Democratic Party Presidential Candidates for 2020

I don't believe covering up war crimes falls into the category of harming our security. I do believe that he was irresponsible when it came to redactions, however, I agree that the war crimes should have been exposed. Unfortunately, no one is paying any price for that except whistleblowers.

The problem with such exposure, especially the way he did it, is that it virtually guarantees that, if crimes were committed, the accused would never get a fair trial because the entire jury pool could be tainted.

Last night Rachel Maddow interviewed Pete Buttigieg for nearly the entire hour, and they were both brilliant! One of the best interviews I've seen in ages, with a level of discourse about politics that is rare to see on TV these days. Whether or not you're in the Pete for President camp, I recommend watching the episode if you missed it.

Interesting - seems Fox News organised a Town Hall with Sanders in Bethlehem, PA, and it went rather better than one might expect:

How wide is Bernie Sanders' appeal? This cheering Fox News audience is a clue | Bhaskar Sunkara

The US senator drew cheers from the audience when he spoke about healthcare, revealing just how popular his policies are

I watched it and it was really good. I felt that it was better than the CNN Town Hall, in spite of the host/channel.

Man, imagine how completely fracking stupid you'd have to be to agree with Sanders' policies and yet also think more Trump would be better for the country than Warren?

ETA: See this is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about when I said a while ago that I'm not picking a candidate to support directly until next year. If I were a Sanders supporter right now, I would demand that Sanders respond to the result of this poll, and I would expect him to do so by telling those supporters that they're wrong to feel that way, and that they shouldn't support him if they legitimately intend to vote for Trump under those circumstances. And if Sanders didn't respond that way, I would have to jump ship.

So I'm pretty comfortable with pronouncing Buttigieg (boot-edge-edge) but now I'm working on Chasten. Who names their child Chasten? And how did they figure out he was gay before he was even born?*






* I'm allowed to make bad politically incorrect gay jokes. It's in the Homosexual Agenda appendix.

9 times out of ten if you think you maybe should not tell a joke, you probably should not. With that in mind:

It's like naming your kid Wilbur and he turns out to be a nerd.

Or owning a talking horse.

...if you think you maybe should not tell a joke...

That option was not one I even considered.

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"

He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"

He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"

Northern Conservative†Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

So the clown car is getting fatter still. Seth Moulton from MA:

Rep. Seth Moulton announces 2020 presidential run

Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton is the latest Democrat to enter the 2020 presidential race, launching a longshot bid Monday that would make the 40-year-old Marine Corps veteran the youngest president in American history.

This is ridiculous. The last five won't even make the debate stage.
