Clinton Camp HEAVILY invested in lies about Jill Stein

The Narrative is: "Jill Stein Is an Anti-Vaccine Advocate".

It's a lie. Snopes Confirms it.

Isn't stopping the Hillary crowd from publishing NEW articles and claiming that since the Snopes article was published before them, the data is now irrelevant. Somehow, the very fact that Stein Doesn't Trust the FDA is "Fear-mongering" and "Pandering to the Conspiracy Crowd".

It's a lie. All of it. They're completely full of shit. And even the truth will not stop them from doubling down on the lie and amplifying it with character assassinations. This is what Clinton is.

Expect LOTS more of this. Quotes taken out of context, and all questioning to be seen as pandering. Somehow, mistrust of the government has been decided by the Clinton Camp to be Anti-American.

And their Journey to the Rethug side, is complete. This is exactly the tactics of Fox News from the 90s. They are lying, and blatantly so, and will continue to lie. If you haven't killed your TV yet, this is a good time to do so.

Thanks for that--I did see that article. That may be where the DK hit piece came from originally.

So now we know--we know what they're trying to do here. Unfortunately for them, there is no quote to that end coming from Stein. So they're making shit up out of whole cloth.

This should be reiterated repeatedly. All this has started with ONE blog post. Every time you see that on Twitter or Facebook or here or there or wherever, push back on it. They are liars repeating a lie.

HRC, psychopathic liar, has spread so many lies that even she doesn't know what is true. Just look at the whole NV chair-throwing fiasco, willfully spread by MSM as if it were Gospel. It was pure bullshit from the start and they all knew it. Respectfully echoing Mr. Godwin: Hitler succeeded partly in telling the Big Lie and Telling It Often. Lest you think I exaggerate, consider that Hillary is a Fascist--not close to Fascist, not proto-Fascist--but actual Fascist who has been, and will continue to do the unification of government and business more thoroughly than it has ever been.

In fact, I play that up, lol! About half the people I work with are professed Trumpsky voters--I've been trying to reach them, right? And I started with "LIES" because all true 'Pubs know that Hillary Clinton lies every time she opens her mouth. Thing is, though, they're still not wavering from Trumpsky, they start trying to convert me, and I'm like "Um, no--if it weren't for that Tea Party hack he put on his ticket, I'd probably join you! Those people are wack!!" And that's about where we're at.

It's weird, preaching to the converted who never intended to vote for her. I think it's more of an education for them! It's like "Check this gal out, she's a librul and she hates Hillary. Is she for REAL? How does THAT work??" One of them said to me yesterday, "Boy, it must suck to be a real liberal right now--you guys don't have anybody!" I looked at him, clasped my hands in front of me and did a slight bow (think: Ed McMahon's famous genuflection move to Johnny Carson, back in the day). "Thank you for noticing!" I said with a smile. "It sucks to be me right now!" He said, "so what do you do now, go Third Party?" Yep. Exactly.

Then he laughed at me and said "yeah, well, good luck with THAT...."; I'll tell ya, some days it just don't pay to even get outta bed....

They'll do anything to bring Sanders supporters on board except compromise on any issues important to them. They know as well as we do the potential for mass defections to Stein, and they know those could sink her candidacy. So they will lie and smear Stein just as they did Sanders. David Brock is probably already on the case.

Hillary isn't going to do anything from here on out but bleed voters. Smearing Stein is just a tourniquet. But the people who are going to vote for Stein are the people who are already inoculated against the Clintons' media operations bullshit, because we've already seen how it works with Bernie. Best thing to do is jujitsu their move by calling out the lies and the liars, pointing out yet again the DNC emails showing the Clintonites' collusion with the media.

Nixon out of the White House, totally showed the corruption of the 'Democratic' Party at the 1968 convention, and ended the war in Vietnam. That was when TPTB decided that that would be the last time the American people would ever be allowed to show their 'displeasure' with the government to such a powerful extent. This is also when they noticed an prosperous, well-educated citizenry is also an absolute danger to their plans for our futures.

I mean, the Democratic party made it readily apparent that they are at best Center Right, and they are trying to co-opt the Republican "Moderates" so I think we can safely drop any pretense that they are anything other than the "New" Conservative party.

And I have grown to expect little else from conservatives over the years.

I left the Republican Party EXACTLY because this type of shit was running rampant throughout it.

The Democratic Party has become the thing it has been so smugly mocking for decades and they are so obtuse that they are completely unaware of it.

I suspect that the majority of the Democratic Party is now composed of conservatives that fled the Republican Party over all the god and guns bullshit and the vast majority of the remaining are the authoritarian follower types.

The reason Independents make up the largest percentage of the voting block is likely because that's where all the progressives from the Democratic party have been fleeing to for years.

Once we start building a new home, I suspect we will have little effort attracting residents.

Despite everything, I am still optimistic that we will continue the fight and that we will win.

I also saws the charge first on the orange place. I actually read the piece the diary used as background/proof. It quoted Stein and one had to deliberately distort beyond recognition to accuse her of being a vaxxer. The diary was from an established front pager.

I am sure there is now a coordinated and paid campaign to discredit Stein. Dem establishment will probably also try to keep her off the ballot by legal means as they did in 2004 with Nader.

I do not pretend I know what I do not know.

Any "regulatory" agency which continuously allows killer drugs into the market place (Vioxx ring a bell? Crestor? Rezulin?), often without any testing required, and so very much more, cannot be trusted to protect the public from harmful drugs and vaccines.

I am not an anti-vaxxer. I do know, however, that corporations who make drugs and vaccines will eliminate safety testing procedures they deem unnecessary. They will put products on the shelves even when they know there are problems just to ensure that the quarterly earnings report only presents positive news. I don't trust any of them as far as I can throw them in my sleep.

Dr. Stein has both the credentials and the obligation to question the industry, something you can be certain isn't one of the actions you will see the AMA take. Of course she must be opposed as a crank, a quack, and a nut, because PROFITS! How else are they going to pay the Clintons for services rendered once she leaves office once and for all?

it would be something else.
Trump got his bump and has a small lead in polling. Historically Clinton should also get a bump, and maybe she will, but I doubt it will last two weeks, and it might not even materialize (tiny bump against a background rate of decline in her numbers). Her numbers never go up.
She needs voters (the oligarchy just hates democracy). Where is she going to get them?
- New democratic voters? Those are overwhelmingly Bernie supporters who are underwhelmed with Her Heinous. This is mostly out of her reach.
- Democrats who preferred Bernie but will vote for the Democrat on the ticket. She's got those, the Stalinist convention was enough to covert them.
- "Moderate Republicans" (nearly an oxymoron). That's her big focus. They get all the carrots, none of the sticks.
- Whatever few Greens and Berniecrats that can be scared away from voting Green and convinced to vote at all. They (we) get all the sticks, none of the carrots.

In other words, a classic 90s Clinton campaign. Nothing has changed, nothing will.

Neither will all the people being pushed into the grave. Where is their solution? Which matters more, Black Lives or Hillary's Life? (That's a dichotomy we may very well see play out, if the police militarization Bill started continues under Hillary.)

Here's something I've been pondering lately. We've got two possible events in our future - irreversible climate change and nuclear war - which are potentially extinction-level events. As in, our species could die out. FOREVER.

Now, I don't think actual nuclear war is very likely, and climate change isn't my particular bugbear. Actually, I kind of don't care a lot if humanity wipes itself out, because I'm misanthropic like that. But there are people who do care. A lot. Like, this is their #1 issue. Especially climate change.

Why aren't those people full-on militant? I'm talking assassination, domestic terrorism, militias, occupation, prison breaks, deals with Satan, WHATEVER IT TAKES. Because we're talking about the end of the world (at least from our perspective).

Do they actually care?

At what point does a person say "well, okay, the world might end, and that's the most important and terrible thing I can imagine, but I'm not willing to get my hands dirty over it because that would be wrong"? Congratulations, a global society of seven billion people died out in a geologic blink, but at least you never compromised your ethics?

I'm beginning to think those people don't actually care all that much; they're just posturing. Whiny, useless, annoying posturing.

I'm beginning to think nearly the entire left is like that too. The stakes may be lower and the remedies less extreme, but the paralyzing insincerity feels the same.

http://www.mediaite.com/online/is-the-green-partys-jill-stein-anti-vaxx/

“I think there’s no question that vaccines have been absolutely critical in ridding us of the scourge of many diseases — smallpox, polio, etc. So vaccines are an invaluable medication,” Stein told told the Post. “Like any medication, they also should be — what shall we say? — approved by a regulatory board that people can trust. And I think right now, that is the problem. That people do not trust a Food and Drug Administration, or even the CDC for that matter, where corporate influence and the pharmaceutical industry has a lot of influence.”

In a Reddit AMA in May, she was asked what her campaign’s official stance toward vaccines was. She essentially argued that Americans have good reason to “be skeptical” of the agencies tasked with regulating vaccines (the “medical-industrial complex,” she called it). She wrote:

I don’t know if we have an “official” stance, but I can tell you my personal stance at this point. According to the most recent review of vaccination policies across the globe, mandatory vaccination that doesn’t allow for medical exemptions is practically unheard of. In most countries, people trust their regulatory agencies and have very high rates of vaccination through voluntary programs. In the US, however, regulatory agencies are routinely packed with corporate lobbyists and CEOs. So the foxes are guarding the chicken coop as usual in the US. So who wouldn’t be skeptical? I think dropping vaccinations rates that can and must be fixed in order to get at the vaccination issue: the widespread distrust of the medical-indsutrial [sic] complex.

Vaccines in general have made a huge contribution to public health. Reducing or eliminating devastating diseases like small pox and polio. In Canada, where I happen to have some numbers, hundreds of annual death from measles and whooping cough were eliminated after vaccines were introduced. Still, vaccines should be treated like any medical procedure–each one needs to be tested and regulated by parties that do not have a financial interest in them.

Here's RFK's take on why we should be cautious
http://www.robertfkennedyjr.com/vaccines.html

Vaccines are big business. Pharma is a trillion-dollar industry with vaccines accounting for $25 billion in annual sales. High stakes and the seamless marriage between Big Pharma and government agencies have spawned an opaque and crooked regulatory system.

"Federal Election Commission Certifies Federal Matching Funds for Stein

WASHINGTON – The Federal Election Commission has certified a payment of $45,929.27 in federal matching funds to Jill Stein for President in connection with the 2016 presidential primary election. The certified amount was in response to the second regular submission for matching funds made by Stein, the Green Party's presidential candidate for 2016.
To become eligible for matching funds, candidates must raise a threshold amount of $100,000 by collecting $5,000 in 20 different states in amounts no greater than $250 from any individual. Other requirements to be declared eligible include agreeing to an overall spending limit, abiding by spending limits in each state, using public funds only for legitimate campaign-related expenses, keeping financial records and permitting an extensive campaign audit.
Based on Commission certification of Jill Stein for President’s initial threshold submission for matching funds in March and the Committee’s first regular submission last month, the United States Treasury made two payments totaling $196,924.35 to the campaign. The Commission has requested that the U.S. Treasury make a third payment of $45,929.27, bringing the total certified amount for Stein's committee to $242,853.62.
Materials included with Jill Stein for President’s submission may be viewed here.
Once declared eligible, campaigns may submit additional contributions for matching funds on the first business day of every month. The maximum amount a primary candidate could receive is currently estimated to be about $48.01 million."

Still, Shelob in a pantsuit found a small pond for her big fish pretensions.

Gëzuar!!
from a reasonably stable genius.

But, too bad for them, we're not the Fox news audience of the 1990s. That shit doesn't fly anymore.
