When Hillary was a Goldwater girl in the sixties and no one on hear is upset with that. plus Obama never said Reagan was a good President there taking his statement and twisting it for political gain.

7. lets all stop the bashing
i pledge never to bash a democrat running for president. how old was hillary in the 60's? lots of teens do things they dont do as adults. its means nothing she was a goldwater girl. and obama is as solid a liberal as you can get. he doesnt deserve this bashing over his comment.

8. "no one on here is upset with that"
What makes you think that no one is upset with Hillary's past? I've seen it mentioned several times.

Furthermore, Obama made his statement quite recently. HRC's said plenty of things -- recently -- that upset me as well!

Don't think hypocrite is the right word.

10. No need to relive the 1960s
Not when we have this little gem from Hillary's very own web site:

Her list of favorite presidents - Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Lincoln, both Roosevelts, Truman, George H.W. Bush and Reagan - demonstrates how she thinks. As expected, Bill Clinton was also included on the aforementioned list.

14. Did they make this up?
Hillary couldn't possibly have name-dropped Reagan and Bush when she was trying to win the backing of a Republican-leaning paper in rural New Hampshire, could she? Surely, she would never do such a thing!

15. How the hell does anyone know
if they misquoted her. Until someone pulls up her own statement, in her own words, it's just BS.

17. (here not hear and they're not there) Let's see if I have this right...
Hillary in the 60s was for Goldwater, when she was barely old enough to vote, yet that is commensurate with Obama evoking Reagan, the murderer of Central American elected officials and innocent civilians...a president quite reminiscent of the sociopath occupying our White House currently, in a speech (or interview) THIS week.
