Obama to order full investigation on Russia hacking

If you actually follow the link to the original source you find:

The frequency with which these people get duped by stories that are obviously, comically false is amazing.

HaHa I knew it

I'm not real sure what you think his experts mean, unless you just lose all critical thinking skills at the least bit of hope that there wasn't massive fraud in Detroit for HRC.

This is what he said :

" In Detroit, 158 of the 392 precincts with ballot discrepancies had just one extra ballot accounted for either in the poll book or in the ballot box, according to the Wayne County’s canvassing report."​

Here's a little thought provoker.

What about the other 234 precincts out of 392?

There, that wasn't so hard now was it.

Speaking of critical thinking skills here's from the rest of the story:

The other ballot discrepancies in Detroit and Wayne County precincts ranged between two and five ballots, according to the report.

Massive voter fraud, lol.

So now you've endorsed a ridiculous conspiracy theory multiple times while accusing other people of being stupid or lacking critical thinking skills. Are you prepared at this point to admit you were totally wrong and got duped by right wing news yet again?

If we're being hacked by foreigners, we need to find out. Then sanction the fuckers.

I'll take Never for $1000 for Alex.

Will never admit being duped.

Who is Shady28?

OBUMMER should investigate the NSA for who leaked the shit. NO HACKING took place.

Duped about what?

Let me ask you something Mr Dumbass.

Do you know who Craig Murray is?

Do you know why I'm asking that question?

The rest of your post was just a deflection.

You know you can just admit you were misled by conservative news sites again.

Revel in your own ignorance then, makes me no difference.

“We don’t have any suspicion of fraud. We generally approach this as human error," Thomas said. "We’re going to take a look at them to make sure there’s not a need for further explanations. And we'll be talking with Detroit staff as well going forward."

Chris Thomas, director of elections for the state of Michigan...

Old people, fucked up old equipment. Michigan needs to approach the 21st century with our antiquated voting system...

I agree he's being stupid about it however he unintentionally did point out a problem. 60%(?) of their counting machines are 30+ years old and they are suffering from jams and mis-scans that are likely causing the problem. Those impacted machines cannot be recounted because of the discrepancy. Sounds like money needs to be spent to either get them all working properly or newer equipment needs to be purchased.

If Trump says leave the Ruskies alone, we leave them alone. Putin is a nice guy who loves America.

No?

So what's the significance of putting an entity involved in the meddling of the election?

It seems DNC wants to call foul that the hacking influenced the decision of the voters. Would evidence of anyone else like a US insider make their foul play claim less relevant?

Wouldn't DNC make a better argument by saying the result of the hacking by anyone meant meddling in the election so it was unfair and Trump couldn't argue that?

It seems both sides arguing whether Russia did it or not is a distraction to the significance of how hacking influenced the decision of voters, if it did indeed.

And you're carefully ignoring any wrongdoing on the part of the Democrats.

Once again I have to note how this has really exposed how totally crazed by partisanship people have become. Upon finding out it's very likely that a hostile foreign power tried to manipulate our elections their response is...to try and go after their domestic political opponents.

This is the sign of a deep sickness in our society. Scary stuff.

How the hell can we claim any moral high ground here? We've done the same or worse, including assasssinations on foreign soil.

Maybe the DNC and Podesta can upgrade to 2 factor authentication, learn to do the nasty stuff verbally instead of create a trail, and we can all move on.

Or hell, let's start a fucking war with a nuclear superpower, torch the planet.

Or you can wear that safety pin forever, your choice.

Who is talking about moral high ground? Totally irrelevant. What, if Russia came and dropped a bomb on NYC would you be saying 'we can't complain because the US bombs people'? Silliness.

Irrelevant. Stop trying to distract from the issue of a hostile foreign power intervening in our elections.

Or hell, let's start a fucking war with a nuclear superpower, torch the planet.

Irrelevant ranting.

You are a perfect example of someone so consumed by domestic grievances that you can't even be swayed by a hostile foreign power likely trying to change who the president is to someone who will be friendlier to their interests. Like I said, this is a deep sickness.
