How can anyone support a big-time habitual and dishonest liar for President? Hillary.

[imagine2015]

“I voted to save the auto industry,” Clinton said during the debate. “He voted against the money that ended up saving the auto industry.”

Left unmentioned was an earlier Sanders vote in favor of the bailout. The vote that Clinton referenced was on legislation to release funds for a Wall Street bailout, some of which were instead used to help auto manufacturers.

“What I did not vote for was a middle-class bailout for the crooks on Wall Street,” Sanders told his audience there.


But Hilary didn't have a hard time voting to bailout her pals and funders on Wall Street

[Punkingal]

1. I didn't...I voted for Bernie.

Proudest vote in my 65 years of living.

[WDIM]

2. The bigger the lie the more people will believe it

That is exactly what the Bankster bailout was a huge lie to steal from the tax payers

[Mufaddal]

3. The answer is simple

[NurseJackie]

4. That's what happens when someone is "inflexible" and can't make difficult decisions or ...

... take hard choices for the sake of ideological purity. "Purity above all" is no way to govern effectively.

(But it's great for soap.)

[imagine2015]

19. Difficult decisions lke supporting job destroying trade agreements and handouts to Wall Street?

Those would not be a difficult decisions for Bernie Sanders. He'd voted NO!

[NurseJackie]

20. What may seem to be the "obvious" choice to some isn't necessarily the best or wisest choice.

It's very difficult to be an ideologue and practical and wise at the same time. It's also not a very realistic, practical or expedient way to accomplish much of anything. I prefer having a candidate that can look forward and who can anticipate the consequences and who's not afraid to make difficult decisions. Being inflexible and myopic is not a virtue.

5. It's simply mind-boggling. n/t

[Shadowflash]

6. Maybe she was grazed

by a bullet while evading sniper fire and didn't come out as unscathed as she figured?

I don't think she would LIE about anything.

7. So you won't be voting for Hillary in the GE?

Did I get that right?

[Herman4747]

10. Are you fearful that your beloved candidate is too crooked for people? n/t

[rock]

11. So you won't be voting for Hillary in the GE?

?

[Herman4747]

13. I will be.

As should all voters living in toss-up, battleground states. Still, though...



...either way I lose.

[rock]

14. I congratulate you

You understand politics!

[PonyUp]

24. I won't. I'll write Bernie in. The primary's not over, so pffft on your loyalty pledge. n/t

[rock]

27. Here, I'd better make a note so I don't forget

If Hillary is the Dem candidate, mark +1 for Bernie.

[PonyUp]

37. Yep. +1 for Bernie.

[imagine2015]

17. So I take you don't have a problem voting for an habitual liar and dishonest politician.

Did I get that right?

In fact, you'd rather vote for a dishonest politician than an honest and truthful candidate like Bernie.

Did I also get that right?

[rock]

22. You assume way too many "facts" that are not in evidence

So your question does not have sufficient footing. And of course I'm still interested: you won't be voting for Hillary in the GE?

[Kittycat]

28. I take it you won't be voting for Bernie in the GE?

[rock]

31. If he wins the primary election I certainly will (without the slightest pause)

Any Democrat (even a temporary one) is much better than any Republican.

[PonyUp]

38. Hillary is a Democrat in name only. nt

[rock]

40. A much better case can be made that Bernie is not a Democrat

He readily admits he's a Socialist, but tags Democratic onto it and runs under that label. I personally don't pay any attention to the labels (unless they're Republicans who always run true to form) but to their actions, plans, and stances on issues.

[Persondem]

8. So what she said was exactly TRUE. There is a load of dishonesty in this OP but Clinton is not

responsible for it.

From the OP - "The vote that Clinton referenced was on legislation to release funds for a Wall Street bailout, some of which were instead used to help auto manufacturers."

[Waiting For Everyman]

15. It depends on what the definition of "is" is.

(to quote Bill Clinton)

[Persondem]

33. Nice try at deflection. Her quote was accurate.

[Waiting For Everyman]

35. So was Bill's.

[Persondem]

36. Which has ZERO to do with the issue at hand.

.. and mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. So there.

9. You Mean Donald Trump Right?

[AzDar]

12. This vid should really be updated to reflect her near-daily additions...

[BernieforPres2016]

16. Thom Hartmann referred to that Clinton statement as classic David Brock "oppo research"

that she had ready to dump on Bernie in the debate. Hartmann and his two panelists said it was a lie but Bernie is too polite to call her a liar.

[Avalux]

18. Fear. I'm convinced that's what is driving most who condone Hillary's horrid behavior.

They are terrified of a Republican becoming president and see her as the only viable option.

I read posts by some Hillary supporters who see absolutely nothing wrong with her ties to big money, her pro-fracking stance, her decidely neocon tendencies.

It's mind-boggling.

[Kittycat]

29. Fear. The gateway drug to conservatism.

[PeteSelman]

21. Because a Cruz or Rubio would be far, far worse.

Not a ringing endorsement for sure but it is practical.

I'm voting Bernie in the primary.

[840high]

23. I'm voting Bernie.

[randome]

25. I think the most objective view on what Clinton said is that it's kinda-sorta true.

To call it a 'lie' is just as much a stretch as to say that Sanders didn't care about the auto industry.

This is a campaign. If Sanders and his supporters can't handle this mild level of back-and-forth, they won't last a day with the GOP.

26. One shouldn't be a patsy for opposition politicians

It's important to evaluate claims and charges on their own merits. Whether accusing Bernie of being soft on gun control, of having no role in the various civil rights movements because he spent most of his life in an all-white all-liberal state, whether voting against the bill that would lead to the bailout of the auto industry, whether having sympathy for Soviet communism, or something else, we have to take it into account that those claims come from those who oppose him.

The same goes for Hillary. Up until now, Hillary was regarded as a reliable, liberal politician (not as liberal as Bernie, but nonetheless liberal). We should be intelligent enough to know that the accusations against her by her opponents are very biased in their presentation.

It takes a little bit of intelligence to look at information through an independent lens, but I bet you can do it. That's what Einstein did with all his amazing work.

[Thinkingabout]

30. Easy, she is the most qualified candidate running for president.

[Beacool]

32. Since I don't agree with the premise of your post, I will vote for Hillary joyfully.

[bigwillq]

34. I will be voting for Bernie. (nt)
