I'm just going to drop this right here

[pinebox]

[Punkingal]

1. Oh.

Wow. I hadn't thought of that.

[SHRED]

2. BOOM

[artyteacher]

3. just like every other candidate's private speeches. eom

[SHRED]

5. Yeah sure...

...just another private speech like everyone else.

[artyteacher]

7. you dont remember romney's private talks getting leaked....

And trump had something leaked recently that hurt him.


Political newbies know no history.

[Hiraeth]

39. they are republicans ... oh wait

[gabeana]

44. I know these supporters protecting Hillary

and using Republicans as examples

[Hiraeth]

48. Hillariously Ironic idn't it.

[gabeana]

65. yeah it is

so transparent unlike their candidate
they have a hard time justifying a candidate that supports the wealthy, hedges on everything they got nothing

[pinebox]

6. I find it hilarious

that you and your ilk don't seem to know the definition of "conflict of interest".
Tell us how is Hillary going to tell them to "knock it off" and "call them out" when she is taking money from them?
Do you really think she's that stupid? I don't. She knows exactly what she's doing and guess what? Ted Cruz's wife was on the board of Goldman-Sachs when Hillary gave her speeches. Have fun with that.

[artyteacher]

9. then every candidate on earth including bernie..

Has conflicts of interest.

[pinebox]

10. Show us where Bernie has given speeches to financial institutions

We'll wait.
She's dirty but so are your glasses which is preventing you from seeing the truth.

Meanwhile ponder this.

[artyteacher]

13. bernie got help from the NRA and

He voted with their interests.

[pinebox]

18. Oh the NRA you say?

Who's Annie Oakley.
We're talking about transcripts and speeches. Pay attention!

[Fawke Em]

37. Don't forget this one!

NRA Lobbyist Will Co-Host Hillary Clinton Fundraiser

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has called her support for gun control laws a key differentiator from her opponent Bernie Sanders, who she claims isn’t tough enough on the industry. But in mid-March, a Clinton campaign fundraiser will be co-hosted by a lobbyist whose clients have included the National Rifle Association (NRA).

As David Sirota reported Monday in the International Business Times, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta is a co-host and the guest of honor at a fundraising lunch in the nation’s capital on March 21.

One of the other co-hosts is Jeff Forbes of the lobbying firm Forbes-Tate.

Forbes has represented the NRA since 2009 and as of the last quarter of 2015 was still registered to lobby for the organization. On his lobbying disclosure, Forbes wrote that he was signed up to lobby for “Issues related to 2nd Amendment rights, regulation and gun control, and tax and appropriations related to same; issues related to corporate tax reform.”

45. Hey Arty

where you at

[99Forever]

53. *crickets*

arty has left the building.

[pdsimdars]

29. Could you provide the link?

Or are you trying to pretend that something Hillary said is true?

[libdem4life]

35. Hard to figure he has a D- rating.

Maybe he paid them for their "rousing" non- endorsement. Talk about beating a dead horse.

[magical thyme]

60. bull. the NRA tanked a GOP candidate for betraying them

Bernie benefited from that, but he didn't seek nor owe favors for their inadvertent help.

They took a gamble that he'd be a one-termer and lost their bet, badly.

He voted with Vermont's interest, not the NRA's.

[senz]

47. Wholly corporate owned. Marketed as HillaryClinton™ or HRC™

Expected return on investment: global, unlimited.

[SHRED]

12. Hillary's son in law worked for GS

For 8 years.

2000-2008

Gee I wonder what the banksters did during those years?


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Mezvinsky

[senz]

49. Knew he was a hedge fund manager & Chelsea also worked for a hedge fund

on graduation from Stanford. Is it possible she also was employed by Goldman Sachs?

And, WOW -- he was managing hedge funds for GS during the period they were ripping off unsuspecting Americans and destroying the U.S. economy?

And Hillary wants to be president? Seriously?

NO.

[Joob]

14. LOL except Bernie Sanders.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

21. Bullshit. If she wants the job of POTUS

then she has to be open and honest.

If I ever felt that somebidy that I was interviewing, and I have done that as part if my job, was being dishonest when asked a question abouth their recent past it would be a disqualifyer.

I have always found the Democratic personality cults to be most entertaining of all. They expect that kind of attitude from the republicans, but when we see it in their own candidates it is mind blowing WRT self deception.

[dchill]

54. A private speech would be one you give only to yourself.

If you know full well that you are going to run for President, you should fully expect that the content of any speech you may give will become an object of interest to the electorate. The content of your character and the quality of your judgment will be illustrated and indicated by those speeches. There is nothing private about them, unless you are interested in promoting your duplicity.

[rhett o rick]

67. .

[shawn703]

72. Not on the Democratic side

She is a Democrat running for the Democratic nomination, is she not?

[Skwmom]

4. That is LOL funny.

[haikugal]

8. Truth!!

[Land of Enchantment]

11. hahahaha. nt

[sufrommich]

15. Another right wing site being used by Sanders supporters.

There's some ,er,interesting photoshops at politifake.org.,especially their sections on "libtards" and their seemingly endless racist Michelle Obama jokes.

[pinebox]

20. A RW site?

Because a site which makes fun of BOTH parties is a RW site?
You must have a hard time with knowing people hate both parties these days.
Ya this is RW alright lol

Next?

[Autumn]

22. Sometimes you poke around in the dirt and find a gold nugget.

If a person is smart they don't throw it away just because they found it in the dirt.

[pinebox]

24. But it's a RW site!

Even when they make fun of Republicans too! lol

[Autumn]

25. The outrage is because it about Hillary, there would be no complaints if it was about Bernie.

[Broward]

30. You're concerned about right-wing sites yet you're backing a right-winger.

[senz]

56. More whitewash and cover-up from Hill supporters.

How dare we take a

good

long

look

at your candidate.

[ViseGrip]

16. Funny, but very sad because it's true....

[2banon]

17. Hillary Supporters don't give a damn about these secret meetings, how she sold us out to them.

It does compel one to conclude that in this online community, her supporters here are the functionaries for the 1% or the wanna be 1%. It's just about the only explanation for this.

Except those who are strictly about identity politics, (cuz she's a woman) that's the only other explanation.

Possible I have missed it, but I have not seen a single op from a supporter express any concern whatsoever on the underpinning issues and questions concerning these secret meetings.

Does there exist any Hillary Supporters who are the Poor and the Poor Working Class here in this community? It would be interesting to know.

[BillZBubb]

27. You nailed it. They just don't give a damn.

[pdsimdars]

31. And you have to wonder how these people on DU think that will benefit THEM?????

[Baitball Blogger]

19. .

[pinebox]

23. lol

[Politicalboi]

26. Good one

Her and her loser husband should just go away.

[CoffeeCat]

28. What Hillary did with that private server was UNPRECEDENTED

She appeared to favor being secretive over protecting classified information and the most sensitive of national-security secrets.

I don't know how her supporters accept this. My guess is that they are ignorant about what she did or they don't care enough research this on their own.

Her email server scandal cannot be understood in a few talking points. You have to engage in due diligence. If you're supporting her, you're an idiot if you don't do your due diligence on this subject.

I don't see how she escapes indictment. This is part of the reason that I am so adamant about her not being our nominee. She is radioactive.

Any Hillary supporter who doesn't understand the serious trouble she is in--is irresponsible. This thing could implode our entire party. It all depends on what the FBI recommends and what the DOJ ultimately decides. However, it's not looking good for her at all. I urge everyone to at least be informed and understand that major ramifications for our party could be coming.

What happens if she is indicted? Have people thought about that? What does that mean for our party? For this election?

[questionseverything]

34. i don't think it even matters if she is indicted because if she isn't at this point

repubs and indies will see it as her being protected by a democratic administration

she is a lose/lose scenario for democrats now

before this election any appearance of impropriety was enough for the candidate to withdrawal for the good of the party

i hope at some point the dnc realizes this and accept that bernie is the candidate we need ,that can win for the 99

[libdem4life]

51. True. Agreed. But not a snowball's chance in hell.

DNC...Do Not Care.

[senz]

57. The entire world could go to hell in a handbasket before she'd withdraw.

She seriously does not give a damn about anything or anyone but winning this election.

[vintx]

63. They have been sold a bunch of lies and they choose to believe

rather than engage in any critical thinking.

And it may cost us all dearly.

[pdsimdars]

32. Man, people here really find some FANTASTIC things. FUNNY !!!!!!

[BernieforPres2016]

33. If Hillary is the nominee you can bet that will be in countless ads by SuperPacs

[winter is coming]

36. It would be a hoot if the transcripts were on the server and a FOIA request will

eventually bring them to light.

[senz]

58. lol, thanks for some levity! Yeah, 'twould be cool.

[cui bono]

38. Unfit for office.

Period.

.

[George II]

40. And what national security secrets are you talking about?

[Vinca]

41. The ones blacked out when they released copies of the emails?

[George II]

43. So then, none.

[Logical]

66. LOL, drunk? Why blacked out? You paying attention? nt

[rhett o rick]

70. I know it's hard but plez dont feed them. They just try to distract. nm

[rhett o rick]

68. .

[hootinholler]

42. !

[kgnu_fan]

46. good one.

[99Forever]

50. BOOM! Goes the dynamite.

We all know why.

[Ruby the Liberal]

52. Oh SNAP!

[Kalidurga]

55. Best thread evah

[mooseprime]

59. this warms my heart,

pinebox...thank you!!!

[Fairgo]

61. On point!

She is not simply the state, she transcends the state.

[vintx]

62. K&R

[Rosa Luxemburg]

64. Priceless

well actually Goldman had a price

[treestar]

69. Fail

The email server was secure - it's a matter of whether it is a government one or not. It was OK when Powell and Condi did it. You're acting like they were public.

What is it about the Bernie campaign? Always thinking they've come up with something clever when you can shoot holes in it from a mile away.

[The Midway Rebel]

71. Ouch!

Meme is awesome!

[SoLeftIAmRight]

73. WOW

they write themselves it seems

[tomm2thumbs]

74. SuperDelegates should be thinking long and hard about their choices

the ease at which the arrows will be slung,
and the ease at which they'll hit their mark, is eye-opening

shooting fish in a barrel, basically

and we don't know the half of what the other side is willing to do/say/show, but I will bet there is a hundred-thousand times more damaging stuff all cocked and loaded for the Fall than we'd ever even imagine. And it's not the fact that they are lobbing the attacks, it's the fact that much of it will stick because someone's untrustworthy numbers are in the toilet, and fit the narrative.
