This Hillary supporter would be the first in line to support Bernie Sanders against the GOP and their scumbag ilk! Wonder what Bernie would have said to Roby if she had asked him if he were home alone all night?

Except maybe Jim Webb. That guy is effing creepy, and I have thought so for years, since I used to live in Virginia and watched him on the local stage. Eww.

They sure know how to shoot themselves in the foot. Not that I'm complaining.

And I, too, would absolutely support Bernie if he becomes the nominee. I don't have any dislike for any candidate, I just have preferences.

When it comes to shooting themselves in the foot, the GOP's aim is on-target every time.

It's Howdy Dowdy time!!!!

I said the same thing to my husband all day. What an endorsement!

Great thread, Nance. Hillary was fantastic today. Very Presidential.

... but you have to admit that they do it really, really well.

Buncha true idiots on full display.

Today was a good day for Democrats.

The Republicans are going to spend the next 9 years flailing at Hillary Clinton, trying to find something, ANYTHING to bring her down. And they will have no more success than they had with Obama.

People got so sick of the Rethuglican scandalmongering in the 1990s that it made them like Bill even more than before. Cons don't ever seem to learn from past mistakes.

a Republican Congressman. They should just drink the hemlock and spare us the rest of their pathetic lives.

She was calm, intelligent, and mature. The Rethugs were openly hostile, repeating questions that they wouldn't let her answer, and openly baiting her for the "gotcha" moment that she never gave them.

Did anyone else notice in the last hour when Gowdy was grandstanding? First, his face was so shiny that it looked like somebody sprayed it with shellac. Second, there was a guy sitting behind him that was peeking around the side of the chair. When he finally stopped peeking, you could see the top of his head just a little behind Gowdy's chair. Let's just say that they could use a little help in staging.

I'm rooting for Bernie. I don't hate Hillary. As I heard on the radio today, all that was missing was "I'm Hillary Clinton, and I approve of this message!" It's always fun to watch one "girl" kick the stuffing out of a bunch of bully-boys. How about a new bumper sticker: My Secretary of State kicked your Congressman's Ass!

What a bunch of cretins.

Since my move from NYC to GA in March of this year I have not been checking-in with DU as frequently as I did before. Back then it was always a pleasure to read your posts. Once again, your thoughts have not let me down. I agree completely and am also grateful (even if still astonished by the buffoonery) to the latest GOP Benghazi Investigation for showing us who they really are and who is far more qualified to be the next POTUS over any of their candidates. I must admit that I have been leaning Bernie, but today I found a new respect for HRC. I will gladly support either of them to be the next POTUS.

Any Democrat or Bernie before any GOP RWNJ!

Out of bad comes SO MUCH good! And with the GOP, you know it was unintentional!

I would echo what Nance says here - if it were Bernie in the crosshairs, I'd be there yelling and screaming at them and posting all kinds of shit about how unsavory they are and idiotic they are and mean-spirited they are to persecute that poor man. That's how I felt about that committee (other than the Dems on there) when they were persecuting Hillary.

What I also liked, btw, was the language that various reporters have been using, either on camera or in print, to describe the hearing yesterday. Word choices like "inquisition" and "ordeal." GOOD. Good-good-good! Further to push the framing! Plant those seeds and let 'em take root! All the better for perception management.
