Certainly. Consider it done.
I'm not and I'm not sure what gave you this impression as I explicitly stated that I was more of a relativist on matters involving political opinions.
But let's turn the tables here. I'm very curious what experiences that might have led to your belief that you're good at determining factual reality.
I don't know about honorable, because the term seems to have changed in recent memory, if not in meaning then in spirit. Regardless, I stand by my word and that is enough for me.
There is some small degree of amusement to this entire thing. The more fskimospy attempts to embarrass me, the more petulent it will make him when I simply do it without caring one bit. I won't even remember the act in short enough time - why would it bother me?
We wagered. Currently looks like I'm going to lose. I was prepared to lose, or I never would have wagered. Seems relatively simple to me - I think you're giving me too much credit (if you're not being sarcastic, etc..).
No...not being sarcastic. Just the thought of giving a dime (even though it's technically fskimospy's money) to Hillary Clinton bothers me. My oversized amygdala is screaming disgust. lolI don't know about honorable, because the term seems to have changed in recent memory, if not in meaning then in spirit.

I thought it was a funny thing to have you donate to, I don't see why that would embarrass you. Why make it into a bigger thing than it is?
All I hope you take away from this is that I would have been entirely happy to let this slide if you hadn't repeatedly and childishly insulted me out of a fit of pique when we made the wager to begin with. If you want to act like a jackass that's your business, but actions have consequences.

Here's a more fitting donation for fskimospy to make in my opinion:

No. How many times do I need to explain this to you? What is the basis for this belief?Yes we already know your opinion is that politics/policies is akin to chocolate vs vanilla. However as explained this trite belief ignores the reality of their consequences.
Imagine that! For someone who's work requires great accuracy, why is it that you continually misrepresent the "factual reality" of where I'm coming from?My work requires quantitative/empirical accuracy.

How is that fear mongering? That is literally the publicly stated policy preference of her opponent.
It's literally an emotional appeal using the fear a child has of her mother being deported. There are plenty of other ways at attacking Trump's immigration policies that don't involve bringing a child and her illegal immigrant mother onto a stage. Even if the emotional element is considered an important part of Clinton's positions, you can say "Deporting illegal immigrants will result in many children becoming wards of the state" or something along those lines rather than bringing an emotional child out.
Just a heads up that just because "fear mongering" has the word fear in it doesn't mean it's the same as other things that can be written to include the word fear.
Though I do tend to agree that it's fear mongering since it's predicated on policies which are never going to be enacted in reality. They could've gotten their point across more succinctly by saying "Donald Trump just tells plebs what they want to hear when in fact he has no plan to do any of it".
afaik, if two Mexican parents give birth to a child in the USA, the child retains Mexican citizenship. How does it tear families apart when immigrant parents have the option of just taking their child back with them to Mexico?

At least t3d stood up for himself. Bernie outright lied about tpp. The DNC platform is not to oppose it.Bernie doing us all proud, moves to give all his delegate votes to Clinton. If you ever doubted the chasm in class between Bernie Sanders and, say, Ted Cruz, well, there it is.
Take us to the promised land, Bernie!

Well, initially, when you get deported and ICE comes to take you away, there's no +1. There's only room in the bus for the illegals, son.
Yeah, same with hillary "goldstandard, uranium, gold mining, Africa dictator supporting, for profit school funding, grifter" Clinton. But she says she hates tpp, she doesn't hurt countries like haiti, wants to give away school, and takes no bribes. She is far worse than trump.Which really means that Trump can't be trusted. That's also evident given his life up 'til now.
It's highly amusing how his supporters go on about how we can't trust Hillary because... well, because Repubs made her an object of relentless scorn & derision at least 24 years ago. Their brains are on autopilot. The words & emotions come to them as thoughtlessly & effortlessly as the first verse of the National Anthem.

DNCs own info shows it might have some truth.Hillary never said Bernie's dad was was associated with JFK's death or insult his wife's looks. Huge difference here.
