Need to up your game here.
Prove his contention wrong.

Were democrats supposed to be the party of transparency?

Would you provide any politician in living memory who hasn't.

Further who is defending? I stated pay attention, I've paid attention for several president's, while people have slung mud from one side or the other, and observed things like the PATRIOT Act, DMCA, FISA, various NDAA's, expansions of federal and executive power, violations of every amendment in the first 10. Hey but I need to up my game apparently, when I warned people about Patriot, invading Iraq and Afghanistan, about FISA, about warrantless wiretaps and electronic interception, and excessive force being used during no knock warrant searches. Republicans didn't create our surveillance military industrial complex, both did, both should be unelectable to anyone with two braincells that work who hasn't bought into the lines of BS coming from either primary party.

Betcha weren't bitching in in 2012 when Obama was re-elected, or 2008 when he was elected, or 2004 when Bush was re-elected or 2000 when Bush was elected. I've been bitching every election since 1996, because they're all s**t sandwiches just one has mayo, the other ketchup, maybe some pickle.

Hey but Trump's the tyrant, well he's not even in office yet, how's he managing that?

Please read all 15...they all apply to our tyrant-elect

You people are really freaked-out that you lost aren't you?
I especially liked #1.
Did your parents help you with this?
And what a source----Daily Kos! How many other communist rags do you read?
Too funny how the Left interprets the reason for their demise.

Oh, for crying out loud. Look at any election in our recent history or elections in Canada, Norway, Finland, Australia...

There may be the occasional politician who tries some of this, but it is the rare one who checks all boxes.

In any case, the Left is about to get a whoopin. The diminutive Robert Reichhhhhhhhh is a Socialist clown.
There's nothing to prepare you for the changes that are coming except a box of tissues!

You have me beat, by 1. I've written in my candidate since 2004. However I did pick a side in 2000 on the hope one would follow through on the 'not going to nation build' pledge.

Well, I broke it, I own it. I've written my candidate from n since.

Not much proof. As db's on other forums state, cite and source each of the 15.

Tedious, isn't it? I summed those 15 points, and the thought behind this thread, back on the first page. It's post 8 o so.

I think its funny that liberals LOVE their own Democratic party tyrants then go on crazy mode when a GOP candidate wins the white house and starts calling EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM as tyrants... Cry wolf too much liberals, way too much...

Hillary didn't get elected so your list, while mostly true about her, doesn't mean all that much.
