How Far Can We Go To Destroy Hillary Clinton?
Submitted by Plato2016 on Tue, 05/03/2016 - 1:17am
Is it okay to speak my mind here? Will I get banned if I say, "Hillary is the devil spawn of Henry Kissinger"? Just asking if this would be allowed at this website...
If I say that I can no longer vote for the "lesser of two evils", will I be banished to the corn field?
Or, I might want to point out that all of the things that I hated about Rmoney still make me vomit when they are wrapped up in a new and 'improved' (choke) package with the democratic seal of approval.
And, what if I told you that I'm hoping for a million-voter march to Philadelphia on the 25th of July? Would I be spit upon?
Just wondering.

Yes, you can say it all.

Does that help?

Actually I agree with most of what you wrote. Although I
probably will hold my nose and vote for Hill if she's the nominee, but it depends on how the rest of the primaries and the convention go. I will not vote for her if she steals the nom - i.e, if by the convention Bern has the people's votes but she takes the supers.
At any rate, AFAIAC, it doesn't matter whether we agree. What matters is a good conversation.

But, she has been stealing
But, she has been stealing the nomination, already. Lying robocalls and mailings, closed polling sites, people thrown off the voting rolls, flipped votes via electronic voting. DNC=Hillary. Jerry Garcia said something like, voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil.
Yes, but I think I'd rather vote for evil than for the greater
evil. I'm going to see how the rest plays out. I think a lot of the nonsense has been not Hillary, I think it's Repubs behind the scenes rehearsing for November, and I have been constantly calling for election fraud investigations partly for that reason - whatever happens now through the convention, we need to fix this so it doesn't happen in the general, or the Repub will be the President.

But a look at the Clinton's
history will show that the tactics and strategy (or "nonsense") employed are very much a part of the way that they do business. Besides it would be in the GOP's interest to protect Hillary as she is by far the weaker GE candidate.

I don't rule anything out. But I think we make a stronger case
for an investigation by not assuming anything in advance. Investigate because protecting every voter's right is the correct thing to do, not because it might benefit Bern. Although it might.

Destroying Hillary Clinton isn't a good goal for me
I don't mind if you want to, but I'm gonna focus on something else that makes me feel good.
Planet to save, people to educate, and episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race to watch.
I've had enough of the Two Minutes Hate to last a lifetime.

What do you think of the
What do you think of the final three on RPDR? I'm mostly pleased. Always 1 or 2 queens I wish had gone further, but this is the first final three that I remember where I like them all.
Two of my top three made it
I was behind a few episodes so I couldn't reply until now! I was surprised at the last person eliminated.

Making sure
that Clinton is as far away from the levers of power as possible and saving the planet are intimately connected.
Can't speak to the impact on the RuPaul Drag Race situation though.

The levers of power
You're right about HC, but sadly there is little I can do personally in that regard other than vote and talk to people IRL who will listen to me.
prog - weirdo | dog - woof
Unfortunately
there will always be people invested in stopping us from doing good whatever that good may be:
Better education? - out come the Charter school lobbyists, TfA, etc
Mitigate climate change? - fossil fuel industry
Environment? Industry in general
Less war? Neocons and entire MIC
Healtheir food? Monsanto
and always, always the bought and paid for officials and politicians.
at some point we have to take them on as they are not going to step out of our way. Sad that this is the case.

Better to have a massive 3rd
Better to have a massive 3rd party vote happen and the two party left out of the WH with the Greens if Bernie is not nominated.
So long, and thanks for all the fish
You are more likely to get in trouble for the opposite
I have yet to see a post on this site praising Hillary. Not that I want to see one, mind you, so don't take this as a challenge.
Just don't compare Hillary to Satan
The Satanists will demand an apology.

Destroying Hillary is a worthwhile goal only to the extent
that it aids in destroying the Democratic establishment that has sapped the soul of that party and any progressive impulse that arose since 1984. It's nothing personal. I think a lot of people here feel you, Plato.
For at least another hundred years we must pretend to ourselves and to everyone that fair is foul and foul is fair; for foul is useful and fair is not. Avarice and usury and precaution must be our gods for a little longer still.

I believe HRC is in the process of destroying her own self
and that our resources are better put to supporting Bernie until the very last vote is counted.
I certainly hope to see a VERY large support gather for Bernie in Philly.

Goes good with popcorn...
No more voting for the lesser of two evils for me.
I'm done with R or D.
Might I add a simple, "Fuck Hillary"

I don't really want to destroy Hillary Clinton.
Keeping her out of the White House will be enough.

The Clinton machine seems to be able
to wield hands a lot of power from outside the WH. Obama's administration was chock full of Clintonites. His economic team was nothing but Rubinites, the neoliberal assholes descended from the viscous Chicago Boy school that stemmed from Uncle Miltie. (Milton Friedman)

Keeping The Mad Bomber out of the WH still leaves the Clinton machine intact and powerful. The ascendancy of neoliberal and neocon Clintonian New Democrat's from the formation of the DLC/Third Way to this election has been continuous. Obama was just a fresh face they put out their to sell the unfettered disaster cappie globalized economy.
Here's an oldie but a goodie. 'A breath of fresh air' says free market lover Oboomer... I sure wish I had seen this in 2006
So how are we going to pry the neoliberal neocon Clinton machine from running and owning the Democratic party? They are the Democratic tentacle of the blood sucking vampire squid.
Please keep saying it!
And welcome. Although we don't all agree, there are many here you cannot vote for the lesser evil, even if we had any way at this point to know which evil was lesser.
Should we destroy HRC?
Yes, but we can't. Clintons own the world, its media, governments, corporations, and military. How else do you think they amassed $3 billion since they left the White House? The key in getting rid of them is to not allow them to capture the White House ever again, or all is lost. Bill started and IS the DLC. He owns the Dem party, Obama, state and local Dem parties, boards of elections, union presidents, celebrities, media CEOs. Once they get back in power, they'll never let go. I may sound crazy but I've always had a good sense of danger and they're so psychopathic they're dangerous.
