HC on Steven Colbert

[fadedrose]

I'll watch as much as I could stand....SNL was okay with HC, but who wouldn't be good appearing with Kate McKinnen with SNL's writers?

1. She was great.

#HillYes

2. I listened to her talk about banks

and I know now how she knows what to say.

Her staff listens to Bernie's speeches and whatever gets the most screaming and applause they incorporate into Hillary's next speech..

Tonight, it was Bernie's saying banks that are too big to fail are too big and should be broken up.

He's been saying that since 1990 or so.....

She wouldn't be catching on if she weren't copying Bernie.

3. Yah okay...

You realize these ideas aren't just Sanders? That there are several people in the party who are right there with him.

[fadedrose]

4. Like Elizabeth Warren

and not to mention, the late Teddy Roosevelt, who succeeded in doing it....

5. This is the same bogus charge leveled at Hillary about income inequality

Problem is, she was talking about income inequality during her 2008 campaign too.

And I will bet you, since the 2008 campaign happened under the backdrop of an economic downturn due to banks and financial system misdeeds, she was talking about the banks back then too.

What is this odd arrogance with some Sanders supporters that they think no one discussed many of these issues before him?

[fadedrose]

6. Maybe it's more significant when Bernie says these things

because he didn't go around to all of Wall Street giving speeches for which he charged $100,00 to $300,000 for 20 minutes.

It doesn't seem likely that these fortune companies want to hear ANYONE talk about income equality and busting up banks.


Somebody is getting sandbagged - those companies are too smart, so that only leaves the low-class, uneducated, unwashed democrats... to believe the inequality stuff.

I read enough Grimm's fairy tales to know that all apples are not good for you.

7. It's less significant because he has a lower profile and is recognized as a gadfly

who no one takes seriously.

[fadedrose]

8. He's not the only one not taken seriously

I don't take HC seriously. Either telling untruths or copying what other popular candidates are saying.

I do like whoever is picking out her clothes lately. Her harlequin outfits were just too silly and loud and that's another reason I could not take her seriously.

No experience with gadflys. Do you know any others besides Bernie? Gadflys must be a good thing to be. Too bad there aren't more. There are female gadflys aren't there? You're the expert.

9. You don't need to. She will be the next President. nt

10. May god help us...

I am starting to wish I believed in one.
