The Clinton campaign told the Times that generally these matters did not reach the secretary's level, so she may not have been involved at all. According to the Times, Jose Fernandez, a former assistant secretary of state, represented the department on the committee. He told the Times: "Mrs. Clinton never intervened with me on any C.F.I.U.S. matter."
But let's not let facts get in the way of a good rant by the con artist team.
By better sound quality, do they mean the signal isn't compressed six ways to Tuesday so music sounds tinny, weak and as if it's coming through a wire a raccoon is chewing on?
This one is true. Obama told everyone what he wanted to accomplish which then allowed Republicans to state unequivocally their top priority, make him a one-term president. And thus they became the party of No, obstructing everything, even if the people wanted it.
how he enacted those polices
Not sure what you mean by this one. Oh wait. You mean those executive orders and signing statements, don't you? The same ones George Bush and every single president has done since George Washington. Yeah, I can see how that would be an issue. After all, if you do the exact same thing as your predecessor, only you are in the wrong. Not the guy who came after you and does the exact same thing.
his attitude toward the opposition
You mean like reaching out and trying to find common ground? How horrible!
his repeated mishaps (Fast and Furious as example)
You claim multiple mishaps yet cite only one. I'm guessing those 3,000 dead that happened when George Bush ignored months of daily warnings of an impending attack doesn't come close this one issue, right? Nor the financial collapse which was the worst in 80 years. Nor the invasion of Iraq which cost us over 4,000 soldiers and over $4 trillion in costs. How about handing over $700 billion of taxpayer money to Wall Street and banks so they could pay out their bonuses? Forcing phone companies to install illegal wiretaps? Does any of this ring a bell?
his moneyed ties to Wallstreet
You mean unlike the current administration who as as his Treasury chief a person who came from Goldman Sachs, right? Or that he had, until recently, Carl Icahn who is lousy with connections to Wall Street. Here's a list of the Goldman Sachs employees the con artist has in his administration. This is only Goldman Sachs employees. This doesn't include all the other firms people have come from.
This article talks about how the con artist doesn't want to enforce rules against Wall Street and the banks. Instead, he wants them to "self report" whenever they commit a crime. This of course is in no way a sign the con artist has moneyed ties to Wall Street or is doing their bidding. None whatsoever.
his repeated power grabs at various government agencies
Like signing statements above, the same as previous administrations. Were you whining when Bush did this? How about Reagan?
his cozy relationship with MSM
Non sequitor. MSM is a nonsense name, a fake name if you will, made up by those trying to claim the high ground because they have nothing to offer. If you think Breitbart and the Fox tabloid are somehow better news sources than the New York Times, BBC or CNN, it's quite clear facts don't enter into your daily life.
his continuation of Bush policy
Isn't this a good thing? Everyone knows how great things were under Bush what with the financial markets collapsing, the worst recession in 80 years, 14 million people losing their jobs, millions losing their homes. This doesn't even take into account the worst terrorist attack in U.S. history which occurred on Bush's watch. Make up your mind. You criticize Obama for doing his own thing, and you criticize him for doing the exact same thing Bush did. You can't have it both ways.
his lackluster foreign policy
This is the only legitimate issue and is a continuation of your first comment. Obama was lackluster when it came
First they don't bother to get rid of the rape videos or pictures, and there is no way direct way to notify them of such.
Second, in an effort to make Tumblr more exclusive, they're forcing people to sign up to see most of the tumbles, specifically the ones where men and women are naked (gasp!).
Third, they recently implemented a Facebook-like process for their app which works on trending or some such, and is killing traffic to people's blogs. According to posted shots of traffic logs, folks are seeing a huge drop in site visits as a direct result.
The reason for the 'whataboutism' during Obama's tenure related directly to the whiners who were accusing Obama of this and that while completely ignoring Bush had done the exact same thing and didn't say one word.
It was a perfectly legitimate argument to use. If one didn't complain when Bush did it, one cannot complain when Obama did it.
Remember all those "illegal" executive orders Obama signed? Too bad Bush had more and both were outclassed by Reagan. And after whining about those "illegal" executive orders, what does the con artist do? Start signing more "illegal" executive orders on his first day in office.
And your point being? If people choose to ignore the warnings because they're smarter than the experts, why should everyone else scramble to do anything for them?
You probably have that cute saying, 'Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part', hanging around somewhere. This is no different. People have been warned about the dangers of drug use for close to 100 years yet, instead of heeding those warnings, people continue to ignore them because it's nothing but the government trying to prevent them from having a good time.
Now, with the ability to do your own biohacking, with no controls or safety protocols in place, people are being warned not to try this at home.
In both cases, after ignoring the warnings, people die yet for some odd reason, we're supposed to bend over backwards, spending our time and resources, to protect them. Remember that guy who was essentially liquefied at Yellowstone Park last year? And why did it happen? Because he and his sister thought it would be fun to ignore all the posted warnings about the dangers of the hot springs. As a result, park rangers had to risk their lives to a) find out if the body was still there and b) try to recover whatever was left (effectively zero).
The same with this. If people choose to ignore the warnings and injure or kill themselves, they have only themselves to blame. We shouldn't have to pay the price for their stupidity.
So it's like all the music and movies people are stealing because the terms of use are being ignored, and people keep coming up with excuses why those terms don't apply to them.
Lawmakers shouldn't allow Facebook to regulate itself. Because it won't.
Just like Wall Street and the banks back in 2007 who repeatedly told us they knew what they were doing and that any additional regulations would stifle their competitiveness on the world. Don't regulate me bro!
Bullshit. The banks are regulated so the idea they would simply burn your money, or something similar, is ludicrous. This doesn't even take into consideration the FDIC which will at least get you most, if not all, of your money back if something does happen. It's why it was developed.
Who is going to get these people's money back now that it's permanently locked away? You think a fork is going to help?
the software will become even less useful as Microsoft hides regularly used features such as Control Panel.
Instead of being able to go directly to what you want you'll have to spend time searching. It's as if the developers have never been to a brick and mortar store in their life. When buying eggs, does one walk around the entire store looking for them, or do you go straight to the refrigerated section?
I'm sure the pharmaceutical companies could care less about those using heroin. They're not their customers.
But, since you're on the whole "Big Pharma" canard, think of how much money those companies have left on the table by curing polio and small pox. Think of the money they could be raking in by not finding a solution.
It's funny that people such as yourself who use the term MSM as a pejorative, claiming their "fake", are quick to use those same "fake" news sources to bolster your misguided claim the con artist has had anything to do with growth or employment.
It's even funnier, perhaps pathetic is the correct word, when in March of 2009 when Obama took office, you were quick to blame him for the bad economy, loss of jobs and the banking crisis when only a few months before it was Bush handing out $700 billion of taxpayer money to banks and Wall Street so they could pay out their bonuses.
Apparently in your world the moment someone takes office there is a clear and sharp cut off from what the guy before did. There is no overlap, no continuation of policies, no continuation of anything. It's as if you have no common sense on how reality works.

there was a reason to buy a Mac. Overpriced, underperforming, and non-upgradable.
Yeah, that's what I want in a computer.
What are the chances a taxi company would be considered a transportation company?
The mind boggles at such a concept.
She, like all of the other cabinet members, approved the sale of a Canadian company
Actually, she wasn't even involved with the process as related by the person on the committee:
The Clinton campaign told the Times that generally these matters did not reach the secretary's level, so she may not have been involved at all. According to the Times, Jose Fernandez, a former assistant secretary of state, represented the department on the committee. He told the Times: "Mrs. Clinton never intervened with me on any C.F.I.U.S. matter."

allows for better sound quality
By better sound quality, do they mean the signal isn't compressed six ways to Tuesday so music sounds tinny, weak and as if it's coming through a wire a raccoon is chewing on?
Let's take this tripe one by one.
it had nothing to do with his policies

This is the only legitimate issue and is a continuation of your first comment. Obama was lackluster when it came
your not making yourself look any less of an idiot
Says the person who either doesn't know how to spell, or can't use proper grammar.
So you don't deny the numbers are fake. The only thing you can do is deflect.
Got it.
As we were repeatedly told during the campaign when good employment numbers kept coming out, these are fake numbers.
The words of the con artist ring true. These are fake numbers. And the same reasons he gave for calling the numbers fake hold true now.
19 times he said the numbers were fake.
Job numbers are biggest hoax in modern politics.
So there you have it. More fake numbers.
Why Kevin O'Leary doesn't spend $2.50 on a cup of coffee.
Yet here are, reading a story about people spending their real money on a fake currency to buy fake cats. To quote O'Leary:
"The truth is, there is a lot of crap you don't need."
Don't use spyware posing as a web browser.
Oh, because someone thinks someone isn't something, that makes it true?
Is that like the con artist saying Putin told him Russia didn't interfere in U.S. elections and the con artist believes him?
How about the pedophile Roy Moore who the con artist also said he believes didn't do what the accusers are saying because Roy said he didn't?
Now this corrupt, swamp-dwelling lobbyist is concerned about discrimination?
Where was he when there was a white supremacist as a White House adviser?
First they don't bother to get rid of the rape videos or pictures, and there is no way direct way to notify them of such.
Second, in an effort to make Tumblr more exclusive, they're forcing people to sign up to see most of the tumbles, specifically the ones where men and women are naked (gasp!).
Third, they recently implemented a Facebook-like process for their app which works on trending or some such, and is killing traffic to people's blogs. According to posted shots of traffic logs, folks are seeing a huge drop in site visits as a direct result.
So yeah, not surprising at all.
The reason for the 'whataboutism' during Obama's tenure related directly to the whiners who were accusing Obama of this and that while completely ignoring Bush had done the exact same thing and didn't say one word.
It was a perfectly legitimate argument to use. If one didn't complain when Bush did it, one cannot complain when Obama did it.

The same with this. If people choose to ignore the warnings and injure or kill themselves, they have only themselves to blame. We shouldn't have to pay the price for their stupidity.
No, that is too difficult. It means people will miss five seconds of texts which are coming through.
The problem is that they're being ignored.
So it's like all the music and movies people are stealing because the terms of use are being ignored, and people keep coming up with excuses why those terms don't apply to them.
Got it.
Lawmakers shouldn't allow Facebook to regulate itself. Because it won't.
Just like Wall Street and the banks back in 2007 who repeatedly told us they knew what they were doing and that any additional regulations would stifle their competitiveness on the world. Don't regulate me bro!
We saw how "self-regulation" worked out for them.
Bullshit. The banks are regulated so the idea they would simply burn your money, or something similar, is ludicrous. This doesn't even take into consideration the FDIC which will at least get you most, if not all, of your money back if something does happen. It's why it was developed.
Who is going to get these people's money back now that it's permanently locked away? You think a fork is going to help?
he went from one piece of spyware to another.
Tumblr going to remove the numerous rape videos they're hosting?
the software will become even less useful as Microsoft hides regularly used features such as Control Panel.
Instead of being able to go directly to what you want you'll have to spend time searching. It's as if the developers have never been to a brick and mortar store in their life. When buying eggs, does one walk around the entire store looking for them, or do you go straight to the refrigerated section?
Clippy lives on, albeit in another form.
I'm sure the pharmaceutical companies could care less about those using heroin. They're not their customers.
But, since you're on the whole "Big Pharma" canard, think of how much money those companies have left on the table by curing polio and small pox. Think of the money they could be raking in by not finding a solution.
Says the person who is probably, based on what is said on this site, either a programmer or self-employed. Or both.
Either way, I'm sure you never go for the highest paying job. Wouldn't want to be greedy.
Well yeah. Thanks to Obama.
It's funny that people such as yourself who use the term MSM as a pejorative, claiming their "fake", are quick to use those same "fake" news sources to bolster your misguided claim the con artist has had anything to do with growth or employment.
