Debbie WS is smacking down Andrea about Clinton

[riversedge]

marine story. poor andrea she looked shocked. Debbie said rather pointed--why are we talking about this!!

[riversedge]

1. DWS says using it as an illustration to explain the changes women

have gone though last decades related to military service.

[HassleCat]

2. You mean the sniper fire thing?

It's going to come up sooner or later. Might as well get it out of the way now.

[Motown_Johnny]

5. No. A different lie

In this one she tried to join the marines

[HassleCat]

9. Oh, that one

Yeah. I don't know of any recruiter who would turn away someone who was 27 years old, with a college degree. Same principle applies. Might as well get it out of the way.

[Hortensis]

21. HRC's friends long ago confirmed that she looked into it,

including one who died a quarter century ago so obviously has no dog in this fight. I think we should believe her and them IF we're going to form opinions about this at all, not a bunch of speculations from people who did not know her and were not there.

As for Andrea Mitchell, I thought she'd decided it was time to start the standard Washington sucking up to the probable next president. Was she really that bad, or was Wasserman Schultz just aggressively swatting at a right-wing attempts to develop a "Marinesgate?"

[winter is coming]

49. Except their story doesn't map to hers.

The friends say she did it as some sort of protest for women's lib. If true, she went nowhere with it afterwards... didn't publicize the alleged rejection by the Marines, didn't try to join the Army instead, etc.

When Hillary told the story on the 10th, she mentioned being rejected due to her age, not her gender.

When Bill tells the story, it's the Army she's applied to, and she was purportedly rejected for poor vision, although the Army will take you if your vision is correctable to something like 20/40.

So, three different stories for the same event, and all of them sound fishy. Having personally known a few pathological liars, it wouldn't surprise me if Hillary's been lying about this for years. You would be stunned at the shit that habitual liars will make up. Basically, they live in the moment and the possibility that anyone will check up on their stories holds no weight with them. One of them once explained to me (after I'd caught him in an amazing whopper) that he basically believed he could convince anyone of anything, as long as he could keep talking.

3. I am proud of DWS--she has Hillary's back--and Democrat candidates who are

working to ensure a better life for Americans--and yes she included O'M and Sanders

[AgingAmerican]

44. She has Sanders and O'Malley's backs?

Can you cite a single example? Thanks in advance.

[riversedge]

45. She included all three Dems in her discussion with Andrea.

[MrMickeysMom]

47. I'm sure you are...

What a shock!

[Fred Sanders]

4. Issue discussions must be avoided as all the issues favor the Democrats versus the insane GOP.

Debbie has the back of the entire Democratic Party and members, new and old.

[oasis]

6. Andrea is digging for a "scoop" before she retires.

[Cosmic Kitten]

7. Debbie WS needs to get the boot

Worst DNC leader in our time.

Did she addressed her failure in Kentucky?

[demigoddess]

8. proofread, proofread!!!!

eom

[Cosmic Kitten]

11. lol in/out

[Ferd Berfel]

14. Agree 100%

THe Democratic party will be republican lite until we get a progressive in that position.

For the most part, The current Democratic party IS your daddy's republican party. Get rid of the corporatists.

[TM99]

12. Great to know that DWS can fight for Clinton

over a god damned lie but can't be bothered to actually win enough elections to warrant her keeping the top position.

Why are we talking about this DWS? Because you are backing a woman with a history of telling lies who will get her ass kicked on these and others in the general election if we are unfortunate enough for her to get to it.

[VanillaRhapsody]

32. A "god-damn lie"

can you prove that?

[bahrbearian]

13. Debbie's not a Democrat

[riversedge]

15. Whow. Where do you get off claiming that piece of bull??

[ibegurpard]

16. Oh maybe

When she chases away people from running against her Republican friends in Florida?

[pinebox]

17. She voted to gut SNAP

Enough said.

[hedda_foil]

46. When, where, how did that happen? DWS, not HRC?

Please.

[Dawgs]

18. You're kidding, right?

What has DWS done since being the leader of the DNC that has helped anyone in her party?

Name one thing.

[riversedge]

19. You may not like some of her positions but to say she is not a Democrat is wrong.

[oasis]

20. I'd weigh DWS's Democratic Party credentials against "you know who".

[BootinUp]

23. Bernie's?

[oasis]

25. Just sayin'. (eom)

[bahrbearian]

22. Shes good at getting Republicans seats in the House and the Senate

[oasis]

26. She's also good at getting Hill at seat in the Oval Office.

Behind the desk.

[bahrbearian]

41. so she doesn't use the Democratic process, she uses her position to get what she wants.

Shes not working for us. Shes working for Hillary.

[oasis]

43. Although it matters little what you or I believe on the way DWS

performs her duties, my statement was based on my very strong assumption that Hillary is the Democratic Party nominee.

[VanillaRhapsody]

33. How so?

is she a Democratic Socialist?

[Romulox]

24. That's good ol' *impartial* DWS. By no means is she campaigning for Hillary!

Nosireebob!

[Thinkingabout]

27. So we should kick off the DNC committee anyone who has declared endorsement of the candidates?

[Romulox]

28. She is the chairwoman of a supposedly democratic (small 'd') process. nt

[Thinkingabout]

30. That was not the question, should we kick an committee person off the committee who has openly

endorsed a candidate?

[Romulox]

31. Who are you, the quizmaster?

[Thinkingabout]

40. Just asking an opinion since you stated a so called democratic processes.

[VanillaRhapsody]

34. the process is happening....

the Big D Democrat Clinton has 92% chance of victory...

Perhaps Sanders should have made a few more friends along the way...

[Romulox]

35. DWS is supposed to be impartial--reflecting the will of the primary voters. nt

[VanillaRhapsody]

36. really? Where does it say that? Her job is to get a Democrat elected...

the WILL of the people sure seems to be going Clinton's way...don't you agree?

[Romulox]

37. Um, not a single primary vote has been cast yet.

[VanillaRhapsody]

38. and that changes it how?

Perhaps Sanders shouldn't have shown up to OUR Party so "fashionably late"?

[Thinkingabout]

48. Good, now if she is reflecting the will of the primary voters pushing the candidate with the most

Primary voters then she will be pushing Clinton.

[Armstead]

29. What was her motiovation for wanting to enlist?

Maybe true, but from what I recall at the time there was no compelling reason.

It's not like the time after 9-11 when a lot of people enlisted, or talked about it, in a patriotic response to a real crisis.

After the Viet Nam War, there was no pressing national security crisis to rouse patriotic fervor. She already was on a fast track career path.

Just wonderin'

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

39. Should we all shout Semper Fi!? Or, just have a good skeptical laugh?

[winter is coming]

42. We're talking about this because Clinton put it on the menu.

When you're a proven liar, you can't tell a tall tale and expect people will believe you without proof.
