Absolutely! I feel highly entitled to not have a turd on one side of the ballot and a douche on the other!

Righties have the shittiest attitudes. We enjoy the benefits of the greatest civilization ever created & all they want is to tear it down. They all wanna be John Galt or the Lone Ranger.

It's not like we have to go back to square 1 to create a more perfect Union.

Above the law types who are connected to this in one way or another are smirking, and they are many. Their reputations may take a hit, but history dictates that the bulk of the contents of their wallets and portfolios will probably just slink off into some other well hidden stash and there's not a jail in existence that can withstand the legal trickery and political IOU's being cashed in at the moment.

Yes, removing a turd and a douche from the ballot during the 2016 election cycle will tear the whole thing down lol

I doubt you'd characterize many choices any differently. It's all in the attitude. The rest is rationalization for it.

Kasich and Sanders? Not so much.

And of course it is in the attitude. This election cycle has finally produced a turd and a douche. And I am offended that in a country of 320 million this is what we are presented with by our broken 2 party system.

This. I'll be surprised if anything of substance will come of this.

This issue finally found its way into our local newspaper.

The list is long and distinguished, and I'm going to be following this one along just to see how the mechanisms of the very rich and powerful go about squashing and booting this little awkward smelling turd of theirs into the twilight zone.

But I really do hope some of them didn't have a backdoor/trapdoor to slither out of and get caught in a dragnet of some kind and then prosecuted ala show trial style.

Yeah, like the current direction of the UniParty is not tearing it down.

I just saw a news clipwhere the founder of the law firm likened his operation to a knife factory- they just make knives, they're not responsible for what people do with them. Firearms makers say the same thing.

The twist, of course, is that anybody can use a knife or a gun while only the financial elite get to use the schemes he aids & abets.

He provides the means to wage top down class warfare all around the globe.

Hopefully your girl is taken down by this. Same circles. Same type of schemes (Clinton Foundation).

Healthcare can be delivered at places like Auschwitz, and that might be called, bad healthcare.

Here, take a shower in this poisonous gas shower.

It'll clean you right up.

Even when it includes illegals? Fuck no, it is bad then. They can go back to their own shitty governments and figure out how to do it. I refuse to let them drag this country down like their own shitholes.

How about you start a thread on that subject. I would be interested to see your sourcing of healthcare for illegals put forth by the Clinton campaign, but it isn't really on topic for this thread.

A few quick thoughts

- Wow!!

- That's probably the end of that law firm. Damn, I would hate to be them. They'll likely be dealing with all kinds of panicked clients and other lawyers etc. They made a mistake somewhere. Some of their clients seem like very powerful, and very nasty types. I'd be fearful of retribution if I were them.

- The IT Director guy is a walking dead man.

- IT Directors at other large international law firms are getting urgent calls today and will be very busy in coming days and weeks.

- Politicians required to report investment holdings could be very nervous right now, particularly if the forms are signed under penalty of perjury etc.

- Some people might have a lot 'splaining to do, cuz bribes and kickbacks.

- Bribes and kickbacks are generally taxable income, not reporting them can be a big problem.

- Any foreign banks subject to cooperation/disclosure agreements may also have some explaining to do. Who was that recently got popped? Credit Suisse? Could be more on the way.

- If anyone mentioned in a US citizen or resident they damn well better have reported those accounts (FATCA). Penalties are steep.

- If anybody (the DoJ for us) requires intent to prosecute for criminal tax fraud, having legal memos from lawyers outlining the plans etc is a windfall proving criminal intent.

- INAL, so am wondering about the 4th amendment and tainted evidence. I'm guessing these docs were hacked or otherwise stolen and wonder if that affects admissibility etc.

This should be fun to watch.
