She tried to tie him to anarchists and questioned his sincerity.

Most clear people thinking support Trump? Huh. Okay, I think I know what I'm dealing with in terms of your mentality (I'd call it an ideology but that would give it a legitimacy it does not deserve among normal Americans).



Untrue, but whatever.

Sure she's entitled to her opinion, just as I'm entitled to rip it to shreds.
I have been respectful. That is all I have to say. Why do people with different opinions such threat to you? I believe that both conservatives and liberals should work together, and make domestic situation better.

I have been told I am hateful and stupid by many liberals, (because I agree with Trump) I don't recall saying the same thing to any liberals. I think everybody is entitled to their opinions. If you don't agree with my opinion, fine. but why attacking people's characters?

LOL @ All the apology tour folks!

Obama will not apologize for Hiroshima attack, he tells Japanese TV

Obama will not apologize for Hiroshima attack, he tells Japanese TV | US news | The Guardian

Quote:
Barack Obama said on Sunday his visit to Hiroshima, the first city to suffer an atomic bombing, would emphasize friendly ties between former enemies. But the US president reiterated he would not apologize for the devastating attack.

Obama will become the first sitting US president to tour the site of the world’s first nuclear bombing this Friday, accompanied by Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe.

In an interview with Japanese national broadcaster NHK, Obama said the reality is that leaders often have to make hard choices during times of conflict and no apologies would be included in brief remarks he is expected to make in the western Japanese city.

“It’s important to recognize that in the midst of war, leaders make all kinds of decisions, it’s a job of historians to ask questions and examine them,” Obama said.

Trying to convince these RWNJ is a waste of time, they will still call it the apology tour.


Next thread up is the Vietnam apology tour, get your keyboard ready.

From Reuters:
Quote:
Aides say Obama's main objective in Hiroshima, where he will lay a wreath at a peace memorial, is to showcase his nuclear disarmament agenda. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009 for what many said were eloquent speeches on the topic.

Obama has said he will honor all who died in World War Two when he visits Hiroshima, accompanied by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, but will not apologize for the bombing of Hiroshima. The city of Nagasaki was hit by a second nuclear bomb on Aug. 9, 1945, and Japan surrendered six days later.

Apologizing to Vietnam is a good idea. It's long overdue.

BTW...what were we sacrificing for in Vietnam?
