136. If you are uncritically citing/quoting Ann Coulter, Newsbusters, Trey Gowdy, Fox News 'personalities

Kirtsten Powers, "Clinton Cash" etc etc then you are using Republican opinion makers talking points against a Democrat. These and other right wing opinionators are being quoted as 'experts' at DU.

That is not all that difficult to understand. When you give those creeps credibility,
You are using right wingers and right wing talking points at DU to slam Democrats.

Hillary is too conservative for me, as she was in 2008. That being said, if you post right wing critiques by right wingers to support smear Democrats, I have zero tolerance for that.

When Bernie wins Iowa and New Hampshire, these same "experts" are going to open their sewage pipes on him. I think that's something one should remember the impulse comes on to use one off them together HRC.

I guess he's had a change of heart. RiverLover Aug 2015 #5

Who gives a TOSS whether or not he supports Rand Paul? sibelian Aug 2015 #60

I guess the irony of a Rand Paul supporter bashing Hillary and then insisting DanTex Aug 2015 #61

Yeeeeeah. sibelian Aug 2015 #70

Which is ironic, coming from a Rand Paul fan. DanTex Aug 2015 #76

...meaning what? sibelian Aug 2015 #78

It sounds like druidity33 Aug 2015 #163

The irony is hard to miss Gothmog Aug 2015 #126

What you mean all SOS have email servers in their house zeemike Aug 2015 #25

Calm down. Breath. Spell Check. Thor_MN Aug 2015 #38

Because someone has to say it. zeemike Aug 2015 #48

Ah, so you claim to be Sander's attack dog. Thor_MN Aug 2015 #50

criticism is not the same as attack. zeemike Aug 2015 #73

If the worded exactly the same, they are the same thing. Thor_MN Aug 2015 #80

So in other words all you need to dismiss a critique is zeemike Aug 2015 #86

So you believe one should accept a right wing attack, if it is sent on DU? Thor_MN Aug 2015 #87

No I believe you should accept facts regardless of who has used them before. zeemike Aug 2015 #106

You are missing the point -- ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY Armstead Aug 2015 #59

Actually, you are missing the point. Thor_MN Aug 2015 #67

Republicans in 2009 -- "We do not like Obama's proposed health care plan." Armstead Aug 2015 #68

So your point is that an apple is not an orange? Thor_MN Aug 2015 #69

You made a generaization, so did I. I know we are all individuals Armstead Aug 2015 #83

No, I was quite specific. If one has nothing but RW talking points, Thor_MN Aug 2015 #85

Feel free to point out how they stationed the Secret Service between the server and the Internet. jeff47 Aug 2015 #36

I'm sorry, I thought the beef was the physical location of the server. Thor_MN Aug 2015 #41

No, one beef is with the security of the server jeff47 Aug 2015 #43

Don't you hate when you find out that you are spouting Right WingTalking Points Thor_MN Aug 2015 #49

Zilch on Ben Gazhi, zilch on E-Gazhi, but the hunt is more fun than actually catching the prey! Fred Sanders Aug 2015 #42

Did Bernie have a call with Rince Penis before he announced? cosmicone Aug 2015 #74

Eeek, jkbRN Aug 2015 #111

Sure Bradical79 Aug 2015 #37

It is fair to criticize without knowing what is going on? Essentially that is the basis of the entire argument. Fred Sanders Aug 2015 #40

I agree. Isn't that what I said? -nt Bradical79 Aug 2015 #93

Yes. I was being satirical. Thanks for the support! Fred Sanders Aug 2015 #96

"Her great shame" ... did you actually use that phrase???? JoePhilly Aug 2015 #128

You don't think Hillary felt shame over what happened? Especially the impeachment? jalan48 Aug 2015 #131

You feel shame about your own behavior, not the behavior of others. JoePhilly Aug 2015 #134

You are really into your Republican thing. I guess it works for you. jalan48 Aug 2015 #135

Because she wants to be President maybe. JoePhilly Aug 2015 #139

Hillary has some major baggage. jalan48 Aug 2015 #161

Surprised you used "baggage" and not "package". JoePhilly Aug 2015 #169

You must have been in grade school in the 1990's. You seem very unware of what took place. jalan48 Aug 2015 #170
