What if conservatives had to choose between Hilary Clinton or Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi?

Who would you choose if you were being held at gun point and had to vote between Hilary Clinton or the Iraqi Islamic State dictator al-Baghadi?

The bullet? Door number three, Monty? Use my self-defense skills to disarm the thug?

Send up the Bat signal so Batman can save me from this false dilemma couched as a thought experiment?

Nah, I'll just chose to respond with as silly a set of answers as the question deserves and let it go at that? :coffeepap:

What if the posters that start such threads, took a moment to realize how pointless their threads are before posting them... and stopped doing so? Would DP survive?
 
Just when you think you have seen it all........ this thread? :doh

Do you hear a flushing sound in the distance?
 
:doh
silly thread. Just plain silly.

It is silly. Nobody should think anything else or actually make a choice. It's also silly to keep bring up Hilary this long after the election. No matter how anyone feels about her, she's no longer relevant. Baghadi has some good prospects for puns on his name though.

Agreed. Hillary is a non-entity now.

and when I was a kid I would invoke the other guys name every time I went to the toy store.

" Put it in the BAG...DADDY ".
(have's that for the first pun)

Oooh, I love false dichotomies!

You know what most people don't understand about being held at gunpoint?

You can always choose to let them shoot you.

If I were actually forced to choose, I would choose Hillary Clinton. I would choose Donald Trump. I would choose any Democrat or any Republican over any ISIL leader.

But that's not the same as saying that I would choose them over publicly refusing to legitimize the election.

It's a serious question, what if the world did hypothetically become like that? Where people (unknowingly) elect dictators who just suit their agenda and care not for democracy/freedom of speech when it does not suit them...

Why would a Wahhabist Theocrat run in a presidential election? Stupid thread is stupid.

That could never happen. Apart from in Turkey, Iran, Russia, Hungary, Pakistan, Philippines, Egypt, the USA.

Oh, I see what you did there. :naughty
