  • SLEEP Deprived?

    I thought she was working all hours, ready to answer that phone at 3 a.m., no matter what.

    She lied. Period. There is no excuse except to admit it and say, I'm sorry, I wanted to look better than I am. I made something up.

    John McCain is going to win this election if that harridan Hillary doesn't stop this. I don't care if she wants to keep running, but this campaign has GOT to move to a higher level of discourse. For God's sake, will this woman tear the whole Democratic party and the future of our country to shreds for her own ambition?

    Isn't someone in the Democratic party strong enough to speak up?

  • And speaking of "choices"

    Hillary, you DO choose your family. You chose to stand by Bill Clinton. A lot of people in this country thought you should have left him. Although it looks like you have a marriage in name only, a marriage of political convenience, what do we know? Perhaps you truly loved the man, saw past his obvious shortcomings and moral flaws, looked at the bigger picture of your daughter and family, and decided to forgive and see the good in him.

    Which is what I think Barack Obama said about Rev. Wright.

    SHUT UP!

  • Those bombs bursting in midair in Bosnia

    Was bullshit, and this is how she puts an "invisible spin" on it? How can you be more asinine? How can you be more obvious?

  • Stop personal attack on Clinton

    Give me a break. She was asked a question and answered it truthfully. Most would not have stayed with a minister with these views. Let's stop with the personal attacks on Clinton and get to the real issues-economy, health care...

    He made his religion the issue with his speech.

  • Stop the madness

    Let's get some movement going here to get off the pain train...

    Hillary, according to experts at Politico, the Washington Post and many other outlets, has about zero chance of winning the nomination.

    She has, however, an excellent chance and helping John McCain.

    Every dig on Obama brings her and Obama lower, and raises John McCain.

    Is that what you want, folks? Really? Is that the "Democratic process?" Come on! It does not honor the people in Penn, Or, NC or elsewhere to "cast their votes" if, because of the slash and burn policies of the power-mad and money-blind Clinton machine, it's all for naught.

    Right?

    What's the point of voting if it's in atmosphere of acrimony so deep, so pervasive, that it creates an ocean of pain that lifts all boats with RNC on them?

    I am shocked that in this time where the RNC and this administration has so damaged the very infrasctructure of this nation, we are in danger of losing.

    The RNC has driven this nation into the ground... financial policies have tanked the economy, now on a tailspin that we can't even envision the bottom of..

    The RNC has driven this nation into the ground internationally on every level... out honor is trashed, our ability to negotiate has evaporated... our foreign policy is a joke... and yet, we are in danger of losing...

    Because, frankly, her.

    She's got to go. Now.

    Not in three months, after she has taken Obama and the rest of us with her in the gutter of teeth gnashing and nail fighting...

    Now, while we can still heal, while we can still win, while we can still resurect some semblance of order for ourselves and our children.

    Richardson wasn't Judas. He was john the Baptist. He, like Oprah and so many others have pointed to Obama and said... "he is the one."

    He is the one who can bring healing. She is the one who can prevent healing.

    We have to get rid of the lier, the manufactured product that is harming US.

    Hillary's got to go.

    or we will all lose, not just her.

  • @sonofloud

    I can tell you one thing... Jesus wasn't that corn-fed white boy we see all over the place.

    Marxism and Jesus' teachings have a lot more in common then Capitalism.

    Some White churches were the worst defenders of segregation and slavery.

    I'd suggest you read what Mike Huckabee had to see about the Wright's comments.

    Hey, if you were told for half of your life you couldn't vote, and had to drink from another fountain, and sit at the back of the bus, and weren't a real American... you might be a little pissed off too.

  • Don't dig this up, Hillary. I'll take Rev. Wright over the Family any day of the week.

    Wright will never be as anti-democracy, as subversive, and yes, will never hate America half as much as the Family. And who do you choose to associate with?

  • Sad, but true!

    I agree with Hillary. He would not have been my pastor either. How can you justify sitting through sermons, for 20 years no less, and if you disagree with them, stay? It is beyond my experience and comprehension.

    I think he stayed because he wanted to be a part of big and influential church in the area that he lived and worked in. Nothing sinister, it's what politicians do. I'm sure that large congregation helped him out when it was time to go to the polls, too.

    Now, this of course, is not the answer an agent of change can give because it cuts to the heart of why he is running and persona he has purveyed.

    However, that being said, I will still vote for him over the Republican or Green candidate any day because I believe the Dems need to win, period. You will not hear me whining how I will not vote for him because of how he equated the private revelations of a grandmother to those of an ignorant and belligerent pastor, because I realize he is a POLITICIAN, plain and simple.

  • Hillary says she erred on her Bosnia story

    Shoot! She's just errin' all over the place. She's become the Tonya Harding of the Democratic party.

  • The best response from the Obama campaign . . .

    would simply be to send the Clinton campaign some of that toilet paper with Hillary Clinton's face on it. Nothing more needs to be said about the Clintons at this stage.

  • This is a new line

    There no more benefits of the doubts left for HRC. She is now running a Republican campaign. Even MCCAIN has stayed above this. Hell, I think Karl Rove did. HRC is really messing up the Democratic chances in November.
