Why does a conservative seem to respect the Democratic left more than many Democrats? Plus: Pick Hillary, or don't, but get it over with!

    @New York (again)

    It's interesting to me, NYNY, that actually I agree with you about a lot of things, including:

    a) Al-Quaeda invoking Uncle Tom is hilarious

    b) Obama's victory *is* a victory for immigrants

    c) HRC can only keep her own power base by staying out of the Obama administration

    d) Obama is a tough politician who is more pragmatist than idealist ...

    The difference is I think b, c, and d are good things! Yay victory for immigrants! Yay pragmatism over idealism! Yay Hillary having to chose between serving herself and serving the country! All around Yay!

    And a) is funny not because Al-Quaeda is so perceptive about Obama, but because it shows how effing desperate they are! They know he makes a much weaker Great Satan Poster Boy than McCain or Bush ... or either Clinton for that matter!
