    This 100% correct and Hillary Clinton made a big mistake playing the victim from a whole bunch of things. Its worked well for her , so far.
    Hell, I still expect her to jump in the race within in about 6 mths.

    Its more like Government Derangement Syndrome. Thats is exactly why we need small government to cover a few bases and thats it! The way it was intended.

    But there wasn't a hate crime. Probably that's not a good thing.

    No I don't. I like to wait for facts before jumping to a conclusion.

    That's a good plan. How do you know when you have all the relevant facts?

    I don't know when I have all the relevant facts. A preponderance of evidence is usually enough for me to form an opinion though.

    I know! It’s absurd to even think it’s possible! This kind of thing only happens in the movies dummies!

    Wife tells me she was raped.....I'll kill him.


    Wife tells me she was abducted by ET and flown to the dark side of the moon and raped by the Nazis that live there.....hmmmmmmm. Might have to possibly doubt her just a teeny bit.

    Omg....

    I just realized that since we all know women get raped that if a woman says the real Elvis and Michael Jackson raped her yesterday I'll just have to believe her.

    Totally the same. Very very similar scenarios actually. Good call.

    The whataboutism is very strong with certain members right about now. Very very weird

    It's less weird when one realizes that you don't know what 'whataboutism' is.
