They came out thinking Hussein felt their pain or understood. Hard to say, based on memories alone.<br /><br />But Hussein prefers golf games rather than talking at military ceremonies or visiting families of casualties in his war, different from Bush II's admin.<br /><br />Because of Hussein's childhood indoctrination under racist Leftists and Nation of Islam, he would have easily called the family if they were black. And some of the BLM casualties were black police officers.Ymar Sakarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173950.post-13416417912923118312016-11-12T00:37:15.434-05:002016-11-12T00:37:15.434-05:00The Democratic Party has been exiled to the Wilder...<i>The Democratic Party has been exiled to the Wilderness ...</i><br /><br />Any chance it'll last 40 years? ;-)<br /><br /><i>I want to see Senators and Congresscritters dedicated to the proposition that good legislation absolutely requires the balancing of all the legitimate interests</i><br /><br />I want to see them first and foremost dedicated to the proposition that the Constitution means what it says, in the most Originalist way possible, and act accordingly.Tomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173950.post-41931831098309149772016-11-11T18:53:21.775-05:002016-11-11T18:53:21.775-05:00I want to see these worthies operating under the l...<i>I want to see these worthies operating under the larger principle that good legislation most often means "don't legislate."There's a reason that the legislature in the entity with the 12th largest economy in the world--Texas--only meets every other year.</i><br /><br />I follow the Texas leg on some issues.

I had hoped that DJT would win the election, but expected to see more Democrats win the other races.<br /><br />Good. The Democratic Party has been exiled to the Wilderness, so their first move is to consider Keith Ellison to head the DNC. If they pick him, it will be at least 4-year dry spell, instead of 2 years.<br /><br />I hope they put this period to good use. They need to clean house, and come up with fresh policies. I want to see a clean and vigorous Democratic Party. In steep contrast to the Nancy Pelosi legislative train wreck, I want to see Senators and Congresscritters dedicated to the proposition that good legislation absolutely requires the balancing of all the legitimate interests.

My point holds, I think: that's a big figure for a Democrat to have lost. I don't know that Sanders would have come in so badly in that demographic. There were photographs of him marching with Dr. King, and being arrested during the Civil Rights era. He was somebody they would have had every reason to see as legit. Clinton was an establishment tool who lied to their faces, demonstrably, time and again.Grimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07543082562999855432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173950.post-18165082299895609472016-11-11T11:55:40.007-05:002016-11-11T11:55:40.007-05:00He won close to 20% of black men.

Trump...I never thought <i>you</i> would vote for Sanders.<br /><br />Trump won apparently ~51% of white women, though, which is surprising all things considered. He won close to 20% of black men. You'd have only had to move a few percent over to the other side for this election to have gone the other way. Clinton couldn't do it, being the very living symbol of the establishment. But Sanders might have done.
