Robert Reich--Why is HRC Stooping So Low?
Monday, December 03, 2007
Why is HRC stooping So Low?

I’m becoming increasingly concerned about the stridency and inaccuracy of charges in Iowa -- especially coming from my old friend. While I’m as hard-boiled as they come about what’s said in campaigns, I just don’t think Dems should stoop to this.

8. Sorry....I guess some of us work for a living...
I just got home from work and did a check before posting. I did not see any posting on this. I do NOT deliberately post the same crap over and over as some have claimed. I guess some people just spend their entire day doing this CRAP?

15. I know... that's why I gave you the link.
And FWIW some of us are disabled, have a little more time to spend here, and don't appreciate comments like the one you made.

17. I don't appreciate comments that I don't have anything better to do...
...than post the same crap over and over again. I work during the day and I don't have time to monitor every single freaking post. There was nothing I said that was offensive to disabled people.

23. There was never any attempt to offend you...
Only to point out that some of us are not able to monitor every post on DU and I was referring to the poster below who said I had nothing better to do than to post the same crap over and over. If you read more into what I said, I aplogize. It was not my intent.

31. It should be posted repeatedy . This is extremely significant. Some have not seen it.
Edited on Mon Dec-03-07 06:21 PM by drbob99
By the way, how many times were those meaningless stale polls from Iowa State and Pew research posted today?

3. Told you Obama groupies have nothing to do but post the same
crap over and over and over. You used to be able to come to this site and see informative stuff. But since the groupies took over the site all you see is Hillary hate...Hillary hate. It is really getting sickening. They are ruining DU. I've got so I just skip the hate messages but then there's usually nothing left.

4. I don't like the sexual connotation of "groupie"... "cultist" is really more accurate

6. This is like schoolyard name-calling...
Typical from some of those supporting Hillary Clinton... it appears to be a pattern.

5. Robert Reich has made a point of calling Bill Clinton on his crap as well
Hillary Clinton has served as an elected official in the U.S. Senate for not quite eight years, and before that a First Lady in the White House. Obama has so far held elective office for almost twelve years, at both levels of government – first as an Illinois state senator and then as a U.S. Senator. Before that he was a community organizer among Chicago’s poor, and then a civil rights lawyer – two experiences that in my view are critically relevant to anyone seeking to become president of all Americans. Obama’s international experience comes first hand – his father was a goat-herder in Kenya, and Obama spent a portion of his childhood in Indonesia. And as an African-American, with all the personal experience that implies, Obama seems particularly well qualified to understand the issues that need to be addressed in order to unify America and renew the nation’s moral authority around the world.

12. Why the stress on WORK?
Why the superior-sounding stress on work as if YOU are the only one here who does?

20. Because the poster said I had nothing better to do than post the same crap over and over again..
When you work during the day you do not have time to monitor every single freaking post made at DU to make sure you don't dupe. Some people here are so quick to judge and attack.

22. I did not say that..
But what I do when I search is type a key word or two. In this article, the key word was either "Reich" or "stoop". You definitely would have seen that the article was posted by using those key words. But don't worry about it, it hapens on the Hillary and Edwards side also.

30. That's a good picture for product placement!
He should be holding a bottle of Miller Lite with the label prominently displayed.
