I don't get the right wingers' rancor over Clinton. She is basically the same as they are: a corporate tool and a war monger. What's not to love?

"Why is it ok that Hillary Clinton is a 1%er but liberals had problems with Mitt being one?"

Easy! She stole her money just like a good little progressive should. Mitt had the audacity to earn his.

What you don't get is that not all right wingers are Karl Rove Republicans.

Most modern conservatives, especially TEA Party conservatives, don't want to be going off to war to be the world's police. We want out of Iraq and the rest of the ME. We're sick and tired of sending blood and treasury over there.

As far as corporations go, we want the market to decide if they win or lose. The Clintons want to pick which corporations win and lose just like the Karl Rove Republicans.

The "old white guys" in the Republican party you progressives seem to dislike so much are the establishment government bureaucrats who want to pick and choose who wins and who loses and how much power and money it will benefit them, just like the Clintons and Obamas.

At least the right wingers have groups, like the TEA Party, that oppose these inside the beltway establishment types. It's why you hear Rove and his minions always blasting them. I'm not seeing that on the left. What I see is "Bush is a war criminal who lied to get us oil, but when the Clintons were telling us those same lies and Hillary voted for the war, that's ok, because she's not like them."

This thread is so dumb! It might have just said:

"Why is it ok that Hillary Clinton is blonde but liberals had problems with Mitt being one?"

Liberals don't have a problem with Mitt being a 1%er. We have a problem with him being a bad governor who only caters to the top 1%.

Hillary Clinton is a 1%er who looks out for the middle class.

They are not the same are they?

I'll give better odds of her having one over Michele Obama having one.

Obama got to where he is because he's a NWO/Black C.I.A. operative and so are Bill & Hillary.

You are a tool box. You and 10's of millions of others.

When I say Black in front of Obama I don't mean his color. I mean Black like the Black Budget of the Pentagon. Meaning certain compartmentalized structures with-in the C.I.A. operate people like him. And not necessarily known to the majority of C.I.A. agents.

The fact that we're probably looking at another Clinton-Bush election and Presidency in a country with over 300 million people in it shows just how artificial and corrupt this whole system is. It's a complete and controlled farce. And yet there are sheep arguing about and defending these "candidates" already.

So pathetic.

Not known to the majority of CIA agents, but you're on top of it! Glad we have someone to keep us informed!

The founders were hoping for citizen legislators not career politicians and certainly not political family dynasties.

You will not find me checking any boxes for Jeb Bush.

Heck, I'm a Texan who has never once voted for Perry, and he was on our ballots forever.
