Hillary Clinton: My Past Incorrect Assessments Do Not Reflect on My Assessment Abilities

[Cheese Sandwich]

Published on Sep 28, 2015
In the surreal world of Hillary Clinton, past incorrect judgements on war, gay marriage, and Keystone pipeline do not reflect on her assessment abilities. In an interview with Chuck Todd on Meet the Press, Hillary Clinton squirmed and equivocated on her now admitted 'mistakes' and tried to frame herself as learning from her past. Yet, in the here and now, Hillary Clinton continues to advocate for the same type of hawkish positions that led to the current disasters in the Middle East and runs away from her CURRENT record on the Transpacific Partnership.. In the light of these facts, Hillary Clinton's rationalizations fall flat and ring utterly hollow.

1. ...

[ancianita]

2. Right? What else have we got to go on?

[zeemike]

5. Our fear of the crazy in the GOP

And the (false) belief that only Hillary can win. Her actions don't matter when we are really afraid.
That is why so much attention is paid to Trump and Cruz...and why the DNC told us to watch the GOP debate.

[ancianita]

8. We KNOW that is all media hype. We stay focused. Not afraid. Right?

[zeemike]

11. Right.

[HooptieWagon]

3. IOW, count on her to get it wrong the first time.

And maybe eventually she'll 'evolve'. I think better presidential material is someone who gets it right the first time, even if it takes the population a little time to catch up.

[ancianita]

9. I truly do expect her to "evolve." But I won't trust her to follow through. But if she's the nominee

she's my girl.

4. "All previous statements are inoperative"

Extra credit if you know who said that. And in what circumstances.

The quote in the title is not exactly what was said, but it's the way it's come down to us. The original was: "This is the operative statement. The others are inoperative."

[zeemike]

7. Dick Cheney Donald Rumsfeld or W?

But it could be out of the Ministry of Truth in 1984

[SheilaT]

13. Nope. Keep trying.

Hint: it's a bit earlier than any of those you've named.

[zeemike]

15. Jo Stalin?...am I geting closer?

[SheilaT]

16. Not at all.

How old are you?

[zeemike]

18. Old enough to dance to Love me Tender.

Don't tease me any more...give it up.

22. Ron Ziegler I believe

White House Press Secretary for Nixon. One of many such quotes of his.

[whereisjustice]

6. She's a horrible Democratic candidate, a cynical fuck you by the corporate class to the working clas

[ancianita]

10. God I hate to hear this.

[whereisjustice]

14. I hate that the DNC is so cynical and holding us hostage "It's either Hillary ...

or the supreme court get's it". I wont negotiate with or vote for hostage takers.

They ran a right-wing, corporate conservative multi-millionaire ready to send a few million more jobs to Asia, ready to jack up health care and education costs, ready to cut taxes for the rich, ready to privatize and deregulate, while intervening militarily all over the world AND who just happens to enjoy a few of the social liberties that "the far left" busted our ass for while she was working as a Walmart director.

Fuck that.

[ancianita]

17. You're right. Fuck that.

[HooptieWagon]

12. Harsh, but accurate.

It is a continuation of 30 years of F-U to the working class by DLC/Third Way/ New Dems.

[MisterP]

19. having a memory is hypothalamic privilege!

[Helen Borg]

24. Perhaps hippocampal?

[Geronimoe]

20. As Bill Clinton used to say

I can feel your pain.

[passiveporcupine]

21. thanks for the intro to the sane progressive

I need to listen to her more!

[Scuba]

23. K&R

[Enthusiast]

25. Kicked and recommended!

[djean111]

26. Yeah, THIS is the person I want answering that phone at 3 am. NOT.

The president does not get do-overs. Peoples' lives are at stake.

27. Privatization of Mexico's Oil Industry-Hillary Clinton's role to disregard the public interest and

and well being of its citizens. Several revolutions in the history of Mexico resulted in the nationalization of the oil industry which was one of the goals and in the best interest of the working class citizens.
