A Hillary Clinton quote that really get to the point and the problem.

[jsamuel]

This is the triangulation you keep hearing people complain about.

When King reminded Clinton, cuttingly, that she'd called for a president with "spine," Clinton promised to show "as much spine as we possibly can" in response to the political sensitivities around AIDS funding.

I still like her, but man this drives me crazy.

1. "as much spine as we possibly can"? "political sensitivities"?

This is DLC Corporatist mumbo-jumbo for "whatever won't piss off our donors in Big Medicine and Big Pharma".

Makes me S I C K ! ! ! :puke:

This Party should be f*cking ashamed if she's the best we can do!

2. Would someone explain to me the difference between

triangulation and lies?

3. What that statement means...

..."show 'as much spine as we possibly can' in response to the political sensitivities around AIDS funding" means you don't want to upset those that think AIDS is for fa*&ots...why give money to them...and who gives a shit about Africa anyway...

Spine with the strength of soggy marshmellows in the acid rain...
