I am going to take this moment to say for what you pay, rogers nighspeed internet sucks dik.
period
Hillary Clinton is stealing your bandwidth.
Ah, out on a terr are we?
Actually, come to find out today rogers supplies the whole downtown here with free tourist internet apparently and the tourists are using up the bandwidth when we have these town tourist weekends. Its like the parking - the locals pay all week and then it's free for tourists on the weekends.
As to Hillary using it, I don't think we supply her jail, could you ask her where she logs on when you see her at supper?
The reason I mentioned it is because at 1 or 2 megs it's hard to even log into the forum to post, or worse, edit.
We pay for the full megs though, which we aren't getting, so I can see the reference to Hillary as being accurate.

Apparently you have completely missed the point. The fact that you have any services at all is primarily due to democratic socialist policies. The fact that right wing governments have chosen not to maintain them is entirely another matter. However, as a right winger, which of these services would you like to see downgraded even further? "I'll give you a list - water and sewage, roads and road maintenance, police and fire services, municipal parks and recreational facilities. I could list several hundred others, but I'm guessing you would be one of the first to complain in any cutbacks to any service that involves you directly.
Do these people ever give it a rest?
They just want easy money now.

hmmm, intersting study...unless you disagree of course...
A major new study of social-media sharing patterns shows that political polarization is more common among conservatives than liberals — and that the exaggerations and falsehoods emanating from right-wing media outlets such as Breitbart News have infected mainstream discourse.
Though the report, published by the Columbia Journalism Review, does an excellent job of laying out the challenge posed by Breitbart and its ilk, it is less than clear on how to counter it. Successfully standing up for truthful reporting in this environment “could usher in a new golden age for the Fourth Estate,” the authors write. But members of the public who care about such journalism are already flocking to news organizations like The New York Times, The Washington Post, and, locally, The Boston Globe, all of which have experienced a surge in paid subscriptions since the election of President Trump. That’s heartening, but there are no signs that it’s had any effect on the popularity or influence of the right-wing partisan media.
The CJR study, by scholars at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society, at Harvard Law School, and the MIT Center for Civic Media, examined more than 1.25 million articles between April 1, 2015, and Election Day. What they found was that Hillary Clinton supporters shared stories from across a relatively broad political spectrum, including center-right sources such as The Wall Street Journal, mainstream news organizations like the Times and the Post, and partisan liberal sites like The Huffington Post and The Daily Beast.
By contrast, Donald Trump supporters clustered around Breitbart — headed until recently by Stephen Bannon, the hard-right nationalist now ensconced in the White House — and a few like-minded websites such as The Daily Caller, Alex Jones' Infowars, and The Gateway Pundit. Even Fox News was dropped from the favored circle back when it was attacking Trump during the primaries, and only re-entered the fold once it had made its peace with the future president.
The authors of the study refer to their findings as “asymmetrical polarization,” and they point to some deleterious effects. The Breitbart-led sites were able to push the traditional media into focusing on Trump’s favored issue — immigration — and to frame it on their terms: overwrought fears about crime and terrorism. Clinton, on the other hand, was defined mainly by scandal coverage in the form of her use of a private email server, the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya, and the Clinton Foundation. The authors of the study, Yochai Benkler, Robert Faris and Hal Roberts of Berkman and Ethan Zuckerman of MIT, write:

Ms. Speer and Mr. Morris are seeking the freeze order until the Ontario Superior Court can rule on their request to recognize a 2015 Utah civil court default judgment ordering Mr. Khadr to pay them $134-million (U.S.) for his actions in Afghanistan.
