What is up with all of this "shrill" business? |
|
I was out volunteering all day, can anyone catch me up to speed?
This entire board has exploded and I can't make heads or tails of anything.
Much appreciated.
P.S. I took a great video of Kal Penn and Margaret Cho speaking to Philly-area students about supporting Barack. Kal Penn in particular has been working his ass off for Obama and has an amazing perspective. I'll try to get the video up soon for y'all to experience!

1. Hillary said some, uh, Un Presidential things at an Ohio rally |
|
this afternoon. I leave to you to find one of the half dozen video links in the political videos forum.
And you can draw your own conclusions.
Shrill is not a word that I would use to describe it. Angry, yes, Odd, yes, Un Presidential, YES. But not shrill.

2. Sorry, I saw the word "shrill" in about 10 thread titles here. |
|
I'll search out those videos now that I know what I'm looking for.
Thanks! :hi:

7. Lol! My thoughts exactly! |
|
They look shocked, I tell you, SHOCKED!
Every time I think that her campaign can't sink any lower, they find new ways to disappoint me.
:thumbsdown:

I'll hopefully get it up soon, but I'll probably have to make it protected for a while. We had a really open and honest discussion about many topics including some that have been *touchy* around here. Some of the official campaign people spoke to one issue in particular, so I want to clear making the video public with them, considering they're on camera and all.
But I'll be sure to PM you so you can see it! :hi:

10. In the video she makes it appear that she is at a rally event |
|
trying to whip up the crowd.
I think she even says "Somebody just gave me these two fliers..." like she was at a meet and greet and just accidentally saw these for the first time... and she is outraged at the Obama campaign.
But from this photo, it's all for the press, hell, the press is all that is there. No crowds, just reporters. Absolutely no reason to be "outraged"... in fact, I suspect she knew about those fliers for some time now.
Staged? I tend to believe it is likely.
