How many people were against Super PACS? How many people are actually for medicaid for all? These two things are great examples how politicians lie to the voting public, and do whatever THEY want instead of what the public wants.

Here is one point. When you recognize the results of an election, accept the fact that Trump won, however unpleasant that may be, and just get on with it, then maybe you can dust the soap box off again and talk about how the right is the root of all evil.
BULL.

I never said or even hinted at any such thing.

it appears we are evolving from 3 branches of government to 4. It could be called a silent coup by the bureaucrats to take over the power. They are the rogue element in D.C.

So, instead of Executive, Legislative, Judicial branches, we now have another rising to prominence -- the Bureaucratic branch.

It's powerful and pretty much does its own thing.

There's a person from the left right above your post who IS admitting that rhetoric absolutely plays a part in violence...a person I never agree with...and you can't figure out what we are saying?

Are you completely incapable of saying: Yes, the rhetoric plays a part in all of this.

And stop trying to spin it into something else. If you are unable to do so, please, tell me now, point blank, so that I may gloss right over anything that you say in the future and not waste my time.

You all blamed Trump during his entire campaign for his rhetoric and stated that was the reason for the violence at his rallies. (Which we later discovered was actually started by paid protesters.)

Now you want to say, "He was a lone crazy man, nothing to do with rhetoric". Knock it off.

SMH

You really are the one who doesn't get it. Doesn't get the level of hypocrisy and doesn't get how you representing yourself.

Politicians work for us. Hope they remember that. They never cut their benefits, deluxe insurance package and nice retirement pensions. They seem to be the first to undermine the American taxpayers. No wonder the man went ballistic. Expect more problems with American voters if you keep working against their interests.

I'd bet the same re: Dylan Roof and conservatives here.

What is your point?

I'd love to see some of ya'll Facebook posts re: Obama, Pelosi, Clinton, etc. THAT would make for interesting reading.

Demonic-rats?

Yup. All that hate and terrible rhetoric is coming from the left, correct Three Wolves?

To the OPs question, no. I get all of my news from mainstream sources and I'm pretty up to date on the whole issue. They aren't bombarding us with information, which is fine. I like to be updated only when there is something to be updated with. Perhaps they bombard us with information in the past with similar events, but that's stupid to do that.
Another example for you Three Wolves.
