I'm suspicious that sociopaths are a parasitic subspecies. Like there are these alien creatures that look entirely human walking around among us. They look like us, talk like us, but think that the general human species is inferior to their own.
What if they could identify other sociopaths, and were working in concert. Hmm, this is ridiculous.
Anyway, yeah. I don't think Clinton is capable of that level of introspection.
Obama won in a landslide. The democrats owned both houses.
People at the time really thought Obama would be on the the side of the people- not the rich. I mean, come on, he was our first black president; you would have thought he would at least be on the side of the blacks.
If he had been, then Bernie wouldn't have been such a sensation. If he had been, and Hillary was like, "Obama and the DNC has anointed me his successor, and I will continue to do all the great things he has done," Bernie wouldn't have existed. Bernie was the message that Obama had actually failed. Flint was real.
Anyway. If Trump has one Lieberman senator stopping him from getting some signature item, you can bet that their meeting isn't going to end with that signature item being scuttled, it's going to be that Lieberman would be afraid he'll lose everything.
Trump is extreme, but Obama could have made the final push. Same with our black torture rendition site.
For me, seeing Obama is cringe. I wonder if that viewpoint is radical. I mean, Obama is a saint when compared to Trump, but...
Perhaps I am unjustified.
Yeah.
I also think he could have closed Guantanamo.
And I even think he could have bailed out the people that lost their houses and not the people that owned (banks, through predatory loans) the houses.
I still think he should have nationalized the banks that failed and renamed them to "Bank A" and "Bank B." But no, no consequences for the rich under Obama just like everyone else.
Crazy huh.
As far as the first part of your response: Hmm, that's interesting.
As far as the, "Bruh, do you not remember.."
Yes, I remember how Obamacare was passed.
Do you you remember how it seemed like a public option should pass- it had a ton of support- people were rallying behind it.
And then DroopyDog Senator Lieberman had that touted "meeting with Obama" and the public option was scuttled.
From the moment that happened, I thought, "Lieberman's the fall guy. The democrats don't want the public option, and Obama isn't any different from everyone else before him." (think Flint, think Guantanamo, think Bank bailouts, think Bank Bailouts again). If Obama had wanted it, he could have done it. I mean, look at Trump. He didn't.
At the time I was furious with Lieberman and Obama- now, just Obama.

Holy cow. I didn't think people spent money on orchestras anymore. That's like maybe 40 pieces. If recording was over 6 hours, that would be what around 25K.. Plus studio space plus recording equipment and engineers, microphones, admin, maybe 50K. I guess it's not as much as I thought. Huh, I wonder what the budget was.
Huh, interesting. I wonder how many anime use live orchestras. I read many many years ago, that video games were using eastern european orchestras, but that even those had become too expensive. I guess I really have no idea.
