Hillary hit the nail on the head as far as what our comeback should be to ALL GOP objections...

[scheming daemons]

Paraphrasing Hillary to Pence:

"We tried it your way for 8 years. It's gotten us nowhere. President Obama won the election. He has a mandate from the American people to try something different."


That should be our line of response to everything they bitch and moan about.

The stimulus and the economy? We tried it your way for 8 years. Your way failed. We're trying something different now.

Iraq and Afghanistan? We tried it your way for 8 years. Your way failed. We're trying something different now.


Stem Cells? Environment policy? Energy policy? Immigration policy? Interactions with foreign entities? Health care policy?


You name it. The same argument works.


We tried it your way for 8 years. For 28 of the past 40 years. Your way failed.



Those who know me from the primaries will find this next sentence very unlike me:

Go Hillary, you rock!


;-)

1. That's right! So far, I think Hillary is making a great SOS and an

asset to Obama.

[LakeSamish706]

2. "It's gotten us nowhere." Except for this line, it's gotten us somewhere all right

Deep in shit actually....

[FightingIrish]

3. I think Pence was glad his time was up.

She really gave him a verbal knee to the balls.

[AwakeAtLast]

28. I can't believe Pence is all they have left

I live in his district. If he's the GOP mouthpiece, they are grasping for straws!

[Raffi Ella]

4. She DOES ROCK doesn't she!???

:7

I'm so VERY happy to see her detractors from the primaries FINALLY seeing in Hillary what I saw and what I voted for during the primaries. She is AMAZING! a fierce and loyal Democrat and she has President Obama's back and OUR BACKS!

[The Doctor.]

6. Indeed she doth.

Always razor-sharp and steps ahead of any Republicans.

[Zodiak]

8. Gotta agree

As a person who was not a fan of her time in the senate, I definitely say she is an excellent SOS.

[Beacool]

12. Hear, hear!!!

:applause:

[indepat]

5. The 'pukes' way emphatically has not got us nowhere: the 'pukes' way has gotten us

exactly to where we are today: an economy in total shambles as is the stock markets, the capital markets, the banking system, the housing market, the jobs market, the fiscal affairs of the government with two pre-emptive wars thrown in as lagniappe. :P

[DrToast]

7. I'm sure Hillary is enjoying this after all the crap they put her through.*

[Life Long Dem]

9. When you really think of the greater picture...

The GOP, The News Media, MSM, or The Glenn Beck's, do not matter.

Not when it comes to, Stem Cells, The Environment policy, The Energy policy, The Immigration policy, The Interactions with foreign entities, and The Health Care policy!

Thank you.

[burning rain]

10. Proud of Hillary; she's doing a splendid job.

For his part, Pence is most likely trying to pump himself up as a future leader and get the money to roll in. He is a tedious little putz with nothing interesting to say, but he takes a reliable right-wing line, so I bet he has a future of some kind.

[Cha]

11. Did you see that video of her

and pence..it was Awesome!

Thanks to ProSense..

15. Thanks for the video.

Hillary rocks!!!

:headbang:

[JuniperLea]

22. I'm chills head to toe after watching that video!

Thank you so very, very much for posting this link!

She is just too sharp to trip up, and the GOP is so predictable in their stupidity!

:loveya: Hillary!

[Cha]

24. I was chillin', too! And,

freakin' Verklempting:cry::)

[Number23]

38. That's my GIRL! Did she just slay that Pence @sshole or what??

Thank you for posting that! She makes me so proud! :)

[uponit7771]

13. YOU GO GIRL!!!

[Vinca]

14. Hillary is brilliant in her new role.

[Captain Hilts]

16. In other words, "Learn to suck on it and like it." nt

[Captain Hilts]

17. She saw Bubba catch the same shit for 8 years and will clobber anyone doing the same to 'Bam. nt

[Autumn]

18. That woman is absolutely

awesome. She constantly impresses me.:woohoo: :woohoo:

[JohnnyLib2]

19. Solid, solid, solid work, HRC.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[ProSense]

20. Summary: Obama represents change.

Where have I heard that before?

[Captain_Nemo]

36. Yeah, giving money to the banks...wow. Change I can believe in! HA

[jesus_of_suburbia]

21. She is AMAZING. Truly brilliant.

[krispos42]

23. "If you knew what you were doing, why are we in this mess?"

*zing*

[SKKY]

25. That is pretty much what I say to people...

...unfortunately, that usually wins the argument since most of the Repugs I deal with are an inch deep and a yard wide in their understanding of politics.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

26. I actually tried this approach but it just went over their heads. You know what their retort is?

Well...Obama is continuing Bush's mistakes. Or, Bush wasn't a real conservative and Obama is just like Bush. Or..."two wrongs don't make it right."

Seriously, these people suffer from a severe case of cognitive dissonance. Nothing--no amount of reason--works on them!

[calimary]

27. LOVE it! Love HER! Always did. She towers over some of these pinched, vainglorious poseurs.

LOVE the Youtube piece in Post 11!

:toast:

She TOWERS over putzes like him. He'll never be even in the same solar system as her league. In his wildest dreams. Hillary has gravitas, intellect, shrewdness, and a willingness to work for the cause, not just herself or her own power trip. She's taken the biggest and most painful of hits and never lost her cool. She is magnificent!!! An outstanding Secretary of State, but then again, I suspect she'd be outstanding at whatever job she undertook.

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

29. Suck it Pukes, and have another helping of fail.

Nicely done Hillary.

[Captain_Nemo]

30. She was amazing today! as always, off the cuff and brilliant.

I have to say this - as a woman it really makes me proud. If I can see a woman president in my life I will be happy. She, for me, was the one to solve these problems. And when I saw her today, I thought, every girl in this country would be changed by her presence in the Oval Office.

Please, no harsh or derogatory comments - I lived through 2008 and hear enough. I am female and have witnessed men only in the Oval Office all my life.

A woman in the Oval Office? Yes, it matters.

[Tarheel_Dem]

32. I think the country is pretty satisfied with the choice it made, if....

the results of a national election and recent polling are to be believed. Not a slam on Hillary, but your post is so reminiscent of a very bad period at DU. Just sayin'...

[Captain_Nemo]

34. And this is what I mean. women have had "men only" in the oval office and it is

completely discarded by, and I will say this, the "left." I am a member so I can say it.
The sexism on the left, and here at DU was awful. Bitch, Whore: two words I fought quite a bit here.
Being female and reading and hearing a woman be called a "bitch" isn't fun.

And , the country is polarized our money is going back to the banks who stole it (Geither, Rubin and SUmemrs.)

He' is no messiah.

[Tarheel_Dem]

39. Ah, there it is. I thought you were making a point, and I'm glad you've

just come right out with it. But, you and all the rest of your PUMA buddies will have to come to grips with the fact that the country, by and large, supports this president as did most Democrats in the primaries.

I'm not sure why you would want to start a fight on a completely beautiful thread about our S.O.S. What's the point of reopening old wounds?

[BlooInBloo]

31. Yup - she does very well repeating what Obama has said any number of times.

[Tarheel_Dem]

33. Bloo..you always seem to sum things up so neatly.

:rofl:
