    Hillary is the democrat's "best candidate" for other reasons than just "Trump is worse". Clinton cache, woman, connections, etc. You know that, so don't ignore that she is the best candidate by the metric of most electable and even with the baggage she is still the best chance, hence the "best candidate". The parties don't care if their candidate is good, honest, gives blood and saved a kitten from the SPCA. Win, baby, win or GTFO. Hillary is the best the dems have to offer. Pretty sad.

    Republicans? Couldn't field anyone that could stand above the crowd because.... They ALL sucked to high heaven! Why are you two ( Hi Denny) making extraneous excuses for them? Trump got traction because there wasn't a candidate that was worth a damn. They played their cards wrong and got beat by a guy that wasn't a regular at the table. How pathetic.

    Sure seems like you guys want to defend the field of shabby republican candidates for some reason. Is it just to be a contrarian to the resident newb and proud American Atheist?

    I agree with you about celebrating either candidate, since they are horrible. Tired of repeating myself and the obvious. Just asking though, why is it so hard to agree with what I'm saying? It's not unreasonable and seems to be just a fact. Why mention other factors in your reply to mine when they are pretty obvious and serve to deflect attention from my mundane observation? It seems like your reply is meant to refute what I'm saying and suggest that the real factors are the various secondary and tertiary points you brought up. Is it so hard to say, "Yeah, the republican candidates this season were weak. In addition here are some factors that contributed to their downfall and the rise of Trumpamania."

    Just like islam, there needs to be a reformation in the republican party, ignore that fundamental issue and what naturally flows from that platform will be more out of touch candidates bickering amongst themselves playing the game of pandering and political negatively so fervently they can't do anything else.

    Lawyers who specialize in representing government and military officials who’ve had security clearances revoked said Comey’s recommendation offered them a new tactic in seeking to rehabilitate their clients, especially if Clinton is elected president in November.

    “I intend to use the Hillary defense,” said Sean M. Bigley, a lawyer whose firm handles dozens of cases a year involving national security clearances. “I really question how any agency can say someone is a security risk if the president of the United States did something similar.”

    He added, “We’ve had people lose 20-year careers for doing less than what she did.”

    Mark F. Riley, a former military intelligence officer who became a lawyer defending those accused of national security violations, said he, too, would invoke the Clinton recommendation.

    On the practical side of things, this regulations sounds like it needs to be modified. I have taken hundred of pictures of the stuff in my boat so as to show for future reference how something looks, is adjusted or located. In short to document for future reference. I did the same thing way back when aboard a destroyer. It seems to me that security at a level that prevents a man from doing his job is wrong. Taking the photo off the ship might be right, but not taking the photo. That said, I don't know what the hell he was doing, but it did strike me as probably too tight.

    People see through the blinders. Jesus fucking Christ the government is so corrupt. That's why a guy like Trump is doing as well as he is right now. He's an outsider. Yeah, he may be brash and kind of unhinged.

    Yeah, kind of.

    There are people in asylums who think they are Jesus. That doesn't mean you should worship them.

    Not yet verified by other than Fox News, but it seems Petty Officer Saucier will get pardoned.

    (As a Commander in the Navy I think this bullshit should've been stopped at a Captain's Mast, where the CO of the ship decides that the sailor did something dumb, reduces him in rank a step or two, takes some pay, and does other little things that make life not fun for a few months. Then the sailor can try to get on with his career. Not saying that I'd want to spend a year in prison, but to get reinstated fully seems like an odd resolution to this. Hopefully this will reinstate an honorable discharge --heck, we can still bring him back in the Reserves--but he's a trained Nuclear Power machinist who's been a garbageman for a couple of years. He was an instructor at Power School. He got all of his benefits stripped and can't even apply his training to civilian apprenticeship programs b/c of the Dishonorable Discharge.)

    Talk about some government-worker bullshit...

    These sort of threads crack me up. If it's anything negative on Hilary marzy and denny jump all over it, but if there is anything negative about trump, then it's fake news. The definition of selective bias.

    Hey, Benghazi has been cleared by everybody that's anybody including the President, the State Department, the commanding general of the Africa Command, the commanding general of Nato and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Do you know someone higher than these gentlemen who declared her guilty of ANYTHING?

    Oh yes, I forgot to include the acting Director of the CIA.

    a) Not EUCOM.
    b) Not by me. And I know a bit about it.
    c) Even if a) and b) weren't true, they knew it wasn't a goddamn Terry Jones YouTube video.

    So no, Benghazi hasn't "been cleared" by everybody that's anybody. Sure, maybe no one's going to jail. But don't for a second think that the SOF community doesn't know that their guys were left to die due to political reasons.

    Sounds like you're advocating for an Article 15.

    Exactly....that's what we call it in the Navy (no offense, I wasn't sure if you were or not). NJP "Non-Judicial Punishment" is what we term it, but my retired AF dad still calls them Article 15s
