Hillary Clinton Compares Barack Obama to George W. Bush? 'Artful Smears' indeed





Flashback on how Hillary campaigned against President Obama -- just so we are all clear how she rolls, especially when she starts accusing Sanders of disloyalty to Obama, and claiming his ideas are out of reach.




"Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it."
Winston Churchill

...they are both male! There are probably many comparisons. Still, I don't believe Hillary Clinton believes their ideas and policies are equitable.

6. I was against NAFTA before I was for it... or is it the other way around?

I can't tell whether it was a flip, a flop, or just a mid-flippity-flop

“Now, I could stand up here and say, ‘Let’s just get everybody together. Let’s get unified,'" Clinton said to laughter of the crowd.

"The skies will open, the light will come down, celestial choirs will be singing and everyone will know we should do the right thing and the world will be perfect,” she said dryly as the crowd erupted.

“Maybe I’ve just lived a little long, but I have no illusions about how hard this is going to be," Clinton continued. "You are not going to wave a magic wand to make special interests disappear."




What a fucking inspiration this lady is.

:gag: I need to take my prozac before listening to her speak else I might not make it out the other side.

9. And if she is President the "TPP" will be revisited and Passed in a New Form...

As I post this Madelyn Albright is on MSNBC (Tweety's Warmup for Repug Debate) supporting Hillary and that's after Hillary praised Henry Kissinger in the Dem Debate Thursday night.

Hillary will Blame Congress for for Passing the TPP while she will claim she is against it....but, there was just nothing she could do because it was already done under Obama.

should have free tuition. Former SOS M. Albright was sitting behind Clinton.

The wind must be getting ready to change again.

This is the kind of negative campaigning Hillary does. They are already doing horrendously deceptive push polling in Nevada.
