Cannot believe no one on Hillary's team told her about this

One thing I hate about Hillaryspeak, and it plays into her untrustworthiness (people TOTALLY get it on a subconscious level), is she responds to every tough question beginning with "Well..." I was listen to Hill respond to something Bernie said, "Israel's response was excessive."

Q: Do you agree with Senator Sanders that Israel's response was excessive.

HRC: Well...(the long winded dance of avoidant language; the more you say, the less you say)

Of course Hillary wouldn't answer the question, just like she can't say, "Of course Bernie is qualified," or "Of course Barack Obama is a Christian." Even easy questions are difficult for her.

I can't take it anymore! What the fuck is this all about?! Ha! Turns out it's speaks to exactly what her detractors have said about her for years: She's fucking full of shit, and here she goes again! Cry sexism all you want. People know on a conscieous or subconscious level that she's lying.

If You Begin a Sentence with Well, There's a Good Chance You're Lying

"If you think someone's lying, you can't really subject them to a polygraph test. But, it turns out that if they start their sentence with the word "well," you won't have to.

Over at Psychology Today, psychologist John R. Schafer gets into one technique that's part of the Poor Man's Polygraph—a series of techniques to detect deception in your everyday conversation. It's pretty simple. If someone starts off a sentence with "well," there's a good chance they're lying. Here's why:

When you ask someone a direct Yes or No question and they begin their answer with the word "Well," there is a high probability of deception. Beginning an answer to a direct Yes or No question with the word "Well" indicates that the person answering the question is about to give you an answer that they know you are not expecting."

1. Excellent analysis. By not quoting her, you proved ...

... What did you prove?

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

3. ^Proves her detractors listen to her more carefully than her supporters

Thank you for playing.

[Buzz Clik]

5. Oh, I get it. Her detractors heard and memorized those comments you didn't quote...

... making the quote unnecessary.

Got it.

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

8. You're not a serious person

[Buzz Clik]

9. Ah. So this is about me.

Ok.

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

11. Don't get me wrong. I like you because you're giving this thread the visibility it deserves.

Keep kicking!

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

6. Per usual, first word to a yes or no question is "Well..." I don't care to listen to her bullshit...

but feel free to count the number of times she uses it in this clip.

Edit: Oooops! Here's the video. My bad lol

[northernsouthern]

2. Yeah there is a bigger question.

When it comes to sexism, studies show that people intrinsically trust women far more than men. This is one place she should have the advantage. The fact that I can't trust her is that she always walks around facts, pulls the Obama a muslim cr@p.

4. Ouch!

[Zira]

14. +1

[BillZBubb]

7. Well, I don't know about that!

Ok, I do know--she is lying. She always lies.

[Bonobo]

10. Her excessive nodding when listening also means to me "I'm not listening, I'm pretending to."

nt

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

12. I was wondering about that because, in the video I provided above, she knew the question was coming

and didn't need to listen, she was ready to respond.

Good point.

[mrdmk]

13. Well, that is a deep subject

Somebody had to say it!

[passiveporcupine]

15. She does often start off with "well"

And every time I hear her do this, my first reaction is "oh here it comes, the equivocation"

[mrdmk]

17. Yes, another reason I can only take her for 10 minutes at a time

'Well, (here is another line of bullshit)?'

[Lodestar]

16. Welllll.......Ronnie was the master

[Major Hogwash]

18. "Ya know" is another tipoff.

And she says it all the friggin' time.

[passiveporcupine]

19. Ya know, I think you're right!

just teasing!

[mmonk]

20. Could be a tell for her but wouldn't know without

more observation.

[TreasonousBastard]

21. It could also mean...

that the answer is complex and you are trying to simplify it.

Or, it could be simply a speech inflection you've had for years.

But, whatever, if it helps you hate Hillary even more, keep on truckin'.

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

22. No. Pathetic. If you can't identify avoidant behavior, you're gullible.

[TreasonousBastard]

26. Well, I start out conversations with "well"...

when I'm not lying. It's just a pattern of speech. And I do understand that speech patterns and body language have meaning, but sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Since I'm not an interrogator, merely a listener, I have far more interest in specifically what is said than in how it is said.

Your hatred of Hillary is admirable to some, but allowing it it color your judgment is another aspect of gullibility.

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

29. Again. This stuff is over your head. I'll help you, but my expectations are low

Q: Hillary, is Barack Obama a Muslim?
Hillary: Well... (it really doesn't matter what this part of her long winded response is).
Questioner comes back: Hillary, is Barack Obama a Christian? Well... (again, using more words to say nothing)..."as far as I know." In ability to answer Yes or No is indicative of avoidant behavior and deception.

Here's an example in which the use of Well is benign.

Bernie: My opponent thinks taking millions of dollars from corporations won't influence her decisions. Well I do!

This shit is so simple.

[cherokeeprogressive]

23. Isn't "Well..." the way Saint Ronnie started just about every answer at pressers?

That little shake of the head and "Well..."

Did she go to the same voice coach as Ronald Reagan?

[reddread]

24. nobody needs to tell her how to lie

[Octafish]

25. Reagan used to start every sentence with ''Well.''

"Well, I don't know."

"Well, mistakes were made."

"Well, I still don't think I was trading arms for hostages, even if the record shows otherwise."

"Well, Ed Meese did that."

"Well, they're poor by choice."

"Well, wouldn't it be a nice time for a botulism outbreak."

"Well, George Bush is in charge while I'm in the hospital."

Thank you, WhaTHellsgoingonhere! Great OP and interesting information from Dr. Shafer!

28. I love this article, so true. K/R (nt)

[islandmkl]

30. i'm surprised that you haven't had this exchange with your detractors on this OP:

Detractor: 'this is all bullshit...you just hate Hillary...you guys will say anything to make her look bad....etc.'

WhaTHellsgoinonhere: 'did you even read the article at the link?'

Detractor: 'Well......'

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

32. It's indefensible. Feigned ignorance. I swatted one, not going to waste time on all of them.

[rock]

31. Well if that isn't a load of Codswallop

Yes it is.
