
- Comey - We "don't know" how big of an effect he made as if making ANY effect isn't a federal offense in and of itself
- Voter suppression - Another " we don't know"... you know what, they're acting as if it doesn't exist (like some left leaning voters)

[center]FUCK THAT !!![/center]

Keep blaming yourselves, make yourself feel like in the next election there CAN BE NO Russia or outside state actor influence, keep thinking a Trump will put in place a federal head that wont send another investigation memo 11 days before people vote, keep thinking voter suppression in places like Michigan where > 50% of the voting was "broken" had nothing to do with the final vote.

Look... the question of "was Hillary perfect" is a silly one with a false bar... no... she wasn't ... no human can be. How in the hell is she supposed to know she could win or lose when the referee and some of the audience are sticking their feet out to trip players on your team during a close game !?!?!?

AMERICA'S FIGHT ... AMERICA'S FIGHT Should include

Felony laws against agency heads that interfere with elections (fuckin 11 days before election day !!!)
To get the truth out about Russia and gaurd against further attacks !!!
Against VOTER SUPPRESSION !!!!

Otherwise expect nothing different other than LOST ELECTIONS were most of America votes for democrats and get Republicans !!!

Your take?

... in some states wouldn't have a tangible effect on DNC elections?

because that's what Obama asked for that McConnell turned down... protection of the voting machines and a joint statement

You STILL believe if we had the strongest candidate we can still beat hacking?

I really want to know what you're thinking,

thx in advance for your input

We don't use "Fix the damn candidates" model instead of focusing on the actual causes, because those who are insisting that the problem is the candidates ignore systemic issues. That is why they will always raise the bar. No candidate will ever be good enough. Any systemic cause will never be the reason. Then, when nothing changes, it will again always be the candidate's fault. Get a better candidate! Don't dance to that tune. Focus on the actual reasons instead, because those are based on systemic issues that need to be fixed.

Blaming the crime victim for being victimized absolves the criminal.

... to do this

Learned last night that outside of reddit DU is the most clicked political forum on the internet... I would put some good money on it that it was the Russians that hacked this site and that LPC FUD is hitting us hard for these stupid memes

Maybe he can get a gig on Fox News ala Ollie North, Newt Gingrich and all of the other disgraced right wing tools who have found refuge there.
