Hillary Clinton is Done: part 4

[Jrrarglblarg]

Are any of you following this spirit cooking thing on Twitter? I underestimated the number of babies on the internet.

So many people are "shocked." It is risible.

I looked it up and everything on the first Google result page was right wing propaganda blogs flinging copypasta. Then I looked up the woman associated with the thing and find she is a "conceptual" or "performance" artist. The "recipes" are at best halfarsed neocrowlyist pseudosatanism, fetishizing the icky squicky.

And podesta isn't running for president, so I give less than half a crap. But it's enough to get the pseudochristian right lathered up.

Obvious propaganda is obvious.

I wouldn't have a problem if Clinton did it.

.... FOX News' Brett Baier reported on this Wednesday although, in contradiction to the above, he stated it was NOT anyone within the FBI who gave him the information but sources "with an intimate knowledge of the FBI." ...

What is worrying to me is, it has been reported that many people in the FBI totally support Donald Trump and despise Hillary Clinton. The Wall Street Journal has reported some of the FBI field offices have been pushing to have the Clinton Foundation investigation amped up. It is beginning to seem as though factions within the FBI are trying to influence the election. There are also reports (in the Journal for one) that senior prosecutors in the Justice Department have been less than enthusiastic about the Clinton Foundation investigation. That the FBI is overreaching, taking hearsay reports and doggedly trying to find something.

One wonders if Baer is making an attempt to shield his sources from triggering an internal FBI investigation of leaking (bad enough) false information (down-right misuse of the FBI office).

.. democracy is really taking a beating.

So is the truth. It's not like BS in campaign ads haven't always been dishonest. But it seems this year any semblance of truth has been completely washed away.

Why outrage?

Because it's fake and meant to trick people into thinking they voted with that text.

 

[Skeptic Ginger]

Gee, how mad must they get at all those viagra e-mails they get!

Viagra is not threatening the country.

 

[BobTheCoward]

Viagra is not threatening the country.

Nor does the texting thing.

 

[Jrrarglblarg]

The lack of outrage by the canadian over this is exactly the same as the lack of outrage by trumpistas over Trump bragging about grabbing women by the pussy.

Ordinary false claims in advertising is equivalent to saying bad words.

A false claim in election materials, falsely claiming to be from a candidate, is equivalent to backing a bitch up against the wall and shoving a hand up her snatch. Federal laws apply. It was a criminal act in violation of FEC regulation. Lack of outrage is a lack of comprehension.

I wasn't refering to the impact of the con but to its nature.

AGAIN with the strawmen! I never said anything of the sort. STOP LYING.

 

[Jrrarglblarg]

Lots of outrage from the left about this:

Warranted, but any chance they're just mad they didn't think of it first?

Why outrage?

No, of course, but it's not the first time people try to con others with stuff like this.

Gee, how mad must they get at all those viagra e-mails they get!

Yeah, well, people are going to do what people do. Now, if it's the GOP doing this, directly or indirectly, sure, but otherwise, that's the sort of stuff we see all the time. It's bad, but what do you want to do about it?

AGAIN with the strawmen! I never said anything of the sort. STOP LYING.

I'll just put this here for others to decide.

The highlighted part is illegal as correct the record is a super pac. They are not allowed to coordinate with the campaign they are trying to support.

So my question is simple - Do you have any evidence of this coordination or is this just a baseless accusation?

You mean other than the email I posted last night??

I looked and looked at this and wondered why people would be upset.

It tells people to vote early.

And it tells people to text their support.

And then the penny dropped. Is it supposed to fool people into thinking that they are voting if they send a text? Goodness. Maybe the millennials?

So election fraud is not a national issue?

ftfy

The issue was why be outraged, not the mechanics of the con.

It's a whole series of fake ads and this one is the least explicit. The others all have a combination of "Save time - Avoid the line - Vote from home" on top.

The outrage comes from the fact that the Clinton machine thinks their voters are dumb enough to fall for it.

Sorry, but you absolutely made a false equivalence between election fraud and viagra ads.

 

[BobTheCoward]

No.

Good idea. That way they can see that I never said or implied what you dishonestly claimed that I did.

It's not a false equivalence: I called them both cons!

The only problem here is people adding content to my posts, as usual, because they're emotionally invested in the discussion. People's mental problems are not my concern.
