I knew they did those underhanded, lying, cheating, unethical things during the campaign, but to see just how much the DNC PLANNED this, how organized it apparently was, is really infuriating, and just disheartening that a party that claimed to be the people's party is so machiavellean...Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-24429859874148904852010-01-11T20:05:31.389-05:002010-01-11T20:05:31.389-05:00Amy- There's no doubt that the last election ...Amy- There's no doubt that the last election was steeped in fraud. We saw it at the caucuses, when there was positive proof that Hillary's supporters were locked out of the room, senior citizens were bullied (by physical force in some cases) and tricked into voting for Obama. Ballots were changed, paperwork was stolen or came up "missing" that showed votes for Hillary. And of course, there was the blatant Michigan vote stealing for Obama. It all just made me sick. There was no Democratic process in that election. Obama was chosen by a group of people in the Democratic Party who abused their powers and took away our rights to a fair election.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-91835428874778603552010-01-11T17:14:44.978-05:002010-01-11T17:14:44.978-05:00SF, you are SO right abt this book. There seems t...SF, you are SO right abt this book. There seems to be just enough truth in it - like what Reid said, since he came out apologizing left and right, but they really kept their hands off Obama. Like there wasn't anything to say abt Wright, Ayers, Meeks, Daley, Blogajavich, McClurkin, and on and on...Nothing they could have possibly said abt his complete and utter lack of a paper trail, or how he got the nomination, or ANYTHING. Nope, nothing to see here, folks.<br /><br />And, as we suspected, they are painting Bill in a HORRIBLE light with people like Rev. Whatshisname saying what Reid said wasn't racist but what Bill allegedly said WAS, the affair stuff, all of that. Just ridiculous.<br /><br />Meanwhile, you have someone from the Cato Institute, of all places, writing abt how he MISSES Bil, something he NEVER thought he would say. But the Dems still want to tear him down.<br /><br />I'm sick of them. Honestly.Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-86860537231894113922010-01-11T17:11:00.259-05:002010-01-11T17:11:00.259-05:00Hey, ME -
Yes, he absolutely did abt Clinton. He...Hey, ME -<br /><br />Yes, he absolutely did abt Clinton. He was NEVER enthusiastic abt her.<br /><br />Can I just say, Emily's List just called to get me to give money, saying they only supported Obama after he won the nomination (which we know he didn't), and she did say they were Democrats (I thought Emily's List was bipartisan). Anyway, I told her after the rampant misogyny and sexism int he last election, of which the DNC was very much a part, I would give money to individuals, but not to organizations like this again who support only Dems. She couldn't get off the phone fast enough. (And I have made donations to them in the past, but once they jumped on the Obama bandwagon, hell no.)<br /><br />So, yeah - I'll be doing my homework, too, and I sure as hell will NOT be voting straight Dem. ticket ever again.<br /><br />Still really bugs me these women's organizations aligned with the DNC like the DNC has been SO great for us. Please.<br /><br />It was fraud, wasn't it?? That's what I thought...Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-27276725491538342522010-01-11T11:46:25.409-05:002010-01-11T11:46:25.409-05:00If the DNC knew they were never going to let her g...<i>If the DNC knew they were never going to let her get the nomination no matter how she performed, no matter how many people voted for her, no matter WHAT, that, to me, is fraud. And they damn well better be held accountable for that, don't you think?</i><br /><br />Amen, Rev! I donated a LOT to the Clinton campaign as well, and I think the DNC should pay us all back. With interest.<br /><br />I just don't know what to think about this book. From what Ben Smith says, it's pretty much hands off Obama and a hatchet job on all the rest. It speaks to the gossip in me (yup, okay, I admit, I love me some good gossip) but raises my hackles on any potential hit job on the Clintons (I read someplace where there was a war room within the war room to figure out how to deal with Bill and his latest romantic interest - darn that Bill!).<br /><br />Then again, if it exposes the DNC and the Dem Senators as being the frauds and hypocrites we know them to be...and pretty fascinating about Elizabeth Edwards, who I always admired...<br /><br />I doubt I'll buy or read the book. It feels to me (although I have no evidence to back it up) that these 2 guys are pro-Obama and anti-Clinton. Although it will be fun to see how much folks like Schumer and McCaskill scramble for cover!<br /><br />And...Aruba? You betcha!!! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-4574678261425700442010-01-11T11:45:05.946-05:002010-01-11T11:45:05.946-05:00Regarding Chuck Shumer, there was no doubt in my m...Regarding Chuck Shumer, there was no doubt in my mind that he wasn't supporting Clinton and supporting Obama. He NEVER came to her defense when she was being hit with lies and misogynist insults by the Obama campaign. If you watched him on the Sunday talk shows, you could see him slouch down in his seat when the subject of Hillary came up, but was very animated and happy when speaking about Obama. The guy is a real piece of work, slimy. <br /><br />Yes, we were victims of fraud by this Democratic Party, and I'll NEVER go back to them again. I'm staying as an Independent and my vote will only go to those that I feel comfortable in supporting...and I WILL do my homework when it comes to looking at their record. <br /><br />I can't wait for the Democratic Party to call me looking for donations in the next Prez election. They will get a very clear message as to where I stand...and it won't be pretty.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096051756459933731noreply@blogger.com
