Tonight, we reclaim our dream. |
|
We're going to make the rules of American life work fairly for all Americans again. To an Administration that would have us debate all over again whether the Voting Rights Act should be renewed and whether segregated schools should be tax exempt, we say, Mr. President: Those debates are over. On the issue of civil rights, voting rights, and affirmative action for minorities, we must not go backwards. We must -- and we will -- move forward to open the doors of opportunity.
To those who understand that our country cannot prosper unless we draw on the talents of all Americans, we say: We will pass the Equal Rights Amendment.
No Obama did not give this in a speech.
Maybe you who would burn this woman at the stake would pause just a moment or two and realize how awful we have become.

3. If this is a Clinton speech |
|
then it doesn't matter - I don't believe anything she says, nor do I believe that she believes anything she says, nor do I believe she gives a **** about anything or anyone but herself, personal power and wealth.

10. This is a waste of time. |
|
Are you f'ing kidding me?
That is a generic speech supporting issues that even the most conservative Democrats support.
You're proving nothing and wasting our time.
Show me something she said about not giving the telecoms immunity and getting the troops home from Iraq and preventing her husband from passing NAFTA and ugh. Anything.
