Why is NoHope Hillary coordinating with a racist/sexist who put a sex molester on the supreme court?

[last1standing]

As we all know, David Brock, the guy NoHope Hillary is coordinating with to smear Bearnie Sanders with stories of sexism, racism, communism, and every other ism out there, worked very hard to smear Anita Hill when she stood up against Clarence Thomas in his confirmation hearings.

For those who may not remember the details, Anita Hill accused Thomas of sexually harassing and molesting her (who can forget leaving one of his pubic hairs on her can of coca-cola?). Instead of using facts to discredit her, Brock later admitted that he knowingly lied in order to destroy her credibility (sound familiar?). One of his 'clever' quotes was that she was "a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty."

Today, David Brock is NoHope Hillary Clinton's closest ally in smearing Bernie Sanders with lies and distortions. Why aren't her supporters condemning his presence on her campaign? Why are they not pushing for her to denounce his superPAC and demand that he stop raising dark money from mega-banks and multinational corporations in her name?

Why are so many willing to ignore the works of David "a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty" Brock?

1. surprised that Hillary has yet to repudiate

I did not know of the Anita Hill connection. This should get broader coverage. I wonder if his view is that Clinton is the weaker candidate in general...

[msanthrope]

14. Why would she repudiate him? Are you unaware of his later work? nt

[noamnety]

2. I think it's a smart move.

It helps to broaden her appeal beyond just to those who support women's rights.

[Bjorn Against]

3. Maybe he can lead the coalition of Racists and Misogynistic Pigs for Hillary

[Fumesucker]

7. Exactly, it broadens her appeal to people who would never ever vote for her

[msongs]

4. you forgot any evidence that she is actually coordinating with him but don't let that stop you :-)

[jeff47]

5. They were so proud of their "Internet loophole" they bragged to the WaPo about coordinating

back when the PAC was set up.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2015/05/12/how-a-super-pac-plans-to-coordinate-directly-with-hillary-clintons-campaign/

So yes, there is plenty of evidence.

6. "Why are so many willing to ignore the works of...

... David "a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty" Brock?

Anything and I mean ANY-GAWDDAMN-THING to win. It defines Hillary Clinton. There is no lie too wrong. There is no trick too dirty. There is no smear too vile. No character assassination too low.

It's how she and apparently her supporters roll.

8. Name-calling a Democrat on a Democratic board is not wise and shameful and makes you look petty

[Hekate]

11. If she's the nominee they will never be able to vote for her, due to their primal disgust...

...at her supposed lack of basic human decency, which disgust they are stoking at every turn.

I mean, I wouldn't be able to cast a vote for someone I truly believed these things of, would you?

[last1standing]

19. I'm calling out "nutty and slutty" Brock for what he admits doing.

Why do you not care about his actions?

[JRLeft]

25. Some of us won't.

[last1standing]

17. Shameful is defending "Nutty and Slutty" Brock when you know what he did.

And you know how disgusting and unforgivable it was to destroy a respected law professor in order to place a sex molester on the Supreme Court.

And that is exactly what you're supporting when you try to dismiss his actions.

[CharlotteVale]

9. Their silence on this is deafening.

[Hekate]

12. I am silently Alerting on the OP, but that's okay, because it will stand...

And you can all be as noisy about that as you like. Ta-ta.

[Autumn]

10. That she hasn't repudiated the man who slimed her husband and her

speaks volumes to her lack of decency and character.

[msanthrope]

13. She forgave David when he asked for her forgiveness. I'm shocked that so many Democrats

Here seem to be fairly ignorant about the relationship between David Brock, his partner, and HRC.

[Autumn]

15. I don't give a damn what her relationship is with him. I wasted a lot of time defending her

husband and her from that slime sucking pig and his attacks on them. When that fucker asks me for forgiveness for that and for what he did to Anita Hill I will be more than happy to tell him to fuck off. I wasted my fucking time defending her and I'm not about to defend her again. From anything.

[msanthrope]

16. Well....In his book, he does just that....asks for forgiveness. And I think the power of love

is a beautiful thing.

[Autumn]

18. Yeah cool, sliming women is a beautiful thing

[Depaysement]

26. Oh, yes

David Brock, "the Clinton's prodigal son."

[ucrdem]

20. Brock's article was published in 1992, a year after the confirmation hearings,

so he didn't put Thomas or anyone else on the court.

Describing an article he wrote for The American Spectator, a conservative magazine, in 1992, which became the basis for his book on Ms. Hill . . .

http://www.nytimes.com/2001/06/27/us/book-author-says-he-lied-his-attacks-anita-hill-bid-aid-justice-thomas.html

And Brock apologized in 2001 for bashing without first checking the facts. Think about it.

[last1standing]

21. And yet he's still pushing lies and smears. Apologies don't cut it.

He's still the racist/sexist sex molester enabler he always was. His kind is what's destroying the Democratic Party.

[ucrdem]

22. He apologized for lying about someone he didn't know.

That's a hint.

[aikoaiko]

23. And the jury results are in....

24. Sanders fans are really grasping now.

I guess when your candidate has plateaued, there's not much else to do.

[Kalidurga]

27. I'm sorry it must be hard to go from 90% down to 51%.

[NYC Liberal]

30. I'm sorry Sanders is still losing.

Must be tough.

[Kalidurga]

32. He is still behind in some polls.

He will win New Hampshire and Iowa, probably Nevada. It's not a stretch to think he could win the nomination after that.

[NYC Liberal]

33. He's going to lose Iowa, likely NH but it will be close.

From there out he's really got nothing.

[Kalidurga]

34. We will see in about 7 days.

[peacebird]

28. Wait, we plateaued back in aug, the in sept, in oct , again in nov, & dec....

Yet still Bernie keeps gaining support int the polls and RISING against Hillary....

I guess it is still true, the more people hear Hillary the less they trust and like her.

[cheapdate]

29. Does CrazyPants Sanders know that NoHope Hillary is in cahoots with sexist/racist/sex molesters?

Go Democrats! Yay DU!

[artislife]

31. Anita Hill.

She deserves more from so called feminists.

[Truprogressive85]

35. It's kinda sad

David Brock is the perfect example of white male privilege! And don you forget it


He Made money from smearing a black woman



Did he give the money he made from the book to Ms.Hill ?

Did he public apologies to her
