Hillary's Campaign Kickoff


Recommended Posts

I especially like what she said about Trump:

 

“We need steady hands, not a president who says he’s neutral on Monday, pro-Israel on Tuesday, and who knows what on Wednesday, because everything is negotiable,”

 

Says the woman who backed Barry and his call for Israel to return to the 1967 borders.

Hillary’s Really Bad Week No One Heard About Because Guess Who

 

Hillary Clinton had a gaffe-filled, staggeringly bad week last week. It started with her politicizing Nancy Reagan’s funeral and ended with more explosive allegations that her informal adviser Sidney Blumenthal had directly cut and pasted classified intelligence into an unsecured personal e-mail account. But you wouldn’t know it from media campaign coverage, which has been far more occupied with the GOP primary and the escalation of violent incidents at rallies.

 

{snip}

 

Our media is all too happy to broadcast fists flying at Trump rallies, and Trump, being the useful tool that he is, is all too happy to let them do it, as long as the topic is Trump and not the most beatable Democratic candidate in a generation. If Hillary is to be held accountable for her actions as secretary of state and her disturbing proclamations about this nation’s economy, Trump has to be the one to do it. As of yet, he has shown zero willingness to do so.

The largest member-based organization for registered nurses in the United States threw its support behind Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination on Tuesday.

"Hillary Clinton has been a nurse champion and health care advocate throughout her career and believes empowering nurses is good for patients and good for the country," Pamela F. Cipriano, president of the 3.4-million-member American Nurses Association, said in a statement.

 

Clinton welcomed the endorsement from the Silver Spring, Maryland-based organization by touting her own health care plan.

“As President, I will always stand with America’s nurses in the fight to finally achieve universal, affordable health care and fight against any efforts to roll back the protections and coverage of the Affordable Care Act," Clinton said in a statement released through the campaign.

Hillary has a three-part plan to defeat ISIS in the Middle East, around the world, and here at home.

Uh...oh, okay. Aside from the fact that Part 1 makes Part 2 impossible, since if you take out ISIS’ stronghold, the global network loses any semblance of central control, fragments, becomes harder to roll up, and becomes a bunch of little nuclei for new global networks.

 

And we've just spent the past two days being told that ISIS doesn't HAVE a global terror network per se, just a bunch of like-minded self-directed gomers, so Part 2 is bull **** anyway.

 

And you forgot the single most effective strategy in counter-terrorism: hitting their funding.

 

But other than that, your set of vapid tropes you're pretending represent a plan is spot on. Even if you only managed to go one for four in a 3-part plan. :wallbash:

 

 

!@#$ it. I'm writing in the Underpants Gnomes.

If we did 1 and 2, why would we need to do 3?

 

And, let's say we follow Hillary's plan. Who will take ISIS' place? Somebody will. Or, do we intend to install a Jeffersonian Democracy in Iraq and then the rest of the middle East will see how awesome it is and follow suit? Seemed to work the last time (she voted for it) we tried it. :o

This is the stick of her carrot and stick approach.

The carrot will be that she and Bill go on a speaking tour where they get paid $250,000 per speech in which they'll tell ISIS et al how much good they're doing in the world, by fighting against those evil dictators who have suppressed them for centuries.

Hillary's carrot maybe but Bill uses his carrots differently.

Because 1&2 will not be accomplished overnight so while those are being worked on we need to be doing 3.

Way to go Hillary, the two places she led the charge to destablize as SoS...

 

ISIS has sent 400 fighters to attack Europe, officials say

 

Several security officials have said there is growing evidence to suggest the bulk of the training is taking place in Syria, Libya and elsewhere in North Africa.

I know he has more than a few detractors around here, but you have to respect the balls on Glenn Greenwald if not his writing. Here's an interview (and article that sparked said interview) he gave about Hillary's record of supporting dictators:

 

"...and she very self-righteously said, "How could you possibly praise a government that is oppressive and tyrannical." And yet, if you look at Hillary Clinton’s record, not in the 1980s, but far more recently, in the last five to six years, she has embraced and expressed extreme levels of support for some of the world’s most brutal and horrific dictators. She called President Mubarak of Egypt a close personal friend of her family and expressed all kinds of support for him at the time that the government, of which she was a part, was arming and funding him. She did the same with the Saudis. The Clinton Foundation has raised money from some of the worst and most oppressive dictatorships in the Persian Gulf, including the Saudis and the Qataris and the Emirates and the Bahrainis. Hillary Clinton, essentially, her record has been one of embracing and supporting, in all kinds of ways, the world’s worst tyrants."

 

(snip)

 

"...And so it’s very easy to talk about Donald Trump being close to dictators or being dangerous, but there has been a huge amount of Hillary Clinton’s record that has spawned immense amounts of tyranny and violence in the world, that Democrats and progressives are steadfastly ignoring."

 

(snip)

 

"And what Hillary Clinton did was go before AIPAC and pander, as grotesquely as she typically does, by affirming this line that if you "malign," quote-unquote, the government of Israel and support a boycott of it, in opposition to their decades-long occupation of the Palestinians, it means essentially that you’re guilty of maligning the Jewish people. She is conflating the government of Israel with Jews, which, ironically enough, is itself a long-standing anti-Semitic trope. But it’s just part of her moving to the right in order to position herself for the general election by affirming some of the United States government’s worst and most violent policies."

 

(snip)

 

"... a couple months ago, Donald Trump, on an MSNBC program, said, when asked about Israel and Palestine, that he thought the U.S. should be neutral in order to be a more effective arbiter, which until 20 years ago was a standard mainstream U.S. position, but now has become very shocking. Same with what Bernie Sanders just said. To hear a prominent American politician stand up and actually criticize Israel in such stark and blunt terms, calling them occupiers, essentially, and criticizing how they’re treating the Palestinians, is almost shocking to the ear. Hillary Clinton would never do it, nor would leading Republican politicians. And yet it’s really a very mild way to talk about Israel."

Does he realize that BDS actually hurts Palestinians more than it hurts Israelis?

What is a BDS and how does it hurts Palestinians more than it hurts Israelis?

Boycott, divestment and sanctions.

 

The boycott includes businesses run by Israelis in the West Bank which employs primarily Palestinians.

Once again talking about UFOs, claiming UAP is new (it's not, and comes directly from MOD and DoD FOYI documents which in and of itself is proof she's aware of these documents)

 

 

Sorry Gator.....there goes your sane bullet point.
