look into the mirror...reread your posts...

I would say I'm a consequentialist, but that's a philosophical outlook, not a religion. It's more about wanting to achieve the best possible (or least worst) possible outcome, not about devotion, or even liking a particular candidate. I think I see what you're getting at, but you're misinterpreting everything I've written because you are so knee-jerk about really everything. It's more of a rational logical decision. Anyone with an elementary school math background can see that the best way to prevent the worst outcome is to vote for Clinton. So absolutely I'm all in with her campaign. I've said before, it's the easiest decision I've ever had to make in my life. . Consequently I downplay her faults and give her passes. At this point, I'm locked in and due to the dire circumstances, there is no room for objectivity. Being decisive, rational, and logical is a virtue, you ought to try it some time. Finally, please don't compare you life situation with mine and project all your problems, insecurities and general butthurtedness upon me.

Bob, I'm really not that religious, just would like to not be a nililist. E buddy has a good sound pragmatic philosophy that I agree with, for the most part. It's an ultra easy vote for me.

think about when I argued about the Clintons amassing 100 million through peddling influence in a most vile way. Your response was "good for her". Did you really believe that?

Today's compromise is tomorrow's norm. Ever heard that? Would that idea sound like the pitiful situation we find ourselves in? Choose the least offensive, or ignore and accept the offense because you believe the promises?

don't go on the offensive because I'm asking for introspection. It means I'm striking a nerve, no?
