I don't know what the motive behind the Orlando incident was. Only one that knew died. I do know that he wasn't member of any Islamic fundamentalism group. He wasn't trained by single known terrorist organization. By occam's razor the simplest explanation is that he did what he did because he was mentally unstable.Quote:

Due to his teachings that gays were sinful to the point of deserving death, he might have hated himself for being gay to the point where he wanted to kill as many as possible in a suicide mission. That's still Islamic extremism. I don't believe in coincidences in matters like these. Occam's Razor and all that.
The Obama Administration excuse of, "We don't want to give the terrorists what they want by acknowledging their ideology" is just that -- an excuse. In reality, leftists are so afraid of provoking "Islamophobia" that they bend over backward to avoid telling the American public the truth.
Remember the despicable removal of ISIS references from the Orlando 911 tapes?
That's the type of Administration we just had. Better to lie to the American people about the real reason for terror attacks (and censor any evidence showing it) than allow people to think badly about Muslims.
Awful.
Also if we go by your previous logic Orlando really shouldn't matter since you nor most americans don't frequent gay clubs.
This was FBIs explanation for redacting mention of ISIS from the tapes, “Part of the redacting is meant it not give credence to individuals who have done terrorist acts in the past. We’re not going to propagate their rhetoric, their violent rhetoric and we see no value in putting their names back out there,” he said.
They didn't work too hard in suppressing the truth nor did they lie by releasing a partial transcript´, but it's nice Paul Ryan worked real hard to give ISIS the credit they didn't deserve. I'm sure that's really helpful.
Yea not even most, not even in number of deaths. Last 2 years have been good for islam related deaths though. We can keep tweaking your argument about what you meant by "all mass killings" to get to a somewhat truthful or at best not completely false statement. It's possible that we can even avoid just saying that "all muslim related killings were muslim related", but if that's what we need to do we will go there.Quote:

Muslims are 1% of the population in the US. They are responsible for most of the mass terror attacks in this country.
Wouldn't you say that's a problem?

'It was arrogance' — Clinton staffers explain how she lost key battleground states
http://www.businessinsider.com/why-c...consin-2016-11
Reminder: Team Hillary raised a BILLION dollars for this campaign.Quote:
Hillary Clinton's campaign ignored pleas from staff members for the candidate to boost her efforts in Michigan and Wisconsin, two unexpected battleground states, the Huffington Post reported Wednesday.
The two states, considered safely Democratic by virtually all pollsters ahead of the election, swung for Donald Trump on Election Day, securing the Republican his shocking victory.
In Michigan, which Clinton is on track to lose by about 12,000 votes, one senior operative said her campaign's canvassing operation was one-tenth the size of Democratic candidate John Kerry's in 2004.
According to one organizer, the campaign sent canvassers to a trailer park in Flint, unaware that the park had burned down, the Huffington Post reported.

According to one organizer, the campaign sent canvassers to a trailer park in Flint, unaware that the park had burned down, the Huffington Post reported.
"It was arrogance, arrogance that they were going to win. That this was all wrapped up," a senior operative told the publication.
Meanwhile, in Wisconsin, local campaign officials were forced to raise $1 million in last-minute get-out-the-vote funds after Clinton's national campaign declined to provide it, operatives told the Post.
Clinton's Wisconsin office also reportedly lobbied for the campaign to send African-American surrogates to boost Democratic turnout in Milwaukee. Clinton received 39,000 fewer votes in Milwaukee County than Barack Obama did in 2012, and she lost the state by about 27,000 votes, thanks to lower turnout in three key counties.
"There are only so many times you can get folks excited about Chelsea Clinton," a Wisconsin Democrat told the Huffington Post.
Trump, for his part, ramped up his efforts in Michigan in the final weeks of the campaign, making multiple stops there, including his final campaign appearance that stretched into the early morning of Election Day.
An average of pre-election polls showed Clinton with a 3.4-point lead in Michigan and a 6.5-point lead in Wisconsin. The two states are worth a combined 26 electoral votes - still not enough for Clinton to reach the 270 threshold. She also lost Pennsylvania, which hadn't swung Republican in a presidential race since 1988.
Clinton's campaign has pinned the loss on FBI Director James Comey, who announced 11 days before the election that the bureau was reactivating its investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server. The announcement likely helped depress voter turnout, a campaign director wrote in an email last week.
Comey's subsequent letter clearing Clinton of any wrongdoing, issued two days before the election, may have energized Trump's supporters in turn, the director said.

If you are on the #trumptrain you either believe in conspiracy theories, or you voted a guy in who does. and now he is in charge of our military.
You voted for a hate monger, And EVERYTHING you think you know about Hillary Clinton is from guys that look up to Alex Jones.
And if you think (or thought for more than 5 minutes) the Clintons are murderer's, (or Bill is a rapist) you are simply a fool. I'm talking to you, Russia.

I read a libtard virtue signalling and bitching about our society, and how he's so upset about the wealth disparity, and how he only wants the simple life.
:lol2
Let's describe the "simple life" "poor" people in America live.
You know i just need a roof over my head, by roof i mean electricity, running water, air conditioning, refrigeration, a stove and oven, microwave, a bed with sheets, wifi for my phone so i can rant about the impoverished life of a poor person in America, and a washer and dryer, you know the bare necessities. Maybe a roku or apple tv, but those are needs.
How horrible America is.
Lol at celebrities with criminal records saying they're moving to Canada, uh Canada has stricter immigration policies then we do. Good luck.
If Trump does this I will have already lost all respect for him --
Its like he hasn't learned anything. He is trying to mend fences to govern with a coalition instead of as a maverick – but he’s falling in the same trap all republicans have – ignoring why he was elected in the first place. Same thing with his proposed stimulus. Sigh.

NEW YORK, Nov 17 (Reuters) - President-elect Donald Trump will meet on Sunday with Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential candidate, and may discuss bringing him on to his team as secretary of state, a source familiar with the meeting said on Thursday.
It would be an extraordinary turn of events, given that Romney was a fierce critic of Trump and had urged Republicans to vote for anyone but him while the party was picking its presidential nominee. The source told Reuters that a broad discussion was expected during the meeting and that discussion about the secretary of state position was possible.
On one hand i share your sentiment. However I also think he may truly trying to find in his own way, the right people for the job.I say this trying to be as unbiased as i can. I have not forgotten that Romney was spot on about several foreign policy issues. Example: people laughed at him in 2012 and smug Obama scoffed at him and tried to school Romney on such issues as Russia/Crimea; in the end, Romney was absolutely correct.Quote:

It's brilliant misdirection and showmanship by both Ford and Trump. Trump was talking about Ford Fusion and other small car production being moved from Michigan to Mexico. And being a lying sack of shit, Trump spent all of October telling everyone that he had gotten the move canceled, and even bragged about Ford building a brand new factory in the US. Ford confirmed a few weeks ago that that move is still 100% happening and no new factories are being built.
Ford is now using Trump to make headlines about keeping Lincoln SUV production in Kentucky, and Trump is taking full credit and pretending like this is what he was talking about the whole time. The actual reason that Ford can't close that Kentucky factory is because of their UAW union contract.

DRAMAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Y'all acting like a politician took credit for something that they didn't actually do, like it's some new breaking news or something. Can you name one who hasn't?
Im sure you can count on many more slithery tactics for the next 4 or more years from your new God Emperor; if you're tilting at this story, at that rate you'll be having panic attacks before his first year is done.
I've seen a couple of these but they get me everytime:

so apparently the dollar is great and the markets are responding favorably to whatever constitutes trump's stimulus gestures.
thats... pretty cool.
obviously the rubber will hit the road when he starts to sign things, but just the fact that market confidence is up is encouraging and unexpected.
Unexpected yes... encouraging ehhhhhhhhh.Quote:

Yeahhhh I mean, Im a long way from faith here, and this feels like the quiet before a fearful and godless storm, but I never expected _any_ sort of positive response from the markets, and a lot of people expected us to go from 0 to Great Depression by now, so I'm not completely discouraged.
