Hillary consorting with felons...


I still think it's way too early, but since it is probably a large collection and will take a while, can we go through the "Here's a picture of Hillary Clinton standing next to someone awful" and therefore her heartfelt and personal endorsement of everything said awful person has ever done?

I'll lead with Martha Stewart:



Okay, that one's out of the way.

Putin:



We'll also need the official repository of "Hillary Clinton pointing to someone she recognizes in a crowd and giving an excited smile" pictures.

She LIVED there and thought it was the hometown of John Wayne, instead of John Wayne Gacy, and made a point of mentioning that she was from the same town.

74. Jim Jones had significant political influence in the Bay Area
Fri Jun 12, 2015, 05:58 PM

Before the whole Guyana thing, it was just a growing and inclusive church that did a lot of good stuff and made people happy.


At the age of 18, Gacy became involved in politics, working as an assistant precinct captain for a Democratic Party candidate in his neighborhood. This decision earned more criticism from his father, who accused his son of being a "patsy". Gacy himself later speculated the decision may have been an attempt to seek the acceptance from others that he never received from his father.

The same year Gacy became a Democratic Party candidate, his father bought him a car, with the title of the vehicle being in his father's name until Gacy had completed the monthly repayments to his father.


He was a Democrat, and an Iowan. How many Iowa Democrats don't have their picture with a national political figure?

But you also have to remember, when there are these $2000 "dinner with the candidate" fundraisers, or whatever they go for now, everyone gets their picture taken in a receiving line format. The guy that runs a Chinese restaurant near me loves those things. He's got a wall of pictures of him next to dang near everyone who has run for president for the last few elections.

But I can't take you seriously unless you do that.

So there.

Why yes, according to my calculations, posting a thread commenting on the tired "let's find a picture of X next to Y" political trope will obtain an advantage of 3 Iowa Caucus districts.

Aside from which, I get $5 from a shady arms dealer in Malta each time.

Lighten up. Here's a smooch for you:

I was going to do both candidates, but it is so hard to find a picture of Bernie Sanders with anyone.

I mean, unless you count ordinary people, voters... riff-raff like that.



I'm sure that fellow in front is guilty of something.

But I'll settle for your pick of "Hillary excitedly recognizing person in crowd" shots.
