How long the Dems keep Khizr Khan front and center before they realize it is going to backfire.

The more interesting question is how long The Donald will keep him front and center by responding to him.

It was a trap and the moron just walked right into it. Khan doesn't seem about to quit.

For all the problems with normal politicians and their glib talk, this situation illustrates the problems with the other political trope: straight-talking, political-correctness-be-damned, giving-it-to-you-straight non-politician outsider. Any two-bit pol would have known not to hit back at Khan, to give him a wide berth until he disappeared from the news after a couple of days. But not the Short-Fingered Vulgarian.  

Thanks, good to see you as well. How are things with you?

If you are going to vote for the vulgarian, you should get comfortable with yourself for doing so. Don't be so shy about admitting in public that you will vote for him. It's OK.

If I were voting for him, trust me I would admit I am, happily. Unlike you who is being shy about why you and the Admin suddenly logged on after a long gap.

Don't know what conspiracy theory you have going on for my logging in suddenly here after a long gap. I am sure it will be mildly amusing to hear it, if you felt like sharing it.

I have already asked the reason why the Admin logged in. The Admin ID was already logged in even before I asked my question and sure enough, you fixed the new accounts issue. Yeah yeah, I know you separate church and state. 


As to who I am voting for - I already answered that to Il Professore -  if the choice between the two major parties is the current choice. I am sure with your Google skills you can find it.

This article shows some of the possible things the vulgarian could have said in response to Khan's DNC speech... instead he took the bait. 

The possible lines of response are from Reihan Salam, conservative contributor to the National Review.

Actually I logged in as admin because when I logged in to this ID I saw a private message requesting an admin action.

He accepted a Purple Heart from a soldier just because he was offered one. Ugh.. Despicable judgment. And Khan's educating him on how tasteless that is.

And how does Clinton poll with the active serving Armed Forces?

Has Khan also explained why he needed to bring down his website?

Looks like the Paki is smelling roses and perhaps planning for a political game. was he the ONLY muslim to die in service ? What about the others? the more they play, the more likely the Paki will slip (Trump slips all the time but escapes falling) and hurt Hillary badly. He is pushing the Quron a bit too far.

One of the reasons the media finds the Trump vs. Khan controversy interesting is this. Trump has zero self-awareness, and Khan is higher on self-awareness than the average person. In this CNN video you can see Khan getting angry and then catching himself -- and apologizing for it before moving on in a more composed manner. In his interviews you can see him visibly trying to restrain his own emotions. On the other hand you have Trump who brags about his humility, unselfconsciously says that he has made many sacrifices for the country, and routinely demonstrates the emotional restraint of a child. That contrast is compelling.

Self-aware..restrained..blah blah blah...he's a Muslim. And Muslims are either terrorists or abettors. The US should keep them out. Period.

what i don't understand is this. why is the media/khan only asking about sacrifices by trump? what about his opponent/opponent's spouse? did they do any sacrifices? did they serve in the army?
is taking millions of speaking fee from wall st, a sacrifice? or deals with wall street firms to invest in the son-in-law's hedge fund, a sacrifice?

Because Trump is the one who doesn't have the sense to recognize that whatever sacrifices he made don't match up to what the Khans have gone through. If Clinton was asked this question, you will see the answer that any career politician is supposed to give in such circumstances. No further controversy.
