That’s hilarious, holden. Your suggestion that DWS was fired for not being able to lie fast enough may actually be true. At the same time, it’s comedy gold. Thanks for putting it out there—bol!

Next they will be claiming the Russians are impersonating the Sanders delegates—and they call us conspiracy theorists!

So, the DNC was suddenly and deliberately attacked by cyber forces of Russia?

‘Has Trump ever given Putin a Reset Button?’

In fairness, Hillary didn’t give Putin a reset button either. You didn’t think Hillary’s State Dept was actually competent enough to translate a single word into Russian, did you?

Hillary gave the Russians an ‘overcharged,’ button. Par for the course.

(CNN) — When it comes to Russia, the Obama administration has been talking about “pressing the reset button.” It’s meant to symbolize a possible new start in U.S./Russian relations, which “crashed” after Russia invaded Georgia last August.

So when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton greeted Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Geneva Friday before sitting down to their working dinner, she was all smiles when she presented him a small green box with a ribbon.

Lavrov opened it and, inside, there was a red button with the Russian word “peregruzka” printed on it.

“I would like to present you with a little gift that represents what President Obama and Vice President Biden and I have been saying and that is: ‘We want to reset our relationship, and so we will do it together.’ …

“We worked hard to get the right Russian word. Do you think we got it?” she asked Lavrov, laughing.

“You got it wrong,” said Lavrov, as both diplomats laughed.

“It should be “perezagruzka” [the Russian word for reset],” said Lavrov.”This says ‘peregruzka,’ which means ‘overcharged.’”

Has Trump ever met Putin?

Has Trump ever corresponded with Putin?

Has Trump ever given Putin a Reset Button?

Has Trump ever told the President of Russia that he would be more flexible regarding U.S. Policy after the Election?

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Has anyone ever seen Trump and Putin in the same room at the same time?

When Cuomo was Secretary of HUD under Clinton he was known as “the undertaker” so Clinton wasn’t the only making comments about alleged organized crime ties.

If this is true, why did Debbie Wafflehouse Schultz quit her position? If she were innocent, she would have stayed and defended herself by presenting the original emails.

Sorry, not buying it.

(From the article) :" Thomas Rid at Motherboard Vice reported on the discovery this morning:
The metadata in the leaked documents are perhaps most revealing: one dumped document was modified using Russian language settings,
by a user named “Феликс Эдмундович,” a code name referring to the founder of the Soviet Secret Police,
the Cheka, memorialised in a 15-ton iron statue in front of the old KGB headquarters during Soviet times.
The original intruders made other errors: one leaked document included hyperlink error messages in Cyrillic, the result of editing the file on a computer with Russian language settings.
After this mistake became public, the intruders removed the Cyrillic information from the metadata in the next dump and carefully used made-up user names from different world regions,
thereby confirming they had made a mistake in the first round.

INGORE THE MESSAGE
SHOOT THE MESSENGER,.. especially if its bad NEWS !
..a typical DemonRat concept !

THAT little tid-bit ought to have appeared as part of the opening sentence.

“Although it does not appear that the actual content of the leaked documents has been altered, evidence has emerged indicating Russian hackers tampered with email later released by Wikileaks.”

The media spin:

Russian altered email:
“Let’s screw Bernie the Jew over. Hillary rulez Bernie droolz”

Original DNC email:
“Bernie deserves a fair shot after all so let’s go out of the way to make this a fair choice for the voters”

I came up with a theory when Clinton was in office.

Supporters aren’t necessarily looking for proof you haven’t done something wrong. They are looking for an alternate story they can sign on to.

The story doesn’t have to be solid. It just have to provide a framework for the supporters to hang their hat on.

Vast Right Wing Conspiracy... that’s all it took for many Democrats to just write off the crimes of the Clintons.

Now it’s a vast Russian conspiracy...

Typical Mrs. Clinton supporter..., “Yep, I knew it. She couldn’t have done anything wrong.”

Excellent point. When caught in an embarrassing situation, Liberals are always looking for an excuse and someone else to blame.

I remember the VRW conspiracy interview and Hillary. I also remember liberals arguing that oral sex isn't sex and other absurdities when it was clear that he was guilty. It had little to do with sex — ol billy was caught tampering with witnesses and perjury and the original charge was sexual harassment which Liberals seemed to think it was a serious issue during the Clarence Thomas hearings.

The Liberal mind is pretty sick. I wonder sometimes how they can sleep at night. They probably sleep just fine because they are sick and twisted.

This is why we need a fighter like Trump. Liberals are not civil but oh do they pretend to be civil and we need someone like Trump to call them out.

Hillary’s supporters are looking for excuses not facts. Give then a nice chant to repeat and drown out any opposition.

The sources of this story are NPR, MV and MSDNC.
That is ironclad proof that the Russians did not do it.

Good find.

If the Russians were involved, they probably have been altered. Even if they have been altered, they might still have some currency.

Yep, subversion 101.

It’s why college kids now have safe places.

They shouldn’t have to listen to opposing views.

Their Liberal professors will set them straight, and then get them to self sensor any exposure to an alternative idea.

Sick sick sick...
