Ipsas Loquitor. Anybody this phenomenally, abysmally stupid needs only to be read to declare himself for what he ( "Inspire") truly is.

Homophobic and jealous ??? Are you insinuating the HRC is gay ?? And even if she were, who really gives a rat's ass ?? And what exactly would all us women out here be jealous of ?? That she is nearly $20 million in debt or that she can't turn her back on her husband ???


Puhleeeeeeze. Barbara nailed it; new lows in bad behavior for women in politics is hardly progress.

I will be SOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy when all this divisive bullsh*t is over and we can get on with the business of electing a President to heal our nation, get us all going in the right direction once more. posted 05/14/2008 at 17:49:34

Hey, POdVet---


psssssttttt----Rezko was a frequent guest at the Clinton White House, tons of dinners and there are photos to prove it.( some with HRC). Save your fire for when it's needed. Neither candidate is going to clear the Rezko test. At least Barack gave the $$ back, and is STILL many millions ahead of Billary. :) posted 05/01/2008 at 18:45:27

What hard work has HRC done, please ? She hasn't campaigned harder than any other candidate. Are you referring to her Senate voting record, a singularly cowardly accounting. ( psssssssst---she was courting her first love, moderate Republicans ) You can't mean her "foreign affairs" experience, consisting of a tin tea pot from Ireland and a collection of colorful stamps in her passport. Let's not EVER forget, Missus C voted FOR Iraq; i.e.,Hillary Clinton contributed to us being in Iraq.
Obama has lived the Dem ideology when it would've been easier to, oh let's say, represent Wal-Mart or make gazallions off shady land deals in Arkansas. He's represented Illinois well, never once stooping to parody Dubbya to ingratiate himself.
Mr Andrews shows courage & I'm grateful a Dem has the stones to do that . John McCain is coming up fast in the rear-view mirror--we don't have time for any more Clinton slash and burn. I don't give a rat's ass what a pastor said/didn't say, whether Obama wears a flag pin. Hell, I don't wear one and I dare anybody to question my patriotism. It's all too silly. We need to embrace our candidate and GET TO WORK to win in Nov.
Dream ticket ? Obama and Edwards. My BD is in August and that's what I want. :) posted 05/01/2008 at 18:37:17

Know what ?? I'm gettin' kinda sick of Barack Obama continually being designated as a "Black" candidate. Barack Obama is BI-RACIAL, which should suggest to any reasonable person that he represents the best of all worlds, is able to speak to the concerns of all, in addition to minorities. Too bad middle America is having so much difficulty with that concept; and in reality, it would seem the MSM stokes those fires quite deliberately.
As for the esteemed Rev Wright, while there is no doubt he is a powerful orator and holds views practically identical to Ron Paul ( BTW, since you don't see Mr Paul on the horizon anywhere, that might be considered a word to the wise, i.e., sadly, non-Black America isn't ready to hear that message.....yet.) Someone with a sotto voce needs to articulate these issues, and Rev Wright would never fit anyone's definition of sotto voce.
While I immensely respect the man and what he's done with his ministry, I truly wish he'd sit down and shut the hell up. He seems much more interested in furthering his own agenda during his 15 minutes in the spotlight than he is invested the larger view, namely seeing Barack Obama as POTUS. He simply must realize that he is polarizing voters with his comments, which isn't fair but is our reality. For me, that reality speaks particularly eloquently for the rationale of electing Obama. Who better to heal our ills ? posted 04/28/2008 at 15:45:09

Obama's comment on his grandmother being a "typical white woman" was meant to educate those who think he is a white-hating bigot.

Pot, let me introduce you to Kettle, aka gala1.

Are you actually saying here, in black and white ( pun intended), that Dubbya is/was a "rhetoritician" ??? I mean, really ? REALLY ?? And, I was under the general assumption that the GOP didn't operate under the aegis of dreams, but of bank accounts.

The good fortune of capable accomplishments ?? Are we talking dodging sniper fire in Bosnia here, or maybe the opening of the Macedonian border ?? Or maybe you mean having tea with the acitivist Irish wives ?? Are those the glorious capable accomplishments you refer to ? How 'bout being chummy-chums with Rezko, representing Wal-Mart, taking hundreds of thousands from pharmaceuticals for her campaign...oh, and while we're about cataloguing her accomplishments, lets' take a look at WhiteWater and Vince Foster, that is, if you have the stomach for it. Then there's that awkward bizness about Mark Penn from her campaign and Columbia ( $300K worth), a 180 from her alleged NAFTA position. Then there's always downing a shot and a beer on national prime-time TV, a ludicrous effort to convince people she's "just like us". Yeah, St. Billary.
If this woman wasn't the wife of a notoriously unfaithful President, ANY other sophomore Semator with as middle-of-the-road voting record as HRC's would never have gotten the nod to run.

Um, Neo---has no one explained to you that thanx to Dubbya's diddling with the budget, vets come home from Iraq unable to get medical treatment, can't even get their prescriptions filled ? Would these be some of the folks sitting on their asses you refer to ? ( being an RN, I can argue this fiercely with you). As for remembering the troops, I pray every night my loved ones come home, in ONE PIECE, they way Dubbya sent them there. I think your user ID says it all. We really can't expect too much from you. BTW, what happens when the day comes that you can't work any longer ? WHO exactly do you think will take care of you ? Ya think the GOP will bring you cupcakes and bedpans ?

Ya know what, hanemg, I think you've got it right. Don't forget, HRC was a foaming-at-the-mouth Republican until she hooked up with Bill. She switched parties ( and horrified her GOP Dad) and switched horses. She also seems to switch home states often, according to election years. Yah, I see an Indie HRC in the near future. This woman is blood-thirsty to be POTUS and will take whatever route, up to & incl a contract with the devil ( Karl Rove?) to get there. Loyalty has never been a barrier for her. posted 04/25/2008 at 16:18:25

Mudfiles said: "If Clinton doesn't have good enough judgement to see that she can't win, then why should we trust her judgement to run a country?"


This seems like such patently obvious logic that I am unsure why we're having all this hue and cry about super-delegates, polls, voter's voices being heard, etc etc . The Clintons have always maintained a fiercely guarded legacy of entitlement, this election has underscored it, perhaps more than ever in their shared history with our nation. What Billary doesn't seem to grasp is that all this mayhem is taking a toll, digging a trench for whomever secures the Dem nom, because McBush et al will be turning our own gun on us. Soon.
Of course the vox populi must be counted, must be exercised, but common sense must prevail for the good of the party, that is, if this election doesn't decimate it beyond repair. I predict this brou-ha-ha will spawn a whole new generation of independents, which may not be such a tragedy at the end of the day. posted 04/24/2008 at 14:08:43

This is NOT Miley Cyrus, like a previous poster noted, looks like her from a side or 3/4 view, but it isn't her. This is yet another internet hoax that the mindless unwashed masses seem to crave, and tarring the reputation of a young girl really is reprehensible. Get over it, people. Real things are happening every day in this country that deserve your attention and energy. This isn't one of them. posted 04/25/2008 at 16:10:33

Rbo7 said" there was Obama's conflicted feeling for his biracial heritage and his adult choice to seek a black identity and a black surrogate father-figure in Wright".
I'm sorry, am I missing something ? Are you purporting to be an intimate of Barack Obama ? You'd know his innermost feelings on his ethnic make-up how, exactly ? His adult choice to seek a Black identity ?? Do you REALLY believe he ever had a choice ?? Take a bite outta the ole' reality sammich, snooks. I have two bi-racial adult kids, same heritage as Barack. They were NEVER afforded the opportunity to be anything other than Black, since they were little girls in parochial school -the Principal made them check "Black" on information forms because it was her opine that's what "they were". This is a gutless, sly form of bigotry, this lambasting of Obama through his minister. This is no different than saying all us Catholics are pedophile supporters because priests were convicted of child-molestation. If you'd ever been to a Black church, you'd get that it isn't about the rhetoric but the spirit. I can't imagine Obama ever imagined he'd be nationally catsigated because of sermons his pastor gave ! Unless you Bible thumpers out there are ready to take the rap for Jim Baker and all the rest of the clergy who fell so unceremoniously from grace, I'd back-pedal and try another perspective. One that has it's roots in clear thinking and not closet bigotry. posted 03/25/2008 at 19:09:21

Psssssst---Ginko----
Bad news, darlin':Hillary did NOT arrive in Bosnia until day AFTER the borders opened. She wasn't instrumental in opening the border. Didn't happen. She had no role in Irish peace talks.Irish notables ( who actually DID have a role) have been quoted in the press- " it's a wee bit silly". Unless you count having tea with Irish women activists a "heavy role in the peace talks" ?? A prior poster explained she'd NEVER have been allowed to de-plane if snipers were firing. See You-Tube videos of her accepting flowers from a little girl on the tarmac ( she was using her invisible force field , huh ?). I'm a mature woman, supposedly HRC's demographic, but she's not who we need to lead our country. What's she hiding with her tax returns? maybe nervous about $$$ from pharmaceutical co's and Rezko ?? ( she accepted campaign contributions & had pics taken with him.)
Hill's not much different from Dubbya, except she sports an upgraded vocabulary. She'll utilize any egregious strategy, to get her power-mad ass into that Oval Office chair. Caveat Emptor, America. Question division she has fostered ( posted 03/25/2008 at 18:52:30

More and more, I see how this campaign divides Dems right down the middle, at a time when the party should be enjoying an historic, history-altering event.
I'm surprised at the naivete of some of the posters. I perceived this to be cognoscenti site, the best of the well-informed. As to the infamous blue dress, any other sophomore Senator with as solidly middle-of-the-road, gutless voting record as Hill would NEVER get the nod , unless they happened to be spouse to a popular ex-Prez. Were it not for Bill's legendary indiscretions, Hillary would not HAVE a political career. Deals were struck after those Gennifer Flowers,Paula Jones & Monica moments and anyone who believes otherwise probably also still puts out cookies for Santa. Obama opted the high road & made a valiant effort to maintain that, despite viral email campaigns denouncing him as Muslim ( therefore unpatriotic/suspect), and many other dirty tricks from a Rovian school of pol, someone Hill has publicly admired. Hill can't have it both ways; if she wants to wear the Loretta Lynn cape,leaning on the "disappointing and difficult time it was", she & Chelsea ( nearly 30, hardly a child) can cowboy up and answer.It was a missed opp, Chelsea could've turned that into a glorious victory instead of a huffy retort. If the Clintons are headed for the WH again, all questions are fair game for all those on the campaign trail. After all, once a cheater.... posted 03/26/2008 at 21:20:21
