It’s so uplifting to see the master Oxford parser preaching to everyone who will still listen about imaginary distinctions between the Clintons and Obama. For a person who still has trouble with the definition of the word IS it is refreshing to see his surrogates out there criticizing Obama for admitted drug use. Too bad Barack didn’t have the good sense Bill showed when he didn’t Inhale! Talk about a generation gap, at least Barack’s generation seems to have a bit more candor and honesty about themselves than Bill’s does. And before you Boomer Defenders jump on this, congratulations to all us Boomer parents who may have actually taught our kids something about honesty and integrity, now we have a chance to show some too.
Honestly folks when HRC repeats the canard that she is experienced and ready to take command from day one does the thought never cross your mind that what she’s ready to do is go to K Street with Rham Emmanuel and remind the lobbyists where to mail the checks when Bush is gone? Has the colossal failure of the Dem leadership since January 2007 in effecting any change in Washington not registered with you? Do you not recall the eight prior years of Clinton and the DLC in power?
Please, the only thing these folks are good at is political manipulation, the most recent example being the Nevada Democratic debate. Like a tag team wrestling match the Clintons through their surrogates like Robert Johnson and Charles Rangel and Andrew Coumo threw all the dirt they could muster to save their sorry butts in New Hampshire and Nevada and then she goes into the debate like a choir girl with the halo shining over her head and plays nice?
Everyone on this site is often repeating the concept that the definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. Well, look back on the lack of achievement of any progressive agenda during the first Clinton regency and tell me why you expect different now? By the way, Bill just announced recently that he thinks marijuana should be decriminalized. Funny he never thought to propose that when he had the bully pulpit, another example of honesty and integrity.
So fellow Boomers keep on deluding yourself about HRC and take great joy in electing the first woman president; I hope you’ll be satisfied with that while our children go on to their mid-lives with no healthcare while she continues to flush our taxes down the sinkhole of Iraq. Bravo!
