To quote Ronald Reagan, there you go again, Susan Sarandon. Competing for the title of Bernie Sanders most deranged Hillary Clinton attack dog, Sarandon has already suggested that a Donald Trump presidency might be preferable to Hillary winning the White House, called her a liar, and even come out against a Chelsea Clinton presidency. At a rally in Philadelphia Monday night, Sarandon was at it again, attacking Hillary with a vicious quote that carried special power because of the identity of the person she claimed to be quoting:
This is such an important election, I just wanted to read you this, a little something about Hillary Rodham Clinton. HRC is driven by politics, not conviction. From the war, to NAFTA, to Social Security, to her choice of baseball teams, Clinton is constantly shifting, dodging and changing positions to satisfy the politics of the moment. Her penchant for secrecy and non-disclosure reflect an underlying disdain for the invisible people for whom she claims to speak.
This was spoken by Barack Obama in 2008. So as we can see, the only thing consistent about Hillary Clinton is her inconsistency.
The quote is real, and Sarandon quotes it accurately, but it wasnt from 2008, it was from 2007, but more importantly, it wasnt spoken by Barack Obama.

Hillary has never had that throat-crushing pit bull who could make every word in a sentence drip with venom.
By choice, it seems. Bill had Carville.

When it comes to pretending make believe is real, she's top notch.

Destroy Hillary? Sanders can't win so the more you tear down Hillary the more damage you do to the Democratic chances.
I don't get it.
