Clinton: GOP should 'just get out of the way'
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/21/15 | Curt Mills

Posted on 11/22/2015 2:29:09 AM PST by markomalley

Hillary Clinton, who listed "Republicans" as her enemy in the first Democratic debate, wasted no time laying into her longtime foil at Saturday's North Charleston, S.C., "Jamboree."

Referring to Republicans' repeated attempts to repeal Obamacare in Congress, Clinton said, "Honestly, I don't know why they do this. They're driven by political ideology, not by taking care of people."

"I want to build on, and make improvements in the Affordable Care Act and I will stand against any Republican effort to repeal it," Clinton said, highlighting a recent campaign tact of wholeheartedly embracing and highlighting President Obama's signature, but most controversial, legislative achievement.

Clinton also at times used language that seemingly could have been lifted from the stump speeches of her chief Democratic competitor, Bernie Sanders, representing a cementing of her move leftward in order to stave off Sanders' surging popularity and emergence as her leading rival in the primary.

"You know the deck is rigged," Clinton said of the tax system. "Well, we've got to reshuffle that deck, and make sure we are raising incomes for the middle class," Clinton said, adding, but "not raising taxes for the middle class," in a dig at Sanders who has proposed some middle class tax hikes to pay for his program.

"I will not do that," Clinton said. "From my perspective, we have to create more good-paying jobs, and there's a bunch of things we could do, if the Republicans would just get out of the way."

The Republicans are in the way, Hillary?

Why don’t you just wipe them away, you know, like with a cloth.

"They're driven by political ideology, not by taking care of people."

Pelosi and Reid mentioned this during their secret Husseincare meetings. You know - Biden's big effin' deal.

It should be noted that during her husband’s time in office, the deindustrialization of America began in earnest, taking the “Good Paying Jobs” with it.

not by taking care of people...

Why should people be taken care of?

It’s not a nursing home. It’s a country!!

I great one founded on self reliance and gritty determination.

It’s not your @#$@#$@#$ nanny state to rule over like a Queen Hag.

YOU will not win in 2016. But i hope VERY MUCH you get your party’s nomination.

Trump or Cruz will destroy you

Seems like I remember someone screeching

Maybe the press could question her about her change of stance.

Clinton said. "From my perspective, we have to create more good-paying jobs, and there's a bunch of things we could do, if the Republicans would just get out of the way."

'bunch of things' is treated by the msm as a detailed and specific plan by the hildabutchbitch while they laugh at Ted Cruz' very detailed and specific tax rate reduction plan.

Hillary, claiming Republicans are driven by political ideology? That’s rich. That part of her that isn’t driven by narcissism is driven by ideology, and she has a reputation for treating those working for her (e.g. the secret service) like dirt.

‘Taking care of people’ in the context of Hillary is: 1) Being in a codified superior position to everyone, by virtue of political office and power. 2) Pushing programs on the American people that make them more dependent upon government, (and in the process more dependent upon people like her, for ‘saving’ them).

Protecting her husband from women he hurt, was that ‘taking care of people’? Did she take care of the people working for her Dept. of State in Benghazi?

If you want to know who ‘cares’ about taking care of people, ask yourself whether you’d want Hillary to babysit your children.
