First Democratic Debate

a reply to: stosh64 What about those of us who don't lean either way? We may be under represented, but there are more of us than you think. So don't just assume that someone is right leaning because they disagree with part of the democratic stance.

Hillary is amazing in debates...she has this one in the bag imo

Are you serious?

It boggles my mind to accept that some actually believe that Hillary is "amazing".

God help us.

And it boggles my mind that some people severely lack reading comprehension.

Notice I said the words "at debates" after I said "amazing"

He'd have been much better off saying that he was wrong and learned from that mistake.

RIP Chaffee on his Glass-Steagle answer.

Yep.

Maybe he was trying to pull some Fiorina magic by getting the emotions in there? My dad died ... etc.

What issues were addressed before the emails? That is when I tuned in.

Ok, she lied. What have they found in these investigations, that cost us millions, that she can be tried for?

What does that tell us?

They are above the law depending on their connections and power?

Agreed, but you have to admire his honesty. That is refreshing.

Never heard of the guy before, but he is not being given a fair chance. Sadly his frustration is showing too much and slipping him up when he is given the time.

So true, but technically he'd be bull#ting himself out of a corner...

They check mated him with that.

How do you put people into less college debt by making it easier to get college debt?

OK, so let's assume you're correct and there is nothing there to find. It's all perfectly innocent. They why lie, and lie, and lie again and again to cover it up?

That's either one big compulsive character issue, or there's something there she's hiding. I never lied without thinking I was hiding something.

Two points:

People lie for a variety of reasons. I cannot begin to guess why she lied. But we have to have evidence to convict her and like to err on the side of due process, than to say she's guilty before she's had her day in court.

Also, if you have lied, who are you to pass judgement? I find that to be hypocritical to condemn someone for lying, when they admit that they lie as well.

Please watch it with the sound on, it is a debate nit a mime off.

I was concentrating on body language,
which is far more honest communication,
you can lie with words, but it is really
really hard to lie with body language.
Body language gives away the true inner person.

The rest of you are keeping me up to date
on what they are saying.

When it comes to body language,
OMalley is doing the absolute best,
my hubby turned on the sound,
which unfortunately influences me.
I don't like what OMalley said, but
his body language is the most
honest and forthright, and
positive so far.

Keep in mind Hillary goes before the Benghazi Committee later this month.

She will have to answer (and lie) at that time.

Well, this is boring compared to the GOP debate. Did I miss anything good in the first hour?

Like hearing someone talking about the Clinton Era repeal of Glaas-Stegall causal affect on the economy today.

Boom. Bernie masterfully answered a would be gotcha question on voting against a particular immigration reform bill.

I hear you. I get what you mean. A lot of America tunes out though when they hear that sort of pandering. The Justice system is broken for all impoverished or disenfranchised citizens, not just blacks. Pandering to a specific voting block doesn't fix the system, it just nurtures a different form of inequity or, worse, causes a cultural backlash. See Affirmative Action.

a reply to: introvert

I haven't judged her; I'm just explaining why everyone is so suspicious of her. Are you saying you have never lied because you just passed judgment on me for admitting I've done it in my time.

At any rate, I would hazard a guess most are like me. Now that she's been caught, we all know why you are motivated to do it, and that's why NO ONE trusts her in the polling data.

a reply to: grandmakdw

I agree body language says alot, what training do you have into reading it? Because it is also very misleading.

Now I am bored as Hell. *Snooooooze...." Democrats being democrats.... So boring.

Just an irrelevant side note: The term "anchor baby" originated with Vietnamese refugees.
