Loved the Movie
[Read the article: "Sex and the City"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]However, I really hated all the fur wearing. Did VOGUE and Anna
Wintour finance this thing? And why did the director have to
include the scene at the end with the two women throwing
red paint on Samantha's coat? They were made to look like
two harpies. It's as if the beautiful people who don't give
a damn where their goodies come from are allowed any
legitimacy. Animals have to suffer a lot so bitches can strut
about trying to impress those less fortunate. So of course
Wintour must have had a hand in this.
Also, Chris Noth is not such a good actor. He always seemed
to be looking beyond Carrie, with poor eye contact.
But I did like it overall and the theater audience was fun and
very engaged.
Charlotte is just the best ever.

[Read the article: Clinton suspends campaign, endorses Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]i respectfully disagree with you regarding Obama.
My problems with him are that he DOES appeal to
wealthy, snobbish Democrats. He also projects an
attitude of moral superiority and self righteousness
which I find totally bogus. Have you not seen the clips
of his friends at Trinity Church? Do you know how he
got started in Chicago politics? For that matter, have you
ever seen him without his nose stuck up in the air?
Read this article by Matt Gonzalez and then tell me
if you think he's not connected to corporate America
http://www.counerpunch.org/gonzalez02292008.html
If he is supposed to be so inspiring why were his supporters
in the media and in the blogosphere so appallingly vicious?
Even now, if you do not "get" Obama you get insulted.
Nothing McCain ever said about Hillary comes close to the
nastiness of Obama's supporters.
As far as I am concerned, Hillary does not owe Obama, nor
his supporters, anything. It is to her credit that she will
be a "good soldier" and campaign for him.
And yes, Obama ran a brilliant, cunning campaign. He
gamed the system perfectly. So did GWBush in 2000 and
2004.

[Read the article: Clinton suspends campaign, endorses Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Please don't accuse me of dishonesty because you don't like
what I said. Perhaps I should have said "worked" the system
rather than "gamed" the system. At any rate, Obama definitely
understood it better than Hillary, alas. I think it was the caucuses
more than anything else that did her in.
I emphasize that Obama gets the SNOB voters, hands down.
Well to do or otherwise. And a lot more poor (only moneywise,
NOT poor in spirit) 'regular" folks voted for HRC. I pay my
rent by doing housecleaning, and I sent HRC over $300. Got
the credit card bills to prove it.
DeloresFlower, do you think you are "morally superior" as most
Obama folks seem to? Are YOU honest?
Obama is no populist. He gets plenty of loot from corporate
fat cats, they all do.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]I do not think you are one of the snobs who favor Obama.
I appreciate your post and hear what you say.
However, i do not think Obama is any more committed to the
poor than HRC. I think his community organizing consisted of
signing up voters for the Chicago Democratic political machine.
By the way, what community did he organize in? Was it any
better for his having been there?
I also do not believe the majority of his donors are those who
"nickeled and dimed" A major part of his demographic are the well
off democrats. As far as his corporate backers, I'm not sure which
candidate got more, but I bet there's not that much difference
between them.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am not defending McCain but I also do not think he is the
King of Sleeze - at least not yet. What do you think he has done
that's sleezy?
McCain condoned a "bitch" remark, or at least didn't denounce
it when a supporter made that reference to Hillary.
That pales in comparison to what Obama's supporters
in the media and on line have said. O's ardent supporters
say that there is no difference between them and him
("we are one with Obama") I think they are expressing his
inner nastiness that he hides behind that wide grin of
his. I know that's esoteric but that's all I can figure,
or maybe it's because a lot of the more unpleasant
ones are immature...like Obama.

[Read the article: Going down with the Titanic?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]You rock, Girlfriend! I stopped watching MSNBC on Feb 5, 1st
Super Tuesday. Hillary won a lot of primaries that night yet
they stayed on Barack (worship ME or else!)Obama. Chris Matthews
has always valued style over substance-he went on and on about
Bush when he pulled the "Mission Accomplished" stunt. Kept
saying "America wants a GUY President!"
Keep the Faith!

[Read the article: Going down with the Titanic?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]As Hillary was giving her concession speech I was filling out my
voter registration form to switch from Dem to GREEN PARTY. I
will not be associated with any organization that has Obama as
its leader.
As soon as she finished I straightaway posted that form. I am
so disgusted with the Dems, what have they done?
I feel it is a much better fit for me with the Greens. The environment
is my issue, after all. And McKinney is so OUT THERE! I had
reservations about her because of what I read in the MSM but
I did my research and she seems right on target.
Many Blessings and OM TARA!

Why O voted yes
[Read the article: Why progressives should keep organizing on MyBarackObama.com ]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I think Obama voted yes on the FISA bill because he expects to be
President and wants all power unto himself.
Obama is all about finding loopholes and ways around things. And
he can sure do it. Very cunning man.
Anybody who thinks he will protect the Constitution if he does
attain the oval office is in for a big surprise.
