1. Yes everyone is getting played by the media.

And most people went right along with it.

[whatchamacallit]

2. Yup, moment to moment playing it anyway they can to help Hill

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

3. Is this one of those "definition of 'is'" Clinton moments?

[msanthrope]

9. No.....it means the BS campaign didn't read past the headline. Not sure how this

helps him....

[blue neen]

4. What's your point?

.

[whatchamacallit]

6. They contradict themselves a day later

[blue neen]

7. Ok.

Thanks.

[msanthrope]

8. No....it's why the BS campaign needed to read more than the headline. Nt

[CrowCityDem]

5. This is why...

it's important for people talking in public to do a little reading and make sure they know what they're talking about. If all you do is read headlines, you're never going to know what the story actually is.

14. "We're not saying he isn't qualified, he just doesn't read."

Everyone knows what you're saying here, and everyone knows what Hillary was saying when she said "it raises a lot of questions" We're not stupid.

[grasswire]

10. hey, it's a good day for Hillary when people aren't writing/talking...

...about her high crimes and misdemeanors.

So I suggest we don't get sucked into the media stupidity, and just keep hitting her on the Foundation, on the server, on the ways she has betrayed Obama.......and mention the word Panama a lot.

[msanthrope]

11. So now Bernie 's not at fault for not reading past the headline? Nt

[kristopher]

15. The article said the same thing

[msanthrope]

16. Please provide the quote. Nt

[chascarrillo]

17. Here it is.

SCARBOROUGH: But do you think he is qualified? And do you think he is able to deliver on the things he is promising to all these Democratic voters?

CLINTON: Well, let me put it this way, Joe. I think that what he has been saying about the core issue in his whole campaign doesn’t seem to be rooted in an understanding of either the law or the practical ways you get something done. And I will leave it to voters to decide who of us can do the job that the country needs, who can do all aspects of the job, both on the economic domestic issues and on national security and foreign policy.

In other words, "No."

[msanthrope]

18. Um, no. At no point does she say he is "not qualified" or "unqualified."

And FYI....if you have to use the phrase "in other words" it means you don't have the words.

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

20. Honey, it is called reading comprehension...

Any sane human being can watch that discussion and will take away based on the content of Clinton's answers that she doesn't feel he is qualified.

But you better thicken that skin, because Clinton kept poking and poking Bernie Bear with a stick with her artful smears and innuendo and now the gloves are off and he is gonna strike back Brooklyn style... She is gonna feel the bern in New York.

[msanthrope]

22. calling female posters honey? yeah there's no sexism in that. nt

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

23. How would I know your gender?

I'm gay I use words like that for everyone... No need to make it something it isn't

[msanthrope]

24. From my username. Nt

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

25. Google says your name means "a person who dislikes humankind and avoids human society." so...

so.... still not sure how I could reach any conclusion on gender.

[msanthrope]

26. Look at my username, again. Nt
