  • The Hillary Room

    Maybe the name of the War Room should be changed to the Hillary Room. Today's posts slammed the Republicans, Obama and Edwards:

    >>How will the Republicans bring down Hillary Clinton? <<

    >>Proof positive that Barack Obama isn't qualified to be president: <<

    >> "In some ways, it's the way we have to go. We can't make John black, we can't make him a woman. Those things get you a lot of press, worth a certain amount of fundraising dollars."<<

    I expect a liberal bias, but now the War Room is losing all sense of objectivity and credibility.

  • Painfully Dumb

    What a stupid article. We should all pander to common sense, and realize that there are a lot of white guys who have common sense along with black guys, asian guys hispanic guys and a boat load of women of all types.

    The writer is clearly not color blind. There is a political party that is having a rough go of it lately, they are a bit lost too - maybe they need some help Tom.

    Okay, maybe it wasn't the best thing to be said, but after listening to it, it certainly wasn't the worst. He slipped, and in a way that could be construed as nicely as it could be construed poorly. I am not above calling friends Honey, or Pumpkin, or Sweetheart or anything else, and having friends call me the same things. I don't get offended, I find it personable and endearing. Perhaps the reporter wasn't Obama's friend and his comment was too personable. On the other hand, from Obama's tone it was clear that he was treating her like a friend.

    If we want every politician to say the right thing at every moment of every day someone should finally get off their rear and nominate God. Oh, that's right, God won't run - God is above it all ;-).
