You'll find much to agree with among the top reader picks. <br /><br />We should not criticize the Clinton Campaign Pas de Deux. May it steal the show in the headlines. These two are fooling few while alienating the many, letting the people see just how low the Clinton show can go. That goes too for the nastiness of Albright and Steinem. <br /><br />Bernie was expected to win New Hampshire big. But if the Clinton campaign continues on the low road, browbeating women, especially the young, and bullying the rest of the voters, I expect Bernie may win NH by an astounding margin.

He must be on medication and wonder how Hillary will feel about this ugly confrontation. <br />Hope it backfires.

He said he did not look at his phone when the call came in expecting a friend to be calling.<br /><br />We're going to be seeing a lot of dirty undercover information making the rounds in this election year.

His website mentions his displeasure with the TPP, but unlike Elizabeth Warren does not really explain what is at stake. (Sorry to say, I don't think Sanders does a very good job at this either.)<br />But here's the best part. It links to this article: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2015/01/can-this-congressman-make-america-more-zen.html<br />Try not to vomit when you read it.<br />OOOhhh Buddhism.

I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?" and Albright replied "we think the price is worth it.”<br /><br />During her tenure, Albright considerably influenced American policy in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Middle East. According to Albright's memoirs, she once argued with Colin Powell for the use of military force by asking, "What's the point of you saving this superb military for, Colin, if we can't use it?"[<br /><br /><br />Thank you Pam for mentioning the first woman Secretary of State, close friend and advisor to Hillary Clinton. It may explain some of the destructive decisions Hillary made as Secretary of State and along with Henry Kissinger would continue to advise Hillary should she become President. Shudder.<br /><br />These women's minds are in tune with the military mentality and have caused more destruction than any man could. To think they are supposed to represent Feminism is very troubling. I hope the younger women supporting Bernie Sanders can recognize the difference and not judge women's success as being able to be in the front lines <br />with the men in battle during all the senseless wars of recent years.Pearlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-31787400536951433962016-02-07T10:42:33.226-05:002016-02-07T10:42:33.226-05:00Good reporting Karen.

I had no idea before reading this that the crane that collapsed was installing generators to make it easier for Wall Street to do those lightning trades that Bernie Sanders wants to tax and Hillary wants to basically leave alone.<br /><br />I agree with you, I think that the Clinton campaign is crashing. It's not a pretty sight either. She's down to the only reason to vote for her is because she would be the first woman president. Madeline Albright is out there condemning women to hell if they don't vote for Clinton. The same Albright who was fine with Iraqi women and children dying from starvation from the sanctions imposed during the first Clinton administration.

That's the NY Post for you I guess.<br />If anyone accuses Sanders of "politicizing" the Flint water crisis then his answer should be "Damn right, since it is a political crisis."<br />Okay, so I have some other suggestions: Talk about jobs, jobs, jobs. When Hillary counters with her damn job training initiatives just say "the best job training is on-the-job training". When people start talking about how to pay for it, instead of falling into their trap and talking about tax increases, just say "How long should we wait? Tell me when it will be cheaper to fix this stuff." Keep it simple.<br />And it would help for him to not be so deferential to Hillary when she is spouting bald faced lies such as "Wall Street is out to get me."<br />one other idea, Sanders should bring up his net worth and then say "I'm definitely not broke".Katnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-62819064257575104772016-02-07T04:34:09.875-05:002016-02-07T04:34:09.875-05:00I guess I don't see what the crane operator...I guess I don't see what the crane operator's DUI's in the 1980's have to do with what happened if he blew a totally clean breathalyzer test after the crane collapsed. The only reason that would have had relevance is if the guy had been using alcohol when operating the crane. I don't know why the New York Post felt they had to throw that salacious tidbit into the report.<br /><br />I remember seeing all the cranes in downtown Berlin used to erect all the rich multinational corporate buildings so they could show they had some kind of architectural presence - each gaudier than the last. It DOES have a very futuristic feel - and it is not a good feeling - more like opulence taken to the extreme. <br /><br />Valerienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-11362239695782038522016-02-06T15:27:38.804-05:002016-02-06T15:27:38.804-05:00Clever metaphor Karen.
