Related: About this forumJake Tapper just said Hillary is more hawkish than Bernie, most Democrats....

(24,411 posts)My daughter said, "Did he just say that...Wow!"
That is a big thing to say, in my opinion.
Hillary's hawkishness is like the big elephant in the room, that no commentators dare touch. Why, I don't know. Her hawkish record is obvious and very obvious.
Why can't we talk about it?
That's who she is. We should be able to talk about it.
I'm sure Tapper will get a call and a scolding from the Hillary camp.
If you listen to these commentators they discuss how heavily the Hillary camp lobbies and promotes their spin to these commentators--trying to influence how they report.
If I were a commentator, I'd really want to tell them to bug off.

See, e.g., this disgusting example of Hillary:
That isn't some RW smear, that is her own words and her own utter happiness caught on tape.
