If you all (Obama/Clinton) want to go for each other's throats, go ahead.
But at least make your arguments and accusations relevant and base it on reality, not fiction.

12. yeah...
you're right, they both wanted to make sure the Military had the money it needed for equipment.

I'm glad they cared about the Military that was in a war that should never have been waged.

13. If I had known about Obama's
speech in Oct 2002 talking about why we shouldn't go into Iraq..I would have supported him sooner. I actually discovered it through DU..

14. Reality:
Edited on Sat Mar-22-08 02:16 PM by LWolf
"Obama did not support the Iraq War" is based on a speech. His record in Congress shows him supporting the war by repeatedly voting to fund it, until he wanted to campaign on "being against the war from the beginning."

Edited to add: the walk doesn't fit the talk in this case.

4. Remember when "March Madness" only referred to basketball?
Now it is a perfect description for the way we are treating each other and both Democratic candidates.
