Hillary: America Will Rise Again "From The Ashes Of The Bushes"

In a passionate speech introducing Joe Biden at a campaign rally in Scranton, Pennsylvania this afternoon, Hillary Clinton gave a strong endorsement to Barack Obama by celebrating the end of the Bush administration, shouting:

"Make no mistake about it. We've done it before and we will do it again. America will once again rise from the ashes of the Bushes."

It's the second time in the last week that she's used the dramatic line - last Monday, she said that "America can rise again as we have before from the ashes of the Bushes" in a forceful speech at the 8th Annual Eleanor Roosevelt Legacy Committee Luncheon in New York City.

This afternoon, she also slammed John McCain and the Bush administration's response to the financial crisis, criticizing them for bailing out large companies while "millions of people are losing their homes and jobs every single day! Where's their bailout?"

And she said that sending Republicans back to Washington to clean up the economic mess was like "sending a bull to clean up the china closet. They broke it and we're not buying it anymore."

Biden, demonstrating again that he is the Obama campaign's pit bull, slammed the McCain campaign's recent attacks that focused on Obama's association with Bill Ayers, accusing the Republican candidate of "relying on political stunts instead of offering solutions" and calling McCain "erratic."

The Democratic vice-presidential nominee shook his head as he noted "the ugly inferences and unbecoming personal attacks that have been directed and launched by the McCain campaign."

And he mocked Sarah Palin's record of questioning how much of a role man-made causes had to do with global warming: "How the heck are you going to solve a problem if you don't know what's causing it?"

Thank you, Senator Clinton. You said you would campaign your heart out for Barack Obama, and you have, and you are.

You and I are cool, Senator.

Charity Froggenhall, it is true that Hillary Clinton promised to campaign for Obama. She did a wonderful job talking to her former supporters. She was right that the ASHES OF BUSH HAS TO BE CLEANED BY DEMOCRATS. I also know that Hillary & Bill Clinton will work hand in hand with President Obama to re-shape the economy and foreign affairs.

"Ashes of the Bushes"...­I like it.

But the Bushes did not act alone - we have to save America from the ravages of the Republicans.

The only way that I believe we can save the Republican Party is by reducing the number of elected positions that they hold drastically enough to cause them to reevaluate their priorities.

To whit, force them to prioritize morality, ethics, and the American people before money.

There are plenty of DINOS and Blue Dog Dem's that helped the Booo$h's create those ashes, when the rise starts they also need to be part of the cleansing.

America will not improve until the kind of people that were at Macpalin rallies become educated and decent.

[shamiso]

The Macpalin they are a bunch of desperate loosing people who have no proper message for the American people, they think if they intimidate people by smearing Obama it will work for them. That was then, before the internet era this 21st century, people are smarter than them. They are forgetting some other states had early voting.
