I agree with the author that hating the Clintons only makes them stronger, but I disagree that Hillary will have earned it if she is elected

Thank God for the little word "if"

The Clintons belong in prison. Period.

That depends on what the meaning of the word “if” is.

“and wanted no part of the misogynist element to Hillary-bashing.”

Misogynist? He’s playing fast and loose with words.

We haven’t figured out if it’s even human, much less what sex it is.

I'm done hating the Clintons.

I may retire from hating them professionally but will still enjoy it at my leisure... especially that nasty commie hag

Many Freepers have “Clinton Derangement Syndrome” ie they would vote for Joseph Stalin if it meant “stopping Hillary.”

She came across as authoritative

Authoritarian is closer to home. Or autocratic, despotic, dictatorial, totalitarian, tyrannical.

Narcissists make the worst leaders yet make up the largest pool of those running for public office. Similarly narcissists are attracted to teaching yet make the worst teachers.

Wouldn’t that be an oxymoron?

The Clintons belong in prison.

Perhaps, but for some reason, they were investigated by a Republican Special Prosecutor for six years and there has been a Department of Justice headed by Republicans for the last 6.75 years and little has been done to the Clintons.

At some point you have to realize that the Clintons may not be the only criminals that have been in power.

Voters elected Bill Clinton to serve two terms

Voters elected??? 43.01% and 49.23% is what put the K'Toon in office. If voter fraud had been curtailed I have no doubt the percentages would have been much lower.

My opinion of the Clintons would have to improve before I could actually hate them...

‘’At some point you have to realize that the Clintons may not be the only criminals that have been in power.’’

It’s obvious that behind closed doors it’s the same mafia.

Yes, we should not elect anybody to be President because he or she earned it. We should vote for the person who has the right policies, who is sincere in his or her beliefs and who has the moral fortitude to do what’s best for our country. When I look at Hillary Clinton, all I can see is a very selfish person who will do anything and say anything to get elected. She cares nothing about America and, if it serves her ambition, ahe will not think twice about destroying our institutions, our economy, and the future of our children and the generations to come. I just hope enough people realizes how phony and wicked she really is and will vote to allow somebody else, from any party, to lead this nation.

It is rather discouraging that after years and years and thousands of pieces of evidence against the Clintons, that noting has been done even with the GOP in control of the DoJ.

If we elect presidents based on who has “earned” it and who has run the shrewdest campaign, how the hell did Jimmy Carter ever become president???

Dear Debra Saunders:
You’re half-baked logic is emblematic of what’s wrong today. ‘If she wins, so be it’, doesn’t make the grade. I’ll bet you’re a blonde. If not, you have earned the right to be one.

NO third term. It is unconstitutional for Bill to assume ANY duties as Hillary has promised him and likely unconstitutional for her to return either (being elected or sworn in is not a condition of the prohibition).

http://www.usconstitution.net/xconst_Am22.html

Amendment 22 - Presidential Term Limits

1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President, when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

2. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the States by the Congress.

Notes for this amendment:
Proposed 3/21/1947
Ratified 2/27/1951
History

Two-for-One Deal, Take Two (September 4, 2007)

Wikipedia

As First Lady of the United States, she took a more prominent position in policy matters than many before her. Her major initiative, the Clinton health care plan, failed to gain approval by the U.S. Congress in 1994, but she did succeed in establishing the Children's Health Insurance Program in 1997, among other things. Clinton later became the first First Lady to be subpoenaed, testifying before a Federal grand jury as a consequence of the Whitewater scandal in 1996. She was never charged with any wrongdoing in this or several other investigations during the Clinton administration. The state of her marriage to Bill Clinton was the subject of considerable public discussion following the events of the Lewinsky scandal in 1998.

[ snip ]

Some critics called it inappropriate for the First Lady to play a central role in matters of public policy. Supporters pointed out that Clinton's role in policy was no different from that of other White House advisors and that voters were well aware that she would play an active role in her husband's Presidency.[100] Bill Clinton's campaign promise of "two for the price of one" led opponents to refer derisively to the Clintons as "co-presidents",[101] or sometimes "Billary..."
