How long until the Hillary haters on DU start talking about "Benghazi!!!!" [View all]

"B-Day" might not be that far off, because the other material they are pushing is pretty thin.

For example, the awful things about Hillary that I learned today, right here on DU, were:
--Some people who donated to the Clinton Foundation had bank accounts at HSBC (the second biggest bank in the world).
--She's considering Brooklyn Heights for campaign headquarters (a neighborhood in NYC)

This is obviously horrible, because HSBC is under investigation for tax evasion, which means that anyone who cashes an HSBC check is a criminal, and Brooklyn Heights is the closest neighborhood in Brooklyn to Wall Street, just a short yacht ride across the East River. Shudder. Oh, and it's also where the fictional Cosby Show family lived.

At this rate, the full FOX News Benghazi/Whitewater/Murder/Whatever treatment can't be that far off. Unless it's already arrived.

Yes. I, for one. And so did a lot of people in the Democratic party. DanTex Feb 2015 #63

I clearly don't think those things, however. Spider Jerusalem Feb 2015 #64
