Since when does anyone need to list "Accomplishments" while SOS? What does that even mean? Is there a quota? Who defines Accomplishment? How many "accomplishments" are considered enough?

This is a right wing meme. It is a made up attack-point designed to minimize her expertise. There was a recent article regarding the RW plan of action: to attempt to attack her because on her qualifications, experience, and expertise.

It is a ridiculous meme. I am surprised Democrats would fall for it. The enemy of my enemy is my friend? How low are we willing to go to attack Hillary before this is over?

If you want an "accomplishment:" She did her job. She worked her ass off to gain back some of the goodwill we lost internationally while Bush/Cheney were in office.

My reply 11 below summarizes what a group supporting her says. See what you think. merrily Jul 2015 #18

She's given a lot of women's rights speeches worldwide, presumably supported women's rights groups Erich Bloodaxe BSN Jul 2015 #2

Thing is, would it have passed without her speech? merrily Jul 2015 #4

Yes, I discerned that immediately, but I summarized it below anyway. See what you think. merrily Jul 2015 #12

You're obviously more focused and less ADHD than I am tularetom Jul 2015 #23

On a closer look, it looks like something that may have been prepared by the Hillary campaign. merrily Jul 2015 #11

Political discussion often seems like an attack to those who disagree. Thank you for deleting. merrily Jul 2015 #22

Not necessarily. Evergreen Emerald Jul 2015 #24

Gee, levey, that's the most simplistic analysis of our country's forieng policy I've ever seen. Nitram Jul 2015 #35

False. A simple question is not a meme of any kind. It's a question. merrily Jul 2015 #14

Apparently the Clinton campaign feels the need to list her "accomplishments" tularetom Jul 2015 #19

I did pare it down. merrily Jul 2015 #26

Correct. The ulterior motive was clear the moment I read it. lamp_shade Jul 2015 #21

Actually, I was trying to fact check an article from KOS that was extremely critical of Hillary. merrily Jul 2015 #27

I think I struck a nerve. lamp_shade Jul 2015 #28

"Please stop trolling" does not mean you are calling the person a troll? Nitram Jul 2015 #33

Why are you involving yourself? merrily Jul 2015 #34
