- Hillary inappropriately used the word, "assassination." That is not an interpretation, that is a fact.

It is YOUR opinion. It is NOT a "fact". - Reply to this comment
- I guess the media does not want Obama to win. Their frenzy over her latest comments are nonsense.
I am a long time Democrat who was set to run as an Edwards delegate. Clinton and Obama are my third and fourth choice for president. I feel either one is a good choice and will stick with the party.
However, I cannot take the unending Clinton bashing it just has to stop! Remember the Newsweek Cover post election "Angry white male"? If this keeps up you will be seeing angry older white female on the cover after Obama loses if this keeps up.
I make phone calls on behalf of candidates and the Clinton campaign for obvious reasons has alot of older households in the data bank and they volunteer they will not vote for him w/o Clinton. We elect a president based upon the electoral college. The fact that most Ds will not defect is not the issue. It is where the attrition is that matters. He cannot lose PA, OH, FL, and W. VA. You put a Veep on the ticket not b/c you like them but they can deliver something for you. Clinton delivers big time!! - Reply to this comment

You appear to be one of the Republican flunkies carrying out Limbaugh''s directive to wreak havoc in the Democratic primaries. Why don''t you come clean, instead of portraying yourself as a Hillary supporter?
You also appear to demand a higher standard of behavior from Obama than you do of Clinton or McCain.
The facts of Obama''s dealings with Rezko, as reported by the Chicago Sun Times can be found at:

In summary, there were some connections, but they were mostly minor with the exception of the real estate deal. Is that a smirch on Obama''s record? Certainly. But if you''re going to find fault with Obama, ompare that to Hu''s involvement in the Clinton campaign, and Rezko is small potatoes. Not to mention White Water. The Clinton''s involvement may not have been criminal, but it certainly was ethically questionable. McCain isn''t squeaky clean either...and it''s not just the Keating Five involvement. Look at the records of the people he has chosen to run his campaign.
Political ethics may be an oxymoron, but Obama is certainly no worse than the other candidates. And the fact that most of his campaign funding comes from small donors makes him less vulnerable to pressure from larger donors. - Reply to this comment

Gee, rdp, can you really not have noticed that there is a portion of the country that does not want to see HRC as President ? Is it really possible you''ve failed to notice that there is a portion of the country that does not want to see McCain as President ? - Reply to this comment
- It shows how many sick and hateful people there are in this country that HRC''s mere mention of RFK''s assassination, as a historical reference on the length of primary seasons, is immediately taken as proof that she wants to see him dead ! That she is a murderer-in-the-making ! An evil, terrorist hag ! Unfit to live amongst us ! A witch intent on doing Obama in and stealing the job that is rightfully his ! An insane woman who should be confined to an asylum, if not a prison !
Can''t any of you haters stop and think for a moment and see how RIDICULOUS you sound ? This seems to be a moment of MASS HYSTERIA. This is how true evil is done, by mass hysteria such as this.
"Let''s lynch her and smash her to pieces!" "Let''s drive her away so we never have to look upon her again!" "Look! She''s just salivating, waiting for someone to gun him down!" So pathetic. So sad. I''ve lost all faith in my fellow human beings. She said nothing wrong. - Reply to this comment

I had no idea what Obama-supported legislation you were talking about that would commit $800 billion in aid worldwide, so I researched it. What I found was that Rush Limbaugh erroneously reported that figure. The truth, as recounted in Media Matters is:
"In fact, the Global Poverty Act, while noting several Millennium Project goals and declaring that the goal of reducing global poverty by 2015 "is the policy of the United States," does not address the recommendation of spending 0.7 percent of GNP on foreign aid to achieve the Millennium Project goals. According to the Millennium Project website, the 0.7 percent of GNP recommendation "was first made 35 years ago in a General Assembly resolution." The Global Poverty Act directs the president, acting through the secretary of state, to develop a strategy to meet the goal of reducing poverty. It also states that strategy "should include" among its components "[i]mproving the effectiveness of development assistance and making available additional overall United States assistance levels as appropriate," but it does not require that foreign aid be increased or mandate a funding level for foreign assistance. The Global Poverty Act of 2007 was sponsored in the House of Representatives by Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA)."

Please refrain from repeating the bilgewater spewed by right wingnuts like Limbaugh as fact. - Reply to this comment
