HEALTH ADVISORY: Do NOT listen to Hillary spew lies while driving in Los Angeles rush hour traffic

Last edited Fri Jan 15, 2016, 12:04 AM - Edit history (1)

omgz........... my heart almost popped!

Listening to Rachel Maddow let Hillary TRIPLE DOWN and continue to spout lies about single-payer and Bernie while driving home amongst stupid drivers is too much to take!

I was already yelling at my radio when a guy went out of turn at a 4-way stop sign, I mean the person in front of him had just gone and he went right behind them, so he got an extra dose of anger and cursing. Then some idiot decided it was okay that she couldn't make it across the intersection before the light turned red and was blocking me from being able to go on my green light so I had to yell even more. Then something else stupid happened that I can't remember.

I cannot believe how Rachel just allowed Hillary to go on and on and on with maybe one feeble attempt at setting the record straight. I guess she thinks she's Chuck Todd or David Gregory now. What a disappointment.

And Hillary... ugh... what an ugly soul. She said she will do whatever it takes to win the nomination. No shit. No humility at all, no if the people choose me or will have me. Blech.

I thought she pretty much questioned that path but not to Hillary's face, but after she left the building. Not sure what the rules are during an interview. Even Chuck Todd had a problem with earlier attacks, I never saw him so animated about people talking to him and making those claims - asI recall, he was so dumbstruck after talking to a spokesperson, he shoulted at a woman who was supposed to talk about tonight's debate - he said, they call that a negative ad, I will show them an negative ad, try Rubio about Christie - now that is a negative ad - or some such comment.

this could signal that the media honeymoon with the Clinton campaign is over.

I thought the 5 months for $20 offer was great, especially getting it right before driving 5.5 hours north and 5.5 hours back home again over the holidays. Now though, I'm not so sure. Heh.

Even if you had been listening to classical music that would be a terrible situation that could make your veins pop. But, listening to someone tell a blatant lie and it seems she is somewhat getting away with it has to be the worst pile on ever.

It's a right-wing "centrist" MSM outlet, playing the Third-Way game as opposed to FOX, which plays the boogeyman role in the same game.

It's 24/7/52 right-wing propaganda. All of it.

It's the CBS radio/traffic channel and there are many times it's all Rump or snark about Obama.

Thank gawd that there is some kind of game on either 710 or 980...or some babbling meathead.

I think these BOO! attacks on Healthcare are the 2016 version of the 3AM Phonecall!

When times get tough, she gets negative and nasty.

and watch when convenient. We stopped after coming to the conclusion she was more interested in her paycheck and being on TV than, what we believed, were her principles. Very disappointing.

I first realized this when she told Caire McCaskill to run for president. Can you imagine Claire Mccaskill running for President??? She would pick Harold Ford Jr for Vice President, no doubt.

and thought Rachel did great. You didn't get a chance to see her face but she looked fairly incredulous at times when Clinton spouted off -- you could tell that Maddow was thinking. "Really??? Are you SURE you wanna be saying that?!"

Maddow is absolutely in Bernie's camp, no doubt whatsoever, and I am thankful she allowed Clinton to bather on and let us see in depth the bullshit she was peddling.
