Her campaign is actually trying to lie through their teeth to protect her on this one: http://www.videosift.com/video/Clinton-camp-disputes-her-Rich-people-God-bless-us-remark

I'm confused, who am I supposed to be upset with in this video clip? I'm leaning towards that unpatriotic, communist, coffee machine who refuses to wear an American flag lapel pin.

Speaking for myself, I'm upset with the coffee dispenser people. They should make an interface that does not require assistants (or assistance) to use.

Yeah, she was obviously being facetious. Lets all be good and help each other onto the propaganda machine. Has anyone actually seen the entire interview?

I'm not a Hillary supporter myself, but it's pretty clear this is just another successful segment of her on going political assassination.

It sounded like she was going to be sarcastic,... then it turned out she wasn't.

I think you're wrong bamdrew, in the context of talking about raising the tax for rich people and then saying god bless us we deserve to keep all our money for our family. Come on even Bill'O realizes she's being sarcastic. Though i can see this [truncated]clip being used a lot over the coming weeks and months.

^I actually watched the whole thing, she was being sarcastic, hooray for more sound bites being taken out of context. The whole issue was about her raising taxes on the wealthiest American's which Bill countered with 'I make a lot of money so does your husband, you'd take it all away from us?'* She basically responded that the tax wouldn't hurt the rich and that it would actually help them as it would help to stabilize the national debt or something to that effect.

And despite defending Hillary here I'm a pretty staunch Obama supporter, I'm just a little bit tired of the 3 second sound bite crap.

Well, she was being honest. She's rich. We know that. What the hell's the problem?

If she was being sarcastic (and she may well have been), why is her communications director blatantly lying about what she said instead of saying she was being sarcastic?

If this, or bittergate, convinces any poor person to vote against their own interest, for McCain, that's pathetic.

Republicans are the ones who want to cut taxes for the rich and raise taxes for everybody else to pay for a huge military budget, or else devalue the currency by maintaining the deficit.

Democrats are the ones who want to raise taxes for the rich, cut taxes for the rest, reduce military spending, and increase welfare spending. The annual cost of medicare for all would be much less than the cost of the Iraq war. Federal spending as a percentage of GDP decreased a lot during the Clinton administration and skyrocketed during the Bush administration.

McCain's a flip-flopping neo-con schmuck, but Obama and Clinton are barely any better. They all want to take your money one way or another, either taxation or inflation. They all get lobbied to pass special privilege legislation. Fuck, NAFTA was a Clinton bill. And SS and Medicare were doomed to fail from the very beginning, it is a complete con. If you were allowed to keep that 12% per paycheck tax, you'd be able to invest it YOURSELF for YOUR OWN RETIREMENT. Holy shit, what a novel idea: a system that can't fail with generational bubbles, can't be raided by government, can't result in fraudulent claims, doesn't need higher taxes to FUND the paychecks of useless jobs needed to run the damn thing, can't be stolen by manipulating CPI calculations to understate inflation (another Clinton-era miracle), can't be moved further to your death by raising the retirement age... I mean, honestly, get off the big government bandwagon.

And ideally, there should be no federal income tax for ANYONE. Enough with this rich vs poor antagonism, it's a total diversion. Who the hell do you think pays your salary, created the job you're in? A rich person. And guess what, most of them compete with one another for your skilled labor, which is why your wage doesn't drop to 10 cents an hour overnight. And not all them gained unfairly. It's morally retarded, there's no way to determine who gained fairly or unfairly, so just tax em all above a certain bracket? They are responsible for creating pretty much all of our jobs. You tax the shit out of them, more small businesses go plunk, more jobs get cut, and the biggest move it offshore and say "fuck it, where's the incentive?" and avoid it completely. That's exactly what happened when the capital gains tax was raised last time, total revenue went DOWN because you socialist idealists don't understand how easy it is for rich people to avoid tax, so only the poor people end up paying.
