Since 2000, the American people have sat back and done NOTHING as our Government has tortured, wiretapped and fought an unnecessary war -- IN OUR NAME! -- and you get your panties in a wad over Obama attending a liberal church for 20 years?

Catholics have continued to attend Mass all through the sex scandal involving priests and their superiors who covered up for them -- for DECADES!

Are you kidding me?

I am sick to death of people telling Rev Wright -- Obama and all the rest of us how we are supposed "feel" and "act."

Just take responsibility for what has happened on your OWN watch. For the last 8 years, Americans have been derelict in their duty. ALL Americans.

Thank goodness.

You can go back to your earlier Century now.

You aren't wanted here...

Perhaps this is a good thing, in the end...

Unlike with Bush Jr, Obama, the "son" has obviously surpassed and outgrown Wright, the "father." Obama won't have to spend his entire presidency trying NOT to do everything "Poppy" did -- they way GW did to such disastrous results.

Obama has nothing to prove. It is obvious he is his own man.

I mean, my God, JFK's Dad was a womanizing, corrupt, former bootlegger Isolationist!

What is most discouraging is the continued "tribalism" of White America.

Close your eyes and imagine that Rev. Wright had been a rotund, pink-cheeked Schismatic Episcopalian priest who thought girls shouldn't be "Alter Boys." Or a scholarly Italian-American priest who hated Vactican II reforms. Or a Protestant bible-thumper who thought gays will rot in hell...or we could have been dealing with Mitt Rommney and the Church of LDS.

I have confidence in my candidate -- but I am not sure I have confidence in the people of the US (their track record lately has been bad!) and I have little or no confidence in the MSM -- and -- Salon, you have been a bit iffy these days too...

Anything that Hillary thinks, is OK is fine.

Anything that Hillary thinks is icky, is horrid.

When is Joan going to stop being an apologist for her nightmare of a campaign?

THE ONLY WAY THAT HILLARY CAN WIN IS TO "WIN DIRTY."

AND IF SHE WINS DIRTY, AFRICAN-AMERICANS AND THE NEW, YOUNG VOTERS WILL BE LOST TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY -- PERHAPS FOR DECADES.

The sooner pundits like Joan start preparing Hillary supporters to understand this, the better it will be for progressives and liberals in the United States.

And before I sign off -- I think it is disgusting when women allow men to treat them like "one of the boys" when it suits them but get all sensitive about being a feminist the rest of the time. Most women don't have that freedom. Shame on Hillary. Just another way she betrays real feminists.

1. African-Americans are almost completely ANTI-WAR! They do not support Hillary because she voted for the war. People seem to forget that once the African-American community became convinced that Obama had a chance to in -- after Iowa -- they started supporting him heavily -- BECAUSE OF HIS STANCE AGAINST THE WAR!!

2. African-Americans will leave the Democratic Party IN DROVES, if Hillary steals the nomiation. Hillary people can scream and complain all they want -- but unless they are able to make up for the votes of Blacks and the young -- they are DESTROYING THE PARTY RIGHT NOW.

That is just the way it is.

It was a great night for Obama! How about just a few words for him?

A 16% victory in North Carolina and a gap down to 2% in Indiana!

That is amazing!

I think that deserves a few words of congratulations.

As a woman, I was furious with Emily's List for assuming that THEY had to support a woman candidate -- NO MATTER HOW UNSUCCESSFUL SHE MIGHT BE.

As a woman who supports Obama, I am pleased that NARAL has stepped in to try to end this race sooner rather than later. Hillary is really starting to look like a crazy girlfriend who won't leave, with all her shrill threats to "burn down the convention." It is embarrassing to me as a woman...

Hillary's smartest girlfriends need to do an Intervention. Bring in the ice cream or whatever -- and get Hillary to end her campaign on a high note and support the Democratic candidate.

And all the hysterical women supporting her need to get a grip and stop threatening to support the GOP and bring down the "wrath of conservative judges upon the country" just because Obama won.

Freedom of choice means freedom of choice. In everything.

Do you women want to be taken seriously in the political world or not?

Organizations endorse. That is the name of the game.

Some endorsed Hillary and some endorsed Obama. That is how the game is played.

Take your set-backs like adults. Be WOMEN -- not GIRLS, if you want to participate in politics.

My candidate has won...but Hillary supporters keep hanging around like vultures -- hoping and praying that something horrible will happen and their losing candidate will somehow take the nomination away.

Will Obama die? Will Obama turn out to have another scandal? Will Obama make a dreadful mistake? Will Obama trip on a banana peel? Will Obama get struck by lightening? Will Obama turn out to be a vampire? Will Obama be a werewolf? Will Obama...

You guys are insulting our intelligence with bullshit like talking about how Hillary has "won" the popular vote -- as if Caucus States don't exist.

You guys are getting on my last nerve. This is getting sickening. Obey the rules, deal with reality and start having some dignity.
