I'm not saying that a mainstream politician supporting the war on drugs is anything shocking or scandalous. It's just funny when I know there are at least one or two hardcore partisan Dems here that think she has a genuine interest in legalization. Enjoy your pro-military intervention, anti-drug candidate.

Please. The Clinton campaign has vowed to reschedule cannabis & basically to allow legalization at the State level. Unlike the Repub platform, the Dem platform calls for a pathway to legalization. Five states will likely join the legalized segment in November-

Say what you want about Clinton but she sees the handwriting on the wall & obviously intends to heed it.

Morning Joe was saying that if ANY political campaign had their internal private emails exposed, we would find nothing different from what is in the Clinton emails.
And we all know that is true.
Knowing the nasty game Trump plays, can we imagine what we would find in Trump campaign emails?
Especially the emails from his "managers" that would no doubt be absolutely fuming that Trump cannot control himself.
And after Trump loses this election, maybe we will get to see those internal Trump emails.
We already know his tweets attack everyone from Paul Ryan to John McCain.
Just imagine what Trump says in back and forth emails between his internal people.
I'm guessing the media could not repeat Trump emails due to FCC regulations on airing profanity on TV.
Trump's that live in glass towers should not toss stones.....

Wikileaks put on twitter that "Julian Assange's internet link has been intentionally severed by a state party. If a "state party" really did anything, It's possible it's more along the lines of Ecuador getting tired of the freeloader. It's possible the powers that be @ Ecuador are not happy to now be harboring a man who has targeted, personally and viciously, the future President of the United States.

Maybe it's got to the point where Ecuador is not ready to push him out the door to arrest but they'd just rather he stop making trouble. Or in other words they changed the wifi password on him...lol

Until I see something on BBC covering it (from the Ecudorean Embassy not from wikileaks), nope, just more attention seeking.

The more I read the leaks, the more I like Clinton.

As for "Julian Assange's internet link", bro - just go to Starbucks.


For the conspiracy nutjobs...here is a little nibble for you
Mrs Clinton - "My view was you intervene as covertly as is possible for Americans to intervene," who is accused of being hawkish by liberal critics - added: "We used to be much better at this than we are now. Now, you know, everybody can't help themselves.

"They have to go out and tell their friendly reporters and somebody else: Look what we're doing and I want credit for it."

On Saturday, October 15, former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson informed the world that she brought Assange a vegan meal to the Ecuadorian embassy in London, where he is holed up avoiding a Swedish rape allegation he denies.

Pamela Anderson cut Assange's internet link after poisoning him with Vegan food.
As soon as he ran to the bathroom, out cam e the scissors.


BAM
I'm starting a right wing website.
I'm going to be the new Breitbart

It's pretty sad that some people will defend what is in these emails no matter what. Some of the things said and done are despicable. And without a doubt if these were about Trump and his crew the very same people would be all over it. Such hypocrisy on these boards are normal though.

Defend what exactly? Try to be as specific as possible about what it is that is in these emails that you have deemed indefensible. Please provide quotes and links to such emails.

Could you please kindly point me to one of these despicable emails? Needs to be a legit one too please. I will say if the Chinese hacked Trump I honestly wouldn't make a big deal about it. I feel its boarder line treason to use info from a foreign Government that is obviously released to influence an election. I do understand this is a difficult question and if it was something criminal that would be bad for all of us I'd say something different but we are in pretty dangerous territory with these leaks and what they can do to the foundation of our Country.

So Ecuador themselves severed his online access. I'm guessing that State finally got sick of the constant interference in the election and threatened sanctions. Not that it will stop the flow of hacked emails but I'm sure someone feels better about it.

You have four examples in rapid succession to your post.

BS. Trump is still the one screaming "Vote for me or we're all doomed".

Anyone with half a mind knows otherwise.
I only have a 1/4 of a mind so forgive my ignorance. That is 25% for those poor unfortunate souls with even less.
