108. Starting at $12 means bargaining down to a lower figure. Probably $7.25; maybe less.

And they say she's not Repub-lite. Jester Messiah Nov 2015 #9

check out the video in reply 99 marym625 Nov 2015 #100

Or as I like to say... War, gender and 9/11 cui bono Nov 2015 #106

And then going after the Twitter guy ibegurpard Nov 2015 #2

The Twitter guy offered to "take it back" 99th_Monkey Nov 2015 #5

The Twitter guy spoke for many Armstead Nov 2015 #6

And it's all the fault of the person on twitter. jeff47 Nov 2015 #3

Fun link for additional perspective on that Jarqui Nov 2015 #4

WOW grasswire Nov 2015 #101

Law professor! cui bono Nov 2015 #107

Did they say that? 72DejaVu Nov 2015 #16

Yes, they did say that. jeff47 Nov 2015 #18

They said "Hilary can't handle one tweet"? 72DejaVu Nov 2015 #19

Guess I'll just cut-and-paste my last reply, since you didn't read it the first time. jeff47 Nov 2015 #20

So we can argue all afternoon about why your mischaracterization isn't a mischaracterization? 72DejaVu Nov 2015 #23

Well, if quotes are so important, one would think you could find one that shows jeff47 Nov 2015 #24

I admire your persistence 72DejaVu Nov 2015 #25

My dad is bigger than your dad. What a horseshit answer. Ed Suspicious Nov 2015 #33

She responded to that tweet d_legendary1 Nov 2015 #56

So she did "handle" the tweet 72DejaVu Nov 2015 #60

If by "handle" you mean give another 9/11 answer d_legendary1 Nov 2015 #64

Yes. She could have argued in good faith. DirkGently Nov 2015 #7

The more I see of her... Hepburn Nov 2015 #8

I try not to see her or listen to her. I don't trust her to SammyWinstonJack Nov 2015 #36

This ^ AlbertCat Nov 2015 #39

From the beginning of the primaries I've said I would vote for Hillary if she's the nominee deutsey Nov 2015 #10

Ditto. n/t Hepburn Nov 2015 #11

Well she's still better than a Republican.....I guess. Armstead Nov 2015 #17

it doesn't matter if every DUer brings 5 people to the polls for her, she'd still lose MisterP Nov 2015 #43

You're free to do as you are told! Yurovsky Nov 2015 #63

that's why the DLCers can't win with a real Dem around: they've run the party with Ratched-like MisterP Nov 2015 #76

I know what you mean. zentrum Nov 2015 #30

Don't alert on me Bro*, but right back at ya! Darb Nov 2015 #65

Couldn't care any less than I do deutsey Nov 2015 #67

Don't alert on me Bro*, but you don't really act like Darb Nov 2015 #69

I was number seven: guillaumeb Nov 2015 #75

Notice that I didn't alert one their having Darb Nov 2015 #79

She happened to be a Senator in New York State when 9-11 happened. Her duty was to work /w Sunlei Nov 2015 #12

So this explains all of the donations from Wall Street to Hepburn Nov 2015 #13

Bush knew, but I do not think Mrs. Clinton was in Bushes circle,do U?Mrs. Clinton in 2002, to media. Sunlei Nov 2015 #15

Try again... Hepburn Nov 2015 #21

I might just stop trying to be receptive to Clinton. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #14

It creeps me out... Ino Nov 2015 #22

I hope that is not the only reason she concerns you ejbr Nov 2015 #28

Yeah, that's pretty close to Mike__M Nov 2015 #58

Oh no, LOL Ino Nov 2015 #61

Ha! ejbr Nov 2015 #83

LOL grasswire Nov 2015 #105

And then there's that awful moment... 99Forever Nov 2015 #26

I'm trying to avoid that moment Armstead Nov 2015 #32

Bargaining down to $12/hour is another clanger Demeter Nov 2015 #27

I love the message but hate the picture. Ed Suspicious Nov 2015 #34

Starting at $12 means bargaining down to a lower figure. Probably $7.25; maybe less. Scuba Nov 2015 #108

It's currently $7.25, and has been for 45 years Demeter Nov 2015 #109

Maybe that's why Hillary is thought of as the "status quo" candidate. Scuba Nov 2015 #116

"She insulted people's intelligence with a dishonest deflection from the issue." Martin Eden Nov 2015 #29

Totally agree Android3.14 Nov 2015 #31

What Republicans Said in Private About Hillary�s Post-9/11 Recovery Work riversedge Nov 2015 #35

Not denying she did well in handling 9-11....That's not the point Armstead Nov 2015 #37

And you just involked the horrible incident in Paris to make YOUR point... riversedge Nov 2015 #44

I "invoked" it because I found the timing offensive Armstead Nov 2015 #48

No excuses--You invoked it to make a point. Period. riversedge Nov 2015 #51

Don't then. If you can't figure out the difference..... Armstead Nov 2015 #53

Make that two unknown schmucks! n/t Admiral Loinpresser Nov 2015 #98

We know she's competent. AlbertCat Nov 2015 #41

Your vile talking points have gone stale riversedge Nov 2015 #46

Riversedge, love your post above. Nitram Nov 2015 #57

I am not certain that Darb Nov 2015 #68

I can't quite tell whether you post is sarcastic or not, Darb. Nitram Nov 2015 #71

Not sarcasm. Darb Nov 2015 #74

Thank you for your kind words. I do hope all read it. riversedge Nov 2015 #72

Makes me think of this gem from The Onion Goblinmonger Nov 2015 #80

Hillary is a great person. Beacool Nov 2015 #47

No, as I said in the OP....I've been hoping to not hear any "gotcha moments" Armstead Nov 2015 #50

So in other words Rilgin Nov 2015 #89

Recently, someone told me he didn't like Hillary because after the Monica bullshit, valerief Nov 2015 #38

I long ago figured that out...Not looking for a drinking buddy Armstead Nov 2015 #42

Same here. But Hillary pulling the terror card is all part of the bullshit valerief Nov 2015 #45

I agree about the Republicans Armstead Nov 2015 #49

One of the reasons she has difficultly with questions like this, IMO... Punkingal Nov 2015 #40

Every time I try to be receptive to Sanders, Nitram Nov 2015 #52

Fine. We're all entitled to our opinions Armstead Nov 2015 #54

Gee, thanks! Nitram Nov 2015 #59

You're welcome. Armstead Nov 2015 #62

Throwing in the gender card made her sound even phonier to me. CharlotteVale Nov 2015 #55

Hillary is proud of the fact that she has that many women donors. Why demean riversedge Nov 2015 #73

Because it had nothing to do with the subject at hand Armstead Nov 2015 #86

The subject about her donors was brought up Sanders. Who her donors ARE IS important and riversedge Nov 2015 #87

We're splitting hairs here Armstead Nov 2015 #90

And you are the one who invoked the Paris terror attack to make YOUR point!! Madam President riversedge Nov 2015 #92

And I will invoke it again, just to piss you off, if you'd like Armstead Nov 2015 #93

Do what you will--Iowa Dems don't care... �My God,� he added, �what�s the big deal?� riversedge Nov 2015 #95

Don't alert on me Bro*, but what the fuck are you talking about? Darb Nov 2015 #66

Did you watch the debate? Armstead Nov 2015 #70

Don't alert on me Bro*, but all I've heard is ridiculous claims Darb Nov 2015 #77

I have no intention of alerting on you Armstead Nov 2015 #84

It was vomit inducing. Schema Thing Nov 2015 #81

The only thing that is vile is the OP making up something out of nothing. riversedge Nov 2015 #88

The New York Times and many other mainstream observers agree with the point of the OP Armstead Nov 2015 #91

No, exploiting 2,996 deaths to smokescreen for one's bank ties is vile. Scootaloo Nov 2015 #104

Don't alert on me Bro*, but this is a shark jumping exercise, Darb Nov 2015 #82

Okay, just us conspiracty theorists and the Editorial Board of the NY Times thought it inappropriate Armstead Nov 2015 #85

I watched it and I'm not a Hillary supporter lovemydog Nov 2015 #94

Before worrying about being receptive to Clinton why don't you wait until the voters actually vote Bernblu Nov 2015 #96

I know that, but based on present evidence... Armstead Nov 2015 #97

K&R! marym625 Nov 2015 #99

You're not the only one, unfortunately. sabrina 1 Nov 2015 #102

Yeah Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #103

She's awful. Period. (Nt) bigwillq Nov 2015 #115

What's so awful about it? treestar Nov 2015 #117

Her handling of 9-11 was fine. She did what she should have. Armstead Nov 2015 #118

What is so awful about he Big Banks and Wall Street and Big Corporations? treestar Nov 2015 #119

9-11 was a bad event. Of course it was. But that is not the subject. Armstead Nov 2015 #120

Apparently, Hillary is not the only one... ljm2002 Nov 2015 #121
