'Hillary is deeply flawed'
'Hillary is corrupt'
Ok I hear this all the time. Whenever I ask - please explain - I usually get someone screaming at me - emails, Benghazi, Libya.
Here is my reply if I could ever get them to stop screaming:
Ok, emails: This was a dumb mistake made by many relatively computer naive sixty and seventy year old senoir public figures at the time. Clinton, certainly the most famous. Wanting some degree of privacy in order to conduct government business more effectively, creating one's own secure server was common place at the time. Looking back, it was a dumb thing to do. She admits it was dumb. But despite exhaustive investigation no one can find criminal wrong doing or intent. Corrupt implies she benefited from this. How did she benefit? BUT she LIED!!!If I asked you questions about what all your emails and facebook posts for the last 8 years contained do you think you'd get it right? You dirty filthy corrupt deeply flawed liar you :-)
Benghazi: 7 million dollars spent and 11 months wasted on an investigation led by a republican (and hostile) congressional committee that found no wrong doing by Clinton. No wrong doing, no questionable actions, no evidence of lying or cover up. That's not me saying this - the republicans who attempted to ruin her said it. (sorry for injecting fact into your hatred)
Libya: Where the HELL was your smug ass while we and NATO did what we did in Libya over many months? At the time republicans supported US and NATO actions there - almost unanimously. Did YOU say or think we should stop at the time? The fuck you did. Furthermore our military and diplomatic actions do not begin and end with Clinton. How the hell can you blame the Secretary of State almost exclusively for our failed strategies overseas. We have been failing ever since North Korea, Vietnam in case you haven't noticed. Going to blame that on her too?
Whitewater: Digging really, really, deep now. Don't you think that if there was ANYTHING there then the corrupt and unethical special prosecutor who went after her and Bill pretty much his entire political career would have found SOMETHING?
Clinton Foundation: Again no evidence of wrong doing. People who are in the know don't think there is even a hint of wrong doing. You are wrong, because it's what you want to believe and it has no basis in reality.
I do not like Clinton's politics. I think she's too Hawkish. I think she won't reform Wall Street and big banks enough. She won't do enough about global warming. She won't capture the hearts and spirit of this country to enact any sort of real change. But Hillary Clinton is no more 'corrupt' or 'deeply flawed' than any other politician. Certainly no more than Donald Trump. And Donald Trump is nuts, unstable, and utterly unqualified to boot. If corrupt now means doesn't always tell the truth then every politician, military leader, diplomat, husband, wife, girlfriend, boyfriend, daughter, son in the world is CORRUPT.
By this definition Trump's picture is to be found in the dictionary next to the word corrupt.
What is up with this double standard? Are you ALL that sexist?
