2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumClinton flat out drives the right wing crazy.
The bigots, racists, and sexists just can't help themselves. You need to understand how bad this looks on them. They will take horrendous pieces like this and share them far and wide. Somehow, many of them think it looks flattering on them and makes Clinton look bad. They are hateful idiots. Thing is, many in their fold hate this stuff. They are going to be disgusted after these right wing extremists promote this stuff non-stop for months. They will be seen for the sick people many of them are.
Trump won't be the only one campaigning in the General. We have a lot to say and we have a lot of righteous firepower to send back at them.
America's First Gay President: Hillary Clinton?
Hillary is a lesbian, Miller said, repeating a lingering, but thus far officially unsubstantiated, rumor that has dogged the former first lady for years (this writer has been told by trustworthy sources that Arkansas troopers assigned to guard then-Gov. Clinton have admitted that women used to visit both of them separately, and separate women).
Now, more than 30 years later, Sally Miller a onetime singer and radio host known as Sally Purdue is getting ready to spill more intimate details in an upcoming tell-all book.
Miller says her memoir will detail a series of unguarded conversations where she claims that Bill said his wife prefers female intimate companionship. And she also believes that Hillary is behind a plot to keep her quite ahead of the nomination process and, if she wins, the November elections.

This site claims itself as being ....united for a political revolution. Lots of support for this article at their revolutionary site. Lots of bigotry.

This site describes itself as "Independent News For Awakened Minds"
Your independent party has arrived. It ain't pretty.

(146,281 posts)this morning, and now we have this from that jackpineradicals forum. Just the next step in the scurrilous attacks on Hillary Clinton from both ends of the political spectrum.
"C'est pour rire," I say.
NCTraveler
(30,481 posts)I believe I can successfully argue that they are not both sides of the political spectrum. I believe equality is a necessary component to being on the left. Being an outright bigot, racist, sexist person who wants to break up the big banks does not make one a part of the left.
That post you mention was flat out disgusting.
MineralMan
(146,281 posts)I figure people can say what they are. Who am I to argue with them. This appearance of the lesbian talking point on the other site mentioned doesn't change my mind on that at all. If they call themselves leftists, then they think they are leftists, so I'll give them the benefit of their own label.
NCTraveler
(30,481 posts)Fair enough and respectable. I do think support of human rights is a necessary component to being on the left.

(30,481 posts)We will come out in droves to oppose their brutal and oppressive positions.
Why do you think they are the only ones who can vote?
Look at that article they are promoting. You then say they will come out in droves to vote against her. Why don't you think people will show up in droves to oppose them?
Just look at the filth they support and spread. It's sickening and in opposition to everything we stand for.

(24,853 posts)They already are, and in November they'll seem like locust.
No matter though... the Clinton Campaign and DNC still claim not to need or even want the votes of certain groups. Nice position to be in.

(30,481 posts)That can be seen in every state. And comparing the turnout during their implosion is a pretty poor metric for determining what will happen in the future. Really poor actually.
I will say that the left will show up in greater numbers to oppose the extremists promoting this level of hate. As I have stated before, all who bring your argument in completely ignore that we will have a say as well.

The Democratic Party doesn't want or need your vote."
Not sure how effective that's going to be though...

(30,481 posts)I want you vote. If this are they types of things that keep you from the polls, not what is outlined in the op or with Clintons own platform, there isn't much I can do. I want you to vote Clinton in the GE. Not sure how much more clear I can be about that. If Clintons platform isn't enough, and these right wing extremists gaining power isn't enough, then there is nothing I can do. The level of hate these extremists show to all oppressed groups is brutal. Truly brutal.
"Yeah I've seen the efforts to GOTV. Good stuff."
It has been good stuff. Look at how many people we have gotten to the polls. It is substantial. We need more. A lot more.

(14,093 posts)so that barrier is long gone anyway. The GOP philosophy seems to be summed up as "When in a deep hole, keep digging".

(50,566 posts)It's a bit ironic because she's not much of a liberal -- a war-friendly, Wall St. friendly, pro-death penalty politician, she is.
Still, if they only focus on the fact that she's a woman, I hope that those who have clogged their arteries with rage over a black president will keel over if she gets inaugurated.
