Democrats (although, admittedly, not Hillary herself) shat more on the mother of the Benghazi soldier after the RNC.

Whether one supports Trump or not, I think the reverence due the parents of a fallen soldier is kind of void after they exploit his death as part of a political campaign against him.

I hope Melania rapes someone next and Trump attacks the victim too - this would show what a horrible person he really is for sure!

Wouldn't that make Trump: a c_u_c_k?  :hmm:

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Pretty bad politics of the Republican nominee, gotta say that. Never shit down, always try to shit up.

But this is Trump so it'll probably help his polls with his neanderthal base  :lol:

So it's fine only when Democrats do that?

Conventional wisdom is that it is bad PR for *insert American presidential candidate here* to insult grieving parents of *insert dead public official here* 

However, it could be claimed that said grieving parents have inserted themselves into the political arena and are thus now fair game. As in everything, context matters.

Well, we don't really care for militia soldiers to kill federal officials.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I thought the folks killed in Benghazi were all civilian contractors.  Not uniformed services.

By the way are we actually going to have debates in this campaign? After one candidate called on the other to be spied on by the Russians it just seems so...unlikely to be civil. But maybe that is what twitter wants to see.

If Hillary refuses to participate on principle she'll immediately be branded a wussy.

Looks like Trump is the wussy. :lol:

I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Donald Trump has 'black soul', says Khizr Khan



:unsure:  No, that doesn't sound right.  I was thinking maybe he should have said "Trump has a dark and twisted soul", but then:



That's not really Trump either. 
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

How did you quantify this?

They were neither.  They were Diplomatic Security Service personnel.
