Americans more ready for a black president than a woman?
A new poll says yes -- as if the sexist attacks on Hillary Clinton hadn't already confirmed it.

  • In Oregon, Clinton Makes False Claim About Her Iraq Record Vs. Obama's

    http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/04/in-oregon-clint.html

    Clinton on Saturday told Oregonians, "when Sen. Obama came to the Senate he and I have voted exactly the same except for one vote. And that happens to be the facts. We both voted against early deadlines. I actually starting criticizing the war in Iraq before he did."

    It's an odd way to measure opposition to the war -- comparing who gave the first criticism of the war in Iraq starting in January 2005, ignoring Obama's opposition to the war throughout 2003 and 2004. (And Clinton's vote for it.)

    But even if one were to employ this "Start Counting in January 2005" measurement, Clinton did not criticize the war in Iraq first.

    Clinton is a congenital liar, surrounded by enablers who keep her sick to the core
