And wasn't there that thing about her getting money cuz she voted yes for the Iraq war....

[Avalux]

1. But....Republicans are her enemies.

BTW, Hillary gave Bush the authorization to go to war because of that money, and parroted the neocon lies.

[k8conant]

2. "I have no time for people who are partisan for the sake of being partisan"

says Hillary Clinton!

[SusanCalvin]

3. O.M.G. nt

[CentralCoaster]

26. Watch, she looks really TERRIFIC and the crowd, WOW, they're going CRAZY for her.

Hillary looks and sounds SOOOO presidential.

The crowd looks like they're going to burst with excitement.

[GreatGazoo]

37. I love the guy to her right who does a Rodney Dangerfield with his collar when she says it

[Ash_F]

4. Well, I guess this is a pretty solid argument that she doesn't just follow the polls

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

5. What in the name of baby Jesus does she think thanking Dubya will do!

SMDH!

[SusanCalvin]

8. That's my question. Is a puzzlement. nt

[Ino]

21. Well, she has us in the bag...

Party Unity, ya know... because she's better than the Repuke nominee, so who ya gonna vote for?

Now she wants to get some Republican voters on her side, show them she's a better Repuke than their guys. Show them she'll work with them, all non-partisan like, to "get things done."

What those things are, we will not like. But it will be tooooo late.

6. that's because that isn't what she said

she said, in clear, unambiguous terms, that she trusted Bush's word because of the way he behaved in regards to the funding (having promised it and not reneging). That is exactly what she thanked him for in that clip. Again, the fact you apparently can't understand clear English doesn't make her a liar.

[SusanCalvin]

7. Don't think anyone said she was a liar.

Just expressed astonishment she would even bring him up.

[dsc]

9. It is a fair point for her to make that she helped get money for NY

from Bush.

[SusanCalvin]

11. Of course, but

she could have done that without verbally hugging him. The phrase "federal government" comes to mind.

I don't really care, especially as I don't want her to win anyway. I just find it odd.

[Ash_F]

16. Thank him for doing his job?

OK.

[delrem]

24. Actually, she scolded "partisan" folk who don't gung ho support her effusive thanks to GWB.

That was the core of her message.
But I'd like to see a link to this video that isn't tied to carmencita l. miranda's facebook account.
That's because I want a link that's fully backed by the supportive context, so I can know more about where the snippet comes from.

Otherwise, yah, this snippet sure does fit the Hillary Rodham Clinton pattern.
Hard to deny that.

[Bonobo]

10. Well we now know how that money was earned -the quid pro quo of it...

Hillary EARNED that money with her vote for the AUMF against Iraq vote.

Last night on MSNBC, Chris Matthews quizzed the former secretary of state and NY senator about why she supported the war in Iraq, and Bernie Sanders didn’t. And she said they came to the issue from different perspectives. “Why was Bernie Sanders right and you were wrong?” Matthews asked. “What do you think was in him that allowed him to see what you couldn’t see?” Clinton said:

Clinton: Look, that was a mistake and I’ve said it was a mistake. And I had good friends like Vice President Biden who were with me, and I had good friends who were on the other side. And I think part of what certainly influenced me is after 9/11 you know I went to New York with Chuck Schumer, the next day, my fellow senator. We were the only plane in the sky and we flew over Ground Zero and we saw the devastation, and we were briefed fully on all of the threats that were still out there.

We get back to Washington I go and see then Senator Byrd, get him to commit to helping New York. Because the first request out of the White House was for 20 billion dollars for the Pentagon, for Homeland Security. Not a penny for New York. So I went and said, Look we have to get money for New York.

When I went to the White House, there were about four of us senators, the two from Virginia, the two of us from New York And I knew that the Republicans in the White House and in the Senate didn’t want to rebuild New York or at least they weren’t willing to put money into it. So I’m sitting there in the Oval Office, and Bush says to me, ‘What do you need?’ And I said, ‘I need $20 billion to rebuild, you know, New York,’ and he said, ‘You got it.’ And he was good to his word.

So my experience with him on something of great import to our country was positive. Because literally, that same day, I get back to the Capitol, and the Republicans are trying to take that money away. We kept calling the White House, Bush kept saying, “I gave them my word, I’m going to stick with it.”

12. I wouldn't thank Dubya for anything

other than leaving.
He lets the damn thing, than gives NYC money for the insurance job that took down 9/11 and made the new owner rich.
And she thanks the bass turd.
She really needs to be on the RepubliCON Party, she's no Democrat!

[hedda_foil]

13. This is no misstep, and I don't think it was aimed at NY voters exactly.

She's signaling something to a set of donors. Which set I don't know. Of course this is strictly imho.
Howdja like mah new hat, boys?

[Autumn]

14. NY would have gotten the money anyway, Federal disaster relief.

Strange

[EndElectoral]

15. So is she saying she voted for the IWR because Dubya promised her 20B?

[CorporatistNation]

17. Who Knows? Probably... You Know She Has A Propensity For...........

TRUTH... not....

[beam me up scottie]

18. Well she did say Iraq was a business opportunity so who knows how much she made?

I doubt she supported Bush's war just to help New York, that's just the excuse du jour.

[delrem]

25. Haliburton. Deep level insider trading on companies accessing no-bid war contracts.

This is hundreds of billions of dollars, and that's just the icing.

If anything is "satanic", then war profiteering is, and war profiteering on the scale launched by the US "War on Terror" breaks new ground. Hillary Clinton brings hell on earth to the countries her war profiteering backers destroy, then plunder.

I oppose her and what she stand for to the very bottom of my heart.

19. Oh the Horrors of Governmental Officials Working Across Party Lines in a Time of National Emergency

some of you have lost your mind. Did any of You condemn Governor Chris Christie when he reached out to Obama after Hurricane Sandy. Care for some TEA to go with your new PARTY?

[beedle]

20. Working across lines that resulted in

a war based on lies, and the deaths of many hundreds of thousands of innocent people?

Fuck that nonsense .. take your 'party lines' and give them an appointment with the International Court of Justice.

[beam me up scottie]

22. That's ancient history, haven't you heard?

At least that's where they want it to be, in the past but the creation of ISIS was also a result of that war, along with millions dead, maimed, orphaned, displaced and still suffering.

[Generic Other]

35. Hillary's trifecta?

This whole addled rationalization makes me sick. How many hours of brainstorming did it take to come up with this steaming pile of revisionism? I am starting to feel like I did back when they were feeding us yellow cake and calling it devil's food!

[Kalidurga]

27. Do you really think GW would risk not funding rebuilding NYC after 9/11?

Really???? Oh my.

[Karmadillo]

23. Remember, that's her brother-in-law from another mother. Can't talk bad about family.

[kcjohn1]

28. The worst part of that is it was calculated

And written part of her speech. It was not ad-lipping.

Just curious what their thought process was and what they hope to get out of it.

[Armstead]

33. Show how strong she is....dunno. She seems defensive and angry about it.

Like her opponent and his supporters were against helping NY after 9-11.

[DemocracyDirect]

29. That seems like an attack ad waiting to happen from the Repubs. Well one in particular.

Not so good.

[ciaobaby]

30. Well that as just weird.

I really don't know who this women is and now I think I don't want to know.
What was that for anyway ? I think the crowd was confused too.

[bkkyosemite]

31. What I noticed was the........pause.......after she said it......and crickets.

[Armstead]

32. Why is she always so defensive and angry?....Chill Hill

[XemaSab]

34. The people behind her looked like they were paid to be there

Blank faces, weak applause, no enthusiasm.

[SwampG8r]
