2016 elections - because it's never too early

[Syt]

Also, WTF Rush Limbaugh?

[garbon]

Oh and

Limbaugh said Trump's critics on the left were being hypocritical:

"You can do anything, the left will promote and understand and tolerate anything, as long as there is one element. Do you know what it is? Consent," Limbaugh said, in a clip published by Media Matters. "If there is consent on both or all three or all four, however many are involved in the sex act, it's perfectly fine. Whatever it is. But if the left ever senses and smells that there's no consent in part of the equation then here come the rape police."

Many took to social media to explain to Limbaugh that the rape police were in fact just the police.

And such a poor loser.

Trump campaign chair on Bill Clinton: 'we're going to turn him into Bill Cosby'

A senior Trump adviser tells Bloomberg the campaign will soon bring forward new accusers: "Women are coming to us who have been groped or sexually abused by Bill Clinton." Bloomberg reports:

Trump is considering featuring these women at campaign rallies to "give witness to what Hillary Clinton actually did." ...

On Thursday night, the Trump campaign will begin a new media blitz, his advisers say, with Broaddrick, Willey, and Jones appearing together on a one-hour Fox News special hosted by Sean Hannity. Additional interviews will follow.

The move to further amplify the campaign's focus on Bill Clinton's past relationships with women comes amid fresh allegations of Trump's misbehavior...

"She's led a program of victim intimidation," [Trump campaign CEO Stephen] Bannon told Trump staffers, according to two advisers who were present. "This has nothing to do with consensual sexual affairs and infidelities. This is Bill. We're going to turn him into Bill Cosby."

Stay classy Donald, stay classy.

... which I also just posted. Still, it must be a sign of him going senile that he thinks that sexual acts without consent is not a big deal and doesn't require indignant outrage.

I used to listen to his show all the time. Anybody who liked Reagan and Bush I, and I did at the time, thought he was great. And then sometime in the 90s I was like 'Oh wow Rush has lost his damn mind'. Clinton really unhinged the guy and I only think it got worse after that. Granted it has been a really long time.

For a guy who used to talk about self-empowerment and personal responsibility all the time this is pretty sad.

I just mentally read that Limbaugh quote with Stephen Colbert's voice and it just fits. Poe's Law never ceases to amaze me.

Well, d'uh.  Who do you think Colbert was parodying all those years?

That's why I'm saying it, Limbaugh has finally caught up with his parody

Where did you go so wrong Valmy?

[celedhring]

Has he? AFAIK Valmy is fiscally conservative. It seems to me that the GOP has just crowded out those from the party.

[frunk]

Where did you go so wrong Valmy?

Have you really not been paying attention to what the Republicans have become over the past 20 years?  I'm willing to bet that Valmy has changed less than the political parties.

Yeah it is a long story. The Clinton Years were a turning point for me. The conservatives seemed to be the people who were about empowering people and using rationality for their policy choices. The leftists seemed like a bunch of overly-emotional nutcases. But then Clinton came along and all the conservatives went crazy. Or rather maybe their craziness just became apparent to me.

Now they want to engage in trade wars, stir up international conflicts, and base all their policy decisions on misguided ideology rather than rationality. Oh and stubborn obstructionism. They went from 'Morning in America' and the can do party to the 'WE ARE ALL DOOMED' party. I swear to God half the conservatives I know now talk like they are building bunkers in their backyards for whatever fantastical apocalypse they think is coming. Our governor had the national guard watching the US military during a maneuver in case a military coup occurred. You think that crazy shit would have happened in 1988? Only the craziest of hippy fucks would have been doing that kind of nonsense.

The Democrats are a bunch of sell-outs, but I prefer sell-outs. Sometimes it is the mature and adult choice.
