The Syphillis thing is real, it happened, and Congress had to apologize for it.

You don't have to have some sort of mental disorder to fear, and yes perhaps hate the government that allows this sort of thing to happen. In fact, having a negative attitude against such a government would be considered very sane -- except in your mind only communist China or Russia or Nazi Germany is capable of these infractions.

A closer inspection of US history reveals that "the good old days" and the glorious past are fiction. How do you think Native American's feel about their Hitler being on our $20 bill? What side of the Civil War would the modern Republican have been on? What of the overt concentration of Japanese nationals during World War II? Where were the concentration camps for Italians and Germans? How about the continuing war on the black male in the guise of the Drug War -- really, a class war on the poor. Or poor rural whites, the kind in West Virginia and Arkansas who overwhelmingly favor Clinton who is herself complicit in their virtual indentured servitude to Walmart, the coal industry or Con-Agra foods?

I'm not suffering some syphallitic fever, Elephantman. But this country is, and it needs a shot in the ass STAT.

Its not reasonable evidence in anything HIV related, but the existence (and longevity) of the experiment is enough to fuel suspicions about government from an oppressed minority (American blacks).

What can be said about American involvement with the spread of AIDS is largely provable, however: we did withhold medicine and funds for seemingly political reasons, we do discourage frank and realistic discussion about prevention methods considered immoral by the religious right, and we had a US Congressman, a doctor, claim that it could be passed through tears.

So if anything, we are at least considered the world's backward, redneck, moron nation when it comes to preventative health being diluted with the backwash of politics and religion.

I don't personally believe our government is competent enough to have manufactured AIDS, but the possibility cannot be outright dismissed by anyone.

Needs to put Hillary in a funny hat and make her stand in the corner.

It's over.

Why does Clinton need Fodder? She's out of the race..

I will preface this by saying that I'm sure Clinton True-Believers probably feel the same about Obama True-Believers, and here we go..

Hillary Clinton, to me, is like the Grateful Dead. Like the GD, I am a couple of generations removed from HRC's political demographic "center of gravity."

Like the GD, I don't understand what is "cool" or "appealing" about HRC.

Like the GD, I find HRC tiresome and derivative. And like the GD, I find that HRC just doesn't know how to wrap up a painfully long, boring and repetitive "jam session".

Does this make Obama Phish? No.. That's Kerry and Edwards..

Barack Obama is Ween -- the jam band that everyone can love (or hate), lots of talent, a fresh twist on things, and a new take on the tired old formula.

As much as I wanted to see Elliott Smith win (Mike Gravel), or Can (Kucinich), in the end it came down to Ween or the Grateful Dead.

Obama is for Democrats who are bored and sick of going through the motions, and Clinton is "Casey Jones" drivin' that train all the way to mediocreville.

Litigation is the new black. Wake me when this is over and Clinton still lost.

As the saying goes: "It's funny, because its true!"

You can't have it both ways. Either Hillary Clinton is an adult and a tough, accomplished person, or she's a weak, fairer-sexed delicate flower.

If the latter, she certainly has no business campaigning for any high elected office. If the former, lighten up. She can take it.

Its not so much that Lieberman is a Jew, its that he and a sizable portion of the cadre of right-wing nut-jobs in the ranks of modern Neo-conservatives are dumb, dumb, dumb.

Its quite simple: there's no Jewish conspiracy to control the US government. There's a US government conspiracy to make dummies like Lieberman dance and laugh all the way to the bank with truckloads of cash made from arms deals, conflict teasing, playing on all sides of all contests and of course a larder of cash funnel from lobbies like PNAC and AIPAC into the pockets of the rich, white, old-moneyed men that really run things in this country.

Keep playing along, and we'll let Billy Kristol and Joey Lieberman get the good tee times at Pebble Beach.

That's the truth you don't want getting out, Electro Robot. Jewish superiority is a myth, because clearly a good number of them are daft simpletons, dumber than the crackers in West Virginia.

Joe Lieberman, big dummy.

She's got chutzpa, you have to give her that.

Last I check, this was the United States of America, not Israel. Am I wrong? Let me know if I'm wrong. I'll take down the stars and stripes and fly the star of David instead, its a better looking flag anyway. Shalom!
