Hey asshole, you still haven't named the corrupt act for which you accused her. Until you do that I will defend her. If her only "crime" is mean tweets that ship sailed 4 years ago so I support her her nomination as of now.

Dropping turds without any evidence again. You are a dickhead.
Do I really have to spoonfeed you or are you really this stupid ?

Moreover, her particular record would raise significant red flags as a job applicant for even a mid-level management position in any organization, much less the White House: during her tenure running the Center for American Progress, she reportedly outed a sexual harassment victim and physically assaulted an employee. While she was running the organization, CAP raked in corporate and foreign government cash and a report was revised in a way that helped a billionaire donor avoid scrutiny of his bigoted policing policy. Critics allege that Tanden busted a union of journalists. And she floated social security cuts when Democrats in Congress were trying to stop them.

Even if you discount Tanden’s infamous statement about Libya and oil, as well as her vicious crusade against Senator Bernie Sanders and the progressive base of the Democratic party, all of these other items would seem to disqualify Tanden for a job atop a Democratic administration that claims to respect expertise and want to protect women, workers’ rights, social programs and government ethics.

After 4 years of explicitly and implicitly supporting corruption you should be able to easily spot it. This article DOES NOT specify any corrupt act by Neera Tanden.

What did Neera Tanden do that was corrupt? I'm not an expert on corruption but I can easily name from memory a few acts by Trump.

Using his government position to funnel money to his businesses.
Lying about the report of the Khashoggi assassination ordered by MBS
Choosing Putin over his own country concerning Russian election interference.

You didn't condone any of these clearly corrupt acts. See that? It's pretty easy to list a corrupt act.

What's funny about his response is that everything listed (attacking sexual harassment victims, union busting, cutting SS, attacking Bernie etc) Republicans should love. So why do that hate her? Oh right, mean words.

I have to say while it was entirely predictable it’s still annoying that as they pretend to care about mean tweets and such they appear to genuinely think we should either believe them or at least pretend to believe them. I guess they are so used to shamelessly lying they are confused when people don’t play along.

And you should be against - but seeing nothing but a bunch of people defending her is... in all honesty... FUCKING hilarious lol. This whole time I've been laughing my ass off to an exponential level.

Seriously, this whole thread I've just been laughing my ass off as people valiantly come out of the woodwork in their armour + sword to defend a complete piece of shit - for zero reason - just because dat evil republitard said she is bad.

The partisanship... is hilarious... and it's clearly a plague amongst you ignorant fools that continue to eat each other under the guise of purity akin to Nazism.

Please continue your hilarious showing of ignorance and incompetence, it's been delectable /cheers.

So, ummmm, which is it? We are bad people because we "defend" her or we are bad people because we "eat each other under the guise of purity akin to Nazism." :rolleyes:

I just read through 2 pages of posts and didn't see much defending her but rather asking what corrupt act makes her ineligible. Pretty unsurprising that the OP still hasn't answered that one question. If it tuned out that she did some real corrult shit like colluding with the Russians, or using her political position for personal gain, or asking for assistance from a foreign government to win an election I would totally agree. But until I see something about something, I will refrain from judgements.

Sure, "laughing your ass off" "purity akin to Nazism" blah blah blah. Now please provide evidence of your accusation of corruption or admit you fucking lied.

This should now be the sole response to any further posts of his until the matter is resolved.

Yep. We would do well to heed this statement. Our deranged liberal brains want to fix his retarded conservative brain with facts and logic. This is our lot in life I guess.

I am sure OP will stumble back into his threads after a few drinks and give us what he thinks is an "ah ha" that proves his point before scampering off into the corner while his statements are shredded. His lot in life is to post drivel and ours is to try to show him how wrong he is. We too are broken...

Ok, after reading up on this situation, thoughts:

1. If information regarding Tanden is accurate, she's a huge turd sammich. Yes, I read someone's link, and the links out of it, while googling other info
2. I haven't actually read about specific instances of corruption, I'm open to more information, but it seems like conjecture at this point.
3. After years of defending actual chargeable corruption, Republicans are now trying to complain about it, but I haven't actually read about acts of corruption.
4. Tanden seems like a candidate that Conservatives would fawn over if she put an "R" next to her name.

I respectfully, but vigorously disagree. She's been in the trenches of partisan warfare, which her twitter record reflects. In this day and age, so fucking what? Seriously!

The pearl clutching hypocrisy of the Republicans beggars belief.

That's fine, and I understand what you're saying. I'm not exactly saying it matters, considering how low the R's have set the bar now.

Well, yea, they're hypocrites to the max whose response to it pointed out is: "no u"

Ha ha! Neera Tanden's nomination has been rescinded by the white house.

Christ, if they gave HALF the amount of effort they did to try and push her through as they did with $15 minimum wage they might have actually accomplished something.


Also seeing so many people here defending a war-mongering, union busting, corporate lobbyist piece of shit... confirms what I suspected. You would drink poisonous koolaid in half a second without a thought as long as it had a D on the cup.

Most progressive - non-corporatist - union-favored - and universal healthcare favor folks here should be cheering this on and been cheering from the start of this thread. Instead you all were a documentary of how big of a partisan hacks you are. Carry on, losers. It's been fucking hilarious.
