Another RW chain letter...and my response

[SHRED]

I got this from a politically lost "friend".
He gets these chain letters and forwards them on as fact.
I told him how to check them but apparently his hatred for anything Democratic blinds him.

Here is the letter and my response.

Two or three false letters, pasted together, doesn't make any of it true.
What a load of crap.

People can hate Clinton but outright bullshit spreading only hurts credibility of the rightwing.

The whole thing:

Maybe do the right thing and inform who sent you this that it is all bullshit?

;)

Now for some reality:

1. I find it disgusting that the same idiots

have no trouble with Bush's* desertion, or, break in service. That is beyond offensive to me as a veteran. Too bad the lapdog media let that pass without mention. :(

[gratuitous]

2. Good response except for one thing

This letter doesn't "hurt" the credibility of the rightwing, it typifies it.

[underpants]

3. I keep forgetting-Was Clinton ever actually convicted of anything?

He was found in contempt by Judge Susan Weber Wright but he was never convicted of anything...right?

[FlaGranny]

4. Okay, but I think

I would have added: Are you aware that Clinton has not been president for five years? When are you going to hold the present president responsible for his own actions?

[chat_noir]

5. SHRED, appreciate you posting this crap...NOT!

Is this your email signature in your response to your RW friends?


NOTICE: Due to Presidential Executive Orders, the National Security Agency may have read this email without warning, warrant, or notice, and certainly without probable cause. They may do this without any judicial or legislative oversight. You have no recourse nor protection save to call for the impeachment of the current President.

6. Hillary should not run for President

The whole campaign would be about "Do you want another 4 years of Bill and Hillary running the White House?" All the dirt about Bill Clinton would get dragged up again and again.

I see Hillary playing a major role in the Senate. Majority leader maybe?

[SHRED]

7. I don't get your point

What are you trying to say?
