Wall Street Journal goes after Hillary. Like I said before I can understand all the Trump hate. He is a slimeball obviously. But I am so surprised so many of you actually like Hillary. It just floors me. Why the hell would you support her? You can despise Trump and still not vote for Hillary, you know?? There are write in candidates available like Jesse Ventura. Hell you could even write in Michelle Obama. She seems like a helluva smart, intelligent person without the baggage of a Hillary fricking Clinton, who in another point of time, could be in jail right now. http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-press-buri...sins-1476401308

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 05:47 AM) They already did background and checked with people they told their stories to at the time they happened. It's multiple independent women all alleging the same behavior. Plus, you know, it's the exact behavior Trump himself bragged about. You are probably right, Strange.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 01:18 AM) While we are talking crazy here.....All this Putin stuff floating around is hogwash right? I just read an article that some Russian higher-up says if Clinton is elected there will be nuclear war sooner rather than later. Interesting.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 05:33 AM) Thank god the First Amendment exists. Yes but there was no time to check out these women who were/are coming forward. There's always the chance Trump could win lawsuits if the pieces fall the right way. I guess the Cosby case has proven the media organizations will be OK, however. I don't think Cosby has gone after any outlets for libel. I was saying months ago Donald should have dropped out. Just said the system was rigged and he'd had it. With his past as a ruthless rich guy, this stuff was bound to come out. s***, just the fact he was willing to go on Stern dozens of times in his life and play along with Howard with sex banter, showed in itself this stuff would all come back to devour his reputation. If Donald stays in the race, he has to go on the Bill Clinton attack. Just keep alleging Bill is a womanizer and how come no equal scruitiny of Bill.

Hmmm like I said in the other thread, better prepare for lawsuits, media outlets. ... this he-said she said stuff is tricky. Little surprised in this day and age the media companies will risk the lawsuit over he said/she said. http://money.cnn.com/2016/10/12/media/new-...lawsuit-threat/

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 05:09 AM) You have every right to be worried about the upcoming Hillary presidency, I know I am. You just can't talk about it publicly because Trump is such an awful person, that's all that matters. Exactly, but if you read my posts you'd see I predicted this. As we got to crunch time, near the election, that's when the media unleashes its fury vs. the Republican. The news organizations better be careful. Mr. Trump will be suing a lot of people in he said/she said cases. Also, Bill Clinton might need to worry a bit say six months AFTER the coronation/election. The media may go after Bill and his past transgressions once Hillary is safely in the Oval Office. The first two years of her coronation might be fair game for Bill as she doesn't have to win again until 2020. A few years to mess around looking at Bill's past before getting on the Hillary bandwagon again as the 2020 election nears. Again, this he-said/she said stuff is touchy. Little surprised the media attorneys are letting them run with this against a rich person like Trump. I know if a person says something there's "probably" no cause for a successful lawsuit, but then again, if these people making the allegations turn out to be wacky unreliable people, a judge might side with Trump in a lawsuit for recklessness.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 04:25 AM) Greg is totally cool with a Trump presidency. I'm not voting for him and that's a fact. So I can't be too cool with it. I do think we're doomed as a country either way. Eight years of Hillary is not good. And you know who I think takes over after her. I'm very worried about our economy.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) Name me all the blunders without mentioning emails or Benghazi. Name 5 blunders from Hillary in the past week and we will hold them up next to Trumps blunders You refuse to acknowledge that Trump does stupid s*** not daily, but HOURLY, and forces people to say "look at all this stupid s***!" But, greg ignoring reality and repeating himself(in the third person) is to be expected Trump is a slimeball. How else can I put it and impress upon you guys he is evil. You guys are confusing me being "amused" by Trump with wanting him elected. I could list a ton of adjectives blasting him now but I don't think this board wants such inflammation. I love Jesse, though. Now to answer your question on Hillary's blunders: In her life she blasted stay at home moms (elitist Hillary), she covered up her husband's indiscretions and attacked the women, a man who was Jewish said she used a slur vs. him; she screamed at her bodyguards for having the audacity to say good morning; the money she got from wall street for speeches, way too much money; and can you say WHITEWATER; I won't mention vince foster and the controversy. She's a bad lady, sir. QUOTE (Tony @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 10:42 PM) I HAVENT VOTED FOR A REPUBLICAN IN TWO ELECTIONS! YOU AREN'T LISTENING TO ME. Finally somebody acknowledges this. You guys never act like anything I say sinks in so YES I do repeat myself a lot. Finally somebody remembers my position on this. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 11:32 PM) stop listening to talk radio Meghan McCain is educated, smart and doesn't interrupt her guests. Actually Limbaugh doesn't interrupt his guests either, unlike the TV dolts Matthews, Maddow, Wolf Blitzer, etc. Why not listen to her? QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 01:03 AM) Nyt with a story of two women claiming Trump touched them inappropriately https://www.google.com/amp/mobile.nytimes.c...android-verizon And another claim in the palm beach post from a different woman http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/palm-bea...dJY9htsLl88GcP/ Just locker room talk. (Maybe a women's locker room with underage girls, which Trump likes to barge in on) How could Trump run for president when he knew he did all this stuff in his past? Is he a glutton for punishment? Yes he's a slimeball. I could say, but ... so is Bill Clinton. The man preyed on interns, folks! QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 01:31 AM) To Greg's point, I am mildly surprised at how little talk there has been about Bill being in the White House as the first man and as a former President. There's nothing. They don't want to embarrass him. He deserves mention ONLY as a former PRESIDENT according to the pundits. They won't embarrass him speculating on his role as First Man. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 02:51 AM) https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/...amp;sh=853560b0 Who the f*** looks at an 8 year old girl and mentions they'll be dating said human in 10 years. And by dating he means ducking. f*** this country for letting this piece of filth get so far. I am deeply offended and sickened by him. I mean f***. f***. He's a rat. He's scum. He's a ruthless one percenter, true. But Bill CLinton and Hillary are no saints. Hillary arguably should be in jail right now. Bill ... cmon. He's a rat too.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 09:16 PM) It astounds me the fall from around the time of the RNC, when he was gaining some serious traction and had a lot of momentum, to now. Blunder after blunder after blunder. And he still seems totally oblivious to it. Hillary's blunders get ignored by the press; Trump's are headlines. For some reason, Hillary, who isn't even cooperative with the press, is their runaway choice and she benefits from the free publicity. Yes Trump gives the press a lot of material, but they aren't even trying to nail Bill/Hillary. Meghan McCain had a guest yesterday who wrote a book on evil Hillary or whatever he called it and said Bill has had wild parties in the Arkansas museum which includes an apartment he uses. Hillary always stays at the hotel the rare occasions she's been in Arkansas. The writer said Bill is ambivalent about Hillary winning cause he knows if she wins his love life with others has to end. He'll have to be accounted for in D.C. I mean this guy is SAYING it at risk of lawsuits but nobody's checking it out?? Hmmm.

Folks, Kasisch shoulda been the Republican nominee. Case closed. He was the guy that coulda done it.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 01:54 AM) https://www.wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/4433 Clinton's campaign manager says she, "has begun to hate everyday Americans" to which Clinton's Director of Communication responded, "Truth." Of course she hates the middle class. I've been saying it on here forever. She's a one percenter folks, just like Donald. They both are elitist. They both are rich. Their lives for the most part are over (not being mean here, their ages and quality of life that's coming). So you'd think they'd want to help the little guy and gal their last 10 years or so of their working lives (til 78, 80). But nooooo. Of course she hates Americans. So does Trump for that matter. FYI I don't think Obama hates Americans nor did Carter or Reagan. Bushes were kinda elitist themselves. And as an addendum by "hate Americans" I mean yes they'd do ANYTHING to stomp them if it meant them staying a one percenter. Sure they hate us. QUOTE (raBBit @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 02:28 AM) Why do you insist on condescending me? I post news and you joke "October Surprise!!!" Then you ask if I read the email? Really? What do you take exception to specifically? Can you respond to the actual material at hand? Or when it paints HRC negatively or do you just condescend, wave your hand and parrot conspiracy theory? Bingo! But he doesn't see it.

No way this version of the Cubs was going to choke it away. It's too good a team. Our Sox as of now are officially irrelevant until we get good again. I wonder how many Sox fans are gonna flip to the Cubs now. It won't happen with us loyal lifers but some people in this day and age might jump on the winner's bandwagon. GO SOX GO!

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 12:52 AM) I guarantee no one on this board hates you greg. You might get rebuked for silly posts but that is far from hate mate. I think there are several who think I am scum.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 07:05 PM) Dont talk about being arm and arm with fellow americans. You have demonstrated that there are plenty that you would rather not be around, either because of how they protest or how they dress I don't know why you assume I am evil and Satan reincarnated so to speak. a.) how they protest: Yes I get pissed when protestors hit the highways. It upsets me and I've said they should all be arrested. I said I"m OK with legal protesting. I am also against BLM members going up to innocents in libraries yelling at them. Does that make me the piece of scum you often suggest? Sorry I'm not always PC. Oh and b.) how they dress. Well yes I was turned off, somewhat sickened by the site of the 65 year old man wearing a short skirt and high heels walking into the Subway and I chose not to eat there. Yes that is unChristian of me and unneighborly. I guess I can only tell u I need to work on that part of myself. There are people that would scream insults at him or mock him, but that doesn't excuse my distaste for seeing him walking in the high heels. If that makes me evil I guess you are right. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 07:25 PM) Here's the thing. HRC is flawed...some of the recent revelations coming out about the DNC and Clinton campaigns vs. Bernie Sanders and his (young) supporters makes me cringe. She's much cozier with the banks and free trade tenets than she lets on in public, for example. The difference in the two campaigns is one side is mostly divided on ideological grounds (Hillary is a one percenter), that's mostly an economic argument about what we truly believe about the efficacy of income redistribution in America. On the other side, you have roughly 1/4 to 1/3rd of the likely Republican voters filled with hate and vitriol for foreigners, for black people (especially Obama), for Hispanics, for the LGBT community, misogynistic attitudes towards women, etc. Greg, you may feel ethically/morally that HRC is corrupt and even should be arrested, but, as an American...can you honestly not see the difference? Is it simply that being branded a racist for being Republican (and not a Trump supporter) is what upsets you the most, being lumped in with the deplorables now instead of being able to hide behind a veneer of Ayn Rand rugged individualism and self-reliance? Or perhaps you perceive the Democrats as hating religion/God, and you believe that's worse than the different "ism" versions of hate coming out of the Trump campaign? That it's all somehow even because just as many Dems are atheist and "hate" God in your perception? Well, I guess I am upset because I am a Republican but I'm not voting for Trump, even though nobody believes me. Trump is the kind of person who has ruined our economy. A one percenter who has stepped on the little guy, both ones working for him and in other industries. He's solely out for No. 1. But I equally despise Hillary (actually hate Hillary more) and I get upset because everyone on here thinks I love Trump. I've talked to a lot of people who despise both choices. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 11:11 PM) InfoWars is saying that they'll pay people $5k if they disrupt Clinton's rallies with "BILL CLINTON IS A RAPIST," so of course that's happening now. How do you claim the $5K? Weird. That InfoWars host hates Hillary for sure. p.s. People that hate me on this board fail to realize we all have one thing in common: We love the Sox. Yet I'm still despised.

QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 07:12 PM) It's too much to summarize. Outright hostility. I would feel physically unsafe if I didn't know they were mostly cowards and keyboard warriors but still. On Twitter? f*** Twitter. Like you said, keyboard warriors. Racists are the scum of the earth. How could any man stay married or marry a racist woman? And how could a racist woman marry or stay married to a racist man? You answer a question for me pls. Are u confident Hillary will help anybody but the 1 percenters? She's just as bad as Trump. And her supporters aren't as vocal cause they merely love her cause of her name. They know there's nothing to brag about with her. There's no reason to be optimistic about America's future with her. WIth Trump there may be no future. We'll probably be nuked w/in 2 years. I just wish Hillary supporters would be honest and tell me, yes, she is awful as well.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 06:36 PM) A lot of them are Blackhawks fans, so they have experience with playoff games lasting past midnight. Are they wrecks during the day? The game ended at 1:45 and they had to get up at 5:45.

QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 06:48 PM) You don't know what it's like being a black person reading comments from Trump supporters, do you? Like you have no idea. It's actually terrifying. What are Trump supporters saying? I know he wants stop and frisk which is ridiculous. Trump is awful. My point is Hillary is too and we are all in this together. She isn't going to help blacks one iota. She isn't going to help anybody but the 1 percenters. I have nothing against Democrats. I told u all I vote Democrat when the Repub. candidate blows and the Democratic candidate is even OK (Obama). Oh I forgot, nobody believes me. I have nothing against Demos, but reading this thread makes me think Demos HATE Repubs. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 07:16 PM) f*** people, wake up. I would agree. But negative campaigning is the rage and has been a long time. And the media reporters of the debates are on the "gotcha, zinger" lines except when a Republican makes them. Trump's "you'd be in jail" is already out of the news rather than propelling him, lol.

I can't believe some of the comments on here from Democrats on this thread. Do you staunch Democrats ever look in the mirror and realize Republicans are fellow Americans? Some people act like Republicans are the scum of the earth. We are all in this together. My feeling is the enemies are not members of a certain party but the 1 percenters and the business leaders who dump on the little guy every day of every week (middle class) to give those one percenters cars, boats, mansions, vacation mansions. Trump and Hillary are both 1 percenters. The middle class gets hit with declining health benefits, more cost for health benefits, low paying jobs, RIDICULOUS costs for college. We need somebody who cares about the middle class. Hillary and Trump? You are fooling yourselves if you think either one of them care about the middle class.

I was thinking last night when I went to bed how tough that had to be on Cub fans. That game ended 1:45 a.m. I think. Let's say you live in suburbia and have to be at work at 8 downtown and take the train. You get up at 5:45 to do everything you need to do to catch a train right? That's a whopping 4 hours sleep and they lost. Lotta people in bad moods today?

If that was a regular fence would he have robbed the homer? I want you to win $25,000 but I told u the Cubs would sweep.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 05:12 AM) I initially bet 2k on the giants, then live bet another 2K, when they were down 3-0. Holy s***. Good job.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 06:06 AM) guys I'm seriously f***ing rich if they pull this off Wow. Did u bet a couple grand on this game only?

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 04:55 AM) Almost the best catch in Cubs history Excellent point. Wow. Conor sometimes catches hold of a baseball. The guy the Giants are pitching tomorrow doesn't stand a chance, however.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 06:23 AM) Greg, appointing a special prosecutor because he won is basically creating a banana republic. You want a dictatorship. It's OK. I said Trump amuses me. I never said I'd vote for him. I won't vote for him as a matter of fact. I swear to God (and I am Catholic) I will vote for a write-in (likely Ventura but don't hold me to him yet). From my posts about God you know of all people I would not make this statement if I intended on lying. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 10:27 AM) It's sad that you think a zinger with zero substance won this debate. It's sad that there are many out there like you that grab on to this clueless demagogue wannabe and prop him up under the pretense that you are voting for someone else(you're not). It's even more sad when you refer to yourself in the third person because you are using an online alias Zingers win all debates. Remember the Jack Kennedy line? This was the zinger that won the debate. Why do you hate me so much? In real life I'd buy you a beer or coffee or dinner. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 11:12 AM) It's pretty gross when Trump and his supporters act like every man brags about sexual assault when they're with other dudes. There's a difference between being lewd and what Trump said. I agree. We were talking about this today at lunch. It's not like we are all neanderthal morons just cause we are male. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 09:23 PM) He should ask Bill Clinton after Monica got off her knees, sure he knows. Great post. But nobody wants to discuss Bill's exploits and how Hillary allegedly went after those women. Hey we're close to the election. It's all Democratic support from media all the time.

QUOTE (Tony @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 04:13 AM) It's ok, you can just admit it. I guess you must be one of those people who think Hillary is a saint and if a person like me blasts Hillary incessantly I have to like Trump. I've already been honest. I do think he's hilarious and outrageous and it's a blast to see him say what he does. But why is it so hard to believe that just because Greg hates Hillary he has to vote for Trump and be a Trump supporter? I don't get that. I guess I could admit to hating Trump less than I hate Hillary. I guess I could even admit I don't hate Trump cause he amuses me so. I love the idea of a non-political person running. That's why I love Jesse Ventura. I'm sick of politicians but I can't vote for Trump. I even told my mom that tonight. She said, 'but if you vote for neither your vote doesn't count.' I said, 'Look, you can't vote for Trump. A president can't be saying the stuff he says. But you also can't vote for Hillary because she is horrible. So if you vote you have to vote for a write in.' Now if you accuse my mom of wanting Trump and voting for Trump, go ahead. I can tell I didn't convince her and she'd NEVER vote Democrat. But Greg? He goes for Jesse. Tony you are close to forcing me to start a new thread ... it would go like this Who do you think Hillary hater Greg is voting for? He's been accused of being a liar and Troll. So who will Greg vote for ... a.) Trump. b.) Hillary. c.) Jesse Ventura. d.) somebody else. e.) None of the above.
