73. Hillary Is Worse Than Bush

Sun Feb 22, 2015, 06:14 PM

Feb 2015

Because she will pursue the exact same policies but no one here will oppose it because she did it rather than Bush. The Hillbots should just vote for Bush. That way at least we can start organizing some opposition because we will be aware that we are screwed instead of following the same path blindly. Hillary is all NSA, Wall St, Keystone Pipeline, War Machine and Mass Incarceration. This so called editorial is extremely weak and pointless and just another cheerleading obfuscation and misdirection from a supporter of war and oppression.

Maybe they meant you disrupt FReepers. Jackpine Radical Feb 2015 #51

No ignorance at all. Nader got 97,488 in Florida. Nader is why Gore lost. MohRokTah Feb 2015 #99
