Ok, really, seriously. Clinton is arguing that she can get shit done. So . . .

re- my previous reply to another post, the only response I got re-, ok, what has she actually gotten done? was to refer me to the Clinton Foundation's accomplishments in Haiti, notwithstanding that in my originals post, I referred to http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/world/americas/haiti/article6005817.html (, so like I guess they didn't read that shit . . .

Rather than build houses, David said, the government has decided it’s better to create the environment to motivate people to construct their own homes.

"A promised market and factory still haven’t materialized, the water isn’t drinkable and roofs are leaky. To get anywhere takes time, money and difficulty."

We'd rather leave them homeless, anyway.

Think about that, especially in the colder states.

Last year, Boston had over 100 inches of snow, a lot of it of it in one month. Speaking of which, we've also cut fuel subsidies.

What I find the worst is that we don't even provide enough places where homeless people can go to the bathroom, do laundry, take a shower.

What the hell is wrong with us?
