Clinton is not a racist. She has '35 years of experience' (as she reminds us ad absurdum) to prove she's not a racist. Obama is not a racist. He has been a successful community organizer with years of experience bringing disparate factions together. John Edwards is not a racist. He has spent his professional career as a lawyer bringing justice to the victims of avaricious abuse by the insurance industry. This is so not an issue. It is manufactured by a media that has much to gain from controversy. If anyone is a racist it's Tim Russett, Hanritty, O'Reilly, Linbaugh, and, yes, even Salon, and all the rest, who take quotes out of context, exploit statements, and just make shit up in order to pursue their agenda of making it seem like these people harbor racist leanings. Point of fact, the GOP loves it. Point of fact, the GOP ARE racists. Remember Florida 2000, remember Ohio 2004. We should not lose track of that fact and we should stop second guessing any of these three DemocratIC candidates. Remember who the real enemy is and stop carving and slicing. Any one of these three candidates are better than what the alternative might be. Let's not lose sight of that. Keep your eyes on the prize!

I don't believe that it was the Obama camp who raised the issue of him not being 'black enough.' I don't recall it being Obama who said he was educated at a terrorist camp. I don't think Obama would repeatedly mispronounce his first name as Osama. I doubt it was Obama who put words into Bill Clinton's mouth that the Vegas caucus was being hogtied by special interests (you know, those hotel workers who were not allowed to take part, the ones who won a lawsuit over that fact, and the ones who, after Clintons' remarks and lawsuit put together the pro-Obama ad). I doubt it was Obama who implied he was a dope addict at a pro-Hillary rally. Funny about that one: our current idiot-in-chief used to dabble in the 'devil's powder' quite heavily apparently, but that is sequestered information not to be mentioned in the MSM (along with most other things concerning his management of the government); but, of course, we know Bill didn't inhale (which I found disturbing, along with his saying that Paul was his favorite Beatle). I'm not real sold on Obama, he strikes me a little too much of a demagogue in the making, but play fair. And I still like Edwards.

Did Obama endorse the ad? Was he seen saying 'I am Barack Obama and I support this ad?' If not, how is he even associated with this? Aren't supporters of a given candidate (union or otherwise)allowed to express their opinions? No one griped very loudly when John Kerry was crucified by the 'Swift Boat Vets.' And that was out and out slander. And what about 'John McCain's love child?' This is much ado about nothing designed to derail Obama's mo. It was Big Bill Clinton, after all, who started this mess by attempting to suggest that disenfranchising working people in Vegas was a good thing. But I still like Edwards.

Rob Reiner has certainly bottomed out after Spinal Tap. If even the trailers can't make you quasi interested, it must be crap. Seems like an empty, vapid pretentious exercise. It's greatest achievement is exposing Nicholson and Freeman as the whores they are--dancing pigs, give 'em a check and there's not stopping how low they'll stoop, witness 'As Good as it Gets' f'rinstance. It is very depressing to see such talent (see 'The Departed' or 'Chinatown') wasted in such pap (I have yet to understand why Freeman is considered a 'great actor'; even in his best role, in 'The Unforgiven,' he was merely adequate).

'I'm trying to think how to say this in a gentlemanly fashion'? Okay DICK, you just implied that Congress are 'girly-men' who dance to Speaker Pelosi's tune, who, you said 'Drives that train.' Yeah,we know what THAT means. Very gentlemanly of you, nudge-nudge, wink-wink. So, if you can't engage in intelligent debate, attack the sexuality of your opponent, suggest that the United States Speaker of the House of Representatives, a DEMOCRATICALLY elected Congressperson, is a gangbanging slut, yes, how gentlemanly of you. How sad for the rest of us. The rest of us, you know, the citizens of the USA who have people like you, degenerate, mandacious, truly evil beings holding us hostage to the the scorn and ridicule of the rest of the world. Drive that train, Mr. Vice President? Drive that train? I can suggest where your place on that train should be. And you don't even deserve a napkin.

Oh, and just thinking... why is it called 'a Hummer' in the first place? Is THAT what the drivers of them REALLY want (not that there's anything wrong with that)? And if so, why are they all so down on Clinton? Envy? MY big complaint about Clinton was that he had such lousy taste in women. I mean he coulda had Goldie Hawn and Barbra Streisand (I mean, he probably did) but he settled for Monica. (Okay, so now I've insulted the horizontally challenged... yes, yes, wide girls need love too, as do wide men, and guys who wear their pants around their tits; gotta cover the bases these days... and we're back to the article). I tell ya', you just can't win.
