At DNC women's forum, Hillary Clinton declares Democrats stand for truth, evidence and facts

To the tunes of Tina Turner and Katy Perry, Democrats gathered four floors below ground, deep in the Washington D.C. Marriott Marquis to hear from a litany of Democrats and one "special guest" whose name did not appear on any formal program. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took the stage to high octave cheers, addressing a female coalition at the DNC Women's Leadership Forum she founded as First Lady alongside Tipper Gore, 25 years ago.

The former secretary of state, U.S. senator, and first lady quickly got to the question she says she's hearing from Democrats across the country: "What do the Democrats stand for?" It's a political query so many Democratic leaders have gone out of their way to address ahead of midterm elections, and in the wake of a presidential election cycle that left some on the left feeling disjointed and void of a unified message.

"We stand for truth, for evidence and facts. What an incredible thing!" Clinton exclaimed, in what may have been a lighthearted jab at an administration. Clinton continued, "We have kind of an affection for evidence. We think it should inform our policies, because they'll actually work better," she declared, prompting modest laughter from the female-dominated audience.

With DNC Chair Tom Perez standing behind her and against a pink and blue backdrop emblazoned with a large "D," Clinton praised party leadership for running a staff whose leadership positions are filled by 44 percent people of color and 70 percent women. "And you know why that's important? That is what America looks like."

Hillary has been doing more globe-trotting since the election than she did in the 3 months leading up to the election.

Maybe, if she had spent this much time and travel on the campaign trail, she might have had a better result.

It is rather amazing how many of these womens’ conferences and foreign countries she has traveled to. During the election cycle, she could hardly make it through one or two events per week.

“Wiped? like with a cloth”? That’s Presidential material there.

C’mon Dems. Give her one more chance . . . please. You wouldn’t want to discriminate against a woman, would you?

She belongs in prison. A Republican with the same crimes would already be there. Letting this excrement of America run free only harms the nation and enables others to disregard and flaunt the law while undermining the country. The fact that millions still idolize her is sickening and the real travesty just like those who idolize the Kenyan.

An alcoholic once told me one of their secrets.

Once you learn to lie convincingly to that person looking back at you in the mirror every morning, it’s a piece of cake to lie to every body else”

No one noticed she crossed her fingers behind her back.

You’d have to make a long walk around her hips to get there to see that. Exhausting.

So disgusting that she ordered the payment of laundered money for things like bitbleach and the dossier. But gets credit for being a well qualified, decent candidate. What a farce.
