Cool story bro? Not sure how that applies here other than to insinuate that Hillary will die in office.

We were discussing the health of past presidents and how it has impacted their performance in office. Pay attention.

By around this time next year, Canada may be one of the few major Western countries where alt-right white nationalists don't either have a significant voice in the government, or run the show entirely.

Which simply means we'll become their next target to go after.

We are well protected by a first past the post system and a system of 2 to 3 parties.

First past the post means the extremists don't get a vote and having 3 parties means the extremists can't just take control of one and have the false balance problem.

This angle is even worse, she is out on her feet as the van doors open Her feet were dragging as they pulled her into the van.


Edit: Why didn't they take her to a hospital?

That's the same video as before, only reversed for some reason. Notice how the van arrives from the right instead of the left.

Oops, didn't even notice that. Seems like it is zoomed in a bit more or something.

I don't think we have much room to brag. Our pm chair is occupied by someone with an IQ equivalent to a stick of butter...and the country is being run behind closed doors by Gerald Butts.

Trudeau is a massive improvement over what we had for the preceding decade. Harper was what would happen if you built a robot, but forgot to program in the Three Laws.

As much as I would love to discuss the non merits of the Drama Teacher, I'll return to the american politics.

The drama teacher comment is a bit strange considering he has much more political experience than Mr. Drumpf, who you seem to support.

So apparently it's pneumonia and dehydration

Hillary Clinton on Sunday abruptly left a ceremony in New York marking the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, and a video appeared to show her struggling to maintain her balance as a pair of Secret Service agents lifted her into a van. The incident, according to a statement from her physician, was related to pneumonia and dehydration.

I'd way rather have Butts than Cheney and I'd rather have Tim Kaine than Pence.
It's already out that if elected, Pence will be running the show while Trump play acts the part.
