McCarthyism works, Sanders supporters provide th proof with the GOP anti-HRC propaganda they parrot

[Bill USA]

What is the percentage of all the pro-Sanders posts on this site that just attack of HRC where they do nothing but parrot GOP anti-Hillary propaganda. Propaganda and charges that have no basis in fact.

6. What tripe! Republicans attack Hillary because they believe her to be an ultra liberal

Liberals and progressives attack Hillary because they believe her to be a middle of the road sell out who puts politics above principle at every opportunity - you can't compare the two

Maybe support a candidate that's not corrupt, that wasn't making money from weapons manufacturers while signing off on deals for those same manufacturers while at State. Someone that doesn't flop flop endlessly. Who doesn't take endless money from big banks. Who isn't funding her campaign with lobbyist cash and who didn't hire the owner of one of the biggest lobbying firms in DC as her campaign chairman. Someone who didn't push blowing up Libya. Who didn't sign off on the Iraq War. Etc etc.

None of this stuff is what a progressive would do btw.

And if you think Sanders supporters are bad, wait until the entire media is repeating all of this - and more - for months in a GE . when Trump is running ads about the uranium deal. The Boeing deals. Etc etc.

Over half the population has a unfavorable opinion of her and 2/3 Dems find her untrustworthy.

This is not right wing talking points. This is what any progressive should be concerned about.

In addition to her inability to run a campaign without stabbing her Democratic opponents and their supporters in the back, alienating many thousands of voters in the process.

12. The anti-HRH ads practically write themselves.

As they tend to when you are neck-deep in corruption and shady deals for enriching yourself.

11. Please name 3 attacks that have no basis in fact.

Good luck with that.

14. Apparently you don't know what the term means.

[Broward]

15. You're more closely aligned with the GOP than any Sanders supporter

by backing a right winger.

[cyberswede]

17. Do you even know what McCarthyism means?

I think not, or you wouldn't be using that term in this context.

[TheBlackAdder]

18. McCarthyism? Aren't you referring to the communist scare of red-bait posts or socialism?

Get your poli-sci terms in order.

20. McCarthyism?

There may be a post here and there that's baseless, but the majority of negative Hillary posts are calling to attention words and actions directly from the candidate herself. She has a lot of history out there; within that is a treasure trove of contradiction and what is perceived as outright lies.

I know you'd like it if we ignored her record, but we can't. The future of our country is too important.

21. here's a good example..... sounds like it was written by a GOP propagandist

Hillary's campaign doesn't fear indictment or the FBI, because the Rule Of Law doesn't apply to her

23. another example of McCarthyism: unsupported charges & demonization of HRC and her suppporters

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511561277

Pure and simple demagoguery. Wild accusations devoid of any substance.

her willingness to corrupt our political system by allowing corporations to buy her and own her votes.

More unsupported nonsense and branding anybody who supports her as being animated only by evil intentions... demagoguery usually identified with the GOP. This is why I've said in the past that it's hard to tell posts of Bernie supporters from the Rabid Right who are attacking Hillary to help Bernie get nominated so the GOP be victorious in the fall.."We'll win every state if Bernie's their nominee."

What I never knew is that there were so many sell outs and denial artists within our own party--who would cheerlead what we all once fought against. Democrats on DU were unified against the neocons and against corporate corruption. I always thought that it would be the Republicans and their followers who would lead us all into more wars and in the corporate takeover of our party.
