Move On dot org Polarizing the 2016 Presidential Democrat Race.

In 2008 the mega polarizers of the democrat party including Huffington Post, Move on dot org, Nancy Pelosi, Donna Brazille, Keith Olbermann, Tim Russert and Chris Matthews, MSNBC, and others claimed that Hillary Clinton was "polarizing".

It is now 2016 and one of those polarizing elements of the 2008 race who accused Hillary Clinton of being a polarizing influence are turning out to be the BIGGEST polarizers of them all, that group is Move On dot org.

Excerpt below from a Move-on dot org email. And, just clicking on the link makes one an Elizabeth Warren petition supporter even without seeing what one is clicking on first! FIVE BLIND CALL TO ACTION LINKS that automatically mean support for Elizabeth Warren running for the democrat presidential nomination, all in just this one email.  wow. I've defused the links so they are not active in this article on Daily PUMA's page.

Just because Warren might do well in the first two democrat presidential caucus and primary contests simply means Warren could weaken Hillary Clinton in the long run, and that is the very definition of polarizing, no?

Dear MoveOn member,

We commissioned a poll about Senator Elizabeth Warren's standing in critical presidential primary states, and the results are stunning: When Democratic Iowa Caucus goers and New Hampshire primary voters get to know Elizabeth Warren, they overwhelmingly want her to run for president.¹ Our poll shows that if Warren ran, she'd have a real shot. Now it's up to us, together, to convince her to run.  Click here to automatically sign our petition, which says, "Dear Elizabeth Warren: Please Run for President." We turned to industry leaders at YouGov to conduct this poll, and this is what they found: Voters love Senator Warren's personal story, her status (asTime put it) as a "new sheriff of Wall Street,"² and, importantly, her major legislative proposals—lowering student-loan interest rates, expanding Social Security, breaking up the big banks, and holding Wall Street criminals accountable.This poll shows unequivocally that a majority of voters in the two critical states of Iowa and New Hampshire are what we'd call "moveable"—they're open to supporting Sen. Warren if we can tell them what she stands for. Realistically, the results don't say that Sen. Warren would win today—but they show that Sen. Warren has a real opportunity to build the levels of support she would need to win in both states if she decided to run. Now, it's up to us to keep urging her to get in the race. Will you join us? Click here to automatically join our petition, which says, "Dear Elizabeth Warren: Please Run for President." We can make these poll results send shock waves through the political press. And through some very strategic targeting—we can get them in front of real influencers in Washington and people close to Sen. Warren. But first, we need to show that our movement continues to grow. That's why we're asking you to sign our petition today, help us get hit our latest goal of 300,000 signatures, and show that the momentum from our campaign keeps growing. Click here to automatically join our petition. It says "Dear Elizabeth Warren: Please Run for President." Let's dig into the polling numbers a little bit.Our results show that after these likely caucus goers and primary voters learn about Elizabeth Warren's biography and issue positions, not only do a stunning 79% say they want her to run, but, in both states, Sen. Warren ends up leading all other potential Democratic candidates in a head-to-head ballot question.Here's more:

• 97% of survey respondents across both Iowa and New Hampshire agree with Warren's call to lower student-loan interest rates. 

• 92% agree with Sen. Warren's call to expand Social Security benefits.

• 91% agree with her statement about breaking up the big banks.

Those numbers prove that Elizabeth Warren's vision is powerfully resonant with the voters she would need to win the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary—especially the young voters who'll be critical to any victory in 2016. Sen. Warren holds more than a 20-point lead in a head-to-head match-up with other potential candidates among respondents ages 18-29, once they learn about her. Thanks to these results, we know that support for a contested primary is nearly unanimous among all age groups, and that a core segment of the winning Obama coalition—young people—are particularly excited about Sen. Warren.Our job now is to capitalize on these results—and we can do just that by showing that this news is encouraging more and more people to join the Run Warren Run movement.  Will you join more than 283,000 other Elizabeth Warren supporters by automatically signing our petition? Just click here. This polling shows that Elizabeth Warren has a clear chance to obtain the support she needs to win—and that her story and message resonate deeply with voters.By continuing to stand up to Wall Street on behalf of America's working families and working to create a more level economic playing field, Sen. Warren herself could have more than a fighting chance of earning the Democratic nomination for president—and we're intent on proving that to her.  Click here to automatically sign the petition, and join the growing movement.  Thanks for all you do.–Mark, Ilya, Erica, Ben O., and the rest of the teamP.S.

Move On Dot Org Re-Stabs Hillary Clinton in the back with their ongoing drive to get Elizabeth Warren into the 2016 presidential race.

Daily Puma warned several years ago that the progressive wing of the democrat party would find a candidate other than Hillary Clinton to fall in love with for the 2016 presidential campaign. All you Move-on dot org supporters and supporters of their Causes petition platform help feed the anti-Hillary Clinton Move-on Dot org beast.

Here is an example where Move-on Dot Org uses a Hillary Clinton youtube video while on the side of the page they are endorsing Elizabeth Warren for 2016!

Fire Dog Lake excoriating Hillary Clinton for "attacking" Move on Dot org back in 2008.

Barack Obama staffers stab Hillary Clinton in the Back, probably committing illegal acts by being employed by Obama Administration while promoting Warren at the same time.

While DailyPUMA is not surprised to see Barack Obama staffers stabbing Hillary Clinton in the back and supporting Elizabeth Warren for 2016, it's also probably because the Barack Obama staffers are soon to be out of work.

Seems like a conflict of interest to me. Barack Obama staffers being paid by taxpayer money even as they scope out and promote their next meal ticket in Elizabeth Warren. That's actually illegal. 

If these Barack Obama staffers want to resign their Barack Obama jobs and promote Elizabeth Warren, that is one thing, but to do it while being paid by Barack Obama is incredibly obtuse, wrong, stupid, narcissistic, and probably grounds for these staffers to lose their jobs.

US Wars in Afghanistan, Iraq to Cost $6 trillion

This article link, US Wars in Afghanistan, Iraq to Cost $6 trillion basically states we will pay trillions in interest rate charges on the war debt. More than enough money to completely absorb research, development & production costs for ultra efficient solar and wind technologies.

The U.S. is probably spending 10 billion dollars a MONTH in interest rate charges just to service the war debt of the past 10 years. If the war was a noble cause, then why are those who loaned the war money profiting so handsomely and for so long?

Democrat Fundraising emails becoming Like Republicans, no new ideas, just asking for more and more money.

The democrat party seems to think that blasting their base with political fundraising emails several times a day asking for money donations will lead to victory in close congressional elections in November, 2014. 

What the democrats should be doing is telling its mailing list how they are going to help both republican and democrat consumers lower their growing consumer debt. It's really that simple.

13 Benghazi's during George Bush Jr's presidency, and Ronald Reagen's presidency had their share of Benghazi moments as well.

Not only did the George Bush Jr. presidency have several Benghazi's his watch Go back even further and the Reagan presidency had their own Benghazi moments as well.

I believe more important than getting into a republican vs democrat debate on the Benghazi issue are the 22 veteran suicides that occur EVERYDAY in the USA.

Here is a group called "Saddles For Soldiers" that is trying to make a difference. Here is another group..."Ride to Recovery" that helps wounded warriors who are back in the U.S.

Looks like DailyPUMA went over the one million mark in hits around Tuesday, August 19th, 2014.

Just noticed now, two days later, that DailyPUMA went over the 1 million visitors mark. Not sure how the google counter works since different stat counters don't pick up the same number of hits as the google counter does.

Sure wish bloggers who are always on one side or the other of the political spectrum would figure out how to be moderate from time to time.

Military Veterans who died while waiting to schedule medical appointments, what might have caused this situation.

Seems strange that there always seems to be a controversy regarding veteran medical care. During the Bush Jr. administration, squalid conditions were reported in veterans hospitals. Apparently they were then cleaned up.  

Now in Barack Obama's term, we hear reports that dozens or perhaps hundreds or maybe even thousands of veterans were delayed before being able to set an appointment. Apparently significant numbers of veterans died while waiting to either set an appointment, or to be seen after making an appointment.

I was watching David Letterman a night or two ago as he interviewed a highly decorated medal of valor when suddenly the reason hit me as to why these ongoing Veteran Medical care problems may exist. The Letterman medal of valor guest had dived on a grenade to save the soldiers around him. Mission accomplished, except for himself.

I do not recall how many surgeries this soldier went through, but it was around a 100 at the very least. Suddenly I understood the conundrum the military hospitals face on a daily basis. Intake one soldier who gave up so much, and the instinct to give them back their life as much as possible takes over.

Here is where it gets twisted. No matter how one does a military hospital budget, it may be inevitable that 2% of the patients will require 50% or more of the hospital resources. It's very difficult for that fact to be acknowledged by the bean counters and number crunchers and the result is what we get, delays for the many so the deserving few get a chance to live a semi normal life again.

Even if military hospital budgets were doubled, it still could mean that 5% of the patients require 50% of the hospital's resources, which could still mean a waiting period for others who have not been "intaked" yet.

I am very curious if the war profiteer companies ever step up and donate any of their dozens of billions of dollars in profits to help out the military hospitals in the U.S.

Is it too simplistic to correlate a solid U.S. Economy with reduced war activity?

Just going back over the past few presidencies, Is there a correlation between reduced war activity and the U.S. economy? 

Most would agree the economy was the healthiest during Bill Clinton's presidency, and for the most part, Bill Clinton stayed away from war other than the final couple of years of his presidency, and ironically, that is when his economy started to show signs of stalling.

Neither George Bush Senior or Jr. led a sustained economic growth other than having economic indicators drop so low that the rebound could be made to look like a solid economic recovery. The only perceived improvement during the Obama years seems to coincide with reduced troop sizes in war zones.

Then we have way too may wall street investment firms coming up with way too many investment schemes that add nothing to the economy but do allow them to take their cut up front. Ironically Wall Street may re-invest their undeserved profit in ways that can actually ruin the prior investment which still has to run its course, oh the irony of that.

What the media calls an improved economy and what I see as an improved economy are two different things. I see the reduction of non-renewable energy in conjunction with sustained economic activity the ideal goal. The media tends to simply view it as how much stuff got consumed and whether or not the numbers can be spun that increased consumer debt is a good thing because it is based on "consumer confidence".

Imagine if all that war money were here at home, being used for excellent health care for veterans, and perhaps several hundred thousand jobs in renewable energy creation, observation (where to place wind energy and solar cells, and installation.

Republican Impeachment Buzzards keep U.S. imperiled.

The latest conservative impeachment talk concerns the recent five for one prisoner trade with the taliban. Isn't it possible the five for one trade was tied into the upcoming reduction of american troops from Afghanistan? Is it possible the purpose of the prisoner trade was to warn the Taliban via their own returned prisoners that lower american troop totals in Afghanistan could mean more aggressive air and drone attacks, not less?

I don't pretend to know, but isn't it possible that whenever prisoner "trades" are made it is to further some type of line of communication that may benefit all in the future? It's possible right? 

If so, then why is it acceptable for republican blowhard politicians to immediately undermine any military move made by the present democrat administration? The automatic and instant undermining of the administrations actions is the very definition of a terrorist, no?

Maybe if the Republicans weren't still diverting much needed attention elsewhere back to Benghazi, they would have been included in the hostage discussion before it happened. Clearly Republican politicians have become so untrustworthy the president can't confide in them on most issues, and that is the real story behind Benghazi and the five for one prison trade.

And this repetitive cycle just means the next important issue in which republican politicians should be consulted with, will be the next important issue in which they are not consulted with. And the non-visionary republican politicians seem to like it that way since they can simply stay on the sidelines, have no real perspective, then bitch and moan whenever President Obama makes a military decision.

Karl Rove Channels Hill Street Blues for his latest tirade against Hillary Clinton.

Clearly Karl Rove wants "Fresh" when it comes to our 2016 democrat presidential candidates, but can Karl Rove pass the "fresh test" himself? 

Otherwise, what is the point of a rotten headed Rove demanding fresh anything?

At some point, Hillary Clinton supporters are going to have to start beating the snot out of Shoe Throwers, Benghazi Bobble Heads, Tea Party Puffers and Progressive Posers.

You Hillary Clinton supporters, quit being the classiest supporters among all the 2016 prospective presidential candidates. You know you are the classiest. You are the ones who are CareGivers, work a job and raise a family, have your own small business and want to treat your workers fairly, even when they don't deserve it.

The truth is, Hillary Clinton Supporters are generally the nicest people, and the poorest people as well. Unfortunately, Hillary Clinton supporters are also the ones who groan when their presidential candidate has a shoe thrown at her.

You Hillary Clinton supporters, I hope the Hillary Clinton Vegas Shoe Throwing incident was your wake up call. You can't just sit and ooh and ahh from the audience when someone throws a shoe at your presidential candidate. You literally have to kick the tar out of the person doing the throwing. 

Start a riot in protest of the Benghazi Bubbleheads, Scald the Tea Party Puffers who couldn't give a crap if 10 of their neighbors lost their homes to unfair foreclosure tactics as long as they can keep cradling their own gun, and punt the Progressive Posers back into la la land who are clueless when it comes to feeling YOUR pain.

Heck, the shoe thrower just turned around and walked out. I think she actually raised her hands to be identified, meanwhile, gasps are heard from the audience. Gasps? Are you effin kidding me? Gasps?

You women in the audience, why didn't you tackle the shoe thrower and pull on her hair and then take her other shoe off and hit her with it? 

I'm serious. 

Hillary Clinton supporters are considered a joke by the other political factions. You should be embarrassed for not rushing forward to protect your presidential candidate, and you should be mad as hell and not going to take it anymore going forward.

Millions of americans lost their homes to foreclosure after Barack Obama was elected president in 2008 and millions more CONTINUE to lose their homes because the democrat party backed a banking puppeteer who could not feel your pain and actually address the mathematical shenanigans that are robbing the non rich elite of their homes. 

Are you really going to just sit back and make groaning noises whenever someone takes a physical or verbal shot at Hillary Clinton? 

Really?

You Hillary Clinton Supporters should come to a Hillary Clinton Rally loaded for Benghazi Bobble Heads, Tea Party Puffers, and Progressive Posers who all want a piece of Hillary Clinton and have no fear that Hillary Clinton supporters actually have her back.

Do you have Hillary Clinton's back? 

If you don't have Hillary Clinton's back, then GET OUT OF THE WAY or, GET YOUR BACKBONE OUT TRACTION otherwise I'll be the one throwing the next shoe at you!

Will Tax Reform Act of 2014 do more harm than good? Will the Getty Center lose its Funding?

One proposal from the 2014 Tax Reform Act of 2014 that has apparently some in the non-profit world concerned is a proposal that all non-profit funds can only be kept for five years. I find this proposal typical of what is wrong with how the present government thinks.

Why should only the non-profit sector be forced to pay down their wealth in five years, what about applying the 5 year spend down rule to the private sector, the billionaires and trillionaires as well. This is typical rule making that may adversely affect everyone but the rich elite.

And yet, I would much rather see consumers being given incentives to pay down their debts so that they can generate more local commerce, which in turn would increase government revenue at both the state and federal level while giving more people an income stream first, than telling anyone how and when to spend their money.

In the meantime, will we be saying goodbye to the J Paul Getty Center in Los Angeles if this 5 year spend down rule becomes law?

Jon Stewart exposes Fox News Food Stamp Hysteria.

I recall Jon Stewart being one of the media in 2008 that could not shut up about the Hillary Clinton / Barack Obama nomination race and simply let the voters decide, and instead pretty much came down in favor of Barack Obama. Probably because of his audience demographics. 

But in this instance, I think his take on Fox News expose' on food stamps is hilarious. The segment about "Give a man a fish, he eats for a day, teach him how to fish, he eats for a lifetime" is priceless.

What I find disturbing is how Fox allows all of these accusations to be made without verifying if any of them are even true.

More Evidence of the Integrity of the Bill Clinton Administration (and Hillary Clinton) regarding Health Care and what to say and not say.

I believe there really was a lot of heartfelt, intelligent internal White House discussions during the Bill Clinton years in the 90's. While Barack Obama had no problem slinging out impossible promises regarding ObamaCare, the Clintons purposely stayed away from false promises. CNN exposes the difference in this article.    

I've said it before, I'll say it now. Hillary Clinton was thrown under the bus in 2008 by George Soros and the higher echelon of the democrat party because she was not going to take crap from Wall Street, and she was not going to deceive the american people over Health Care Reform.

For Barack Obama during his 2008 campaign, it seems like it really was about the sky opening up and celestial angels singing and change would magically happen, aka, saying whatever it took to get elected.

The Comedy of Rand Paul, straight from Wikipedia.

As you can see, I am crediting my source regarding Rand Paul plagiarizing several of his own speeches. I guess since I am crediting my source for this Rand Paul Plagiarizing speeches article I now cannot run for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.

In October 2013, Paul was the subject of some controversy when it was discovered that he had plagiarized from Wikipedia part of a speech in support of Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli. Referencing the movie Gattaca, Paul quoted almost verbatim from the Wikipedia article about the film without citing the source.[111][112][113]

Evidence soon surfaced that Paul had copied passages in a number of his other speeches and published works nearly verbatim from other authors without giving credit to the original sources,[114][115] including in the speech he had given as the Tea Party rebuttal to the president's 2013 State of the Union address and in a three-page-long passage of Paul's book Government Bullies, which was taken directly from an article by the conservative think thank The Heritage Foundation.[116][117]  

When it became apparent that an op-ed article Paul had published in the Washington Times and testimony he had given before the Senate Judiciary Committee both contained material that was virtually identical to an article that had been published by another author in The Week a few days earlier,[118] the Washington Times said that the newspaper would no longer publish the weekly column Paul had been contributing to the paper.[119] 

After a week of almost daily news reports of new allegations of plagiarism, Paul said that he was being held to an "unfair standard", but would restructure his office in order to prevent mistakes in the future, if that would be what it would take "to make people leave me the hell alone".[120]

Now its CNN National Political Reporter Peter Hamby attacking Hillary Clinton.

Peter Hamby writes...(about a commercial showing Graham and Hillary Clinton getting along)

"But it's the first time one of Graham's opponents has tried to make hay out of his gracious attitude toward Clinton - and it's another signal that Clinton's standing among Republicans has diminished since she left the State Department a year ago and inched her way back into the political spotlight." 

Um, no it's not Mr. Hamby, that' s just YOUR deranged conclusion interjected into what starts out as an unbiased factual article that then strays into your opinionated nonsensical conclusion, being reported as fact. 

Hamby reveals earlier in the article that there are many republicans vying to win a chance to oppose Graham this fall, and that this is just one tactic that one lesser known candidate is using. 

How does this rise to Hillary Clinton losing popularity among Republicans? It doesn't mean anything other than a political strategy. For Mr. Hamby to imply this tactic by a minor republican candidate means something bad for Hillary Clinton is simply his OPINION, being reported as fact.

It's starting already. The Cable News Networks, desperate for a political battle, are apparently encouraging their alleged journalists to stoke the flames of controversy by interjecting their own opinion into their reporting. Since Hillary Clinton is considered the leader for now, she now has to put up with red herring reports that have the ulterior motive of placing doubt on her worthiness.

I would have left a comment under the CNN Hamby article but apparently the comments were closed less than one day after the article appeared. I got the notice of article from the Daily PUMA feed, couldn't have gotten it much sooner, so I am shut out of commenting over Hamby's idiocy.
