Want to know something scary?

She may be the next president if you don't share this with everyone that you know. Oh my God forbid!!!

How do we test the veracity of these statements? I am going to try to find the setting for each...

eta: SNOPES did the work for me.... HERE (http://www.snopes.com/politics/clintons/marxist.asp)

[TFOGGER]

Snopes' adding context does little to change the content or intention of her statements. Just because she's talking about taking tax cuts away from wealthy Democrats doesn't excuse the fact that she's in favor of the .gov confiscating the assets of the successful to finance their expanding reach. Her warning the oil companies that "they are being watched" just reaffirms that she is unwilling to let market forces take their course. She is, and will continue to be a statist, leftist, totalitarian.

I don't trust her any more after reading the SNOPES article. I wanted to verify she said those things and not just regurgitate something I saw on the interwebs as fact.

I agree, the context does little to change the sentiment of what was said.

Agreed![Beer]

She would make the Obama administration seem like the good ol' days.

How do I verify Snopes is telling the truth?
She is a woman, that is all I need to know.[Coffee]

[Big E3]

How do I know that Hillary said all those things? I saw a video once of her lips moving, that's all I needed.

[roberth]

I remember Hillary Rodham Clinton saying a couple of those things but I didn't know she said them all.

The only difference b/t Hillary and Barack is that Hillary has a twig and berries.

Nothing will make the Obama administration seem like the good old days.

[Aloha_Shooter]

I actually trust Snopes less these days because of all the shading on anything remotely political. They're still good for checking urban myths and Internet legends but they're almost as bad as PolitiFact in the political bias.

[spqrzilla]

That's the problem, because SNOPES is partisan.

[clodhopper]

Is there a snopes equivalent with less bias?

[Bailey Guns]

No shit!
