Nintendo Kid posted:You dropped your "hurr durr Iraq" thing when you were reminded every Democrat candidate save Chafee has either supported the Iraq war or voted to fund it. Didn't drop poo poo, it's still the worst thing Hillary has done and represents a huge, black mark on her candidacy. Imagine if she'd had the courage to vote against the war: she could use that against her inevitable pro-war opponent. Instead, she's just another lovely warmonger.

Vox Nihili posted:I dunno, according to you, voting never matters unless you cast the "tiebreaking" vote. You could probably start a new theory on democracy with that sort of breathtaking insight. Admit that your maple grandpa is equally responsible for the Iraq war by knowingly funding it, or admit Hillary wasn't. Again, the only actual Democrat candidate that isn't in any sense is Chafee.

Nintendo Kid posted:Hillary Clinton is not responsible for the Iraq war, no matter how you whine. And boy you just hate knowing how wrong you are. I think the point is that, there's some people who voted for the war (the warmongers) and a few who didn't. Some people kept a cool head, thought about the consequence of the war, asked questions and ultimately voted against it.  is not one of those people.I don't know about you, but some people like that their country's leader spend more time deciding about starting a war than what they will wear that morning. Pant suits... She'll wear pant suits.

This is why some do well and others do poorly. Indeed, " bankers aren't some cabal of moustache twiddling cartoon villains," they have independent thoughts. Nintendo Kid posted:Admit that your maple grandpa is equally responsible for the Iraq war by knowingly funding it, or admit Hillary wasn't. Again, the only actual Democrat candidate that isn't in any sense is Chafee. That isn't remotely true, if Sanders had his way the war would never have happened. Hillary got her way: The war happened. Your denial is loving palpable.

Nintendo Kid posted:Thanks for showing him voting in approval of war funding on multiple occasions, and grats on owning yourself. Straight form that fuckign page you obviously did not read: quote:Arria’s statement is correct but also distorts Sanders’ stance on funding the Iraq war by omission. His voting record on the bills that funded the Iraq war show that he voted against them more often than he voted for them. Additionally, his ‘yea’ votes show that there were other considerations at play. Do you even bother reading, you look at a title, form an opinion and then make an rear end of yourself on this site? There's a reason why you were banned from every loving thread. Haven't you learned anything? E: here, since you can't be bothered to read the loving site: quote:The Bush administration, backed by a Republican-controlled House and Senate, made a nasty habit of funding its disastrous occupation of Iraq on an emergency basis in order to minimize Congressional scrutiny, circumvent legal limits on the federal government’s debt ceiling, and understate the true cost of the war. The first time Sanders voted ‘yea’ to an Iraq war spending bill came in 2006 when the bill included funding for Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. The second time he voted ‘yea’ was when an amendment he inserted into the bill giving a $1 million grant to the Vermont Department of Veterans Affairs (the VA) to help returning veterans cope with their health care and mental health needs upon returning home. The third time he voted ‘yea’ was when the legislation incorporated a massive expansion of G.I. Bill benefits that Sanders co-sponsored and the Bush administration opposed guaranteeing full scholarships to veterans, including activated National Guard troops and reservists, with three years of service attending any public, in-state university and expanded benefits for students at private colleges and for graduate schools. The last time he voted ‘yea’ was when he gave his consent, along with the rest of the entire Senate, funding the Iraq war’s end as President Barack Obama removed all U.S. troops from the country.

Icelands issues were due to an incompetent regulatory body letting their banks hold osmething like 6x the nation's gdp in foreign currency denominated debt. Ireland had the same isseus the rest of europe had. none of these get fixed by making banks smaller (if anything having smaller banks would have made both of these worse). and even if you disagree with this glass steagall doesnt even regulate bank size, so why is that legislation used to talk about hillary bein weak on banks
