Are you finding this is true? Months ago it seemed like handshake-gate was debateable...maybe she did extend the hand like she said, we just didn't see it the right way...but now it's like...well of course she lied! Look at all the other things she's done! It has gone progressively worse, and it's discouraging that she may even sink lower than the RFK thing.

1. Sad thing: she continues to surprise many with how vile she can get....
Using assassination as a campaign strategy, for instance, surprised many people. They knew the Clintons were vile human beings, but didn't anticipate she would sink that low.

We can't make the same mistake we made with Bush Jr....continuing to deny the obvious because we didn't want to admit to ourselves that, for instance, a sitting president would sit silently and allow a massive terrorist attack against the U.S. to occur....or would lie us into slaughter in Iraq.

We must anticipate what she will do so that we can react appropriately and not just sit there in stunned denial. Bush Jr got away with a lot because Americans were so traumatized by the shit he participated in. We can't allow the Clinton the same opportunity.

2. This is why so many of her supporters across the board are peeling away from her.
