the controversial daisy ad is more truthful than most people would like to believe.

I don't care how truthful it is... I don't like that kind of BS fearmongering in a political campaign. - your reply

It might not be fearmongering - THAT's the real scary part, in my opinion. If you assume that only a portion of the relationship of Clinton with China, Lippobank, etc has been uncovered, who knows what kind of damage has really been done? Given the lithium doped attitude of the people in the US, sometimes they need the amplitude of a message beefed up a little in order to get it through an occasional thick skull.

unrelated topic - the Navy ship. I heard on the radio that soldiers on deck did not even have weapons - that because we all all buddies and now have the "warm and fuzzy" military, etc., that weapons were stored below in lockers, so in reality, the raft that was loaded with explosives could have approached the ship at 2 mph and the sailors would have been scrambling to figure out what to do - despite Yemen's history as a host of terrorism.
