find out that Whirlpool owns Maytag and Frigidaire. It's all coming from the same HQ, just the brand names are different.

The bizarre thing is that people support Mrs Clinton and claim to be liberal. Those two things don't go together, at all.

Let alone with Clinton.

Sanders is obviously better than all 3, but we already knew that.

If it provides them with facts, then this who is who stuff doesn't matter so much. And Hillary may get advice from a lot of different providers for all we know. So I think this is weak sauce to indicate it means she will let them "advise" her to take right wing positions. Certainly she will not take the same positions as Cruz and Rubio do. I would imagine Hillary makes up her own mind after the receipt of the "advice."

is apparently very poor at building an internal, independent, reliable, well-informed campaign staff.

Hat tip for good spin tho

and a lot happens every day, so that's not a really good argument.

Facts are facts, no matter where they come from.

this is routine stuff that is silly to use as a battering ram. This OP makes no specific arguments against any specific foreign policy position of Hillary.

which is why it's so laughable to suggest that "Bernie should have them too".

This consulting firm is an emblematic microcosm of how our so-called "2 party system"
is fast becoming a tweedle-dumb v. tweedle-dee extravaganza to mesmerize the masses
into believing they still have a real democratic form of government.

Beacon was hatched by "former officials from the State Department, Department of
Defense, and the CIA"; and "quickly had more than a dozen clients, primarily defense
contractors". Many of it's principles are former Bush Administration spooks and
war-hawks.

There's an inherently unsavory agenda here, i.e. influence peddling for endless-war profiteering;
with no indication of any countervailing interest in peacemaking, conflict-resolution, or 'war
as a last resort'.

nothing is perfect, but people who worked at the State Department will be the experts.

i agree to a point, but doesn't that mostly depend on the political agenda and/or the financial ties of who hires or appoints State Dept. "experts"?

Think GWBush's Department of State.

And are yelling about Cruz and Rubio mixing with an organization that gives information to Hillary.

It's a small world after all.

then fine.

Are you seriously suggesting Hillary is gaming the Beacon bevy of war-profiteers to
advance a "Progressive" foreign policy agenda?

Those players were at State doing PNAC's business, chums of Bush, not Obama.



Our woman in Ukraine, Victoria Nuland, is married to PNAC co-founder Robert Kagan

Robert Kagan's brother is Frederick Kagan

Frederick Kagan's spouse is Kimberly Kagan

Brilliant people, big ideas, and a lot of PNAC channeling Cheney at State and out of the the pirate sektor. And the PNAC approach to international relations means more wars without end for profits without cease, among other things detrimental to democracy, peace and justice.
