#28 Nothing will solidify the finally fractured republican machine more than their white hot hatred of Hillary. IMO voting for Hillary would be handing the presidency to the republicans, it would be the dirtiest general election in our lifetime. At least with Obama they’d have to pretend to be civilized or risk being called racists.

There is a lot of great video of the Clintons talking up Saddam’s WMDs during the first Clinton administration too. Here is one of my favorites…

Too many people think Bush was the one who started this – it wasn’t.

If you search YouTube you will fine much much more.

It’s impressive that they can nail someone without mentioning her name, but they could have deleted ‘the’.

I drove around Pasadena for several months with a sheet of letter-size paper in the rear window of my car. It said:

WORSE
THAN
NIXON

Some gave me thumbs up, and others the shaft – yes: like the press once gave a certain candidate.

Sometimes brevity can be too much of a good thing in these situations. However, much agreed with #2.

2 things…

It only works because of a paucity of female candidates.

With a comma you could even take out ‘for’, so it’d only be “She voted, war.”

*Eyeroll* Yes, I know she’s a woman, but unlike the literal police in this comment section, no, I don’t reserve that particular catch phrase just for men. I’m sure you don’t, either.

few know what Obama’s policies are or Clinton’s or McCain’s policies are.

If only there were some way to say… look things up on the internet. You know, some kind of… I guess you’d call it a search engine, yeah, something like that.

[shrugs]

But I guess I will just have to remain ignorant until someone invents one.

i think if you were deleting “for,” a dash would be more effective than a comma.

Anyone else notice the word GOOD placed just to the left of the word WAR… Kinda creepy…

Mike, gender confusion is not what got you disemvowelled.

Since we’re on the subject, roughly speaking: could you please look up “literal” before you use it again?

The word good in the background adds balance to the message. Excellent observation!

I am Clin-Ton. As overlord, all will kneel trembling before me and obey my brutal commands. [crosses arms] End communication.

Senator McCain, why should people vote for you instead of Clinton? It makes no difference which one of us you vote for. Either way, your planet is doomed. DOOMED!

I don't understand why we have to build a ray gun to aim at a planet I never even heard of. Don't blame me, I voted for Kucinich.
