Well well well, what's old is new again!

Check this out! This says it all. Boy, does this ever sound familiar doesn't it? Replace POTUS with Bernie and there you go! Hillary though is still the same old Hillary and repeating the same talking points, even down to "how will you pay for it!?" lol
Ya we saw how good THAT worked for her didn't we in 2008?

Read this article to show how Hillary forced Obama into more war at the expense of so many lives.

THIS IS WHY HILLARY CAN NOT BE PRESIDENT!!!

We need to get rid of the Neo-Cons, not elect one.

How many have to die before we start to care?

Boy, I hate watching or listening to Hillary but that was a fun watch! She was so annoyed and angry and uncomfortable while Obama schooled her.

I was wincing just about all the way through it.

She will say or do absolutely anything for just the slightest advantage, everything is pure political calculation.

There's no there there.

If one is objective, looking at many past debate "performances", you can see a pattern emerging.

Side note: I miss feisty Obama the candidate!

and if Bernie had Obama's communication skills and easy demeanor, we'd have/have had two of the greatest candidates to ever walk the face of the earth.

They toe the corporate line no matter what. They don't stand by positions, and the people they stand by can be swapped out with no concern for principles.

it's like the rent-a-activists--they'll throw up the fist alright, but get real touchy when you ask them where there money comes from or why they proudly say they don't know the first thing about what they were forming a human wall against

and thanks for reminding me, WTF Hillary - with the "BARACK" shit? What happened to Sen. Obama?

Like she's talking down to a child or something. That evil, stare down....I'm surprised Obama's skin didn't burn to a crisp.

The lies and doubling down on bullshit just steams my clams.

Grrrr.............these videos remind me why I can not vote for Hillary Clinton.

Thanks for reminding me!
