Hillary whiners never stop ..
[Read the article: How 1968 changed Hillary]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Joan gives you two straight days of Hillary apologists' fantasy tomes - one for why she should be the nominee and the second this fairy tale, much of which seems to rely on Hillary's memories (we all know how credible those are!) and you whine about the "last few paragraphs." Then the next article you will whine about how the press fawns over Obama and how unrealsitic and cultish the Obama supporters are. Anyone who thinks a cult of whiny witches like Hill and her bots like Joan Walsh and some of these posters could make this country better needs a reality check.

Editor's choice is a hillbot post ... what a shock
[Read the article: No, Hillary Clinton shouldn't be winning]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This lame attempt to "balance the scales" by posting this article is another example of the joke Salon has become. If you need any further proof of the yellow journalism being practiced by Joan Walsh and Salon, just look at what is deemed worthy of an editor's choice letter: a name-calling anti-Obama screed from one well-known for such postings. I've stopped reading Joke Walsh, I guess all of Salon is next.

So Hillary's lie WAS critical - and ignored by Salon
[Read the article: Poll trajectory points to trouble for Clinton campaign]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I see from the headline that Joke Walsh is writing about "bitter-gate" again as Salon is "all over" that non-story just as they were the Wright saga (I've stopped reading her - she seems ala Rush and Bill to equate flash with substance). But it was Walsh who went on CNN and said Salon was "all over" the Bosnia lie (not a 'misstatement' as Salon writers are apparently order to call it) when in fact they did virtually nothing when it was front page every place else. Walsh even said on TV that the Bosnia lie was no big deal - now it seems that in fact Wright and bitter are no big deals - but Hillary's Bosnia lie turned out to be the final blow. Walsh's yellow journalism in support of Hillary these last couple of months has forever tarred Salon. The Clinton campaign isn't the only sinking ship. So is Salon's credibility - thanks to Walsh.

"should be a big issue" - Hah!
[Read the article: It goes well beyond the Keating Five]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Yes it should but anyone who thinks it will be a big issue hasn't been paying attention. At least two Republican senators, along with many others, have questioned McCain's mental stability and fear what would happen if he were president. Is any of this being reported in the national media in a serious way? No. In fact, Mr. man-crush himself, Chris Matthews, said last night "so what" if McCain has a temper? Lots of politicians do. That comment, pretty sums up what will be the MSM's approach to the very real question of does the nation want to go from an incompetent ignorant president to one with one finger on the button and a slipping hold on his emotions.

Salon "all over" Wright redux just like bosnia ... oops
[Read the article: What should Obama do about Rev. Jeremiah Wright?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Joke Walsh said on CNN that Salon was "all over" the Bosnia story ... One of many of her LIES. A search finds two briefs. Now do a search on Wright. Now that's being all over. Joke Walsh doesn't want posters who call women the C word on here .. then don't act like a cunt Joke by these transparent "concern" stories or your posts that serve only to bring a story hurtful to Obama up over and over and over ala fox. You're so proud of your hits - Fox is proud of their ratings but at what cost to journalism? You obviously don't care; you are like some idiot who smiles a lot when they think they are fooling people. You're not. And that other bastion of yellow journalism, Koppleman, is back. So like many others I will stop reading your posts and most everything on Salon, except to stop by and do some name-calling because you deserve the same kind of treatment you have given to your readers. In the very appropriate words of CM Neill, FUCK YOU salon.

Joke Walsh strikes again
[Read the article: The Brazile-Begala smackdown]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]On the night when Hillary's campaign received its coup de grace, Joke choose to write about this. I have to believe there are staffers at Salon who are embarrassed by their "editor." What an idiot.

Hill's quote and Salon'Double standard
[Read the article: "There's a pattern emerging here"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]HRC: "found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again,"
If anyone else made that kind of comment equating white people and hard-working, Joke Walsh would have Salon's writers all over it. But Salon obviously doesn't hold Hillary up to the same standards as others. Also, I wouldn't expect Koppelman to point this out, but Obama's numbers among whites in Indiana were roughly the same as Bill Clinton got in the general election. And he won twice as I remember.

We did see the real Hillary
[Read the article: What did Clinton do wrong?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"but by all reports she's got charisma and warmth to spare."
Yeah, unless you cross them the Clintons are very charismatic. Then you get to see their reptilian side. That side, which isn't covered in the biased Salon pages, is why so many former supporters from those who served in the WH during the 90s to Senate colleagues to big money backers like Geffen not only supported others for Prez but desperately didn't want to see four more years of these two power-obsessed, amoral, narcissists in the WH. Clinton didn't do anything wrong - the Bosnia lie, poor management style, throwing people under the bus, pandering - are all part of who she is. Americans saw it and chose a much better candidate and human being.
