So the Iran-Contra affair just didn't happen, eh?

ETA: I mean, unless you think politifact is in her pocket, so is in fact more honest then the current crop of Republicans.

I think if someone says she's "like Republicans were 20 years ago" they have no sense of time or US history? It's more like, Republicans were like that back in the *fifties* maybe. Before the Federal Government intervened in the Civil Rights movement and Kennedy and Johnson were told that if they did that, they would "lose the South for a generation". And they did, and they did. And that's when the Republicans became the Party of Racists, Sexists, Homophobes, and Fundamentalists and the Democrats became the Party of People At Least Attempting Not to Be Those Things. When the US political parties became increasingly Flanderized.

Anyone who thinks Republicans twenty years ago were like Hilary Clinton is now must not have been not old enough, or even alive, twenty years ago. They did not live through the 1980s Christian Right movement, or experience what the Republicans did to the Clintons when Bill was in office.

ia, it's patently absurd to pretend that she's like the modern republicans. That said, I think what people mean is that she's a neo-con like most republicans and opportunistic as fuck like more republicans than democrats openly are. But except for war-hawking, you simply can't compare social or economic positions.

When the US political parties became increasingly Flanderized.

I don't know, I don't think anything can top the Federalists v. Anti-Federalist/Democratic Republicans. Nothing I've seen has come close to stauchness of those positions. Slavery was a hell of beast.
