3. Lol, I've loved how the goalposts have changed on her OP

Wed Feb 17, 2016, 11:09 PM

Feb 2016

She's edited herself numerous times to make sure nothing is good enough and everything anyone puts up doesn't fit

She's trolling like mad and I'm sad anyone takes her bait - she wants Bernie Sanders supporters heads.

Great counter thread

Highlight:

Can I have a list of Hillary's Pro POC legislation? [View all] JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 OP

You won't find any. She only passed 3 bills in her Senate career. And they all named things. w4rma Feb 2016 #1

That is alright. Proposed legislation will do as well. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #2

Not true. But remember, Clinton wasn't in Congress for 25 years. George II Feb 2016 #51

8 years in the senate is a long time to have no legislation proposed... Bubzer Feb 2016 #66

True, but she did propose legislation in that time. Sorry to disappoint. George II Feb 2016 #84

Which post office are you referring to? n/t JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #86

Your OP was about Hillary, not Bernie. George II Feb 2016 #92

Not dispointed. I believe in credit where it's due. Does she have anything outside of gun control? Bubzer Feb 2016 #96

I believe the discussion was about: George II Feb 2016 #183

Right. My question hasn't deviated from that topic. Does she have anything outside of gun control? Bubzer Feb 2016 #185

Wow. That is beyond pathetic for a former first lady, an 8 year Senator and the most famous woman JimDandy Feb 2016 #83

--- but she did write a good book. I think the title is "Village of the Damned." Hoppy Feb 2016 #118

"It Takes a Damned Village" Fumesucker Feb 2016 #172

No, it's Bomb the Damn Villages. nt valerief Feb 2016 #202

Lol, I've loved how the goalposts have changed on her OP Arazi Feb 2016 #3

Please stay on topic. This is about HILLARY. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #4

Let me kick and rec your fine post then good sir Arazi Feb 2016 #7

Brilliant! bravenak Feb 2016 #11

Reminds me of a joke my father used to tell. George II Feb 2016 #55

Mine too bravenak Feb 2016 #56

Lol 2pooped2pop Feb 2016 #12

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. George II Feb 2016 #54

Then Hillary thinks VERY highly of Bernie. Bubzer Feb 2016 #70

I have her on ignore, so I don't have to waste my time on nonsense. Fuddnik Feb 2016 #42

Who? Flying Squirrel Feb 2016 #80

LOL! You stole my Question! 2banon Feb 2016 #173

The goalposts are all over the place at this point.. But this is all about Clinton's commitment. eom Betty Karlson Feb 2016 #153

Well, I don't care for calling another poster out, morningfog Feb 2016 #5

I am not calling out another poster. I am crediting another poster for bringing up a good question. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #6

I appreciate your post, since I asked her this and she wouldn't answer except to tell me to JudyM Feb 2016 #28

You are very welcome. As expected, however, this OP is content-free. n/t JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #33

Maybe something will turn up. If not, just follow protocol and repost it in a couple of days. JudyM Feb 2016 #37

I think.. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #39

Aw, c'mon, let's bring all of DU down to that schoolyard level. JudyM Feb 2016 #45

This message was self-deleted by its author LanternWaste Feb 2016 #184

You mean she hasn't criticized Obama recently. Recently is the important word there. nt Live and Learn Feb 2016 #17

Point well taken. She was vicious in 2008. morningfog Feb 2016 #19

In 2008, it was low down. She has criticized him often since then, merrily Feb 2016 #53

Heck, she was viscious in 2014. Fawke Em Feb 2016 #186

bravenak invited the creation of this OP tk2kewl Feb 2016 #36

her? Oh yeah. Have had her on ignore for a long time now. liberal_at_heart Feb 2016 #151

i'm getting used to her tk2kewl Feb 2016 #157

Except she has criticized Obama. Especially on foreign policy. jeff47 Feb 2016 #187

Yo! bravenak Feb 2016 #8

Yo! JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #10

Oh guaranteed there's no response. The OP was flamebait anyway Arazi Feb 2016 #14

That would be amazing! JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #15

How? Quayblue Feb 2016 #88

I was being sincere Quayblue Feb 2016 #112

Are you talking about here or on another op? bravenak Feb 2016 #116

here Quayblue Feb 2016 #132

I'm sure this op is not quite serious bravenak Feb 2016 #136

You are quite correct. But this thread was almost begging to be made. n/t JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #138

I understand perfectly.nt bravenak Feb 2016 #142

But can you answer the question? If not I assume she must have done NOTHING /nt Dragonfli Feb 2016 #162

I'm not being told how she is the best for blacks day after day bravenak Feb 2016 #164

I am being told that day after day and and left wondering why. Those are good pieces of legislation Dragonfli Feb 2016 #166

You have it wrong bravenak Feb 2016 #171

Then you should hold Hillary to the same standard Dragonfli Feb 2016 #178

next time Quayblue Feb 2016 #148

:-) And don't get me wrong...I was completely open to hearing about any such legislation JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #150

ha! Quayblue Feb 2016 #155

oh Quayblue Feb 2016 #139

But did she end racism? leftupnorth Feb 2016 #9

NOT GOOD ENOUGH HILLARY 2pooped2pop Feb 2016 #13

No, but she's formed "relationships" and "friendships," see? SMC22307 Feb 2016 #108

She will continue expansion of the private prison system and War On Drugs gyroscope Feb 2016 #16

I heard a Republican congressman promoting prison call center jobs as a way to keep jobs in the USA virtualobserver Feb 2016 #63

Didn't you know it's okay to have your vote taken for granted by Hillary, if you're her firewall JimDandy Feb 2016 #97

Kickin'. No answers yet. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #18

She voted against the Bush Tax cuts in 2001 and voted to repeal them in 2007 brooklynite Feb 2016 #21

not specifically for POC eom noiretextatique Feb 2016 #25

Thank you, but as already observed, this does not apply. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #29

Votes don't count according to Bravenak's rules. It has to be legislation she proposed that passed. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #31

I understand from Hillary supporters... MellowDem Feb 2016 #69

The defining issue is gun violence. Hillary's record is good, Bernie's is bad. ucrdem Feb 2016 #22

Nope, not good enough! Unless it's specificly for POC, it doesn't count Arazi Feb 2016 #24

Yep. Gun violence applies to ALL people. This is about PoC. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #26

defining issues for who? noiretextatique Feb 2016 #30

For voters. It defines the candidates' position vis-a-vis POC communities. ucrdem Feb 2016 #34

Excuse me, this OP is about Hillary, not Bernie. Please try to stay on topic. n/t JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #40

The Gun Control Movement has it's origin in racism. Odin2005 Feb 2016 #52

Wrong on all counts. It's not the defnining issue and the NRA rates Bernie D- to F. merrily Feb 2016 #57

In this context, it is. And this is where the battle will be fought and won. nt ucrdem Feb 2016 #73

Hillary would like it to be the defining issue, but it is not. Sorry! merrily Feb 2016 #131

Co-sponsored legislation doesn't count. You can sign on to legislation at the last second. JimDandy Feb 2016 #106

Well, that IWR vote created a lot of jobs, albeit dead end ones. Live and Learn Feb 2016 #23

here's my list noiretextatique Feb 2016 #27

what I came up with too. Go Vols Feb 2016 #32

Obviously you know who I am on the jury. Aerows Feb 2016 #35

Lol, knew bravenak's loyal band would alert Arazi Feb 2016 #38

Once again, you are my heroine. JudyM Feb 2016 #41

Amazing! I was hoping for the swarm! They never fail! Except when they get a 0-7 :D JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #43

we are going to fucking lose if we can't respectfully counter each other Quayblue Feb 2016 #46

I didn't make the alert Aerows Feb 2016 #50

I know you didn't Quayblue Feb 2016 #60

Heck no! JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #74

lol Duckhunter935 Feb 2016 #82

Well, that alerter is in the corner for 24 hrs. tragic! kath Feb 2016 #107

I got the alert Aerows Feb 2016 #119

Well Done Aerows! 2banon Feb 2016 #174

I'm getting confused (jury results) Quayblue Feb 2016 #44

It was baffling for me, too Aerows Feb 2016 #47

I primarily agree with her Quayblue Feb 2016 #65

Perhaps Hillary's supporters find discussion of issues Utopian Leftist Feb 2016 #194

I'm waiting for the day when I serve on one of my own posts. Spitfire of ATJ Feb 2016 #77

I hope you wouldn't have to Quayblue Feb 2016 #99

Must be a pain ordering pants for that. Spitfire of ATJ Feb 2016 #125

that's why I go and try them on Quayblue Feb 2016 #134

Got it. We'll get someone else to go for pizza. Spitfire of ATJ Feb 2016 #159

tikka masala please Quayblue Feb 2016 #160

If you had a problem with her OP, why didn't you address it there? George II Feb 2016 #48

OT. Besides, Jon never said he had a problem with her OP. merrily Feb 2016 #59

I had no problem with it. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #72

The poster seems to be opposed to your having fun with it on your own thread, merrily Feb 2016 #135

Every time this question was asked in hers whatchamacallit Feb 2016 #67

Bravenak said to create this OP Arazi Feb 2016 #68

Meh Bobbie Jo Feb 2016 #75

It was a good faith effort at dialogue. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #78

And some prefer to mock and munch on popcorn. Bobbie Jo Feb 2016 #93

Well, they already addressed the Bernie questions on the other OP. So it is time to kick back. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #95

Like I said Bobbie Jo Feb 2016 #109

Yea, I'm with you. JTFrog Feb 2016 #161

the OP WAS told to start his own thread Duckhunter935 Feb 2016 #85

Did anyone come up with any yet? fbc Feb 2016 #49

I'm still thinking. None yet. 840high Feb 2016 #71

crickets. kath Feb 2016 #111

Wow! ybbor Feb 2016 #61

why not visit her site mgmaggiemg Feb 2016 #62

Because they don't list anything that qualifies. jeff47 Feb 2016 #188

No, but I can name 3 pieces zentrum Feb 2016 #64

Thank you. JDPriestly Feb 2016 #90

This is why Hillary Clinton's term 'firewall' for POC is so disgusting: JimDandy Feb 2016 #117

Well Put. zentrum Feb 2016 #126

Absolutely. Former military here, but this was so obvious JimDandy Feb 2016 #133

Forget when she was in Senate Nanjeanne Feb 2016 #89

I think she was involved in some political groups in college. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #91

To be fair she did go to work for the Children's defense fun nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #103

While Chair of CDF she was also on Board of Walmart Nanjeanne Feb 2016 #113

I know... it gets complicated nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #115

Okay... radical noodle Feb 2016 #128

That is hardly the point nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #130

There IS no point to this radical noodle Feb 2016 #169

Who said I am ignoring them? nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #193

I like my popcorn plain nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #94

I prefer it with a dressing of alert stalking. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #102

Well that goes without saying nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #104

I was thinking about a snack right now. Fuddnik Feb 2016 #110

That's a simple question isn't it? nt thereismore Feb 2016 #98

Sure: Lucinda Feb 2016 #100

Superficial posturing with no real effect on the lives of POC..... none. Indepatriot Feb 2016 #120

There is nothing superficial about the subjects of those three resolutions Lucinda Feb 2016 #127

I never said the "subjects" of the resolutions themselves were superficial, only the resolutions. Indepatriot Feb 2016 #141

So.....Having your cultural icons honored by your government means nothing. Lucinda Feb 2016 #143

Window dressing, plain and simple. Nice, appropriate, but in no way addresses the day to day Indepatriot Feb 2016 #146

Well I disagree, as I am sure many others will. Lucinda Feb 2016 #149

I tell you what those arts organizations like Ailey need- funding. If you were to look at the Bluenorthwest Feb 2016 #192

Shirley Chisolm, Alvin Ailey 6chars Feb 2016 #140

Basically a waste of time to go through them all because they will be ignored or dismissed. JTFrog Feb 2016 #158

Um. What about the aecond part of the claim. Rilgin Feb 2016 #167

There are lots of things that passed the Senate that she proposed. Perhaps go check for yourself? Lucinda Feb 2016 #170

I actually looked on Congress.com Rilgin Feb 2016 #176

Yep. I had at one point in time, started to collect them, but there are sooo many Lucinda Feb 2016 #168

Google is your friend radical noodle Feb 2016 #101

I'm terribly sorry, but only legislation that exclusively benefits PoC answers the OP. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #105

I love it that you are using the same exact ridicolous goal post nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #114

I had a great time with this OP. It has been a fun night. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #121

You welcome, I needed the break nadinbrzezinski Feb 2016 #123

applause for you good sir. nt retrowire Feb 2016 #129

Interesting Loudestlib Feb 2016 #122

Not legislation..... but she did coin the popular phrase... Indepatriot Feb 2016 #124

Sadly, I'm just not seeing much in the way of good answers in this thread. How saddening. Ed Suspicious Feb 2016 #137

But of course, some of us knew what the sound of the many non-lulz, substantive posts would be. JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #144

Next to nothing. lovemydog Feb 2016 #147

oh bravenak ? olddots Feb 2016 #152

You may suffer from bds. lovemydog Feb 2016 #156

Sure, here you go. Complete list is below. CBGLuthier Feb 2016 #154

- bravenak Feb 2016 #165

Of those, which were signed into law? And which had to do with people of color? merrily Feb 2016 #177

The info was there bravenak Feb 2016 #179

Don't be so shy. None of it became law, even the ceremonial stuff. merrily Feb 2016 #180

+1, but Clinton didn't spend 2231234 years in congress either... I think the amount of legislation uponit7771 Feb 2016 #181

But she's supposed to be the one who can get things done. jeff47 Feb 2016 #189

It looks like she did get things done in the short time she was there. uponit7771 Feb 2016 #190

Then why is there no legislation that satisfies the "rules" outlined by Bravenak? (nt) jeff47 Feb 2016 #191

*chirp chirp* Hydra Feb 2016 #196

One would think his submissions would dwarf hers. He is the hero bravenak Feb 2016 #195

Thank you. I am not too impressed either. But neither of our candidates really fit the bill for this JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #198

This is why I like Stein bravenak Feb 2016 #199

I really, really like her too. She even supports reparations ( that affects PoC right? ;-) ) JonLeibowitz Feb 2016 #200

Yep. She is down with the cause. bravenak Feb 2016 #201

knr nt slipslidingaway Feb 2016 #175

Well she championed the "End of Welfare Act". Warren Stupidity Feb 2016 #182

It's so quiet in here... Hydra Feb 2016 #197
