[merrily]

1. .

[bunnies]

2. Incoming!

[Fumesucker]

3. The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire

[Aerows]

4. And here it is.

That was exceptional.

[bunnies]

5. Yep. Right on target. nt

[jfern]

20. Hillary is an expert at dodging sniper fire, though

[JonLeibowitz]

6. Volumes II available here

I am worried that Volume III may be lost forever.

[Metric System]

7. It's as if some of you have conceded that Hillary will be the nominee and are resorting to childish

and nasty attacks because you have nothing better to do than smear a good Democrat.

[Aerows]

8. She has done more in the last two days

to smear *herself* than anyone could ever do.

Don't look for my shoulder to cry on when she crashes during the Primary, because I will be too busy getting someone elected that can actually win for the Democratic party in the General Election.

[jfern]

21. What did she do in the last 2 days?

[Aerows]

23. Pretending she tried to join the Marines

Stolen valor has no refuge with me.

[Hepburn]

9. How about instead of a personal attack on other posters...

...discussing Hillary's statements.

[peacebird]

28. They can't. The articles are true, rather than reply to facts they prefer to attack the messenger

[Fumesucker]

11. I wasn't going to post this until I heard the "tried to join the Marines" story

A story I find ludicrously incredible.

One ludicrous story deserves another.

[KoKo]

33. I know....

its a hard choice these days as to decide what's Fair in a Contested Election to post and worry about Backlash...and yet we are Supposed to be a DEMOCRACY with FREEDOM OF SPEECH FOR ALL CITIZENS.

So....one often has to make hard choices...but, if one Really Believes in "Freedom of Speech" to provide Information & Counter's to the Corporate Controlled Mainstream Media then it is important to try to keep Information and Humor/Satire out there.. for Intelligent Inquiring Voters to be challenged.

So, while this might have some folks "Hair on Fire" some "Cringing" and others "Applauding"...we are supposed to live in a country that Fights Wars to bring "Freedom of Speech" and "Democracy" to Third Worlders....so We Certainly Should Support those same Values here at Home in the USA.

PRACTICe WHAT WE PREACH! Or WHO THE HELL ARE WE?

K&R Your Post!

[Logical]

12. You whine a lot! Nt

[morningfog]

13. We are fucked if Hillary is the nominee.

[Aerows]

24. This asshattery that is a hallmark of her campaign

is going to destroy it for us.

We have GOT to save the Democratic Party from itself - Clinton is going to be a free-fall.

[840high]

17. I don't smear Bernie - he

is a good Democrat.

[artislife]

19. "Nasty attacks and smear a good Democrat"

+Truth about a human.

[whatchamacallit]

10. Thanks, I needed that

Too good.

[MrMickeysMom]

14. From the comments section...

by LYING, not misspeaking, but LYING on several occassions about her Tuzla experience and also about her role in Northern Ireland.
And how about her insistence that she NEVER supported NAFTA when there is also video showing that she did...
She's becoming a caricature of herself.

[840high]

16. Spot on. ty

[Scuba]

25. She's the Third Way's Ben Carson.

[MrMickeysMom]

26. Oh... but, just a little better at performing magic...

... Look! It's been my idea ALL along!

[George II]

15. An EIGHT YEAR OLD article?????

[Luminous Animal]

18. And most delightfully skewers Hillary as a big giant fat liar.

[George II]

45. Has Sanders NEVER told a lie? Have you NEVER told a lie? Know anyone who has NEVER told a lie?

[Fumesucker]

22. What makes it utterly delicious is that the piece was originally a blog post on Balloon-Juice.com

A site that used to be Obamaniacs in 2008 but is now utterly over the Moon for Hillary in 2015. You would be far more comfortable there than here but it's a lot buggier software and harder format to navigate and there's one glaring difference, there is basically no moderation and people will tell you to FOAD or DIAF or GFY in the twitch of a hummingbird's ass.

Go ahead, Google a snippet of text and you'll find the original, it's still there, don't take my word for it.

[KoKo]

36. Ahhh... "Balloon Juice" ....I remember it, Well.....

40. "in the twitch of a hummingbird's ass"

[beam me up scottie]

44. Lighten up, George, it's hilarious!

There's never a bad time for good satire!

[Capt. Obvious]

27. That made me laugh

[NCTraveler]

29. Hard to tell what I just read.

Is this from Hills emails?
Is it another sex fantasy written by Sanders?
Is is a person on the Internet writing it?
The intro was so disjointed in its writing I'm not sure what I just read.

[Flying Squirrel]

31. It's posts like this that have kept you off my ignore list

I don't know if you are really clueless or just pretending.

[NCTraveler]

32. Truly clueless.

I don't like to pretend.

[KoKo]

34. Parody/Satire from a Site that was for Obama and is now for Hillary...

is what I've read about the post..

Whatever...I think DU's own Will Pitt did a similar here on DU about that incident with Hillary.

Brian Williams got a Time Out and Down Salary for "Over Statements" of his Reporting Expertise in War Zone...so...

[KingCharlemagne]

30. She would make an excellent REMF - nt

[KoKo]

35. For those of us Acronym Impaired...is THIS what you mean?

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=REMF
Top Definition
REMF
Rear Echelon Mother Fucker. One who has no frontline or combat experience, and therefore makes huge errors at expense of human life.

The REMF's decisions make sense only if you think of human beings as statistics. This is the main problem with REMFs- they think of people as numbers.

EXAMPLE:
Shit! That REMF canceled the supply drop! We're on our own for this one!

[KingCharlemagne]

38. exactly! see nicks take on daisy and jay in the great Gatsby for my verdict

On bill and Hillary as 'careless people.'

She is a real piece of work, that one.

[KoKo]

42. The Full Quote:

And, yes...it does remind one of the "Power Couple."

Quote from Chapter 9:

I couldn't forgive him or like him, but I saw that what he had done was, to him, entirely justified. It was all very careless and confused. They were careless people, Tom and Daisy – they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

37. I wonder what her screen name is on COD

And Xbox or PSN? Please feel free to make a guess below

[deutsey]

39. I'm sorry, but good satire transcends party factionalism

This is just brilliant satire, imo, right up there with the old National Lampoon in its heyday (early to mid '70s) and is on par with Michael O'Donoghue or Doug Kenney in their prime.

Sinbad and Sheryl Crow?

[Art_from_Ark]

41. This thread is comedy gold

[Fumesucker]

43. I really wasn't going to post this and then I heard that "tried to join the Marines" story

Trotted out on veterans day no less.

The number of posters here who tried to defend that pathetic and illogical twaddle made it clear Hillary did not deserve the consideration, so....
