Hillary just went on TV and pled with you to put money in her and her husband's pockets
Please, go to hillaryclinton.com so my campaign can pay me back the $11mm i lent it!

the other thing that disgusts me with her WVA victory speech is she made a point of saying that every state "should get a say" in the nomination.. i am particuallary sickened by this because her plan was to have the nomination wrapped by super tuesday, thereby negating the votes of every voter in every state that voted after. she didn't give one crap about anyone's vote after that. it is nauseatingly hypocritical for her to use this rhetoric now. this is the same as the "i had to fly in under threat of sniper fire" except this really means something. she is a fucking liar and we cannot have another one as president.

2. Not every state - just Primary States. Thus her
constant bang of the popular vote drum. She wants to discount the Caucus states.

21. as a member of a caucus state, she can bite me. and good point about the
hypocracy of wanting all votes counted in all states when her plan was to have it sewed up by super tuesday. Makes you wonder if she had done that if she would have even bothered to go to any place after that. I am sure the turnout would have not matched the turnout now.

12. now that's just a silly response
this is different b/c hillary is a creditor of her campaign, so with no chance to win, soliciting donations for a campaign that everyone knows is over is merely a cover for making sure her campaign has the cash to pay her back the $11mm she loaned it.

she has a freakin personal financial interest in soliciting donations for a campaign she cannot win.

it's unseemly.

really...

8. oh and the other reason she sickened me in this speech
is because she still solicits donations knowing full well she has no chance of winning. it is simply a ploy to raise money so her campaign has $$

no one says she shouldnt be able to raise funds to pay her campaign debts down, even if she is one of its main creditors. but what is offensive is that she won't level with donors. she's misleading them into thinking they are donating to her because she has a chance to win, when she so palpably doesn't. it's false advertising.

every time i see her plea for donations i think to myself, what she really means is "please donate to my campaign so i can get my $11mm back."

9. Why don't you put some money in DU's pocket so it's still here for you to post your disgust?
You have had its benefit for 3 months, or are you planning to leave after the primary?

23. last i checked, donating was something one did voluntarily
and i seriously doubt that the admins would appreciate you insinuating that people *should* donate to this site if they use it for a certain period of time.

i'm sure the admins are very grateful for the donations they receive and not interested in that system becoming a little TOOL that you use to try to belittle other posters.

11. I can't believe
my loathing of the Clintons now especially when compared to how much I supported and and defended them in the 1990s.

Pleas God, make them go away....

14. i am with you on that, sister...
i feel like such a dope for defending them up and down during the 90s... my ferocity in their defense actually cost me a few friends and at least one family memeber. to see the depths to which BOTH clintons have sunk during this campaign makes me think i was a fool for doing so. these people are scum, and they have undone all the good they did on race relations.

16. Very Bushics to me - Rove says if you say it enough the "public" will believe you........
Some of us cannot be fooled though - NOT THIS TIME - and come to think of it not ever before but I must say I was leaning toward Hillary a couple of years ago. It was seeing how NAFTA and the 1996 Communications Act came out and her love affair with Murdoch and Bill's millions he made off the Ruler of Dubai and Vin Gupta among others.

:spank:

25. Things change. Which is why she changed.
Honestly, if you hate her so damn much, why not just ignore everything Clinton?

By the way, ALL PRESIDENTS LIE. AMERICANS HATE BEING TOLD THE TRUTH.
