1. Ehrm...link, please?
Although I'm so tired of the O camp by now that I see them as so anti-Hillary as the right wing is - no diff, only worse - since they're supposed to be Dems.

4. More balanced than the majority of them...but,
this

"I'm not supporting Hillary Clinton this year (unless she's nominated, God forbid). I don't care for her style of politics. When she equated the stunningly mild criticism she's gotten from the Obama campaign to the blood vendetta Ken Starr masterminded against her, it came painfully clear that she still carries scars from all the wars unleashed on her family by the most hateful elements of our society."

God forbid? :eyes:

She still carries scars? Implies they think she is damaged goods

5. Thanks. What the piece totally and conveniently fails to mention...
Edited on Sat Mar-08-08 03:38 PM by libbygurl
...is that MO's race gives a lot of people pause when critiquing her. When they do criticise her, watch out for prompt complaints of 'racism' come out from the BO camp. Just like they did in SC.

The poster's argument that HRC took all the slings and arrows to pave the way for women to be immune to criticism today totally goes out the window when one simply looks at how misogynistic the attacks on Hillary continue to be. Sexism is still A-OK; anything that can be construed, no matter how remotely, as racism is to be avoided.

HRC is STILL at the receiving end of those blatantly and subtly sexist remarks - so nothing has changed for her. Sorry, not buying it.

Ed. for clarification.

6. OK. No argument about the sexism (or racism) work yet to be done.
I just thought that particular poster was able to use a wider lens, so to speak. His responses in the thread have been consistent with his post, too.

But, gotta admit, I'm what that damned Limbaugh calls an "incrementalist."
LOL :hi:

7. You are a much nicer person than I! Hillary should be glad to have you on her side!
...what Limbaugh says bedamned!

:hi:
