@gollum
Thanks for that news from last week.
You think republicans are going to be influenced by that?? Good luck. Republicans vote for Hilary because MSM tells them they don't like Trump.... nah
One might almost think a struggling newspaper did it for the publicity? You ever heard of the Dallas Morning News before? They got few days of being on every major news site.... good deal. Smart business. -
Funny song below. (lyrics actually about a Swedish King) because some of my very leftist friends still see Trump in this light (the 2nd coming of Hitler)
And here is an interesting article by Scott Adams.

Long Bloomberg interview with the "face" of Atl-right & Breitbart news. He's a deeply inpleasant person, but he makes some very valid points, especially in this election cycle & the way its being run -
*âWe live in a post-fact era. Itâs wonderful,â he says, pointing to various web pages on his giant computer screen that show photos of, supposedly, Bill Clintonâs grown black son. âThe Washington Post gives a truth check, and no one cares. Now you have to use the truth and other strategies. You have to be persuasive. Dumpy lesbian feminists and shrieking harpies in the Black Lives Matter movement are not persuasive,â he says, digging into the egg, turkey, and avocado scramble prepared by his full-time trainer.
...
Tonight, Hillary Clinton is in Reno, Nev., delivering a speech on the alt-right. Yiannopoulos loads it up on YouTube, where the alt-right has taken over the comments section, a furious scroll of swastikas, âniggerâs, and âbuild the wallâs. The speech has been postponed by three hours, and Yiannopoulos is convinced itâs because Clinton is gravely ill. âIs that a catheter in her shirt?â he says as soon as she enters the frame. âListen to her voice! Sheâs sick!â he yells about her hoarseness.Halfway through her speech about the conspiracy-pandering and racism of Trump and the alt-right, Clinton reads four Breitbart headlines. Two of them are from Yiannopoulos articles.
âBirth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazyâ
âWould You Rather Your Child Had Feminism or Cancer?â
He stands up, claps, and spins around. Yiannopoulos has hit the troll jackpot: He wrote outrageous headlines trying to provoke liberals, and the worldâs top liberal read them with head-shaking seriousness, falling for the prank. He directs Bokhari, sitting 5 feet away, to quickly write an article for Breitbart about this. They give it the headline âMilo to Hillary: You Did This.â As crazy as that sounds, once you understand troll logic, itâs pretty much true.*

some of these review comments are HILARious
The chapter where Hillbilly talks about her battle with Parkinson's Disease was difficult to read. Difficult because it was missing from the book.
Spoiler alert--the title refers to her technique of getting into vans.
I was going to read this book.....I really was. But just as I got started, I found myself under sniper fire, passed out, and fell and hit my head. After that I got double vision and had to wear glasses that were so damn thick I couldn't even see to read. Then I had an allergic reaction to something and started coughing so hard I spit out what looked like a couple of lizard's eyeballs, my limbs locked up, and I passed out and fell down again, waking up only to find out I had been diagnosed with pneumonia 2 days earlier. Somehow I managed to power through it all, but it's a good thing I was able to make a small fortune on this random small trade in the commodities market (cattle futures or some such thing) and then, miracle of all miracles, a few banks offered me a few million to just talk to their employees for a few minutes - and all that really helped out because I swear I was dead broke and couldn't figure out how I was gonna come up with the 6 bucks to pay for this book, let alone pay the $1,500 for my health insurance this month. I still want to read it, but, honestly, what difference at this point does it make? I hear it sucks anyway.

Hmmm. I wonder what the deleted post was about....

@Rancid-Schnitzel Yes, I'm intrigued too.

It was nothing interesting. It just used a naughty word.
