(17,072 posts)but I also like Hillary Clinton, and I know that either one of them would be 100 times better than any ReTrumplican.
We need to stop this stuff. Right now, FDR would be considered too Conservative from some on DU, and that's a damn shame. It's also what the right depends on. Divide and conquer. Drum up outrage within the left about Hillary's vote for the Iraq War (BTW - that is mischaracterized. It was a vote authorizing the President to use force, NOT a declaration of War)
Anyway, while the left is distracted by this "outrage", we'll come in and pick the pockets of the Middle Class and poor once again.
Please answer me this, or answer yourself this question; "do you really believe that if Hillary Clinton, or John Kerry were President at the time instead of "Dubya", they would have fucked up the Iraq issue like Dubya, or would they have been more rational and cautious?"
I guarantee you one thing...neither of them would have been getting advice from Dick Cheney!
Just do us old farts a favor. Support and work for Bernie if you like. Support and work for Hillary in you like. But, when a nominee is selected, work to defeat the "real" enemy to our country...the T-bagging ReTrumplicans!
