Obama Weathers Wright Storm, Clinton has issues

So says pew research.

So much for Hillary’s crossing the Executive threshold eh?

It’s too much to quote here, best to go read it all, for yourself.

There’s a ton of people on this, check out the coverage.

Going to be an interesting couple of weeks, no doubt.

She's losing, so, she plays the "holier than thou" game

What utter Stupidity!

The Article: Clinton: Wright ‘would not have been my pastor’ (via Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, in a wide-ranging interview today with Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reporters and editors, said she would have left her church if her pastor made the sort of inflammatory remarks Sen. Barack Obama’s former pastor made.

"He would not have been my pastor," Clinton said. "You don’t choose your family, but you choose what church you want to attend."

Oh, So now that she is slipping in the polls, she now is trying to play the "Holier Than Thou" game. Sorry, I am not buying it, You lied about going to Bosnia. You lied and said you went under the sniper fire and that was proven to be a flat out lie.

As far as I am concerned, anyone who lies about her experience, anyone who lies about her trips overseas, anyone who’s attempt to get a national healthcare program, was a abysmal failure. Is not ready to lead on day one. Plain and Simple.

A great article…

Of course, the Hillary people are screaming, "Bias!" But, it is the truth, I think anyway…

Article: The Long Defeat by DAVID BROOKS (via New York Times)

When you step back and think about it, she is amazing. She possesses the audacity of hopelessness.

Why does she go on like this? Does Clinton privately believe that Obama is so incompetent that only she can deliver the policies they both support? Is she simply selfish, and willing to put her party through agony for the sake of her slender chance? Are leading Democrats so narcissistic that they would create bitter stagnation even if they were granted one-party rule?

The better answer is that Clinton’s long rear-guard action is the logical extension of her relentlessly political life.

I hate to say it, but this article really does set it out for Hillary. It speaks truth to power about her.

I just do not understand her at all. She would rather destroy the Democrat Party and cause another 1968 Convention. I know, I wrote some rather mean stuff about her yesterday. I admit it, I cannot stand her. Her husband disgraced the White House, and I haven’t forgotten about it.

Her husband signed off of on a immoral invasion of a "Cultist" Christian commune, based on bad information and as a result, Seventy-six people, including 21 children and two pregnant women, along with their leader died. I haven’t forgotten about this either.

Yes, I know the leader was nutcase, however, that stand off could have ended peacefully. But no, the President stood back idly and allowed the ATF and FBI massacre those people, and their children, and when the fire trucks arrived, the FBI and ATF, refused to allow them in to put the fire out. Instead they allowed them to burn alive. I haven’t forgotten about that.

I also happen to know that, Hillary Clinton AND Bill Clinton, ruined the life of a well known financier, who came to rescue of Stan Lee, when marvel comics fired him. Bill Clinton turned right around and stole the very person, who could have saved Stan’s career. If that wasn’t enough, Bill Clinton pulled strings and basically ruined a man’s life. That man was Peter F. Paul.  I haven’t forgotten about this either.

I could go on and on, but I’d rather not waste my bandwidth and my writing talent on this feckless woman. She’s truly not worth it.

"Misspoke" my royal behind….

 I am really beginning to believe that this lying thing is quite common among Democrats.

Article: Clinton Misspoke About Bosnia Trip, Campaign Says (via The Caucus, A New York Times Blog)

The Clinton campaign says Senator Hillary Clinton may have “misspoke” recently when she said she had to evade sniper fire when she was visiting Bosnia in 1996 as first lady.

She has been using the episode as an example of her foreign policy bona fides.

“I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia,” she said last week. “There was a saying around the White House that if a place was too small, too poor, or too dangerous, the president couldn’t go, so send the First Lady.

“I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.”

(snip!)

But her account has been challenged, first by Sinbad, the comedian, who traveled with her, and then by news organizations, most notably the Washington Post, which awarded her four “Pinnochios” which it gives for major “whoppers.

(snip!)

Helene Cooper, The Times’s diplomatic correspondent, reports the following:

I spoke with William Nash, who was the commander of U.S. troops in Bosnia and was at the Tuzla airport with Hillary Clinton. He said there was no threat of sniper fire at the airport during her visit. He said that Mrs. Clinton was gracious during her visit and took pictures with the soldiers, but “she never had her head down. There was no sniper threat that I know of.”

and now for the damning video:

This is, as far as I am concerned, nothing short of a boldfaced lie. As an independent voter, I have lost any and all respect, which was not much to begin with. I do not see this as an isolated incident. I see this as a pattern amongst Democrats. First it was Bill Clinton, during his time in the White House, then it was Elliot Spitzer, and Mayor Kilpatrick of Detroit. 

Is this all the Democrats are good for? Lying their way through life? Whatever happened to just telling the goddamned truth? Whatever happened to honesty in Politics? Whatever happened to Integrity in Politics? It seems to be that it has been replaced by cheap thug bastards, who would rather lie their way through the White House and collect a paycheck to do a job, that they really did not deserve to obtain. Which is about what one could say about Hillary Clinton. Truth is, that this lying feckless bitch was only elected, because the people of New York felt sorry for her and she used her mantra of "feel sorry for me, because my husband fucked around on me." to get elected. I am personally sick and tired of seeing this goddamned closet lesbian tearing the Democrat party apart. I really wish that she’d drop out of the Presidential race and just go away and preferable die of aids or something.

Sorry if that sounds harsh, but fucking aye already!!! Enough is enough, from racism, to fear mongering and now just fucking out right lying out her goddamned ass to make herself look good. Does this feckless bitch have any fucking shame at all?

Can you tell I am just a fucking wee bit annoyed?!?!?

Maybe I will get lucky and the blogging world will see this and Keith Olbermann will name me worst person in the world, as if I’d give a remote fuck about what asshole commie closet fag would think.

Michigan Political Leaders React to the Mayor's legal troubles

Update:

kilpatrickbeattyphoto The Booking Photo…. Aren’t they such a sweet couple? SickWinkingTongue

VIA WXYZ-TV:

 

State leaders ranging from U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow to Gov. Granholm Granholm are weighing in on the charges filed against Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his former chief of staff.

REP. CANDICE MILLER

"I listened closely to the statement by Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy and today everyone was put on notice that no one is above the law." – Rep. Candice Miller, a Republican from Macomb County’s Harrison Township

L. BROOKS PATTERSON

"What we are witnessing is the 21st-century rerun of a classic Greek tragedy: fallen heroes, lost opportunities, unfulfilled promise." – L. Brooks Patterson, Republican Oakland County executive

GOV. GRANHOLM

"As the former attorney general and a former federal prosecutor, the governor realizes as well as anyone that it’s important the legal process be allowed to work." – Liz Boyd, spokeswoman for Gov. Jennifer Granholm, a fellow Democrat

SEN. DEBBIE STABENOW

"This is very disturbing and I hope that it is resolved as soon as possible." – U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich.

Additionally, The Governor of Michigan, said she will NOT remove the Mayor of Detroit, unless he in convicted of these charges. I guess Party loyalty goes a long way. Plus, she is possibly worried, that she could be perceived as a white woman, persecuting a black man. Identity Politics? You decide.
