On this sad fifth anniversary, I can't help wishing she'd been bolder in admitting her mistake in voting to authorize Bush's war.
  • Journalistic Integrity

    It's amazing to me. No matter how you try to phrase your pieces, some of which are thoughtful and well-written indeed, you appear to be unable to mute your clear HRC bias. It's the mark, perhaps, of an ardent political advocate. It's most certainly not the mark of a journalist.

    On the subject of honest and admitting one's past and current biases, why don't you just let the truth set YOU free. Admit it, Joan. You are a staunch supporter of HRC and, at the same time, Obama's success unnerves you. Admit it and you'll be free. And the hypocrisy of pretending to have journalistic integrity will dissolve, just like that.

    As for HRC and Iraq, I can see it now. Forget the tens of thousands of children and women and old people who were sure to be slaughtered. Forget the moral indignity of sending our young troops to their deaths for no coherent reason. It was just HRC and Bill, sitting in bed, discussing which vote would be the most advantageous for her in her maniacal obsession with getting to the White House. It's morally corrupt and sick. Just like HRC's continuing battle despite having lost the pledged delegate war.
