Amusing though that clip is, thereās nonetheless a large slice of barrel-based fish-shooting exercise about it.

Youāre right, but itās always nice to see hypocracy laid bare. I was particularly taken by the guy who couldnāt see the irony in the comments on his t shirt

Forgive me for veering this thread off the hilarity, but Iāve had the debate on in the background this morning. As I said earlier, South Park nailed it.
Absent Hillaryās opening question, each of them began each exchange proclaiming that what the other said wasnāt true; blanket dismissal of everything. Neither of them dare hit specifics for fear of follow up questions. There was a long diatribe on Obamacare from Trump, but there wasnāt really much policy discussed in the main. Itās just a pair of bastards slugging it out trying to make the other one look worse.
Iāve said throughout that both are going to be disasters. Trumpās comments concerning groping women were appalling, but at the same time, I remember all of the scrapes that Hillary has gotten Bill out of, all the harm he and she have actually done. Both are going to represent an escalation from Obama in terms of overall danger to the world. Those countries that we criticise for not having democracies must be pissing their pants, because it looks bad enough from democratic nations.

According to the comments it was close enough. The concensus seemed to be āif i had read this first, i wouldnāt have had to waste an hour and a half watching itā.
Amusing link, but rather scary that these two are the best choice of the most powerful nation on earth. I always assumed that GBJ was the U.S hitting bottom. Fear i could be wrong.

Tariq Ali, a chap I have a lot of time for, on the Presidential Election.
So. While the West debates locker room talk and emails, Russia have started to recall all their Citizens related to Government or Military families from overseas.
They have almost a full brigade now in Syria, and have moved mobile missile launchers and armored units to be in range of Poland.
Turkey is getting embroiled in a row which could halt the attack on Mosul & finally force IS to flee and are now close to war with Iraq.
The world scores debating points you argue about a fast Brexit not having a vote in Westminster while World War 3 could erupt with one misplaced Drone strike.
Gotta love democracy

Sorry. Omitted to say they were Nuclear capable missiles
Scary shit.
Iāve heard tactical nukes mentioned a lot. The US will continue to contain Russia and China under Hillary. Not a great idea. We tried that lark with the Germans a century ago. The world still hasnāt recovered.
