"As Former US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton is on a call saying they should have rigged an election overseas. If they rig elections overseas, then they are 100% doing the exact same thing here

“I don’t think we should have pushed for an election in the Palestinian territories. I think that is a big mistake. And if we were gonna push for an election, then we should've made sure that we did something to determine who was gonna win.”

It's always stunning to see how little johnforbes knows about politics and the real world. As an overeducated dimwit he should still know better.

Every week or two Trump helps determine the outcome of elections he can't vote in by endorsing Republican candidates in various states although Trump only has (presumably) voting rights in a single state. Trump helps determine the winners of those elections by his endorsement.

But does johnforbes come here ranting about how Trump "rigged" those elections by helping determine their outcomes? Of course he doesn't, because johnforbes wants Trump's endorsed candidates to win.

Now we have an example of where a U.S. Secretary of State comes out and says that if Palestinians have a choice between electing either one terrorist group (Hezbollah) or another terrorist group (Hamas) then the U.S. should not try to help determine the outcome of the election by, say, supporting a non-terrorist candidate that couldn't get on the ballot because of lack of adequate fundraising, for example. Or that the U.S. Secretary of State should not let the Palestinians know that the U.S. would publicly support such a person.

That's just stupid, johnny, as are all of your disingenuous and ignorant purely partisan posts based purely on a pathological hatred for Hillary Clinton.

It is perfectly fine for the U.S. to announce its foreign policy to the world. Such support for known ideals can help determine the outcome of elections in foreign countries. Why johnforbes insists that leaving the Palestinians with only a choice between two terrorists is a good thing is simply beyond human understanding.

Why it is "rigging" an election when the U.S. Government helps determine the outcome of one particular election between terrorists by supporting a non-terrorist option, but when Trump does the same sort of thing in states where he cannot vote johnforbes heartily supports it? When giving people a real choice (between terrorists or non-terrorists) helps determine the outcome of a foreign election away from the terrorists running, that's a good thing, dummy.

Hillary was absolutely right in her opinion on the Palestinian election. And the most idiotic aspect of this is that johnforbes agrees with her policy position--if only Trump had said it first.

Thanks to Clowntoker for inviting attention to the education of Mr Forbes.

Yes, it is true that his magnificent presence -- not to mention his taut and tawny physique -- has graced the groves of academe.

But Mr Forbes is not merely cerebral, but also pragmatic.

Democrats denied every single election since 2000, and the evidence of that is trivially easy to find.

Mr Forbes believes in election integrity -- every valid vote should be counted as cast, and elections should be utterly and completely fair no matter who wins or loses.

And voters should be able to go back, count paper ballots a week later or a year later, and check to be certain.

As Reagan said, 'Trust but verify."

"Thanks to His Lordship for inviting attention to the education of Mr Forbes."-johnfoibles

Why thank me now, dummy? I have been inviting attention to your dimwittedness for years. Or are you just so dimwitted that you're only now noticing it?

Nevertheless, you're welcome, johnny. I know my honesty about your dimwittedness must be refreshing to a partisan scumbag like you who is used to swallowing the obvious childish lies of someone like Trump.


"Democrats denied every single election since 2000,..."-johnflubs

So what's your point, dimwit? Nobody has ever said Trump can't "deny" whatever he wants to deny. You're merely playing semantics games.

What is unforgivable about Trump is that nearly four years later he still has not conceded his election loss, which every single Republican investigating the election has agreed Trump lost. No one has found any evidence whatsoever of widespread fraud. Why Republicans won't accept the findings of Republican-run investigations is baffling. Every single Democrat running for office has always conceded a loss in the past. Sadly, more Republicans than just Trump have still refused to concede their losses without any evidence to support their dishonest assertions that they won, causing untold damage to voters' faith in our electoral system.


"Mr Forbes believes in election integrity"-johndickhead

Nobody cares what you believe, dimwit. We care about what you do. We care that you lack the integrity to step up and insist that Republicans support election results when no evidence of election fraud is present. This proves your hatred for our country because no American who loves this country would stand for this sort of assault on our democracy by failing to concede to valid election results.

Let me say that again for the dishonest and dimwitted in the Republican Party: "no American who loves this country would stand for this sort of assault on our democracy by failing to concede to valid election results." All Democrats running for office do so. But not all Republicans running for office do so. And partisan clowns like johnforbes have never found even a shred of evidence that the results of the 2020 election were not valid.

It begs the question, "Why do unAmerican assholes like johnforbes hate America so much that they continue this unfounded, frivolous assault on our democracy?


"As Reagan said, 'Trust but verify."-Dishonestfuckhead

And that's exactly what Republicans did, didn't they, dummy. Why are you pretending they didn't? Republicans verified the election results multiple times. Not a single Republican ever found any evidence of election-changing fraud. They lost their legal challenges over 60 times in the courts, including the Supreme Court. But to this day Republicans demonstrate a lack of respect for the law.

It begs the question, "Why do demonstrably unAmerican assholes like johnforbes, Kari Lake, and Donald Trump hate America so much that they continue this unfounded, frivolous assault on our democracy?"

Why should we thank Mr Forbes?

Why indeed?

But the question is obviously quite easy to answer.

The contributions of Mr Forbes to the World Wide Interwebs would fill a cybernetic Smithsonian.

From the first online chatrooms Mr Forbes founded with Wilma Flintstone, there were Forbesian fingerprints all over the magnificent contributions to western culture he made.

Back then, men were men and women were grateful.

Back then, modems were made of wood, and pioneers such as Mr Forbes were knights without armor in the savage land of the early Interwebs.

^^^^^^ Once again I make johnforbes look like the intellectually impotent imbecile he is and all he can do is put on his Stepin-Fetchit-shit-eating grin and start in on his embarrassing blackface shuck and jive that he resorts to whenever he can't refute a thing that has been said by his intellectual superiors.

Unfortunately, johnforbes posted the wrong video. He meant to post a link to "Ballad of Pablum Have Grin Will Babble" which covers his entire jerk-off MO when taking part in political debates.

It's no coincidence that more than one jerk-off Republican has called johnforbes a masterdebater.

^^^^^^^There goes johnforbes dressing up as another famous cowboy from Frisco, reminiscent of his flamboyant stint in the Village People in the 70s.

It never loses that special thrill for you, does it, johnny....

Heavens to Betsy (please pardon this harsh language).

Paladin was not from San Francisco, but merely resided there.

Back then, Frisco was a fine town, with lovely cool summers.

It was not the den of dark, depraved, demented deeds which Clowntoker socialistically soiled during his tawdry tenure in now-fetid Frisco.
