although some seem to froth at the mouth when it comes to Hillary.

She brings out something in people that is hard to explain.
It's unreasonable.

I can take some solace in the fact that I'm sure Hillary is going to win.

The idea that this attack piece has any place on DU is sad. This is a right wing attack piece being published by Murdoch and financed by the billionaire funding the Cruz campaign. The concept that anyone on DU would take this work seriously is sad

... the same people who always scoff at how FAUX-News adherents will swallow absolutely anything now swallowing absolutely anything that is anti-HRC - regardless of source, the credentials of the author, and/or reliance on easily debunked "facts".

Had RW hack Peter Schweitzer written his usual bullshit about Warren or Sanders, those same posters would have torn him to shreds. But because it's Hillary, they have suddenly decided that he's a trusted "author" with an impeccable background.

Given DU's current make-up, I expect we'll be seeing more and more of this in the coming year.

... which explains why they're sopping up anything they can find, and posting it here without regard to source.

The RW sites must be enjoying heavier-than-usual traffic these days, while some "Democrats" sift through their garbage looking for anti-HRC tidbits to re-post on DU.

Hook line and sinker. Don't forget, Nance, some of them idolize GG and Snowden, they hang on their every word. They are heros.

Lol~ I got called a conservative on my HRC thread. They got nothing and so they stick to name calling.

By left wing sites. Better Believe It did that a lot, he appeared to get his sources from RW sites, but always linked some left wing site to prove that it was a left wing criticism. He got banned precisely because he no longer had the left wing sites to link and was forced to use right wing sources.

A pseudo-"Progressive" who used half-truths, out of context quotes, highly edited quotes that completely changed the meaning of what the person said, et cetera et cetera. In otherwords, he used every trick in the Fox News playbook to smear Democrats.

If you pointed out the tricks and dishonest rhetoric, he got extremely vicious.

It was extremely obvious he was a troll, but managed to fly under the radar for ages and ages.

Then one day I guess he couldn't find anything juicy on counterpunch to manipulate. So he posted stuff attacking Democrats from right wing sources. Whoever was giving him the benefit of the doubt I guess figured out what many had known from day one. EarlG banned his troll ass.

To see the latest lies, paid for by the koch bros, written by a republican hack that was on Palin's staff...

Posted on democratic? underground as if its true facts about Hillary!

Total BS!

And more HS from Glenn Beck's The Blaze gets posted here all the time by supposed leftists, who apparently are hoping and working for a republican victory in 2016!
