That level of anger and hate directed at a fellow Democrat is incomprehensible to me. I truly don't understand it.

Probably Hiroshima. The fall from Eden. It was probably her fault too that Nadir spoiled the 2000 race and the bombing of the Twin Towers. What else could she be blamed for? Those were all her fault too. She is all powerful and can even change the weather.

Of course, Sanders was a mayor and could have done something substantive to end Apartheid; but of course Hillary (as a then first lady) should be blamed for every ill on the planet.

... did attempt to pin some blame on her for 9/11, via Bill and his supposed "inaction" on the issue. It's gotten so bad around here that it has apparently been forgotten that the raison d'être for DU's existence was the sheer awfulness and malfeasance of the Shrub administration.

another administration that will take another stab at destroying the entire world and then they can be happy in their misery. Me, I would prefer that we have another Democrat in the WH and move forward.

Very suspicious spread of this pernicious virus in direct parallel to HRC's victories in the primaries.

do a post titled "Hillary did nothing to stop the bomb from being dropped on Hiroshima!" and watch the BSers swarm all over it. Here's one that could get their little hearts all aflutter: "Amelia Earhart disappeared and Hillary didn't even try to find her!". Could be a fun game to play.

It's like going back and looking at the old versions of DU and seeing the bots going around and posting like the site's still active, completely oblivious that the rest of the world has moved on.

also blame Hillary for apartheid. We've always known it was her fault - think about it, she was born in 1947, and apartheid started in 1948. Coincidence? I think not...

had to see it for myself.

The responses are, for the most part, some of the BEST of DU, IMO, and pure comedy gold.

Hillary supporters are the BEST!!!!

Even if you are, like me, generally only forced into GD-P under pain of having your fingernails pulled out one by one, this thread is well worth the visit.
