The Clinton Thread II

[Matt Mortem]

But hiw foul you know that without even talking to her doctor? The same way republicans know global warming is fake without listening to climatologists?

Hey get your logic out of here! Being a conservative and Trump supporter means going with your gut. They feel like Clinton is shockingly ill so clearly she's knocking on Death's door.

 

[Slushy]

I'm so sick and goddamn tired of this narrative. FDR had polio and was one of our better Presidents. Besides, there's no concrete evidence Clinton has anything wrong with her. It's a lame, unintelligent argument as to why Clinton is unfit for office.

That happens to me when someone has on certain perfumes...so what?

I would much rather have a President that coughs every once in awhile, than a President that spews stupidity every time they open their mouths. We have hours of that on video.

I'll take a President with a cough over an orange skinned hate monger any day of the week. Give me a medical professional's thorough examination and we'll talk. Until then keep forwarding those emails. That's where the real investigative journalism happens.

It often bugs me how Hillary gets a bad rap even when she does nothing wrong. This coughing thing is more of the same.

If it turned out that she loved FRIED chicken from a famous restaurant she'd be accused of supporting cruelty against chickens because of the way chickens are treated in the U.S. it isn't fair.

It's politics, she has dished it, and has had it dished at her....it's how the game is played. This is not that big of a deal. IMO, how she was treated in the Democratic debates back in 2008 was far more deplorable than this kind of thing.

What happened there?

 

[2kt09]

Can we get anti-Clinton bots to admit it could just be a cold and can we get pro-Clintonites to admit it could be something more serious?

We don't actually know and both are possible.

Could be a cold. I just saw some green flem being puked into that glass of water.

An ill president is still the last thing on my list.
Let's see...
New details on her staff, such as Cheryl Mills, were part of this cover-up.
Plus, the latest accusation is that the Benghazi hearing was staged.

What happened there?

Something about her supporters, not her campaign specifically, having started the "birther" rumor as "desperate times called for desperate measures".
Oh and she compared her chances to her husband's when RFK was assassinated.

True it is politics. But part of politics is calling it out. I do think the piling on couod backfire, because its never about the issues. Its just personal attacks. She could be seen as a victim we root for to show the bullies who is boss.

We constantly hear she is so horribly corrupt, and I think deep down inside people know she is getting a bad rap. It could turn people off and make them want to root for Hillary.

It's my diagnosis that Mrs. Clinton is suffering from a case of choking on her own bullsh**. - Dr. Slushy

This would be why Trump has been using a gastroenterologist as his Doctor for 25 years t:

Should newspapers be "endorsing" candidates in the first place?

You saw green phlegm being "puked" into a glass from crappy quality video. You're f***ing with all of us right?

Is this "puked up phlegm" coming down and to the right into the glass?

Down and to the right.

Down and to the right.

Or is there another phantom person sneaking it into the glass so they can cover-up Hill-Dawgs actual health. Also, is that person actually the phantom Clinton assassin they use for all the killings over the years?

Probably not. But, they do and have done it for quite a while. I don't mind bias anywhere on the Opinion Pages (which is where the endorsements usually occur)--I'd prefer it to stay out of the news articles as much as possible, however.

You get that with some newspapers/news sites. Others, such as Breitbart and HuffPo, seem to be nothing but slanted "news."

Wouldn't it be funny of FAUX endorsed Clinton and MSNBC endorsed Trump? Just to try and prove they aren't biased haha.

I guess stupid honesty trumps (no pun intended) dishonesty. Most news outlets have a bias, and at least this newspaper is up front about it.

This one is of interest because it's backed Republican candidates for 75 years and now breaking with that tradition to dump Trump. But for me I really hate that nearly all news reporting services around the world are not politically neutral. I guess that many of those seem to wear it on their sleeve is, as you say, better than a bias that they don't admit to. But it's not a nice thing to know (I wasn't as aware as a kid) and makes learning the truth, especially about events not close to home very difficult.

 

[Marvolo]

Even if news stations didnt outright publically on the record endorse a candidate they would still prefer one candidate over the other. Can't be helped. News is handled by people and networks are owned by people. Those people's politics are going to inevitably color the news they report, the consultants the network uses, and the candidates they prefer. Its inevitable. So a newspaper or network endorsing a candidate is par for the course.

 

[2kt09]

I prefer the "bought and paid for" label as they just happen to employ people who can parrot those views.

Highlights of this year:
-CNN's "clever" editing in relation to the Milwaukee riot, covering Kaepernick's stance on BLM far more than his stance on Hillary, and that censorship of a baby saving Trump supporter.

-MSNBC being trolled with racism: that one Black Trump supporter and that KFC ad.

-Recall both MSNBC and CNN having a laughable time bringing up Hillary's emails or any proven past transgression.

-PBS News Hour, I posted a few pages ago.

-Fox News, everyone here knows all too well.

-The Trump and Hillary supporters/"surrogates" that show up to debate on any station are always a delight (either embarrassing themselves or the interviewers/reporters)

I really don't see how any respectable organization can support Trump. I mean, I had my issues with Mitt Romney, but the man wasn't a psychopathic man child. Clinton is no prize, but of the two choices, the right one seems clear.
