Obama trashes the Clintons for pushing for gays in the military and health reform
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 03:00 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
Gays and health care reform ushered in the 94 PUKE congress. Obama is trashing Clinton for it and getting his message across that he won't be stupid enough to take on BOLD issues, he'll roll over and beg PUKES to be nice to him.

"8 years of the Clintons, major losses for Democrats across the nation," reads the mailer, which goes on to list the post-1992 losses suffered by Dems among governors, Senators and members of the House of Representatives. The mailer was forwarded to us by a political operative who told us it was sent to Alaska, though it was probably sent elsewhere, too.

bother to get the link separately, so we're left with a broken one. You're not just a hack, you're a lazy hack.

9. Ok, while I agree that his approach is questionable on those mailers
(and that's putting it mildly) - where does it say anything about health care reform or gays in the military?

14. Did I hear something about this election being about The Future?
1994 was the future ... compared to 1968.
