2016 Democratic Platform and Convention

[Denny Crane]

You can't explain to me because you apparently don't understand the way congressional hearings work.

It's ok to hear both sides of the story. It's not some sort of constitutional violation for Democrats to allow her to say what she wants to say, in addition to answering the questions the Republicans want to ask her.

Sure. Oversight means "collaborate with the people you are supposed to oversee."

NOT!

Nothing prevented any senator from asking any question that they wanted to. You look so desperate trying to find something, anything, you can pin on Hillary.

If Hillary wears open-toed shoes you'd probably claim they were 'scandals'. Hey, there's another one for your bumper-sticker business...

Exactly. But Barfo is in Barfoland again.

I don't think the idea was for him to ask the questions he wanted to. He wants to keep his position on his committees and to keep getting funds from the DNC for his reelection.

We know how the DNC works, thanks to WikiLeaks.

Did this list come from the desk of one Donald J Trump? lol

They came from Wikileaks via Seth Rich, a DNC staffer who was murdered shortly after the leak was published.

Right... so we are supposed to believe that if it weren't for pressure from the DNC, he would have been, what, much tougher on her than the republicans on the panel?

Or have you forgotten that there are republicans on the panel? Or do you think they too bow down to the DNC?

You are complaining that the hearing wasn't sufficiently one-sided. That's pretty silly, frankly.

I believe what the emails say.

If it were democrats running things, there would be no oversight at all. Saw that in the early Obama years.

Sick Hillary had to leave the 9/11 memorial today.

Hillary is hot.....I'm glad my wife got through menopause a few years back....if Hilary is going through menopause, that's a scary president

At 70 years old, she's not going through menopause.

She's probably 20 years past that.

 

[Denny Crane]

Anniversary of Benghazi.

I don't get the joke. Must not have been very good

 

[riverman]

I now feel compelled to search the web for evidence of 70 year old women experiencing menopause....Betty White would have the answer

What is the democrats position on companies such as dell laying off 3000 workers and supposedly filing for 5000 H1b visas for foreign workers? The same as the Republicans? You know, fuck American workers.

depends upon the circumstance...I'd need to know why they were laid off to begin with...I'd also need to know what jobs they were applying to fill with foreign workers....highly skilled or not highly skilled. This is how the world works now....if my company is not competitive I'd do what it takes to fix it. In my current line of work, the laziest people staffing shifts out of 8 who work with my client are all Americans...the hardest working are green card holders..specifically Filipino, Hispanic and Asian.....the majority of my coworkers are Americans and more than half I've experienced working with are late for shifts...chain smoke cigarettes outside to avoid tasks they leave for the next shift and call in sick or quit more often than others....I wouldn't run a company with these folks...I'd hire every foreign green card worker on my staff and give them all raises....they earn it more....this is just a sample of the circumstances I work around.

Of course you would. I'd pay people based on what they do and not how long they are at work each day. The best thing that ever happened to me was finding a job where the harder I work the more I make.

Even if what you experience is true, most of these companies do it to save money. Disney was making the displaced workers train their replacements to get their severance.

That you think it is ok to just keep importing workers while millions of Americans sit at home doing nothing is the core of our differences. I don't ever accept that things are just how the world works now. They are because people let it happen.
