Not to mention that Hillary had a digital screen of sorts on her fucking podium, probably a teleprompter. And even if all of these theories are proven to be incorrect, the questions were extremely bias anyways. If the American people can't see how bias the liberal media is, they're truly retarded

Does that disqualify him from moderating with a liberal bias?

He's a total Washington insider establishment hack. R and D is almost synonymous nowadays. It's really the Washington-establishment-media-complex versus the outsider, Trump, this election cycle. I think it's pretty clear which team good old Lester is a part of.

I might agree with you, except HU was attacking progressives, and you claimed Lester had a "liberal bias".

The establishment-media-complex has a liberal leaning bias for sure. Doesn't matter if he wears the letter "R" on his forehead. He's part of the Washington-establishment-media-complex, and it leans liberal.

You're both confused. The term is "establishment", not conservative or liberal.

According to HU and Webster, "The establishment is progressive and liberal".
This forum should be moved to the kindeegarten forum, or at least some of its posters.

Wrong guys. The debate wasn't rigged at all. How normal people veiw this election is the simple choice of lesser evils. People hate Hillary. Plain and simple all trump or any guy had to do was not come over as a crazy son of a bicth . if he had just not gone off cott, remained calm then trump would win big. But thats not who he is. If you had bomb away lemay up there he win against hillary.

Sure, certain media outlets are biased towards Hillary, but we were talking about the
debate being rigged with blue screens and secret Clinton-Holt communication.
Also, it appears to me that this discussion of the debate being rigged is admonitionEDIT:admission that Trump
lost in spectacular fashion.

No it isn't. This is completely bogus logic. You're saying if you win against a cheater you wouldn't also notice that your opponent cheated? The only way to notice the cheating is when you've lost?

It stinks of sore-loserdom and is a matter of incentives. The winners of any contest have
an interest in affirming the validity of said contest and the losers have every incentive to attack
and blame the moderator, other candidates, the rules, the networks, the microphone, and everyone
but themselves for their loss.
Trump was across the stage from Clinton in a packed theater, how was there possibly a green screen
on stage or Clinton giving little-league baseball signals to Holt? Several minutes gap between Hillary
touching her nose, then Holt asks her a question?! Conspiracy!!!

Only if the winner cheated is this the case. It doesn't work the other way around. Upon winning a contest against a cheater, pointing out that the loser cheated won't have any impact whatsoever on the validity of your victory over the cheater. It actually emphasizes the weakness of your opponent, that they still couldn't win despite having cheated.

It's unbecoming and takes away from a victory for the victor to make accusations of
cheating, especially false claims without basis.
There was no cheating and the bias wasnt egregious. Trump mustEdit:lost and he has
himself to blame

You basically tried to say that someone who wins a contest that was rigged against them wouldn't call it out because to do so would risk the validity of winning against a cheater. And this seems to be the basis of your faulty logic that anyone who notices a cheater, is only doing it because they've lost.
Try going to a Casino and cheating at a card game. Do you think anyone is going to ignore the fact that you tried to cheat just because you also happen to be losing while you cheat?
Cheating is cheating, regardless of outcome.

Perhaps, just maybe the "establishment" isn't unified in trying to get
Hillary elected and have her masturbate herself with the constitution
as she herds the whites into extermination camps and gives the NWO
absolute authority over the gov't

Venezuelan President praised Bernie on his socialist ideals. Bernie espouses socialist ideas and then he walks it back when socialism fails in places like Venezuela. So basically he loves talking a big game about socialism, he just doesn't like the real world results of countries that have actually put it to practice and failed. Typical commie.

Once again, you're embarassingly wrong.
First of all, a Venezuelan praising Bernie is not the same thing as Bernie praising "Venezuelan style socialism," a term I'm sure HU just made up.
Second, Venezuela is failing because their political establishment is so fucked up that theyve had a military coup every decade for a century, and their economy is tanking because its 95% based on oil exports, of which the price has plummeted.
And finally, communism =/= socialism
Thats a hat trick of idiocy, congrats.

Wait, let me try:
Indonesian president praised (US president) on their capitalist ideals. (US President) espouses capitalist ideals and then he walks it back when capitalism fails in places like Indonesia. So basically, (US president) loves talking a big game about capitalism, he just doesnt like the real world results of countries that have put capitalism in practice and failed.
Typical anarchist.
That about right? We cherrypick a shithole capitalist nation and blame a US politician you dont like for it existing? And then call him an anarchist, right? Because even though I used the word capitalist a dozen times in my previous sentences, its clear he must ascribe to a completely different economic philosophy. Right?
Now, go ahead, allow this point to completely fly over your head, and further prove you lack the mental chops to have an honest political discussion.

Easy there, Sparky. I was just clarifying that it was in fact Venezuela that praised Bernie, and not the other way around. To my knowledge, Bernie praises European Socialism.
And socialism is to communism as a burning grove is to a full scale wildfire.

Absolute shit analogy.
Why do I only have to explain this shit to you right wingers? Youve been pissing yourselves over communism for a century but still cant define it. Theres a joke in there somewhere about fearing what you dont understand...
Anarchism: no state, private means of production
Capitalism: state exists, private means of production
Socialism: state exists, public means of production
Communism: absence of a state, public means of production
So....what did we learn today, class?
That socialism necessitates state ownership of industries, thats right! So what industries does Bernie Sanders advocate being owned by the state? Exactly one. Health insurance.
What else?
That capitalism is as far from socialism as socialism is from communism! Exactly, Billy. Good job!
So what do we say when people equivocate socialism and communism? "YOU. ARE. IGNORANT." Great job class! Your papers on the realities of climate change are due on Monday.

Let me walk this back. A better analogy would be socialism is to communism as a horse is to a horse being coerced into magically transforming itself into a unicorn. It's the ideal pot of gold at the end of the leprechaun's rainbow.
And 'commie' is a colloquial term, really. We used to call the Ruskies that, even though the USSR was really just a Socialist-State based on Marxism with the goal being eventual Communism (by enforcing an educational doctrine that would turn everyone into cooperative and virtuous people, supposedly, where the State could then dissolve). So when I call someone a 'commie', I'm not literally calling them communist so much as I'm identifying their failed state of mind regarding socio-economic idealism.
And for what it's worth, some would even label the USSR's Socialism as State-Capitalism.

Liberty News Daily, home of the trump card
He made a point about income inequality being worse here than in those nations, and he's right.
Its just like when he shared the facts about Cuba's healthcare system, and everyone was like "did he just say hes in love with castro and communism?!" Such reactionary nonsense.
Ask yourself why you've been conditioned to mentally shut down at the mere mention of anything close to socialism or communism. Why did we wage wars on nearly every continent fighting it? At the behest of the fascists we typically installed in their place?
The capitalists dont want their money fucked with.

The article was referring to this ---> http://www.sanders.senate.gov/newsroom/must-read/close-the-gaps-disparities-that-threaten-america
And this is the direct quote from Bernie's page:
Quote:
These days, the American dream is more apt to be realized in South America, in places such as Ecuador, Venezuela and Argentina, where incomes are actually more equal today than they are in the land of Horatio Alger. Who's the banana republic now?
So I'm not sure what Liberty News Daily has to do with anything in this instance, other than you being biased against conservative press.

Point being if this was anything other than a dig at the hypocrisy of American opportunity and the demonization of South American governments, it would've been covered by an outlet that people read.

The Ecstatic just pwned the 'kindeegarten club'.

The kindeegarten club said:
Hey everyone, let's play 'make believe'!
Let's pretend that Bernie wants Venezuelan socialism
Let's pretend that European socialists want to be communist
Now we can pretend that liberals are dumb!
See how cool make believe is? Now let's dance the Hokey Pokey! Kindeegarten is so much fun!!!
--------------------
I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.
