This is how you campaign in the week before the first caucus!

By rockin' out with Bon Jovi for $1000 a head, and just $2700 if you want a photo-op!

Take a nice look at Franklin Square Capital while you are at it.

These aren't attacks against Hillary. This is for when you wonder why we claim she is beholden to entities other than her constituents.

I think there are more cows than people in Vermont.

I want to think about this for a while.

And of course, it's an attack on Hillary and her supporters. I want my friends and adversaries alike, to know exactly where they stand with me and I stand with them, in real life and on the internet.




Respectfully,

A factual presentation via link is not an attack. And while in my short time here I have seen your pious and sometimes patronizing replies, I will close my remarks by saying we agree to disagree on this matter.

But your seminal post:

"...These aren't attacks against Hillary..."


was the rhetorical equivalent of expectorating in someone's eye and then telling them it's mist.

Piously but not patroninizingly,

DemocratSinceBirth



P.S. To demonstrate what a magnanimous poster I am I even recommended your thread.

Is there such a thing as two P.S.s?

P.S. ll If you didn't say it wasn't an attack I would have never responded There isn't enough time in a day to respond to all the calumnies on Secretary Clinton on this board....It wasn't the attack that raised my ire. It was the disingenuity.
