    exactly

    both sides say some outrageous things at times... used to not be Presidents though

    most of the right denounce the kkk
    most of the left denounce Antifa

    neither party can be lumped in with those groups

    I dont recall them burning their antifa sign in some backyard of a right winger. I also don't recall them lynching people. So your comparison is totally wack. It has as goal by the right wing to claim the left is just as violent so it's all square and fair, while it aint the case.

    The KKK is far more violent than Antifa. I dunno who you are kidding here, but the KKK has killed plenty of people, and Antifa hasn't. We all know that. All this,.. Antifa is just like KKK seems only to have as a goal to paint the left just as bad as the right.... by the right. While it just aint the case.

    Fake news.

    The gop is still the same party it has always been. Conservative principals, that is belief in our Founding Docs, individualism, and liberty. The DNC is essentially the same, it’s dollowes have tried to rebrand themselves with different names...and frankly have become far far more leftist then when Jackson founded the party

    I agree.

    The political extremism is a disease and needs to be condemned.

    For anybody unwilling to condemn his comments... have some decency. It's disgusting.

    So far, you have made 17 posts in this thread and have not once condemned his comments.

    You are part of the problem.

    I have no need to condemn what an idiot says since I know he is an idiot...You need reinforcement because you have a political agenda.I do not. The Koch's were broke in the 1930's after no one wanted to use Koch's fracking techniques so he sold the idea to Stalin and made his fortune in the USSR. Should I condemn the Koch's for this also? I think not.

    Really an indirect route compared to being on the front lines making actual decisions that affect the USA directly..

    Well the presidential election maps don’t seem to show that...in fact it shows the opposite...rich LA folks, and Manhattan millionaires vote blue...everyone else red.

    Their funding is a pretty direct route imo

    On one hand Maher's a shock jock so it's not really surprising he'd say something stupid but on the other hand you'd be hard pressed to find a right wing shock jock salivating over the idea of RBG's death on Television.

    He may give money and try to influence yet it is not the same as being a person that actually makes the law. As far as this tit for tat bullshit idea you need relevance and equality in references to prove nothing it is all bullshit.

    The person with the money makes the rules hence the phrase follow the money. One Supreme Court judge vs a guy who influences with money multiple judges

    Yes the GOP generally supports lower taxes for all Americans. Dems believe in higher taxes for all Americans and loop holes for their donors in Hollywood and Wall Street.

    Yet Ruth is the final arbitrator that is the diff. As far as money I am so glad to see someone that supports the sale of our govt. to the highest bidder.

    Those "loopholes" are available to all that need them so your direct attack is somewhat lacking in substance.

    Just easier for the Uber rich dem donors.

    Thanks for the reminder...a vote for a dem is vote to raise your taxes, and create new ones.

    So instead, you elect to avoid the condemnation, criticize the "otherside" and overall just argue for the sake of arguing.

    You could have come into the thread and said "that was a stupid thing for Maher to say"... in one post.

    But instead, you elected not to condemn him and spend 17 posts arguing.

    *sigh* whatever.

    How you figure I support it? Because I acknowledge unfortunate truths?

    I also acknowledge that people get cancer sometimes too, does that mean I support cancer lol?

    I did and can't find anyone wishing her to die. What I did find is this back in January.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/index...er-ginsburg-cancels-2-upcoming-events.549311/

    Which was the 15th post in the thread where no one had said any such thing but it became and still is a myth for you leftist.
