81. Where are you on Assange?
Thu Dec 3, 2015, 11:42 PM
Dec 2015

I can search, but I think I can guess. That is a man with rape charges pending, a fugitive from justice, whom far too many insist should be immune from justice.

And how is it that it is women who are always responsible for sexual assault and not the men? You are blaming Clinton for an allegation against her husband. It's astounding that for some all the ill in society is the fault of women. If they report an assault, they are liars. If their husband has a long-discredited allegation against him, it's the woman's fault.

Thanks again for showing how the opposition to Clinton by "progressives" has absolutely nothing to do with issues.

None of this has any impact on the election. All you have succeeded in doing is exposing yourself for the entire WWW to see. This election will pass. Long after it's in the rear view mirror, you will still be the person who resorted to this sort of tactic.
