[slinkerwink]

1. I wonder why she skipped the last FISA vote?

[MonkeyFunk]

39. Probably for the same reason Obama did

That doesn't score you a point.

[ErinBerin84]

Yes, Hillary deserves praise etc

But there are like 7 threads on this right now.

[BeatleBoot]

5. There should be 50 times that

Its that important.

[PresidentObama]

2. Go Hillary!!

Good for her!

[shayes51]

27. yes

[emilyg]

35. Yes!

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

3. Why does Hillary want the terrorists to attack us?

If we really want act stupid, why make it half-assed?

[PresidentObama]

8. Excuse me?

[tekisui]

4. Wrong forum. This belongs in GD.

[BeatleBoot]

7. Nope. Obama caved.

So sorry.

Where's the Filibuster?

[DrDan]

6. of course he wasn't going to filibuster . . .

that was obvious

[BeatleBoot]

10. I agree

By him promising to filibuster, it meant the opposite.

[monmouth]

9. Hillary has nothing to lose, she's over....n/t

[Benhurst]

14. So we're to assume if she were slouching towards Denver to be nominated, she would have

betrayed the Constitution, too?

[JoFerret]

46. I think she may be just

getting started. If that is the case we will all benefit.

12. Hillary voted for the Patriot Act. Twice. nt

[ecstatic]

18. and to give the "gift of freedom" to Iraqi children

I guess all is forgiven now? :shrug:

[Median Democrat]

19. That just means Hillary Flipped Flopped Twice

In fact, Hillary Supported Wiretapping:

[Danger Mouse]

22. And cluser bombs. She loves those too.

[gateley]

13. Thank you Hillary!

You can rest well tonight knowing you did the right thing.

[Danger Mouse]

15. Obama is the presumptive nominee for president, Hillary is not.

[saracat]

20. Then he should have led by his actions.

[Danger Mouse]

21. Hillary would've done exactly the same thing and don't try to tell me otherwise.

[jgraz]

37. At least with Obama, the cave-in was a surprise.

[thewiseguy]

24. Look what the cat dragged in!

Seems we have an all out effort on our hands.

[LowerManhattanite]

42. Nobody Expects The Grief Brigade! (Actually, we did on this! LOL!) n/t

[JoFerret]

47. Careful

be very careful.

[Saturday]

16. Good job Hillary! nt

[malik flavors]

17. The primaries are over kids.

[BeatleBoot]

31. Wiretapping is for Adults

[cloud75]

23. Go Hillary!!!!

[leftofcool]

25. Go Hillary! You're still my girl!

[NYC_SKP]

26. Hillery, Hillery who?

Odd to be talking about her in GD-P.

Uh, P as in President Obama, BTW

[MonkeyFunk]

40. I think it's even odder

to see somebody in GDP who can't spell "Hillary".

[Life Long Dem]

28. She had a no show for Feb 12th FISA immunity bill

She hid from the immunity bill on the Feb 12 th vote and yesterday voted for the fisa stay bill on that Feb 12th no show vote.

[DevonRex]

29. But they don't care. Because it's just a way to bash Obama for them. nt

[totodeinhere]

30. The difference is that she is not running for anything anymore.

[MonkeyFunk]

41. So running for something gives one carte blanche

to vote wrong?

I learn so much reading this board these days. I see a certain... um.. flexibility... that I never would've imagined.

[totodeinhere]

49. Of course not. But as the nominee Obama has political considerations...

that Clinton does not have. And BTW, I oppose Obama's stand on FISA even though I understand why he felt that he had to do what he did.

[LVjinx]

44. You're suggesting that Obama will do and say anything to get elected? Harsh.

[totodeinhere]

48. Not at all. I'm saying that if Clinton were the nominee she would have voted the other way.

I meant no dispersions on Obama.

[Baltoman991]

32. Wow

Obama never promised to filibuster. He said he'd support one. There weren't enough votes for a filibuster.

And while all of you continue to praise Clinton for her no vote today, I will continue to scorn her for her vote that allowed me to attend a funeral at Arlington National Cemetary.

And I expect my post will be seen as trolling or whatever because I really don't post here much. But I know someone who posts here from another board and I would bet that she'd vouch for me and let everyone know that I'm not a troll.

Hillary Clinton deserves no praise from me. She voted for this illegal war that has cost over four thousand of our men and woman to die for lies.

She's voted twice for the Patriot Act. Another bill that takes away your rights.

Sorry, one vote doesn't make me forget standing at the graveyard watching a loved one being lowered because of lies.

[LVjinx]

43. "There weren't enough votes for a filibuster." But there were for the Hillary votes you don't like?

Insane double standard.

[Arkana]

33. Good. Perhaps we should offer her a cookie.

Then a sticker if she goes poopy in the fucking potty afterwards. Would that be OK, Mr. Concern Troll?

[highplainsdem]

34. Brava, Hillary! Kudos to her and all who voted against FISA today.

[jesus_of_suburbia]

36. Thank you Hillary! n/t

[Jim Sagle]

38. She's a MONSTER11111 This is HUGH11111111

;)

[JoFerret]

45. I get a sense that we may start

to see the "real" Hillary emerge. And it will be fun.
