That she really used the analogy doesn't make her back-faced support of banksters less sickening. And that right-wingers criticism reaks of sewage doesn't make her smell better.davidlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754707934311038544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-49484421071265278062016-10-10T22:15:42.861-04:002016-10-10T22:15:42.861-04:00I would have watched the debate but I had to peel ...I would have watched the debate but I had to peel a potato.

I would've said okay, you want to buy a house. Owner's asking 250,000 (I know). You're prepared to pay 240,00—your private position. So you offer 230,000—your public position. Anybody who tries to make more out of it than that is grotesquely uncharitable & is probably too deeply influenced by the sewage bubbling up from the fever swamps about HRC's dishonesty to see that. Or has never negotiated a thing in their life. It's too easy to say "what a fuckin' hypocrite" because it confirms their bias. Bottom line: what she's saying to the banksters is "look, we all know how to make a deal here. I can get things done in Congress." And—bonus bottom line—that has always been the right's biggest criticism of Obama, to wit: he comes in and demands what he wants & sticks to it, leaving no room for the other side to save face with their constituencies by "winning" the negotiation and talking him down from his initial position.<br /><br />Okay, I'll delete my account now.Jim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02088100982761595050noreply@blogger.com
