(9,148 posts)Why would I be denying anything about Hillary?
I am NOT defending Hillary Clinton.
Just POINTING out the many Dems who voted no on Sanders amendment to protect consumers.
Some of the Dems on the vote NO list surprised me. I thought a few MORE of them would have voted with Sanders.
Since GMO was the topic of the OP.
What's your point of the hostility?
I would have liked a link in the OP to read more as to the date of the quote, but in googling this Sanders amendment, I find out that many Dems who I normally support, voted NO. It was disappointing. I thought many of them would never side with Monsanto over consumers.
As to your reference to Warren supporting GMO labelling, that is great that she has thus changed her mind from the vote on Sanders amendment.
HOWEVER, I wasn't singling out E Warren was I?
Nor Defending Hillary Clinton.
I was pointing out the list of Dems who, to much disappointment, voted against Sanders fair & necessary amendmentto stand up for consumer rights.
That's my point.
I have no idea what your reply to my post was about.
Glad I could make it clear where I stand & the intention of listing the many Dems who favor Monsanto's call for Federal labelling rights over States GMO labelling.
That was in 2013, tho, so hopefully by now some more of those Dems have changed their minds on this subject.
A peaceful 2015 to you rhett o rick. Nice to know you & I'm certain we will be crossing paths again on DU.
