Discussion: Clinton, Sanders Camps Duke It Out Over NY Debate Scheduling

I like too how, too, she attacks Sanders for the ¨lies¨ when she is in fact talking to a Greenpeace activist. But it´s not just Sanders, it´s a vast left-wing conspiracy!

Grist:
Hillary Clinton rakes in money from fossil fuel interests

Greenpeace:

Meet the Fossil Fuel Lobbyists Raising Money for Hillary Clinton
Many of Clinton’s bundlers are linked to Big Oil, natural gas, and the Keystone pipeline.

No.

Exxon is the name Raymond Loewy made up to replace Esso, which was a word made from the initials S.O. for Standard Oil—founded by John D. Rockefeller in 1870 and incorporated in Ohio.
After it was broken up under the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, we were left with Standard Oil of New Jersey (Esso), Standard Oil Company of New York (Socony-Mobil), Standard Oil of California (SoCal, later Chevron), Standard of Indiana (Amoco)Standard Oil of Ohio (Sohio, and the core of the original trust) and 28 other companies.
Teh break-up occurred in 1911.

Yeah, Greenpeace. They’ve certainly helped their cause by doing incredibly stupid stuff in the past.

But their hearts were in the right place, right?

No, @thunderclapnewman is right. But Anglo Persian went on to become BP, so that might be a sensitive date for HRC, too. From Greenpeace:

Mary Streett, a lobbyist for BP, gave Clinton’s campaign the maximum allowable amount ($2700). Her sister, Stephanie S. Streett, is the Executive Director of the William J. Clinton Foundation and former executive director of the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation (Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, 990 report 2013). The Podesta Group (Tony Podesta) also lobbied for BP, on issues including the Gulf of Mexico spill response and recovery.

Yea, not true! She should wave her arm like Dick Cheney and declare it never happened. Even if you have the video! And of course Bill will back her up. What was it Billy Martin said …?

I understand you wanting to support your candidate.

I don’t understand why you shovel out these “stories” to diminish her.

Politics is a dirty business, but for eff’s sake, she is not the devil and she has been working for years in service to Americans.

Your off-the-wall crap just isn’t going to convince the realists that you have a case.

This isn’t the way to move forward, carlos.

What is Hillary afraid of, insisting on scheduling debates when no one will watch? That New Yorkers will learn she isn’t all she’s cracked up to be?

It was a joke thunder but I’m sure the Clinton Foundation is involved, somehow.

BTW, would you please update your avatar? Doesn’t do it for me.

Became BP. Thanks to a little Democracy adjustment. Much like we recently did in Egypt. And Honduras. And Haiti. and tried in Venezuela. Thanks for that new thinking - Team Obama/Clinton.

Hmmm. Maybe. Her supporters might watch. I did watch the one in Michigan.

That was the only one I’ve watched.

I’m sure what news source gets it wants the $$$$$$.

You’re not employed by any of them, are you?

I’ll just let that stand by itself.
