Raise your hand if you have never said anything ugly about someone in a private conversation. Now let's get any Dem politicians to raise their hands. Finally, those holier than thou liberal media types.
No hands raised. And so my point is made.

I am sorry I cannot give most of the American media a break in not subjecting Trump to serious scrutiny. He still has it far too easy by Brit standards. He should have been subjected to grilling after grilling from reporters. He should have been challenged hard on every one of his lies, with the actual facts thrown in his face immediately for a response. He hasn't been asked enough hard hitting questions, and he shouldn't have been allowed to get away with non answers. Reporters need to put him on the spot and get an answer out of him either way. If it's BS, then call it BS straight away.
And I'm so tired of the false equivalence from the media for so much of the campaign.
The media needs to do some serious soul searching when it's all over and examine if it sold away its soul for clicks.
Wow, you must be watching another media. The elite liberal media in this country has been all over Trump. Hillary, they leave alone. I wonder why?

There are those people that pretend they don't have a problem with Muslims, Blacks, Asians or Mexicans. On the streets they will be nice, they will smile and nod, but once they're sitting at their tables in private with nobody watching or listening they'll unleash the venom because at their own table, political correctness goes out the window. Haters hide it when they're outside so they don't get into trouble and don't show that they're prejudiced in any way. That's why Trump supporters follow Donald Trump, because they don't have to pretend anymore and don't have to hide their hatred and venom for when they're in private conversation. They're haters and want to be haters openly and without apologies, they want to be able to have their ignorance openly and to the fullest extent. They want to behave as Donald Trump behaves which is incorrectly and dangerous. The open hatred of others is completely liberating for them.
Just typical race card liberal policies. I am not racist nor I have met anyone at a Republican rally that was.
This is used because liberals won't admit that we don't like their candidates because they are liberals and promote liberalism. That's what we don't like.

What I don't, can't, understand is how anyone can LIKE Trump. Like, actually LIKE him. I can see "ugh, he's a shithead, but I'll vote for him anyway," but I do not get the love.
Those on the right feel the same about Hillary.

Starting my diatribe with an old quote; "The only enemy that's more dangerous than a man with unlimited resources is a man with absolutely nothing to lose."
To truly understand this man you have to begin who he's aggressive against. It's not only Hillary Clinton because she's his adversary. The highest electedRepublican in America, Paul Ryan has suddenly been demonized by Donald Trump. The list goes on, John McCain, George H.W.Bush, Mitt Romney, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, John Kasich, Jeb Bush, Lindsey Graham, Christine Todd Whitman, Tom Ridge, Mel Martinez. There's no end to the list and these are all REPUBLICANS. Hillary Clinton just happens to be standing directly in his line of fire, but it's absolute truth that any one of these prominent Republicans opposing Donald Trump would be in his line of fire if any one of them opposed him in any way. He would mow them down in a heartbeat. This man has abandoned every moral and religious ethic that has been embedded at the core of the Republican creed for generations. Do you think that Donald Trump will suddenly change who he is and be loyal to anyone but himself? Will he fight for what's right and not just what's best for Donald Trump?
This election has morphed into something far beyond Trump Vs. Clinton. This has become an issue of whether the Republican party will be obliterated or will it be able to survive. The Republican Party has existed since 1854, One hundred and sixty-two years of party loyalty is being systemically destroyed from within. Now, I don't know many Democrats that would have any problem with that at all. But if I were a Republican that believed in the party and yet was participating in the implosion of that very party, I would be questioning my motives.
Too funny. We have the House, the Senate and the Governorships. We are in a heated battled to take the Presidency.
If anyone is in trouble, it's the Dems. You have Hillary, an awful candidate and you had an old socialist to challenge her.
Trump is a fighter unlike the recent Republicans in Congress.
All the pontification about the end of the Republican Party considering you can't even get one decent challenger to Hillary is silly.
We had 16 to Trump. Who is running for the Dem nomination in 2020 if Hillary loses?

Our government got pretty big under Republicans, especially the Defense Dept., with no plan to pay for it. (Think about that totally unnecessary Iraq war.) It's Democrats who are more economically sound. What's that old Truman saying? "If you want to live like a Republican, you've got to vote for a Democrat."
21 trillion debt? Under Obama. So much for sound economic policy.

Trump and pal (convicted sex offender) Epstein are being sued by a woman who said she was raped by them when she was 13:

Yet Trump can cast stones at Bill Clinton!
The funny thing is that Hillary and the libs started it and Trump just fired back. Clinton and Hillary are far, far worse.

As I've said I'm not thrilled with Hillary either, but you don't harbor any concern about Trump's temper?
Someone told me he would have people around to advise him and keep him in check (as it were), but His revolving Campaign Managers seem to get worst and worst. One he had to fire because he had unsavory and financial ties to a combative foreign power and his replacement is a new-era white supremacist. I am honestly asking, do you think a Trump presidency would be ok for minorities? Or the Middle Class and the Poor, considering pretty much every working analyst says you will need to be part of the 1% to benefit from Trump's Tax plans.
Have you seen what some Secret Service Agents said about Hillary's temperament. She cusses like a sailor and is rude and arrogant.
The racist stuff is nonsense. Liberals pander to them every election and nothing changes.
Yep, Trump would be good for minorities and the poor. Cutting taxes on business creates jobs. And how are the poor supposed to benefit directly from tax cuts when they don't pay any taxes?
You are spouting liberal talking points. Think about it a little.

Didn't say that. Said they would go after the 2nd amendment.

I really liked it. The one problem is what most have said. Trying to change time for the better is not a good idea.
And not only is Luka causing trouble, but our gang going back to stop him is causing a lot of damage.
I did like the period piece and look forward to more of this. The acting is good, but the show after a couple of more eps will have to go in a different direction than Luka tries to change time and our gang goes back to stop him.

He was my first choice because he fought against PC and was willing to fight for us, unlike so many Republicans who kowtow to libs and the media.
Hillary would be a disaster for this country. She would go after our second amendments rights with all the SC justices that will be put on the court in the next term.
She is for raising taxes and big gov't. Something our country doesn't need.

Worst President of my lifetime. Accomplished nothing.
Divided the races for political gain.
Socialized medicine(which doesn't work)
21 trillion debt.
Let's potential terrorists in our country...
I'll be so glad when he's gone....and perish the thought of him ever being on the SC.

I thought the episode was certainly better than the midseason finale. Lots of deaths and walkers were good. I thought the episode was at least average and in some spots above average, but still no where near WD.
I'm glad someone mentioned something that's becoming a trope on this show. People with guns running from walkers or getting overwhelmed by them when they just have to keep shooting.

I'm laughing at all the handwringing over the time travel repercussions. We simply don't know what they would be, if anything. I like the different takes on it to see what they come up with.
And 11.22.63 was really good show about time travel. It was a Stephen King adaptation and dealt with going back to stop the Kennedy assassination. If you haven't seen it, give it a look, it was really suspenseful and has an incredible ending.
I liked it and I think it's not going to be cancelled.

Flynn took several people with him when he went back in time, so he already set a different future in motion.
As long as they didn't interfere with anything, that wouldn't set a different future.

I've liked time travel shows going all the way back to 1966's Time Tunnel, which put character's into mostly famous historical settings (Titanic, Gettysburg, Peal Harbor).
Timeless looks like they are going to go back and keep the historical timeline accurate, if so that could work. I'll be curious what settings they'll go to.
Wow, another TT fan. That was my first exposure to time travel. Loved that show. So underrated.
Time travel is a good premise just like space shows. You should be able to write at least a good show since one has a lot of material and a lot of different directions to go.

It was an interesting season. I had never watched any of the previous seasons and the only person I remember who made a name that is known to me from past seasons would be Evancho.
I am thinking about going back and looking at past seasons. Strange isn't it that I won't be spoiled at some seasons that happened years ago since no one else has become famous from this show. Idol had a number of them.

Oh, one more thing. I'm interested in Ofelia's story, both present-day and back-story.
Ofelia doesn't have a story. I can't remember a character who has been on a show for two years who has no storyline. The first season she was shot and then she disappeared in season 2 on the boat. I forgot her. She shows up now and she is running around a hotel. What a totally wasted character.
Well, we know that Alejandro is a kook and Colonia is just as screwed up as Terminus and Alexandria were, just different.
Is there any good place to stay? No, not the Holiday Inn Walker Express, where Maddie puts on a light show nightly.
Maddie: "I'm not really a mother, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Walker Express last night."

Really liked the pier idea. The tide may take most of them out or they will get eaten, but I don't think I would be swimming anytime soon in that water. It might not be a jellyfish on your leg.

Oh well, another average episode. Some dopey things by the characters and some interesting things.
I like that Strand is making a comeback after his pathetic showing in the last two eps before the break.
The Lochte trio can't be long for this world.
And Chris is really annoying.

Well, considering the same dogs were trying to eat Nick just a few minutes earlier, I'll cut Nick some slack on that'un. Turnabout is fair play. :)
I thought his name was Nick Clark, not Jack Kerouac.
I don't think it matters. They aren't checking ID's in this show.

Wow, what an ending to a great show that I will miss. Loved all the actors and characters.
Job was great and would love to see him in his own show.
I liked how they had Proctor going down, but we don't see him die, just like Davy Crockett in the Alamo.
This will definitely go down as one of my top shows of all time.

I completely agree with your post. It would have made sense to keep Rebecca and only kill her off in the last few episodes. Her exit from the show was so abrupt, not to mention that Hood's bonding with her in the flashbacks to give them a deeper connection again, felt forced and rushed. They haven't really interacted a lot in recent seasons. It would also have been interesting to see her second-guess her choice to stay in Proctor's life, something they alluded to in the flashbacks and the Banshee origins episode, but something they didn't flesh out a lot. Last season she was determined to live in this world, her sudden inner conflict this season could have been explored more with a little bit more time.
Her exit was also not really beneficial to Proctor's storyline as he lost one of the main characters that he interacted with, when he was not crossing paths with Hood. With Hood and Proctor barely at each other's throats this season, Proctor had almost nobody to play off (Calvin was a non-entity since he was new, Burton is great, but he's always been more of a silent scene partner).
But generally, I think it was obvious that the budget for the show was cut really deeply this season and that they decided to end the show, because they felt like they couldn't guarantee to deliver two seasons up to the standards of the first three seasons with a cut budget and even more potential budget cuts in the future. I think- creatively - the show had two seasons left in it and with all the new players they introduced in late season three, it certainly felt as if they were setting up the show for a longer run.
I think the final season was solid despite some flaws. I already miss the show. Did you guys notice that the last line in the show was "what are you going to do now?" ? Well, what are we going to do now that the show is over?
And Faith said to Buffy, "What are you going to do now?" .....the last line in Buffy.

Another reasonably average ep. Lots better than last year.

I too thought the episode was okay. I think it was good to separate the family from all the soap opera nonsense. And the episode before this one was the worst of the series. So, the show could only go up.
Yep, sure the bad guy was dumb to just let the walkers get him. Trying to pick up his bullets rather than get back to the car made no sense.
But, I sort of enjoyed Nick's trek across America. Not Walking Dead, but at least some of it was average.

The voting system is worth looking at. AI did a disservice to that with their multi-voting system that corrupted the results. With Tamyra, Latoya, Daughtery and finally Doolittle all being voted out, I quit on Idol. No reason to get invested in acts when the system doesn't record excellence. I heard AI somewhat changed it later, but the damage was done and what could have been some incredible finals turned into mostly routs.
So with AGT, we have ten finalists, so it would be an average of 10% per act. Of course, we know that didn't happen, so we safely assume no one got 33% because they said the top three were within 1% and that would mean almost no one else got a vote. So, we can be assured that the most anyone got was in the 20's. But, again that would mean the top three got almost 60% and I have a feeling that didn't happen. So, I assume that Grace probably got somewhere between 14-18%.
That's interesting that the winner didn't even get one third of the vote. Of course, you change the system, you change the outcome. If they did like Al and eliminated one person a week, you know the order would have been different. Who knows, Grace might not have won.
I also wouldn't give too much credence to the order of finish. The difference between many of the spots were probably a small percentage. And AGT allowed I believe 30 votes on different mediums, so that would be slanting the vote a little. If I vote 5 times and someone else votes 20 times, why should their opinion count more? Can you imagine if we elected the President like that?
I always thought 4 votes per phone would be fair, the average number in each household. But, Idol like claiming 10's of millions of votes were coming each week and didn't want to change it to damage that advertisement, even to make it an even playing field.
I wonder if AGT would even release the vote totals. I don't believe AI ever did, but it would be fun to see the final AGT totals.

As usual, liberals won't admit the mainstream media is liberal. They always seem to have an excuse. I wonder why.
Raise your hand if you think ABC, CBS, NBC, PMSNBC and CNN aren't liberal?
