Oh God, I remember sharing liberal Facebook meme pictures for a month. I stopped when I realized that it made me look wacky as nobody else really does it. At least my heart was in the right if wrong place. Thankfully on my feed, I don't see anything like these pictures. Helps I'm in liberal Massachusetts lol, although I'm great acquaintances with my boss who's a Christian conservative (thankfully, he doesn't share anything silly), so it's all good! But my, these pics are so awful, to both look at and read.

For those who don't want to look it up, from the New American Standard Bible.

3And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who acurses you I will curse. And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”

So basically, you can't say anything bad about Israel.

It's not the actual verse but rather the expectation of a federal agency abiding by a Biblical verse when it comes to International relations
 
My immediate family is pretty good about not posting garbage. Most of my friends are pretty good about it. I do have one "friend" in particular that gets a chub to anything GOP or anti-Obama, to the point where Satan could run as the Republican nominee and he'd vote for him over Obama.

I don't mind political posts as long as it isn't inflammatory or completely ridiculous like saying global warming doesn't exist. Sharing pictures from an aggregate page doesn't showcase your intelligence or accomplish anything worthwhile. Those do annoy me since very rarely do they encourage positive discussion. I'll occasionally like a Bernie Sanders post from his page here and there. I hope that activity isn't showing up on people's feed. I don't want to be that person who posts a lot of political stuff.
 
This is a good overview of H. Clinton's past bad decisions and ineptness generally...not to mention the corruption involved. A nice summary for young people who might not have been around during Clinton's earlier years.

"WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?"
If you're under 50 you really need to read this, if you are over 50, share it with those under fifty.

When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.

Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.

Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovery of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.

Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.

Many younger votes will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She had them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.

Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House.

Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.

Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle was: She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones. She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr's investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.

Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for 'lying under oath' to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.

Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.

After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.

What a swell party – ready for another four or eight year of this type low-life mess?

Now we are exposed to the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next. But to her loyal fans - “what difference does it make?”

Electing Hillary Clinton president would be like granting Satan absolution and giving him the keys to heaven!

My facebook feed never fails to give me hilarity from the leftist side of things though:

I don't think it needs translation but let me know.

Edit:

Translation as requested:


"Latinamerica's double standard"

Elizabeth II side:
"supported invasion to Afghanistan, Lybia and Irak"
"61 years in power"
"DEMOCRACY"

Fidel Castro side:
"Sends doctors and teachers to Africa and Latinamerica"
"49 years in power"
"DICTATOR"

Yeah, let's excuse the cops clearly abusing their power. Much like the rest of us, I see officers can be power-hungry and abusive assholes too. It's just that way too many are like that. I also see fucking people looking down and dehumanizing black americans as if they were animals. Ugh... I'd be tempted to go off on somebody if I saw that crap on my feed.

Just better to unfriend or unfollow. You will create a bubble but it's worth it. Unfollow is helpful because they can't catch feelings about not being their friend, like for family or people you like despite their Facebook posts.

I love how being filmed is supposed to be some horrible act of violating their rights or something.

Oh yeah, I know and understand. I don't want to get too ot here, but aside from having empathy and decency, one of the reasons I get so angry seeing that kind of crap on social media is because growing up, I had a few dear friends (who are black), and I always treated them the same as everybody else. We've parted ways for years, but the thought of them being killed because some officer got a dehuminizing stare or was in a bad mood and then having their character assassinated online just makes me sick.

Well, whether you like Castro or not, he is the definition of a dictator.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Living in the area where the WDBJ shooting took place, thankfully everyone's been really level-headed and respectful when it comes to people I know...but, of course, I expected there to be across the 'net some less than savory reactions due to the race of the perpetrator...

According to reports, Flanagan put a deposit down on the gun he used in this crime two days after the Charleston shooting. This was a cold and calculated crime that had been planned for months. No proposed gun legislation would have prevented such a racially-motivated murder, but changing our culture to stop setting one group of people above another might.

And of course I've seen the usual brain-dead "huhuh Obama's son!" comment, which is even more bizarre than usual since it wasn't a young man this time.

Came here to post this since I've seen it making rounds in all the news stories posted to fb. Could it be that the motive for these two attacks were entirely different? Nah, any time you kill someone it's cause of their race.

In addition, liberals called for gun control in both instances. A quick google search would show people that. Obama himself said he was going to do something with or without congress. It's just that in addition to calling for gun control, liberals said "Oh hey, ain't it kind of fucked up to have this symbol of our racist history flying in the capitol of the state that this horrible racist crime happened in?"

And his racist manifesto+pictures with said flag+burning American flags..although, those things are easily ignored. Funny, huh?
