1. LOL!

[ugdude]

2. Her healthcare policy is worse than Bush's

she wants to mandate healthcare by garnishing wages? Thats so fucking dumb and will bleed the middle class dry.

3. do you have health insurance now? I do, and I pay a portion of it

What the hell are you blowing up now?

[ugdude]

5. I can CHOOSE to buy health insurance. It isnt mandated

THATS THE POINT

4. What an incredibly insulting comparison

More dirty politics as usual from Clinton. :eyes:

7. That is what bothered me the most. You can critisize your opponent

but to liken your opponent to probably one of the worst Presidents we have had is outrageous

I don't know what will happen, but I do not think this will help her position at all

If she claims more experience, and sites what she has done over Obama, fine, but to compare him to someone that she rubber stamped his war agenda would be laughable if people were not being killed because of that policy

13. where were you the other day when the post came up about Obama

comparing Clinton to Bush? Were you just as outraged? Or do you save your outrage for "anything Clinton."

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

15. If you knew anything about me

you would know that I have criticized bullshit posts from all sides. Save it for someone else.

[Evergreen Emerald]

16. did you? Good. Then why highlight this statement and show outrage

when Obama has done the same thing?

[bigtree]

6. She made a specific point about how Obama is mostly unknown to most Americans

like Bush was.

9. She knows exactly what she is doing, just like her surrogates alluded

to Obama's Muslim background, or his dope smoking

If she wants to campaign on her experience, then exploit that, but this will go against her

8. Not on policies, silly

The comparison was made on the basis of relatively "untested" on the national and international stage when seeking the Presidency. Of course that can be argued against by Obama supporters, but Hillary was not talking about ideology. She was not calling him Republican in any way.

10. She compared him to bush as Bill Clinton compared Obama to Jessie Jackson

She knows exactly the controversy and the implications

[rocktivity]

11. Accusing others of what you're guilty of

Is as Bush-like as you can get!

:rofl:

12. Hillary is the closest Democratic candidate to Bush

And has been for the past year.

Bush WANTS Hillary to be the Democratic president if the Republican doesn't win, because he knows she will never investigate him and his crimes, will not undo the mess in Iraq, and will generally serve the same major global interests he has.

She is the establishment candidate.

14. It's good to know that comparing someone to Bush is still considered

a damaging attack.

Can't wait to see how that works on McCain.
