Sunday Toons of the Moment

The five stages of political grief: denial, bargaining, stalling, anger, and hypocrisy

Union Leader publisher: Christie told me he would not endorse Trump

“So I sent a message off to Gov. Christie and he called me right back and I told him what I’d heard, and he said ‘No, no, I would never do that,'” McQuaid recalled. “[Christie] told me to tell the other guy to ‘take his head out of his ass’ for saying he would support Trump.”

    “Hillary Clinton waves. And smiles. And points. Every time she walks onto a stage.

    Every time.

    Who is it that Hillary spies in the audience? Because she does it every time I have seen her walking onto a stage, which is something she does quite a lot in her line of work.

    We’re not talking most times she’s on stage. In pretty much every video I’ve seen of Hillary walking onstage, she spots this person, strains to see over the lighting, and waves heartily to this long, lost friend, seemingly astonished that he or she would be present. Who is it?

    [Well, it turns out that] it is an affectation. A stage device. A tool to make it appear that Hillary has lots of good friends who like to surprise her by showing up at her events.”

    …………………………………………..

    >>> i learned something at poker tonight, besides losing….was informed that Hillary’s perpetual open-mouthed surprise and glee at spotting “dear dear friends” in all of her audiences is a total fucking sham….she smiles and waves AT NOBODY!….NO ONE!….it’s a complete charade, a stupid little trick she learned (the article excerpt above just googled right up on my first try)….and you thought her phony hog-maws-and-hominy accent on the South Carolina campaign trail was enough to make you vomit??….guess what, she’ll be barefoot and missing teeth by the time she rolls into Mississippi on a hay wagon….god spare us….does she talk like that to megadonors at CitiGroup?…

    HRC: the more you know her, the more you dislike her…

    And with Bernie it’s exactly the opposite…

    I shouldn’t have said i dislike Hillary….i actually detest her, she’s garbage….her, and her smirking clown husband, and their motherfucking 30-year corporate neocon takeover and disembowelment of MY DEMOCRATIC PARTY, the Party of FDR….should she bully the nomination i hope she loses the general, seriously, seriously, seriously….if THAT is what it takes to finally destroy the DLC/DNC in my lifetime, so be it….Cancer is a battle to the death, no flinching or mincing words….i am so fucking ready…for Hillary? NOT!!!!!

    What does it all mean when the Vice-Chair of the DNC quits to support Sanders?

    Especially when she says it is because McHillary is a warmonger? (Doomers and Doomer Watchers).
