Burnt.

LOL
At least you seem to get the meaning of "analogy".

Clearly, you don't understand "low-hanging fruit", which is simply fruit that is easily picked. Demand is irrelevant.

Anyone who posts in a topic in CD either does so because they care about the subject. Your fruit theory is nothing but distraction.

I don't have a fruit theory. Well, not a fruit theory about this thread.

It's hard to understand what you actually mean.

Nope. But if my posts bother you, then feel free to put me on ignore. That way you will never have to read them again.

Even if I put you on ignore, there are still plenty of people who will correct and refute your partisan attacks.

So what's the point for you?

c) Hillary did the opposite thing (run a war room against the women accusing Bill) that she is campaigning for (women's rights)

Note to Hillary lovers, SHE is the one starting this, not anyone else.

And it's all the Clinton hater's fault? Really? Wow, this thread is really quite enlightening and mind blowing... Reading the breath and depth of hypocrisy of Hillary and her supports is like looking at the Grand Canyon. I feel like I've dropped into an alternative universe when I read these threads.

LOL um sure. Trump didn't send the text saying ALL women deserved to be heard while having run a war room against the women who accused her husband on assault. Hypocrite Hillary did. And Hillary called Trump a sexist and is playing the "woman's card" while at the same time sending the person who has the least respect for women (Bill) to campaign for her because she cannot beat Bernie in New Hampshire. Why doesn't she go there herself?

Personally, I would let the courts decide who is guilty or not and all women should have their day in court. But yes it matters if the person saying it was actively trying to suppress women from being heard.

Since a guy adulterer is hurting some woman at some point by doing it, they are sexist by definition. You can't possibly tell me that an adulterer has respect for women while doing that, can you?

I'm not hating anyone, I'm just trying to fathom how someone who a few years ago was running a war room against women trying to speak against Bill is now tweeting that all women should be heard. I'm also trying to fathom how a candidate such as Hillary has flipped-flopped on so many issues (equality for example) is even seriously running today as a Democrat. And I'm trying to fathom how you can support such as person, when there are 300 million other people who can run for President.

Can you please tell me why you would want Hillary to be president in spite of the tons of baggage she has? If you support Bernie, I would vote for him, for example. In fact, I would vote for anyone but Hillary because I don't want 8 years of constant controversy. I don't want 8 years of this: Hillary's email issues again... Hillary blaming the victims (Benghazi)...
