Has anyone else wondered, during all the calls for Hillary to stop running since Obama is ahead and will, according to them, be crowned the nominee, where all these calls were when SHE was way ahead, when it looked like SHE was the shoe-in? Why weren’t all these people out there hollering for Obama, and Richardson, and Edwards, et al, to get out of the race? Why the different take on it now? Could it be because Hillary played fair, while Obama does everything he can to get over on he... Read Full Story
1st question: “Sen. Clinton, why have you been so mean to Sen. Obama by chastising him for sending out brochres full of lies about you?” “Sen. Obama, why has Sen. Clinton been so mean to you?” Sound familiar? It should, it’s the treatment given to these two in every debate they’ve had, along with the fact Obama can say what he wants, for as long as he wants, and he gets to answer everything Clinton says. The same can’t be said for her. Is it a... Read Full Story
HEY!! While you guys have been sleepwalking, voting for Obama in droves because….well, mostly because “everyone else is doing it”, the Republicans have been herding you along like sheep. What’s the matter with you all?
Come on, do you really believe Republicans are voting for the #1 Liberal voter in the Senate because they like his views? Puh-leeeeze! First, he has no views with substance, only vague feel-good rhetoric mostly stolen from others. Second, since w... Read Full Story
Ok, maybe this is nitpicky, but come on, when Bill Clinton says something people construe as the least bit off, he gets raked over the coals and Hillary suffers for it. Turn about’s fair play, right? So here goes my take on Mrs. Obama’s Faux Pas.
“This is the first time in my adult life that I’ve really been proud of my country…” Really, Michelle? Not when we all pulled together to help those adversely affected by 9/11, or Hurricane Katrina? How abou... Read Full Story
I guess that sounds naive in this day and age, but it just bugs me that the only way some people can think of to express their feelings about one candidate or the other is to slime them. Hillary’s had more of that than anyone in this race, of course, but the others haven’t been immune to it, either. Maybe it’s just me, but I prefer comparing the candidate’s stances on the issues I care about than on what kind of supposed smut can be dug up about them.
Take Obama, fo... Read Full Story
It sure looks like Obama has managed to wriggle his way into the nomination, doesn’t it? Hillary seems to be all but out of the running all together. I have to say this really makes me doubt the intelligence of my fellow Democrats. Honestly, does it really make sense to anyone out there?
Since when does flowery speech carry more weight than experience and a record of accomplishments in the very areas we need so much help with these days? Yes, the man can give some pretty good speac... Read Full Story
It’s very simple: listen to their glee at every uptick of Obama’s ratings. Seriously, every Republican talking head you hear, every person flapping their gums on Faux News Network literally glow whenever they get to say that Obama is gaining on Clinton and will probably win this or that state. They are almost peeing themselves with glee, I tell you. Now, why do you think that is? They know they can walk all over him on their way to the White House, that’s why. They are... Read Full Story
It seems we have a diety running for President this year, and not because he’s a member of the Religious Right. I’m not sure what he’s done to deserve such accolades, but nevertheless, there he is, being hailed right and left as the savior of our nation. And we’ve even had Caroline Kennedy baptizing him as her father’s clone. It’s really a bit much, don’t you think?
Ok, the guy seems like a nice guy…. most of the time, anyway. He’s ... Read Full Story
Listening to Mike Barnacle on MSNBC this morning was confusing at best, totally infuriating at worst. He and the others on the show, Mika Brezynski(sp?) and Joe Scarborough, were talking about whether Hillary’s remarks about Martin Luther King and President Johnson were racist, and whether they would adversely affect her chances of getting the black voters to choose her. Of course they’re still ranting about how racist it was, except for Mika, who seemed to be more openminde... Read Full Story
