Please explain to me how sharing a link that provides both context and a full, unedited quote

from Hillary Clinton, then posting my opinion that this quote is unacceptable to me is somehow demeaning her. Did she say "totally obliterate them" or not? Why would you try to demean a rational conversation about a candidates stated position on a VERY important subject. Is discussing HRCs own words demeaning or attacking her?

I've been "here" since 2007.

Perhaps you need to view the link again. I did NOT post a "partial" quote, the whole thing is right there for all to see, including the complete context. If you want to give Hillary a pass on this that is your choice, I choose not to support anyone who would so casually advocate the murder of millions of innocents.

I did not twist or distort anything. "Total Obliteration" of millions of innocents is unacceptable

to me no matter the context. And context is fully provided by the link. I believe it is you who are attempting to "twist and distort" here.

Context is completely provided by both the link and the narration. Call me a dove if you

want but in my opinion her answer disqualifies her as an acceptable candidate for the presidency. You answer seems to suggest it was political expediency in a "heated campaign". Either way, no bueno.

Why don't you ask him? My belief is that he would take appropriate action. "Total Obliteration"

of millions of innocents is not appropriate action.

So you're saying she's "evolved" on this issue? If she has I'd like to know. Did she apologize for

and/or refute this statement? To me, there is no "statute of limitations" on Total Obliteration.
