All of this fucking drama over the fucking emails, and it comes out today in the hearings that only three of the fucking emails were classified? And not even marked properly?
It's hard for me to form an opinion about it because I know squat about how the State Department works and how information is handled. It's not like they didn't use secure government communications at all, just that some stuff went through a private system. I suspect this may be a case of the State Department having to take some shortcuts because doing everything by the book would make their job almost impossible, but I don't really know. Comey has a good rep through, so I'm inclined to think his conclusions are reasonable.
I think he'll start to bring Republicans home.
I think the closer we get, the more Republicans are appalled by him. They might not vote at all and just stay home, but I don't think they'll vote for him. I believe Clinton's got this. It won't be a landslide (although, Jesus, it SHOULD be), but she'll win.
Sue, thanks so much for that link!
Rebecca, that's scary.
there's been shooting at the Dallas protest tonight in downtown
Right after I went to bed. It is not a good thing to wake up to, but likely would have wrecked my sleep if I knew. I'm just nauseous about the future.

This I believe. I have to believe the stark raving mad are a minority.
What a horrible situation in Dallas. I'm worried about this being blamed on protesters and the President.
The dentist can see me at 10:00. Yay! With a little luck, we'll be on the road by 11:00! (Cross your fingers that he just needs to trim the temporary crown to fix my bite.)
Unrelatedly, it feels like the entire world is ready to go up in smoke.
Giving the country the stinkeye this morning.
I really can't even comprehend anything, but I still think the solution is not "more guns".
Steph, I was looking for something else and found 2 doctors listed as "non-surgical spine"- Maybe that is what your silly friend needs? Anyway, it made me laugh.
I went to bed last night when the first reports of shots were coming in, and I never thought I'd wake up to this. Jesus.
More and more I see echoes of the late '60s, with racial violence, political chaos, and even a youth subculture that the mainstream seems obsessed with (Millenials vs. Hippies). Fortunately there's no draft.
