You, for making something up that I didn't write.
You didn't make any sense. Who's being intellectually lazy?
You, for making something up that I didn't write.
You can't find me writing that "pledging your allegiance to a party prevents you from being intellectually lazy" because I didn't make that assertion... which is why you weren't able to quote it.
Just as I said, you couldn't quote because I didn't state it as can easily be verified above.
You don't seem to know what you said.
DMC: post-election poster, nowhere to be found pre-Nov8. Worse than post-Pau lakerfan
Shouldn't it be the other way around - a pre-election poster, nowhere to be found post-Nov 8 (if one's candidate loses)? Or maybe he's like me - out campaigning before the election and comes back for election night.
Salient moment post November 8th:::when the Trumps arrived at the WH in the belief that the WH staff would be staying on. The very idea that they had absolutely no clue as to this protocol is priceless. That Media sent out this information is so pure & so victorious that my heart soars.
A Bleak Outlook for Trump’s Promises to Coal Miners
Donald J. Trump made coal a centerpiece of his campaign, holding rousing rallies with miners in hard hats, who he said had been neglected under eight years of the Obama administration. The strategy paid off, helping him score crucial wins in Pennsylvania and Ohio.
coal industry and the jobs that support it have been in decline for decades as a result of environmental concerns, automation in mining and slowdowns in manufacturing industries that burned coal for power.
no matter who is president, coal is at the mercy of market economics.
Coal’s No. 1 rival is cheap, cleaner-burning natural gas — which could become an even more potent compe or under the incoming administration.
The probable easing of restrictions on pipeline building and loosening of rules on gas exploration and production would mean more natural gas reaching the market.
Despite recent increases, coal’s price has been drifting downward for years. But the price of natural gas has fallen even more sharply.
“I don’t think the Trump presidency will have a material impact on bringing coal miners back to work,”

The coal miners know damn well they are ed and Trash was lying to them, must like he lies about everything.
My gut says that TPP stays.
China is drooling over it's death already, so they can set the rules up in their favor, and Japan is sweating bullets about that.
Oh, Trump can slow the progression down. Lots of coal fired power plants (like San Antonio has) could have extended life spans if more restrictive regulations are rolled back.
How does your gut see that happening. President Trump changes his mind and fights with a chunk of his own party and all of the democrats to force it through?
That part doesn't seem that far fetched at this point, does it?
BigCorp/BigFinance/BigPharma spent probably $10Ms on lobbyists and years to write TPP/TTIP in secret.
Whatever BigCorp/BigFinance/BigPharma wants, Repugs deliver (for a fee).
But it looks like some Euro countries are better organized than fat-ass, somnolent, conned Americans, and I think TPP/TTIP are pretty much dead in, eg, Germany.
Because the alternative is to let China write the rules, and that makes Donald look weak and ineffectual. He is riding a tiger, and falling off is not an option.
"let China write the rules"
what? China has, will have its own equivalent, legally binding internationally, of TPP/TTIP?
BUMP
Well, that was an easy prediction.
Smart move by Trump to not pursue anything here. There's no reason to make a martyr out of Hillary, and it doesn't do anything other than further divide the country.
Yeah, the writing was on the wall with that one. Same thing Obama did with GWB, although Barry never threatened to prosecute.
It's a tradition that a new Pres not prosecute his predecessor's crimes.
Which is a shame because dubya, head, and accomplices slaughtered Ms of people for BigOil
Well it's not like Trump hasn't eschewed norms and traditions....
lock her up? all talk:
http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/22/politi...ump/index.htmlPresident-elect Donald Trump's administration will not pursue further investigations of Hillary Clinton related to her private email server or the Clinton Foundation, Trump's former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said Tuesday, a significant break from a major campaign promise.
"I think when the President-elect, who's also the head of your party, tells you before he's even inaugurated that he doesn't wish to pursue these charges, it sends a very strong message, tone, and content" to fellow Republicans, Conway said in an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
Chaffetz sez he will continue harassing Hillary, nothing but a career padding move he can con his Mormon voters with.
