Bored this morning?
If I were truly bored I'd have changed the title author and blurb on the poster, too, but I don't have my DIN Mittelschrift package here anymore.

DIN Mittelschrift Alt or Neu?
You have all lost me. I did not go to the same high school as Mr. Casotto
Google would help and make you as smart as if you had gone to the top high school.

What does NATO stand for?
And what's a Treaty?
And if one party doesn't satisfy their obligations under a Treaty?
There you go.
The spending targets aren't part of the treaty. Collective defense of all members if one member is attacked is. Acting as Trump suggests would violate our obligations under the treaty.
As you say, "There you go."
Wonderful. Then I suppose we can summarily stop our military spend in support of the NATO Treaty as well. There you go.

You might want to document our NATO spend. Because unless you believe that leaving NATO means that we would cut a couple of heavy divisions from the Army, I really don't think we would end up spending much less.

Were we to do so, the other member states would remain treaty obligated to come to our defense. It's a defense treaty, not a spending one.
When someone asks if the US will honor its obligations, the correct answer is "yes," not "maybe."

And how do they do that when so many have not lived up to their obligations under Article 3. Without the spending there is no defense.
The Secretary General has voiced his worries and in the past so have Bernie and Bill Gates.
This thread is about Hillary, not NATO, take it somewhere else.
Here's an example of how the press is relentless in their pursuit of unjustified criticism of Hillary. It's trivial, but it ain't. It's because of stuff like this that the prevailing wisdom about Hillary is that she's a liar.
Gail Collins recently wrote an op-ed about Hillary in which she recounted the story about Hillary saying she was a childhood fan of the Yankees, even though she grew up outside Chicago. Collins's (false) "context" was that when Hillary said this, she was lying to curry favor with NY voters in the run-up to her first Senate bid.
Many people are aware of the Yankees story. Especially in the press, where it gets brought up regularly as an example of her "problem" with the truth. Need I say that Collins's column appears on the most powerful piece of political real estate on the planet?
Problem is, all available evidence shows that Hillary's story is true. Hillary said she was a Yankees fan back in 1994.

The Intel IG called her a liar and the Director of the FBI called her a liar over, and over, and over again.
The laws of fandom bend for no one. Whether the allegiance dates to 1994 or 1954, anyone who chooses to root for the Yankees exhibits a moral, if venial, defect. I took that, not the timing, to be Gail Collins's point.
Speaking of fandom.

How hapless and low in the standings do my Yanks have to get before we show them some kindness?

really? and why did people think that well before the email fiasco?
eta: sigh, I'm going to be sorry for this.
And what proof did Comey offer up about Hillary's lying, lying ways?
Because she was dead broke when she left the White House with her immigrant grandparents and Sir Edmund Hillary in a Chinook helicopter under heavy sniper fire after being turned down by the Marines and blaming it all on a video.
An "independent fact-checking website".
Robert Mann -
Political life[edit]
An active Democrat,[5] Mann joined the staff of U.S. Senator Russell B. Long of Louisiana late in Long's lengthy tenure in office. He continued as press secretary (and later as state director) under Long's successor, John Breaux, another Democrat. In 1990, he was press secretary for the final reelection of U.S. Senator J. Bennett Johnston, Jr., who defeated the former Ku Klux Klansman David Duke, then a member of the Louisiana House of Representatives. In 2003, Mann was communications director for Kathleen Babineaux Blanco, the Lafayette Democrat and lieutenant governor who defeated Republican Bobby Jindal for governor of Louisiana but bowed out after one term, only to be succeeded in 2008 by Jindal.[3]
Mann continued to work in the Blanco administration until 2006, when he joined LSU, from which forum he writes and speaks extensively on political topics. He is highly critical of the Jindal administration, having in 2013 criticized the governor's position on health care and education. He also scolds Louisiana's Republican U.S. Senator David Vitter.[8]

Can you say Horace Clarke?
My hunch has been that you and, say, hankzona were more or less born into your condition. That's a little different.

You have a droll sense of humor, ignoring the fact that the FBI had just finished a year long investigation of Hillary.
You should be sorry, coming up with such a ridiculous response. How can anyone take you seriously when you post such drivel when you can't come up with an answer.

Here's a fun chart.
I don't think there is anyone posting here who denies Trump is a world class liar.
Is this chart meant to absolve Hillary from lying for more than a year about her e-mails and all the baggage that goes with that, and do you also want to know what proof Comey came up with?
http://www.politico.com/blogs/james-comey-testimony/2016/07/clinton-untrue-statements-fbi-comey-225216
The fact of the matter is they all lie both overtly and by misleading both on purpose and by normal circumstances that turn out to be lying after the fact due to compromise.
It's part of the political process. The important thing is what gets done, not what gets said

I sort of like my politicians to tell me the truth. We can deal from there
unlike you, I don't believe Comey brought us some sacred writ from a holy mountain. His press conference was a horribly poor decision. Unprecedented, in fact. He was allowed to present his own personal opinion as if it were fact and without cross examination.
Anyway, tell me the major lie that you think Comey caught her in.
