Cankles Forgets Where She Is

sure----a democrat will be our next president.

Ok. So I'm now offering the following (slightly modified) bet: You get paid $10 if the next elected President is a Democrat and you pay $35 if the next elected President is not a Democrat. Still interested?

no---because it might be a liberal with a different party label. One never knows about these things.

100% sure yet won't make a bet that is paying 3.5 to 1.

Lol!

Speaking to an audience in New Hampshire, the grifter who wants to be president thinks she's still in D.C.



Has she fallen and cracked her noggin on a counter top again?

I like your avatar of Hillary immitating Monica.

So when you said a "democrat will be our next President" you didn't actually mean that you were that certain about it. That's a major part of why I ask people to make bets. It helps clarify how certain they are. Once one constructed a bet, another category occurred to you that you wanted to include. Making bets helps encourage people to engage in critical thinking. So now that we've got this new category of "liberal", let's explore this a little bit. By your definition, what would count as a liberal candidate?

People make bets on whims, hunches, intuition, superstition and plain guesses all which have nothing to do with critical thinking. Just ask anyone in Vegas.

Anyone want to have a stupid things said by politicians contest? Don`t misunderestimate me. After all, "rarely is it asked is our children learning"? Being that this is a holiday, we can all take a day off from "putting food on our family"

Hillary has brain damage from the header tumble she took while in one of her many drunken stupors.

No wonder her staff wants to limit her exposure...

Right. Should she even be running considering recent health issues? December 12, 2012.

Hillary Clinton health scare Hillary Clinton hospitalized with blood clot - ABC15 Arizona


WASHINGTON - Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was admitted to a New York hospital Sunday after the discovery of a blood clot stemming from the concussion she sustained earlier this month.

The seriousness of a blood clot "depends on where it is," said Dr. Gholam Motamedi, a neurologist at Georgetown University Medical Center who was not involved in Clinton's care.

Clots in the legs are a common risk after someone has been bedridden, as Clinton may have been for a time after her concussion. Those are "no big deal" and are treated with six months of blood thinners to allow them to dissolve on their own and to prevent further clots from forming, he said.

A clot in a lung or the brain is more serious. Lung clots, called pulmonary embolisms, can be deadly, and a clot in the brain can cause a stroke, Motamedi said.

Sure. But that's not to say that one can't use bets to also aid critical thinking. And in particular, asking someone if they'll bet on something is a useful way of doing that, and then actually making bets can help clarify it.

So, do you have a definition of liberal you'd like to use?

Feel free to use bets to aid in your critical thinking. I've been to casinos and seen all these critical thinkers. This has nothing to do with critical thinking. This is simply my opinion.
