| Two thirds of the threads on this forum are vicious flamebait attacks on Hillary Clinton! |
|
It's disgusting how much acrimony and hate are being directed here against one of the staunchest and strongest Democrats in our nation's history. :puke:

| 14. Let's be clear here.. |
|
With Hillary and the DLC's animus toward the DNC and Dean, her idiotic vote on Bush's war resolution and his shame Iran vote, don't you think it is deserved?
Then let's pop to the future - the Obama photo, the tepid Muslim defense, the experience/McCain answer, the fear commercial and on and on (I don't doubt for second her campaign was behind the Obama race/Muslim race baiting photo). So you tell me, how many examples do you need?

Sadly, I think HRC is showing her true Clinton colors with her recent campaign against Obama. Maybe if she wasn't running the sort of campaign that she has been, then maybe people wouldn't be as harsh.

all of the chain e-mails i have received have been vicious attacks against Obama. Not one against Hillary. All from Democrats. Local Party leaders.
I guess some of us have reached the point of the straw that broke the camels back.
I don't know about the other posters on here, but it is a bit of a release. I'm still trying not to bash the crap out of Hillary to my friends and family in case she is the nominee and she somehow, someway redeems herself and i have to supporter her. Right now I want to tell everyone to go vote and stop her b/c she is a lying piece of crap with no morals.

So "staunch" she won't use her Senate vote against the Bush administration's worst excesses.
So "strong" she can't keep from having her ass handed to her by a neophyte.
Note that none of what I said constitutes either acrimony or hate. Just weariness.

Hillary has said repeatedly said that whoever ends up being the nominee the democratic party must be united. You better believe that after all the shit that Obama and the press corps has thrown at her that Hillary will be the adult and help him win. The attacks are disgusting because Hillary is not going away.

And all of those posts about international affairs -- obviously targeted at Hillary.
So, clearly at least 2/3 of threads are attacks on Clinton.
In fact, I suspect that your post really is a vicious, flamebait attack on HRC -- I just haven't figured out how yet.
