In Hillary Clinton's Defense!
[Read the article: Pulling out the big guns]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]While Obama was visiting that poor school in SC that rattled next to the rail road tracks built in the 1800’s, and is in such disarray...Where was his friend Oprah that spent $40 MILLION in Africa FOR ONE SCHOOL?
Why are Obama and Oprah depending on the youth vote when Oprah clearly stated "the reason I don't help the American kids is because they already have too much. The only things they are interested in are sneakers and i-pods, and they don‘t appreciate anything!"
Obama is also so quick to blame Hillary for not having correct judgment. How about Oprahs judgment about James Frye? Nobody is perfect, and Obama and Oprah should really knock off their holier than thou, I can do everything better attitude.
I get really sick and tired of Obama playing holier than thou when it comes to the Iraq War and the idiots and the bias media that goes right along with it.
We ALL have to remember that we went to Iraq under the pretenses that Saddam Hussein had WMD's. Yes, now we ALL know it was based on lies; however, if those lies were able to have been disproved before the last 6-12 months, then where were the bias media and Obama trying to stop Bush? We went there to get Saddam and we got him, remember "Mission Accomplished?' It is BUSH's FAULT we have remained there for an additional 5 years, NOT Hillary Clinton's vote authorizing the war.
She took a stand for what she had every right to believe was the solid truth. I am relieved that we got rid of Saddam Hussein though, as I am sure everyone is. We would not have if we took Obama's position, or lack thereof regarding the Iraq war. It is real easy to take a stance on something after the fact when you were not there. How can he be so sure what he would do? He also has not said what made him come to that judgment! What set of facts told him that the war was wrong? And if he had solid evidence that the war was wrong, why didn't he provide proof along with his "famous 2004 speech" and stop the war with whatever means necessary. It doesn't look like he has a hard time getting the medias attention! They would have listened, right? (Rolling eyes) He is an arrogant, holier than thou, I can do everything better, liar!
I can hear John McCain now in the General Election IF it is Obama… "Obama over here is so liberal on war, he says he would have voted against it, and Obama says it was a mistake….Well, I don't think it is a mistake my friends, we got rid of one of the biggest dictators, Saddam Hussein! We are facing a national terror threat and threats from Islamic Jihad's, and Obama's liberal attitude on war is not going to keep us safe! I am a war hero, and I would like Obama to tell the soldiers and their families that are sacrificing that they made a mistake….I don't think so my friend."
Oh no! I think I just wrote McCain's speech! We ALL know this is how he talks! Obama WILL NOT win the election for the Democrats against the Republicans…Mark my words! Kerry was less liberal and it cost us the last election.
I am not pro-war, but I am not against it IF it is necessary. Obama is so liberal about it he also scares me on the opposite spectrum that Bush does. Hillary is right in the center where all of us want to be and should want to be! That is uniting!
Also we as a country do not need inspiration, we need our country FIXED. We have all been inspired on ending the war and impeaching Bush and Cheney, but obviously you cannot "change" anything WITHOUT Congress! Does Obama think he is going to change Washington with "hope" and "inspiration?" What a joke!

MoveOn.org Endorsement will sink Obama against the Republicans!
[Read the article: MoveOn endorses Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"First
Woo-hoo! I voted for Obama in the Move On poll yesterday.
I don't know what this means, other than that younger, more internet inclined voters favor Obama (I'm 48, a youngish baby-boomer, right on the line between generations). HRC seems to own the Social Security crowd. We shall see...
-- Ray Sharp"
I suppose you think you are of the "educated and elite" crowd also, right? I need to correct you, I am 31 year old, college educated person also, and I am voting for Hillary. Hardly the "Social Security Crowd" I also voted for Bill Clinton when I was 20 years old. (Couldn't the first time because I was 16, had to wait four more years). Bill Clinton inspired me to get involved and I have done so ever since. Obama is nothing new my friend. "Change" is not Obama's big idea. Everyone wants change. Obama followers say "we need change!" Well that is real observant! It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. It is "Bush Fatigue" that is making everyone desperate for change.
(rolling eyes and laughing out loud)..."younger, more internet inclined"....WTF EVER! Get over your stupid self!
Oh yeah, and BTW...Hillary Clinton is so inspiring that my 19 year old cousin who is voting for the first time is voting for Hillary Clinton! What a smart and involved young man! It must run in the family!
