Being so decrepit and broke down that you can't work more than 12 hours a week does not mean the government's size is tied to your frailty.

But then, you've already admitted that you drool....

So, I guess we're really arguing about price then.

Hillary Clinton's campaign defended the Democratic presidential nominee on Monday, following criticism of her comment that half of Donald Trump's supporters are in a "basket of deplorables."

A Clinton official said that while the nominee has expressed regret over her phrasing, there are at least some Trump supporters her campaign considers to be in the "deplorables" category.

"What should she have said? Ten percent? Twenty percent? Five percent? What would have been a more accurate number?" CNN's Wolf Blitzer asked Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon on his show.

"I don't know, Wolf. It's certainly a non-zero number," Fallon responded.

Earlier Monday, Trump called Clinton's remarks "the single biggest mistake of the political season" and called on her to retract her comments or drop out of the race for the White House.
...
Clinton on Saturday said she was wrong to generalize that "half" of Trump's supporters fell into a "basket of deplorables," while defending her attack on certain elements of his support.

"The mistake I think, Wolf, was trying to quantify it," Fallon said Monday on CNN's "Wolf."
Mr. Fallon is probably unaware of the first rule of holes.

Don't forget the rest of the Trump supporters are deserving of sympathy. That's so condescending that it's a worse insult than deplorable.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

I suppose Trump could respond with:

"Well, half of all Hillary supporters belong in a basket of lemmings."

The ironic part of this is that Hillary has also been endorsed by a grand dragon of the KKK, as well as the Black Panthers, who are the KKK for blacks, the Black Lives Matter groups of nasty racist which she openly brags about, and of course.. the Congressional Black Caucus, which is a racist group and WILL be so until there is a Congressional White Caucus.

So the truth is, Hillary has far more deplorable people in her basket than Trump could ever hope to have.

You forgot the Chairman of the Communist Party of the United States.

This election will be a national referendum on racism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia and Islamophobia. The aim should be a landslide defeat of Trump and a decisive rejection of hate.

The election of Clinton as the first woman president would make history. A landslide would not end sexism, but it would represent a mighty blow just as the election of President Obama was a blow against racism. It would advance democracy.

A landslide makes it more likely that GOP Congressional and state legislative majorities can be ousted and an end put to the politics of obstruction. Most people tend to vote straight ticket.

A landslide will give added weight to the progressive platform adopted at the Democratic Convention and give encouragement to appoint progressive Supreme Court justices. It would be added pressure against backsliding on opposition to TPP and other trade deals. It will put public opinion and the movements in a better position to pressure against Clinton's tendency toward military adventurism and policies of regime change.

With a Democratic president and Congress the post-election political terrain will shift and give immediate momentum to the new Clinton administration.

Why not just have a Congressional Racist Caucus and let anyone join?

Thanks, Ax!!

I think the NY Times is my favorite, along with the Huffington Post, for bias masquerading as sensible thought or reasonable argument.

Having a bias doesn't make a paper wrong or the facts they report on any less true.

Well if they say Trump wanted to kick veterans off the sidewalk only because NYT has a bias against Donald Trump, it doesn't mean that Trump didn't actually want to kick veterans off the sidewalk.

There might be an incomplete story they tell, but the facts they include can easily be checked.
