Depressing
The irrational anti-Hill vitriol I read here is just mid-boggling and depressing. However my Christianity (or as Obama would see it my irrational emotional crutch) forces me to love the sinners and hate the sin.
Can you guys in an occasional moment of clarity not see what is happening? You have been made 'Trilbys' to Obama's Svengali.

4. Is it now a sin to be against HIllary? This is really digging deep into right wing territory.

Seriously, even in jest.

17. How many here celebrated her being called that, but "boy" by Geoff Davis was NOT to be tolerated.
Have you written to Mitch, yet?

Back at the dinner, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton didn’t escape the men’s attention either. While saying her candidacy seemed to be teetering on the brink, he added “I hear she hasn’t been this worried since a new Hooters opened” near her home with former President Bill Clinton.

Everybody laughed, according to Ryan Alessi, political reporter for the Herald-Leader.

We gotta be on the same team, right?

19. We do.

The sexist shit has always pissed me off. And, seeing sexism re-enforced persistently has been the one thing that will allow me to "fall in love" with Hillary overnight, should she be the Nominee. And I mean that.

on edit: I am emailing Mitch.

8. I think you have misplaced the cause of your depression.
Edited on Mon Apr-14-08 10:04 PM by Madam Mossfern
The anti- Hillary 'vitriol' is not irrational. You need to take your blinders off, she is giving the Republicans all of their talking points, they are saving so much money and resources on research, when her people are doing that for them. Obama doesn't distain your Christianity, he shares it...but you knew that.

Bullshit. The guy has given them all the ammunition they need walking from one disaster to another - Rezgogate, plagiarismgate, Wrightgate, bittergate...
If the Rev Wright is his idea of Christianity then no thanks.
The Obamite campaign of invective against Hillary Clinton has been absolutely appalling - there is no rock to low to crawl under, no sewer to putrid to explore.
At all times she has maintained a fierce integrity clearly undimmed by the slime that has been flung in her direction.
She has waged a lonely battle of astounding moral courage against the grim trifecta of Freeperism, Obamaism, and an extraordinarily biased MSM. Sort of like Will Kane in High Noon.
I have spent night after night grinding my teeth on reading the envenomed obloquys from people who are not fit to lick the mud from her shoes.
Sigh... I am beginning to think there is no point in arguing against the great brainwashed.

11. Is it a sin to disagree with Hillary?
Obama is a Christian too, you know.

There is irrational anti-Dem vitriol. It is not jut aimed towards Hillary. A lot of perspective has been lost, and there is no way to assign blame. The blame is as much on the media as anything.

13. Your candidate is destroying the Democratic party.... Randi Rhodes was right.... she's a fucking..
whore.


She cannot win the general election now, even if she stole the nomination.

You can see that, right?


RIGHT?



But that's the plan.... 2012 or bust.

20. I'm banking that you'd rather see Obama lose if you knew Hillary would be President 100%, in '12?
We've got problems now - and Clinton is the kid on the outside of the room, looking in on the glass where the action is taking place. She's actually screwing up more than Obama is! I wanted Edwards, but my goodness, between Obama and Hillary - GOBAMA! The mass corruption that ended her husband's tenure in the white house stinks up the place still.

I thought differently when he left, but after we hear about all the lobbyists getting into the Lincoln bedroom, and his continuing dealing with them, I don't want the Clinton family anywhere NEAR the white house again! It has nothing to do with his inability to respect his vows with his wife - it's about being a poor family to put in there. We've got major problems that Jr B*sh has caused, and they need heavily corrected - and I don't trust the family that gave us NAFTA and welfare reform, and Don't Ask Don't Tell, to do the right thing in the white house...

Out of my 3 choices, it's gotta be Obama.

32. You're absolutely right
Minimal profile, flamebait post and low post count.

I'm sure that the OP is someone's sock that's gone missing.

33. The epitome of intellectual dishonesty is putting words in other people's mouths.
Nowhere and at no time has Mr. Obama referred to religion as an "irrational emotional crutch."

Your accusations are disgusting. Shame on you and your ilk.

That is an accurate deconstruction of his remarks. Face the truth, however distasteful you may find it.
