Hillary Clinton: Republicans don’t govern based on facts because they are ‘impervious to evidence’

Hillary Clinton speaks to CNN (screen grab)
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton defended her change in positions over the years by drawing a contrast with Republicans, who she said were “impervious to facts.”
During an interview on CNN, host Jake Tapper pointed out that a 2008 Obama campaign memo echoed criticism of Clinton during this election cycle. In recent weeks, opponents have knocked Clinton for switching positions on the TPP trade deal with Asia, tougher financial regulation and the Keystone XL pipeline.
“There isn’t anybody, anybody I know in politics who hasn’t changed a position from time to time except some Republican who are impervious to evidence and change circumstances,” she added. “I think anyone who looks at what I have fought for and stood for my entire adult like on behalf of kids and families and women and the middle class and economic opportunity knows that I have been very steady.”
“And yes, do I look at evidence and try to figure out what’s the best way forward to achieve the goals that I hold? Yes, I do do that.”
i may have missed it but this is the first positive report on what she said here that i have heard and my friends it is spot on.  there is a pile higher than all of Trump's buildings stacked on their dismissing facts in favor of a more delicious contrived misinforming.  their personal network of duplicity FOX is all to willing to accommodate and keep the deceptions afloat, then republicans repeat verbatim and the base carries the water with all the in place fail safes why do they keep failing nationally??????
