Shifty Pony posted:I disagree with your assumption here and the intent you ascribe to it. I agree with you on why people like that woman feels that way since she (like most of us) has very little agency in how the world works which can be terrifying. However this sort of messaging that feeds into her fear and creates a specific target of the poor has been coming down from powerful interests for years. Those people are very much trying to destroy the safety net. I disagree that she is merely trying to reassure herself though. That might be part of it but showing that you disapprove of other people and trying to make them feel bad or responsible for their plights is becoming a big thing.

hangedman1984 posted:Wow, what a gigantic oval office! Seriously. That wasn't even the conservative fear of the welfare mooch buying lobster, steaks, and expensive desserts. He was buying groceries with his family and even that is now too much. There's also always the "don't have kids you can't afford!!" bullshit which doesn't help the kids that are already alive and need food unless they know a magical spell to reverse time and unbirth a child. Of course that solution is just a cowardly way to say sex havers should be punished but they know that's not as popular as Sensible economic solutions.

Clinton insiders have been pointing to her work on the Iran deal as foreign policy credentials, saying her fingerprints were all over it. It turns out she was trying to break it: quote:“They shared the same tactic, which was engagement, but they envisioned different endgames,” said Karim Sadjadpour, an expert on Iran at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. “The president’s endgame was, ‘I’m a guy who can bridge differences. I’ve bridged races and countries all my life, so I’m going to be able to resolve this.’”

Not surprising. Disappointing, though.

I wonder if she learned the real lesson she was trying to teach the Iranians. Probably not. I have a feeling that her foreign policy isn't going to be very good.

Rick Scott flew over to California to tell companies to move their operations to Florida, where we will never have a $15 minimum wage. In response, Jerry Brown wrote a letter telling him to start worrying about climate change instead. You may remember that Florida government officials are officially banned from talking about global warming.

Acebuckeye13 posted:It's funny how "Break" and "Didn't think it would work but pursued it anyway, though with less vigor than others" apparently mean the same thing these days. Also it just means Clinton is just more cynical than Obama, She was fine with the deal, but she completely expected the deal to break down from Tehran's side. And was preparing for that to happen. That's exactly how I want a Secretary of State to think. Work towards a solution, but also expect and prepare for what happens if that solution breaks down.

Just add words that make her seem more nefarious and/or illiberal and/or a secret disciple of Barry Goldwater and Henry Kissinger.

Boon posted:So two things: quote:“It’s not enough just to say yes to this deal,” she declared last October. “We have to say, ‘Yes, and.’ Yes, and we will enforce it with vigor and vigilance. Yes, and we will embed it in a broader strategy to confront Iran’s bad behavior in the region. Yes, and we will begin from Day 1 to set the conditions so Iran knows it will never be able to get a nuclear weapon.” Don't pretend like she hasn't tried to paint Obama as naive. quote:- Is the NYT on Hillary's side again? I have a hard time following when they're pro and when they're anti Sorry, who are they supposed to be for? What I mean is that the Times, just like NPR or any other supposedly respectable news outlet, will never state the obvious when it calls out an establishment politician. You have to use a little intelligence to see what is being laid out in front of you. In this case what is being laid out is that Hillary was reluctant to do her part in getting the deal.

Read between the lines man!! Can't you see what's going on here!!! Maggie Hassan is the current NH governor and she's going up against Republican Kelly Ayotte for NH Senate in November.

quote:After she left the State Department, Mrs. Clinton diverged from Mr. Obama on a central tactical question: whether to impose harsh new sanctions on the Iranians after they elected Hassan Rouhani, who had run for president seeking better relations with the West to ease Iran’s economic isolation. Mrs. Clinton was swayed by many in Congress, as well as by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, who argued Iran was so desperate for a deal that tightening the vise would have extracted better terms. The only difference is she would have negotiated a bit harder than Obama did, She was ok with a deal, She just differed slightly from Obama in the sense that she would have tried to impose more restrictions. While Obama was satisfied with the deal as it was. She wasn't trying to break the deal up, at worst she wanted to negotiate a bit more and add more restrictions with Iraq in such a weak position. Obama just wanted to get the deal done as is without the risks that come with squeezing them. Having Disagreements with how hard to push a negotiating party =/= Trying to break up a deal.

The continual move to turn trials more and more into spectacle instead of being about objective truth(I know this has always been the case, but jury selection seems to have gotten worse from the outside) is poisonous to actual justice happening.

I don't think Maureen Dowd has any influence at NYT. Them having it out for Hillary is news to me. e: I mean, Hillary probably thinks they have it out for her, along with everyone else who hasn't given her money. I wonder what betrayal number she has assigned them on her spreadsheet.

It's a Secretary of State's job to consider all options and bring them up. Especially something at this level of importance. If I was a president and my secretary of state had concerns or thoughts about the on going negotiations, or even bringing up other people's opinions. I would be pissed as gently caress if they held back because they thought disagreeing with me was a bad thing. It's not like she was actively trying to sabotage the deal which is how you tried to paint it initially. But actually nevermind, just keep moving those goal posts.
