6. your guy could live up to his principles by voting NO on military appropriatons, NO on Lockheed $,

NO on getting f-35s in his home state of vermont. instead he votes YES on those things.

8. Really, you don't see the difference between voting for defense and voting for a

war of aggression against an "enemy" that didn't even attack us? No wonder we may lose the Presidency.

12. She's a slut lusting for racist Berniebros, surely.

also hellbound and complacent and keyboard-warring and easily duped, and...

In other words: she is a messenger with a big target on her back.

9. K/R

The firs reply to this thread is a red herring. Msongs brings up Bernie Sanders' record, yet Bernie's name is mentioned only in passing in the video. The video brings into question Mrs. Clinton's fitness to be president, yet not repudiating that she will probably be somewhat better than the Republican nominee.

That should make people who think in terms deeper than shallow campaign slogans very uncomfortable.

[Enthusiast]

14. Kicked and recommended!

15. How much longer

will these Right Attacks on HRC be allowed on DU?

[TIME TO PANIC]

16. Right Attacks?

As far as I know the right loves war.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

18. Oh sure, because she's the only TRUE liberal.

20. So, Hillary also had a role in pushing Bill to bomb Yugoslavia? I didn't know that... and Hillary is

boasting about it in her book. Unbelievable.

First time US bombing Europe since WWII. Unbelievable.
