The shit beneath my shoe has more value than your post. Kill yourself.

Thanks for the right wing troll clusterfuck, Ms. Traister. Thanks a lot. I've gotten more insight from a Bazooka Joe comic than the entirety of this thread. I miss Salon.

Joan does not seem to comprehend...

...that people who have voted are voting either for or against Clinton or Obama this Primary Season. They are not voting for or against Clinton or Obama's internet supporters.

And of the miniscule amount who actually are, they aren't responsible citizens. Period.

Congratulations Joan.

You've manged to bring the level of discourse on Salon down to that of a Craigslist Rants & Raves, or Yahoo comments, or the America Online political discussion boards.

You must be very proud.

@an unavoidably black man

among all the things that i am is a black man. As such, the historical value of many men who look like me (but are not famous) is undeniably lesser in general society. When Barack Obama entered the race, we were surprised to find that society at large valued him as a potential leader. Early on we knew that his life might be in danger, and every day we collectively breath a sigh of relief that America is one day closer to allowing a black man to live to be fully valued.

when i heard the word assassination fall from Hilary's mouth, it registered and spread throughout the black community within minutes. we did not need an uproar from the media. This hit us where our deepest fears live. It does not matter what she actually meant, it simply stands that the primary beneficiary of any ill that might befall him is her.

For her or anyone to not get what that feels like to "Me", is simply beyond belief. And then once understood for anyone like you Joan to not be able to look past the media into the hearts of black men and women who's grandfather's faced sanctioned "lynchings" makes me very sad and again less hopeful for a truly free America within which we could all express our shared pride and understand our varied experiences.

Your post is moving and poignant and and a rare gem among this trashheap of a troll-infested column. For some reason, I don't think Joan is gonna star this one.

But I get what you're saying 100%. I'm sick of pundits telling black people what they should think or feel. Thank you for your post.

Newsflash: Hillary slipped on a bananna peel in Puerto Rico today. It's Obama's fault.

Plus, Obama supporters are nasty, vile, misogynistic, reverse-racist, limp-wristed, effete, latte-sipping, cultist, birkenstock-wearing, dashiki-wearing, Ivory Tower, sexist, ultraliberal, Black Panther, Afro-Leninist, Islamofascist, Neanderthal pigs.

Stay tuned - Salon is on the case!

@Fender

it has been commonplace for liberals to call for the assasination of bush and cheney.

Better get on that Encyclopedia Brown. It's still illegal so please send your (I'm sure) voluminous and well-documented sources to the SS so they can stop this horrible menace right away.

Really, I could go on with this shit all night.

This is a Troll Clusterfuck. What a piece of shit Salon has turned into. We get the message.

Walsh is telling the media, the voters, the bogosphere, Salon readers especially, everyone must Shut The Fuck Up or voters will stay home because Hillary & Bill have been treated so badly despite the both of them being paragons of absolute immaculate perfection.

You're all on notice...STFU or Obama loses. Give Hillary the nomination or I'll blow this puppy's brains out.

@darlene.mitchell - Published Letters: 1

Thank you for your wonderful article regarding Senator Clinton's RFK reference. If we only had 2 dozen Joan Walshs we might have an equal chance in this race. You have written in this article what so many of us are thinking - the Clintons have been trashed since the campaign started. The icing on the cake was Keith Olbermann's "special comment" on Friday. Before he tumbled over the edge, he was one of my favorite talk show hosts. So many of the liberal press have gone ga-ga over Obama.

There are a blue million Clinton supporters out here and we don't know what to do to help. I have written letters to NBC and CNN complaining about their one-sided reporting. So many members of the press are now at the point of making fun of both President Clinton and Hillary. I have boycotted Keith's show, but I am sure he will not miss me.

Sign up for your local GOP office today! Oh wait...you're already a member. My bad.
