Hillary really is the most complete and competent candidate. Not just sound bites, she goes deep

[Jitter65]

into problems, causes, consequences, and solutions. Cherry-picking her comments for sound bites that satisfy unjustified allegations really hurts us all, not just Hillary.

1. Ignoring all her faults also really hurts us nt

[roguevalley]

41. she lays out her faults and then we're supposed to ignore them?

a man who had been in prison unjustly for 39 years, part of the time on death row asked her about her fetish about the death penalty using himself as an example of how it sucks and should die. She said essentially tough luck. She didn't tell them that she takes money from prisons, has prison lobbyists on her campaign team and she could care less about him over all. You ask us not to 'cherry pick' her shit? OMG. It would appear talking about any of her many and manifest problems, lies, distortions and dishonest actions/words/deeds is somehow hurting us all?

Wow.

[shadowandblossom]

68. Did you actually see the video you're talking about? It sure doesn't seem like it. Here it is.

-First off, if her beliefs regarding the death penalty were put into law (and I don't see that as likely) it would barely ever happen. It would happen much less than it does now. The numbers of people executed would go way down. As she explained again tonight she doesn't believe in it in the state system (police stuff), she does support in some heinous cases in the federal system (the fbi stuff), for example the Oklahoma City bombing that killed over 150 people including preschool children.

I also want to point out, respectfully, that he was tried in the state system (police stuff,) not the the federal system (fbi stuff) and not for conditions like those she described.


-Second of all, if her beliefs became law way, way, way, way less people would be executed.

Now you said she essentially said "tough luck." Well, here's how she said that.

"...but what happened to you was a travesty. And I just, can't even imagine what you went through, and how terrible all those days and nights must have been for all those years, and I know that all of us are... so regretful that you or any person has to go through what you did. And I hope that now that you are standing here before us... you will have whatever path in life you choose going forward and that you will get the support that you deserve to have."

79. WAKE UP!

HRC is smart and competent. That's true. She's is however the worst possible choice for the Nation because she is a war-mongering corporate globalist. The people who like her are either uninformed or agree that our nation stands for regime change manipulation requiring, initiating and sustaining massive bloodshed and ruination of superstructure.If you like her because she has recently gone to the left, you are unfortunately deluded. Nothing she states that is left of center is more than a ploy. If she wins, you will see what you have empowered and you will be sorry.

[cherokeeprogressive]

2. Panderlicious!

"really hurts us all"

Srsly?

[beam me up scottie]

3. Why do you hate America?

[Vattel]

17. Why are you a hypocrite?

Admit it BMUS, right now you are NOT wearing a flag pin. So don't pretend that you don't hate America too.

[beam me up scottie]

20. You don't know me!!!

I am also not telling anyone whether or not I have a Russian flag hanging in my garage!

[Vattel]

26. If you are the typical Bernie supporter, the question is whether

you have a Russian flag hanging in your MOM'S garage. You think I don't know you, but I am pretty sure that right now you are wearing your footie pajamas, sans flag pin of course, and after another half hour or so of online bullying and spamming EW's facebook page, your mom will tell you to turn off the lights.

AMIRITE?

[beam me up scottie]

28. You forgot keeping files on all of my enemies!

And lying about my gender, everyone knows women don't support Bernie, we're all angry lying bros just PRETENDING to be wimmenz!

And who knows, maybe we're not even hooman...

[iwillalwayswonderwhy]

31. Why are you keeping flies on your enemies?

Oh wait, better clean my glasses.

[beam me up scottie]

32. Wouldn't you like to know?

[iwillalwayswonderwhy]

34. No flies on me.

[shadowandblossom]

69. Kitties!!!

Oh, the first one is so cuuuute.

[bobGandolf]

64. Are you a Trumpy? You insults fit the description. n/t

[Vattel]

66. It was a joke. BMUS is one of my favorite DUers.

[beam me up scottie]

81. Vattel is my friend!

And good sarcasm is almost indistinguishable from reality.

[NurseJackie]

4. She's truly brilliant! I love her!

[nichomachus]

8. But apparently

Not smart enough to keep her foot out of her mouth.

[revbones]

14. A truly truly briliant liar she is... Yes. nt

[Loudestlib]

30. Her vote on Iraq was certainly brilliant.

[earthshine]

44. Bernie supporters have serious issues.

But, Hillary supporters do it for love.

[Logical]

57. Lol, ok. Nt

[peggysue2]

61. Yes!

Which is why she'll make an excellent President.

[uponit7771]

65. +1

[Baobab]

5. Why she was so nice to the Columbians to overlook their

death squads

[NCTraveler]

6. K&R nt

[casperthegm]

7. How about she got us in deep?

Causes and consequences? You mean like voting for Iraq and the consequence of trillions in debt, thousands of lives lost, a region destabilized (as Sanders cautioned), and now the rise of ISIS?

Please let me know if that counts as unjust to poor HRC. I'd list more but I have to run. I suspect others will be happy to provide a more complete list of "allegations."

[krawhitham]

9. Yeah, she's great. If you could trust her

[Shadowflash]

10. Maybe she can dodge all the 'unjustified allegations'

as well as she does sniper fire?

We'll have to see.

[bvf]

11. Wish I could rec this

but you're about 18 days early.

[beam me up scottie]

18. !

[elehhhhna]

12. Problem? She'll look into it, study it, or tell them to cut it out

Bullshit YOU can believe in

[Lucinda]

13. TY ~ KNR

[earthside]

15. You can say the same thing about Sen. Sanders, of course.

However, go try and get the Repuglicans to play nice.

Politics ain't beanbag.

If Hillary or Bernie can't take the heat now, then the general election campaign will be a massacre.

[roguevalley]

42. bernie can and has. Against the entire party and media

she can't so she's cracking up and making gaffes.

[shadowandblossom]

73. So they tell me and yet I have eyes and ears

which disprove that over, and over, and over and so on to infinity... and the media has been very gentle on him. When will they start vetting him?

[Waiting For Everyman]

16. So competent, she screws up email.

So competent, she can't even go to a funeral without creating a major fail.

Hillary hurts us all, not just Hillary.

This OP is the joke of the year.

[winter is coming]

19. Her thoughtful analysis of Nancy Reagan's contribution to the AIDS crisis is unforgettable.

Also, unforgivable.

[Avalux]

21. Yes, she's so complete and competent she vote for the Iraq war!!

I could list many other example, but this one perfectly illustrates her ability to go deep and really look at the causes and consequences.

[shadowandblossom]

71. And if you are interested in the context of that vote

which the majority of Senators made, you can learn about it here. I thought this article was interesting. (On another note Senator and Secretary of State Clinton voting along with the vast majority of other senators to authorize the ability to use force as a means for leverage in what became the Iraq war is not a replacement for foreign policy from Senator Sanders.)

http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/war_stories/2016/02/hillary_clinton_told_the_truth_about_her_iraq_war_vote.html

[Avalux]

80. I am well-versed regarding the context of the IWR vote thank you. n/t

[senseandsensibility]

22. Comedy gold.

Really.

[Scootaloo]

23. She's the greatest! The greatest! The people love her! everyone else is a LOSER. The BEST!

[kath]

35. this OP is probably the winner of the Hilarious Hillarian of the Day Award!

Woot!

[Karma13612]

24. LOLOLOL. AHAHAHAHAH. LOLOLOLOL AHAHAHAHAH. eom

[berningman]

25. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Thanks for the laugh

[Kalidurga]

27. Yeah sound bites that's the problem and not tainted Factor 8 plasma.

[Betty Karlson]

48. Did you spot yesterday's swift alert-an-hide stalking of my posts about the subject?

I think the truth is hitting one of those nerves that Clinton has. She has got a lot of nerve.

[Kalidurga]

56. Nope

I spotted mine though thanks to people letting me know. Not one person has come out to debunk what I am saying. That tells me something right there.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

29. Hillary Clinton is the kindest, bravest,

warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known.

[roguevalley]

43. do you know her? I have to ask around here. Do you know

this from knowing her?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

58. I guess you've never seen "The Manchurian Candidate."

[roguevalley]

63. nope. thanks : D

They buried this film for about fifty years.

[earthshine]

45. You forgot to say the "most well coached."

She needs those big-money campaign contributions. Those political consultants are very expensive. They fine tune all of her mannerisms and words so as to appeal to leftists, liberals, and progressives.

I don't believe a word of her populist pandering. She will take a hard right in the general election, in turn further right if she makes it to the White House.

[Betty Karlson]

49. Praise Nancy!

[Miles Archer]

33. That's very, very, very special.

[bigwillq]

36. I think she's a mess as a candidate.

So many inconsistencies. Too much flip flopping. Too many misspeaks.

[marew]

37. She continues to put her foot in her mouth so often that-

Pretty soon she'll have to have it surgically removed!

[Zira]

53. I think those are intentional "misspeakes"

[Impedimentus]

38. "...Not just sound bites, she goes deep ..." into the mud.

Once you step in it it's impossible to get your shoes clean again.

[bvf]

39. Well, this is going pretty well, don't you think? n/t

[Its Got Electrolytes]

40. prefix the "in"

and you'd be right.

[Avalon Sparks]

46. The only thing deep about Hillary....

Is her pockets, in order to accept millions of dollars from mega money donors buying influence.

[Betty Karlson]

47. Candidates who confuse silent activism and silent acquiessence in "letting queers die off"

are not qualified.

I'm sure her vote for the Iraq War was more than a sound bite, but that doesn't make the 'mistake' any smaller. This is where she failed her leadewrship test.

She was late to support gay rights. Too late even, and given recent events, I think she still is a homophobe who would rather stab my back than have my back.

She keeps shifting on TPP.

She promoted fracking: that's competent, maybe, but still utterly wrong.

Solutions? Just more of the status quo, But the status quo ius untenable. Her platform is based on the unrealistic hope that things can mostly stay as they are. She is stuck in the 20th century.

We need a leader with tomorrow's solutions for today's problems. We need BERNIE SANDERS.

[eridani]

50. Only if you like American empire and endless war n/t

[bobGandolf]

51. I believe Hillary is the most qualified, and ready, to

step in and start working. She'll hit the ground running if elected.
SO, why do I have a worry knot in my stomach every time I think of her as the Dem nominee?

[djean111]

54. Because she will immediately start trying to implement Third Way economic policies and neo-con wars?

Having a Third Way hawk in that office is frightening to me.

[Cobalt Violet]

52. yeah, if you are a corporation or a bank.

otherwise she is not competent. She can't even read the electorate. She needed Bernie to open her eyes.

[hobbit709]

55. Most complete and competent candidate of the 1% for sure.

for the rest of us, not so much.

[CBGLuthier]

59. Thanks. I needed a good laugh. i was down and then you said this incredibly funny thing

About a candidate who thinks the Reagans were great for gay folk and that her husband didn't do his part in destroying the middle class.

Thanks.

[pdsimdars]

62. Oh please!

[pdsimdars]

67. Let's hope that indictment comes soon. . . .

[shadowandblossom]

70. just a RW fantasy :)

I guess it's good to have dream though.

[Waiting For Everyman]

72. She appears competent, but in reality is the opposite.

She screwed up email. Most of us can do that.

She screwed up a funeral. Most of us can do that.

She screws up giving comments. Most of us can do that.

Add to that, super corrupt... in a surprising number of different ways.

Oh, her so-called intelligence? It's the kind that memorizes homework well. But I'll bet she never had an original idea in her whole lifetime.

I am super not-impressed.

I call that an EPIC FAIL! Grade: "F"

[shadowandblossom]

74. Well if a brilliant keyboard warrior such as yourself has declared it so, it must be so.

&feature=youtu.be

[Waiting For Everyman]

78. It's not what I've declared, it's what the news has reported.

It also isn't about my brilliance, it's about her lack of it.

Unless you can disprove any point, but maybe your forte is just awesome flashy graphiics.

[actslikeacarrot]

75. I think Clinton is a pretty cool...

...candidate. Eh kills aleins and dosent afraid of anything!

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/pretty-cool-guy

[ladjf]

76. I have read and disagree with your opinion that "Hillary really is the most complete and competen

candidate" because I think Bernie is not just about sound bites, he goes deep.

Your post = 0
My post = 0
Our sum = 0

[islandmkl]

77. i prefer her more simple solutions...they are so succinct...and not only address the issues...

but offer solid solutions...with serious results...

you know, like in 2007 when she told Wall Street to 'cut it out':

In October’s debate she had described herself as going to Wall Street and saying, “Cut it out! Quit foreclosing on homes! Quit engaging in these kinds of speculative behaviors.”

...the only thing they cut out was the heart of the economy...

http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/11/hillary-clinton-told-wall-street-to-cut-it-out-not-so-much-the-record-shows-213363#ixzz43Ll42Hr4

[Skwmom]

82. Her track record is atrocious on domestic and foreign policy. n/t
