It's that, matching morons though they are oft times, they're our fellow citizens. We need the people, if not their corrupt representation, to be with us or at least open to dialogue. The Republican voter won't hear 'Republicans' and think 'the d-bags in charge' they'll think "US".

in back-door relation to this topic ... in response to A.C.'s question, she didn't say is enemies with republicans; rather, she said, they have made her their enemy.

That said, I would have had zero problem if she really had said, "Republicans are an enemy ... my enemy ... that I plan to ground into political nothingness, whether I win the Democratic primary and G/E election or not." (Other than, for the sake a comity.)

What some are doing here is really a gross distortion.

Interestingly enough, some of the same folks who are feigning outrage were the same ones calling the bush administration and some of the republicans in congress enemies.

Thanks for the link

and never knew where it came from. I do think it is appropriate to say this at times.

Thank you so much for the post.....

of your statement.

The telltale for loose lipped, arrogant, and foolish was adding in the Iranians. Just irresponsible.

guess they needed joe to point the way.

first election. Here's Pat Buchanan, from his keynote speech at RNC 1992, George HW Bush's second nominating convention:
"Elect me, and you get "two for the price of one," Mr. Clinton says of his lawyer-spouse. And what -- And what does Hillary believe? Well, Hillary believes that 12-year-olds should have the right to sue their parents. And Hillary has compared marriage and the family, as institutions, to slavery and life on an Indian reservation. Well, speak for yourself, Hillary.

Friends -- Friends, this -- This, my friends -- This is radical feminism. The agenda that Clinton & Clinton would impose on America: abortion on demand, a litmus test for the Supreme Court, homosexual rights, discrimination against religious schools, women in combat units. That's change, all right. But that's not the kind of change America needs. It's not the kind of change America wants. And it's not the kind of change we can abide in a nation we still call "God's country."

Very antagonistic, very aggressive, Bill has not even won the election and they are calling out Hillary in extremely hostile terms. They set a tone that still drones on and on.

...because it was one of the loudest applause lines of the night. (And frankly the only thing she said that I actually thought was new or interesting.)

They're only talking about it now because Biden brought it up.

And for some stupid ass reason Americans hate partisanship despite that the fucking idiotic Republicans have held congress and the country hostage for almost a decade now...

complimentary toward Biden. If he was running for President I would say fine, but he made a decision NOT to run. Instead he decides to give a backhanded parting shot at one of the Democratic candidates for what? To hurt that candidates chances? To hurt the Democratic party?

Obama ran on that platform and it worked for him. That's why I like Sanders because he has shown he doesn't play, and I was sort of disappointed that he joined Biden in those remarks.

Yes, of course you have to work across the isle and all that. But look at the legislation that this congress puts out and look at how the Republicans are the ones drafting it and they don't allow a single Democrat a single say in what happens in the House. The Senate is then left working on all these compromises and the President hasn't had a single budget passed in his entire time in office (it's always been continuing resolutions, that is, he's continued Bush's budgets, with cuts because of the sequester).

If only we had a candidate that said that bi-partisanship doesn't work in this current toxic environment.

(And yes I am fully aware that Clinton said that they consider her their enemy, I'm just saying.)

I disagree with Biden and think he was throwing some snark out there for whatever reason but the media lapped it up. I don't think it changes anything in any way whatsoever.
