Everyone in the world knows Hillary is a bald faced liar. Former New York Times columnist, the late William Safire, called her habit of lying congenital. Even her supporters know she is dishonest, self-centered, and paranoid. They simply don't care. They are going to vote for her anyway. She is Richard Nixon in drag.

despite your cynicism these videos are still very helpful. there is a hardcore 20% who will continue to live in delusion - it's the other 25% of her "natural supporters" that need to see this video

They should see the video put together by Citizens United. It's brutal.

I know that Bernie Sanders is not like this at all -- he's honest to a fault, whereas Hillary has no problem lying thru her teeth, as the video proves again and again and again. This is why I could NEVER vote for insane Hillary -- because she'll do anything under the sun to get elected, period.

Hillary isn't insane, she's just a power-hungry sociopath. She's of the sort where truth is dependent on who manages to make the better argument, like most of our representatives.
[–] ideasware 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
I actually agree -- your version is better than mine. But Bernie is really not like most of those "representatives" -- he is blunt and ruthlessly honest, not a politician at all. And that is precisely why he'll make a great president.

I was expecting a three-hour movie.

this seems to wisely go for the best cases, with directly contradicting video footage, about highly important topics.

I know I'll believe her when she says she won't start any wars!

What a cunt. I hope she never get's elected and goes bankrupt. People like her are the root cause of government corruption. Hillary Clinton will sway with the wind. Hillary clinton is all like "Vote for me cause I got a va-gina!"
[–] Empire_of_the_mind [S] ago
making vagina and cunt jokes about Clinton is SOOO played out.

1) The distinction between grandparents and great grandparents is not that big. Perhaps her great grandparents were immigrants, which makes the grandparent statement a relatively small corruption.
2) She didn't lie when she said she was a full supporter of gay marriage, because she may have changed her mind. She's still a cunt for flip flopping and in general, though.
[–] Empire_of_the_mind [S] 1 point 1 point 2 points (+2|-1) ago
1 - not really. the thing is, you actually know your grandparents, if only through stories told by your parents. That's why claiming her grandparents were immigrants is relevant - it gives her a more direct experience. this is obviously calculated horse shit
2 - be serious.
[–] HoneyNutStallmans ago (edited ago)
It could also be the case that her grandparents may not have talked about it. Who knows? She didn't give/make up an anecdote about their alleged immigration anyway.
All I'm saying is that the lie is petty and is nothing compared to her lie about being under "sniper fire" in Bosnia.
She's a flip-flop and therefore a cunt, but that doesn't meant she didn't actually change her mind.
