Can you provide some additional context to this? A quick search on google and Snopes didn't yield anything for me, but maybe I'm not using the right search words.
The link was in the post I quoted, albeit broken, and I fixed it in my post. Here it is, just to be clear:
http://www.snopes.com/clinton-byrd-photo-klanAlso, do you have an actual opinion on any of this? You are well known for having opinions, as well as writing fairly long reflections. However in this case it seems you've been reduced to short quips, and essentially parroting the narrative for Hillary, which is essentially, "even if she's done shady shit, she's still better than Trump." I think that is a sad position to take, but if I am off base then correct me.
Regarding the email issue, it is genuinely shitty. However, I do feel that the issue is receiving something of a, how best to put it,
disproportionate response from the Republicans in Congress who are apparently trying to make this out to be the worst political scandal in American history. Hillary did something stupid, and then she tried to cover it up in a stupid way. That's certainly not something I want our leaders to be doing. But it pales in comparison to some of the shit that politicians and/or the government in general have done in recent years and continue to do today. I don't see this huge, months-spanning investigation being a priority for any other reason other than political ones - that is to say, trying to sink Hillary's presidential campaign, something that I find very frustrating. To put it another way, corrupt politicians should be investigated and brought down for the sake of justice, not so their equally-corrupt rivals can benefit from their absence.
The latest Trump thing is hardly worth arguing about. Of course the picture was made by racists, and of course the star was meant to refer to Jews. Everyone here knows it, and so does Trump, as indicated by his removal of the image when the backlash got too strong. As his supporters here so often remind us, Trump is a smart guy and a savvy politician. He knows he has a strong following among racists, and he's doing his best to take advantage of it as much as he can without alienating mainstream America. Bringing up Trump's family or arguing about what he truly feels in his heart is beside the point. This is a political tactic of his; nothing more, nothing less.
And while I won't be voting for her myself, yes, Hillary is still preferable to Trump. I fully agree that it's a sad position to take.
