Question for Hillary supporters: Why did she meet with Richard Mellon Scaife?

[XemaSab]

Should she have met with Scaife? If Obama and not Hillary had met with Scaife, what would your reaction have been? :shrug:

Thanks.

[Cooley Hurd]

1. Senator Clinton thought the question was HILLARIOUS whe asked by KO...

...I didn't get it. Why was the question funny?:shrug:

[islandmkl]

5. because the joke is on US!!...

after all the defending most of us did for the Clintons during ALL OF THE 90's...

she is hanging with one of the main supporters (especially financially) of the efforts to bring Bill Clinton's presidency down.

Yeah, what a f***ing joke, all right.

[shadowknows69]

14. Because when she aint got shit she cackles

[democracy1st]

16. Richard Mellon Scaife & the Clintons set Barack Obama up

Listen to rightwing radio now Obama bashing 24/7. Listen to Fox Obama bashing around the clock

2. Obama is willing to meet with Ahmadinejad; Carter with Hamas. I think HRC can meet with Scaife.

[AlCzervik]

7. he endorsed her so your comparison is incorrect.

[BobbyVan]

9. Wrong

Ahmed Yousef, the chief political adviser to the Hamas prime minister, said: "We like Mr. Obama and we hope he will win the election. He has a vision to change America."

13. and his newspaper endorsed her so once again, Fail. Deal with it, a disgusting

piece of shit that lives to hurt democrats gave your Candidate the thumbs up.

[BobbyVan]

18. Yeah, and two confirmed terrorists (Ayers and that Hamas dude) are supporting Obama

I'll take Scaife any day over people with blood on their hands.

[XemaSab]

12. So Obama saying he would theoretically meet with the elected president of another country

is the same as Hillary meeting with a tabloid publisher who has published horrible smears against her and her daughter? :shrug:

Interesting.

[BobbyVan]

22. Horrible smears vs. the Clintons is nothing compared to denying the Holocaust

[SoCalDem]

3. Craven politics and a possible endorsement and some moolah nt

[eleny]

4. To convert him to Hillaryism

[joeybee12]

6. She said it was so counterintuitive she had to do it...I guess meeting

with him, right wing piece of shit that he is, is different from accepting the endorsemnet of Sam Nunn, another right-wing piece of shit. Yup, in Kool-Aid world, everything is different, because Bots are the only ones with access to "truth."

8. Same reason Obama went on Fox. It's called reaching beyond your base.

10. I sometimes think the 'vast rt wng conspiracy' of the 90's was a con

It gave both sides a foil to help them gain momentum towards a single goal of serving the interests of the business community over the common citizen.

In effect, Scaife has long been a cohort of the Clintons, much as one actor in a play is the bad guy, the other actor the good guy.

The fact they had to end the smokescreen of divisiveness in trying to shore up Hillary's chance proves how desperate the DLC/RNC co conspirators have become.

11. After all the outrage over Obama's pastor (not to mention Bill Clinton's)...

... holding forth with anger over injustice in America, let's take a look at Hillary's close association with the National Prayer Breakfast and the Fellowship. All that, and now she's cozying up with the worst of the worst in terms of wielding his religious fanatacism and his millions to subvert the Constitution of the United States of America.

That vast right-wing conspiracy you so correctly identified was contagious, Hillary, and now you need to go into quarantine until you recover.

[CoffeeCat]

15. She met with him to get his newspaper's endorsement...

...and the big story here is that Richard Mellon Scaife is a right-wing, neocon, warmongering
nutjob---and after meeting Hillary he determined that her agenda was more simpatico with Scaife's
than was Obama's.

That's what should run a chill down every Dem spine.

The Clintons have been folded into the neocon elite fray.

When Scaife attacked Clinton, the neocons were centralized in the Republican party. As
the neocons amassed power, many Dems sold out--in order to get in on the game.

The mutation has been complete. Dems AND Republicans now comprise the neocon elite.

Notice how Limbaugh used to attack the Clintons 24/7? Now, he's ordering his listeners
to vote for her in the Dem primaries--because the whole lot of them would rather run against
a fellow neocon.

The handwriting on the wall....is in big, neon letters.

17. As is often with your posts...

this is OP worthy

[Perry Logan]

19. It proves they're all Reptoids, working together.

[MethuenProgressive]

20. For the reason she gave Keith Obamamann last night. You watched, didn't you?

You're welcome.

[XemaSab]

24. Laughing like the wicked witch of the west?

Not a response.

[MethuenProgressive]

25. So you did watch, and are just playing dumb? Why do you want folks to think you are dumb?

You are playing, Wright?

[XemaSab]

26. Okay, I'll stop playing dumb

She laughed, and said something about Scaife having had a conversion experience, then she said some other crap that didn't make a lot of sense.

How about you tell the class what she said? :shrug:

[PBS Poll-435]

21. So they could swap dirt on Obama, of course...

Duh...


:eyes:

[SeaLyons]

23. Didn't you catch that answer on KO last night??

She answered it beautifully. Surely you were watching KO!!
