"Its also worth recognizing that since both parties are fully engaged in the fleecing of citizens' individual liberty, its pretty much the only viable avenue for change in their eyes. "
The broken record continues to spin on.

Well, I can attest they certainly haven't taken Esco's freedom to spew on taco. Don't know about others though.

He lives in a Red State,
I'm sure it's probably like Red China there
and it's known to harbor many right wing militia hate groups
so LGBT and dark skins walking in the wrong neighborhoods may be picked off sniper fire
As long as you're white and belong to the KKK, you'll fit right in,
and love all the liberties that they took from the others that don't deserve them

Another flip flop, gcf. Journalists really need to start nailing him down.
Kerry got a load of crap for a perceived flip flop on the Iraq war. Bush I got nailed for flip flopping on taxes "read my lips..."
But this sneak flip flops on everything!

Trump is a fool. He will make nothing great again Klimmer.
Nobody ever answers when I ask which "great again" America they believe we will "return" to.

you have to hate women in order to conclude that Donald Trump has higher "morals"
and is somehow less of a liar than Hillary Clinton
there just is no other explanation, even 10 year olds get it right

Anthony Senecal, who served as Trump's butler for 17 years and now takes groups on tours of the presumptive Republican nominee's Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, wrote in a Facebook post Wednesday that Obama "should have been taken out by our military and shot as an enemy agent in his first term,"
Reached for comment by CNN on Thursday, Senecal, 84, confirmed he wrote the post, but disputed one point, "I think I said hung."
"Either way, I don't care. Hanging, shooting -- I'd prefer he'd be hung from the portico of the White House, or as I call it, the white mosque," Senecal said in a phone interview Thursday.

Klimmer...wrong again, for crissakes man do a little research .
"The author of “Clinton Cash” falsely claimed Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State had “veto power” and “could have stopped” Russia from buying a company with extensive uranium mining operations in the U.S. In fact, only the president has such power.
At the time of the sale, Clinton was a member of the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States, which is required by law to investigate all U.S. transactions that involve a company owned or controlled by a foreign government. Federal guidelines say any one of nine voting members of the committee can object to such a foreign transaction, but the final decision then rests with the president.
“Only the President has the authority to suspend or prohibit a covered transaction,” the guidelines say."

You can't nail someone for flip-flopping when inconsistency is their hallmark. Trump's core convictions are "Trump win!" and "Trump best!" He holds all sides of every issue and let's his supporters use selection bias to fill in the rest. You're insisting that we demand integrity from someone who has none and his supporters think that's a strength.

But...but...but Klimmer, Trump ADMIRES Putin so Hillary really is on his side, just helping a friend.
Do you really believe this crap? Are the Illuminati somehow involved? Are there aliens? Sorry, there are and Trump promises to kick their sorry asses out of the country.
Edit: And as regards to that cartoonograph of an atomic explosion over a city, that would actually be an air burst for maximum damage, not a ground burst. Height of the burst would be determined by the overpressure of the explosion. Bad cartoonograph Klimmer. I post this only because you are a science teacher and would want to get it right, right?
I quote Carey Sublette of The Nuclear Weapons Archive:
"When an explosion occurs it sends out a shock wave like an expanding soap bubble. If the explosion occurs above the ground the bubble expands and when it reaches the ground it is reflected - i.e. the shock front bounces off the ground to form a second shock wave travelling behind the first. This second shock wave travels faster than the first, or direct, shock wave since it is travelling through air already moving at high speed due to the passage of the direct wave. The reflected shock wave tends to overtake the direct shock wave and when it does they combine to form a single reinforced wave.
This is called the Mach Effect, and produces a skirt around the base of the shock wave bubble where the two shock waves have combined. This skirt sweeps outward as an expanding circle along the ground with an amplified effect compared to the single shock wave produced by a ground burst.
The higher the burst altitude, the weaker the shock wave is when it first reaches the ground. On the other hand, the shock wave will also affect a larger area. Air bursts therefore reduce the peak intensity of the shock wave, but increase the area over which the blast is felt. For a given explosion yield, and a given blast pressure, there is a unique burst altitude at which the area subjected to that pressure is maximized. This is called the optimum burst height for that yield and pressure.
All targets have some level of vulnerability to blast effects. When some threshold of blast pressure is reached the target is completely destroyed. Subjecting the target to pressures higher than that accomplishes nothing. By selecting an appropriate burst height, an air burst can destroy a much larger area for most targets than can surface bursts.
The Mach Effect enhances shock waves with pressures below 50 psi. At or above this pressure the effect provides very little enhancement, so air bursts have little advantage if very high blast pressures are desired.
An additional effect of air bursts is that thermal radiation is also distributed in a more damaging fashion. Since the fireball is formed above the earth, the radiation arrives at a steeper angle and is less likely to be blocked by intervening obstacles and low altitude haze."

That's not Donald doing the terrorizing, it's his publicist, John Miller, the foremost gross materialist alive. Before that it was John Barron, who sounds a lot like Donald, too.

So it appears he's got even MORE psychological hangups / turnoffs if you can believe it. Sheesh.
