Why Press Hates Hillary

posted by gdoud

The Question on TYT was: why does the Press hate Hillary so much?

My opinion is that the "Press" (media of varied sorts) hates Hillary because she reminds them so much of the job they have not done.

They thought they were cheerleading a war of revenge in 2003, but it turned out to be a clusterfuck of Bushian proportians.  Now, they have a Democratic candidate that voted right along their guidelines - pro war, pro funding, anti flag-burning; hell, even an effort to oppose violent video games (I mean, how soccer-mom can you  get?).  She even voted to retroactively excuse telecoms from illegally spying on us!  Bitch!  

She was slightly to the right of Arlen Spectre.  And she was wrong, and so was all of the "Lame-stream media".  They know it, but they are unwilling to criticize Hillary for being wrong on the same stuff as they were.  So they criticize her laugh, her tears, and her "ice-bitch" persona.

I can't stand Hillary, because she is right there with Chris Mathews.  And that is why he can't stand her either.  Because she reminds him just how wrong he, and she, was and is.

Maybe if H-beast wins she'll keep the democrat divided and angry at each other?

I knew Obama's coke head days would come back to haunt him when I saw him telling students about it at that highschool.

 Now Hillary can just pound him with it and he'll lose.

didn't seem to hurt Bush, plus Bush was an alcoholic who eventually got a DUI.

How do you know Bush did coke? He has never said anything about that.

 

...and that DUI hurt him big time in 2000. He was winning in the polls and then that came out and it hurt him big time. It probably cost the R's a few senate seats in 2000 too since those were so close.

Also saying something about your "past" does not mean "cocaine."

 I have no idea where liberals jumps to such farcical conclusions like that.

They LOVE her! (none / 0)

The press doesn't hate Hillary. She's their candidate on the Democratic side. She's the corporate favorite.

It doesn't really matter what they say as long as they keep her in the news, pretending it's a horse race. They just want to keep her name repeated over and over again until it's assumed that she's actually done something that earns her coronation.
