<snip>

Clinton blamed Obama for the negative turn the race has taken in recent days, again linking the change in tone to the Illinois senator's performance in last Wednesday's debate in Philadelphia, as she has done on the stump.

"I think we've run a very positive campaign," she said. "I regret that especially since the debate, Sen. Obama has chosen to go so negative and contrary to what he says in his speeches, his campaign has certainly done that."

She also brought up the search for Osama bin Laden, a figure featured in her closing argument ad called "Kitchen" which launched yesterday and sought to lay out the many challenges facing the next president, especially on matters of national security.

"I believe that the next president will have to have an effective, strong strategy against terrorism," she said. "We're gonna have to end the war in Iraq and try to win the war in Afghanistan and, you know, all these years after 9/11, we still haven't brought to justice the mastermind of the attack that devastated my city and I take that personally. I take it really personally, so this is about my leadership, my resolve, what I intend to do as your president."

[Diamond Dog]

She has no shame.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

10. Clinton hint he's secret muslim, drug dealer, not commander in chief mat, William Ayers, Pastorgate.

What filth won't Hillary stoop to?

"Judgment Day looms for Hillary Clinton the wrecker"

For a month now, Obama has been pummelled by a Democrat in ways I have never witnessed in a primary campaign. Senator Hillary Clinton has directly argued that he is less qualified to be commander-in-chief than the Republican nominee, John McCain. She has said that she doesn’t know for sure that he is not a secret Muslim. She has said his choice of church is unacceptable to her. She has said he deliberately wants many Americans to continue scraping by without health insurance.

Her campaign has insinuated that he was once a drug dealer. Her husband has equated him with the rabble-rousing preacher Jesse Jackson. The Clintons have publicly associated Obama with domestic terrorist William Ayers, with the militant Palestinian group Hamas, and with antisemitic demagogue Louis Farrakhan. And what is remarkable about all this is that most of it was not done by surrogates, but by a former president of the United States against a senator in his own party, and directly by Clinton herself. Every time you think: “Nah, they won’t go there, will they?” – they do.

[yourout]

11. Anyone who has been paying attention knows she is lying her ass off.

Talk about Rovian spin.

[Lucky 13]

12. Childish and stupid

She and her campaign have hurled feces from the gutter for MONTHS. The man DEFENDS himself and they call that "NEGATIVE". UN-FUCKING-REAL. He has had the opportunity to use some NASTY shit against her and has refrained. The fact that she and her supporters won't acknowledge that is delusional.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

13. his choice of church is unacceptable to her n/t

[newmajority]

14. When did she turn into Rudy 9u11ani?

9-11 9-11 Terra Terra Terra

"my city"?? You never fucking set foot in NYC before you carpetbagged your ass there in 2000, Hillary.

Incidentally, WHY did you choose New York, over any of the states that you actually HAD lived in?

Did it have anything to do with that PNAC manifesto which was already published before the 2000 election? Did somebody tip you off to where the event "such as a new Pearl Harbor" would take place??

[sabra]

15. she takes it very "personal"

:puke:

[helderheid]

16. That's rich. n/t

[ihelpu2see]

17. You've got to be kidding, they(Clinton campaign staff) even refer to it as "the kitchen sink" eon

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

18. Clinton jumped in to exploit the attacks by the ABC moderators n/t

[jaysunb]

19. Has Karl Rove replaced Mark Penn ?

What the hell ???????????????????????????/

[Adelante]

21. She's run a positive campaign

If she's Joe McCarthy.

[bowens43]

22. unbelievable hypocrisy.

this woman is a raving lunatic. she has completely lost her mind. No wonder nearly 70% of Americans say she can't be trusted.

[bunnies]

23. terra terra terra! ooga booga. be afraid.

Vote for me or DIE!!!!!! Now where have I heard that before? :shrug:

[futureliveshere]

24. Ha ha ha!! Honestly she is better than the funnies now. This is Hill-arious

[NJmaverick]

25. They believe in the Bush philospy that if you tell a lie often enough

some people will start to believe it

[zulchzulu]

26. I thought she was from Scranton? How many home states does she have?

As for Osama bin Laden, she has actually HELPED him with her vote for the Iraq War. Dumbass...

[liberaldem4ever]

27. How do people defend her when she says things like that

That is an obvious disgusting lie. :grr:

[SeaLyons]

28. Totally agree....

[sabra]

29. can you back it up with links?

"Sen. Obama has chosen to go so negative"

[CakeGrrl]

30. More Clinton lies. SOMEONE show these people the door - quickly. n/t

[dkf]

32. I am so glad I am not a Clinton supporter. I'd feel so embarassed about this.

How cringe worthy is this statement.

I do feel bad for you people...

[GDAEx2]

33. Classic Freudian Projection

n/t

[JBoy]

34. "We still haven't brought to justice the mastermind of the attack that devastated my city"

Yet she thinks it's a good thing to advertise that she's masterminded the complete obliteration of Iran.

[Bonobo]

42. "My city"...Yeah, she's a real New Yawka allright.

:rofl:

[lisa58]

46. I don't know whether to laugh or throw up...

...I'm leaning to the latter

[chemenger]

36. Well, so we now learn that HilLIARy is not just a LIAR, but also

delusional as well. Boy oh boy isn't she the ideal Presidential candidate to follow in the footsteps of the Boy Emperor.

Bleeech ... :puke:

[Blu Dahlia]

37. i'm sure the kitchen sink response had nothing to do with it

:eyes:

What a delusional witch!

[DemGa]

39. "contrary to what he says in his speeches, his campaign has certainly done that.""

Indeed, and it's one of the key reasons for distrust in Obama.

[Diamond Dog]

40. She spins me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Like a record, baby, right 'round 'roud 'round

[mmonk]

41. So ridiculous, no response or retort needed.

[FlaGranny]

43. ROTFLOL

How can she twist things so? Somehow accusing Barack of some far-out dastardly deed is NOT negative, but his response to the accusation is. How did THAT happen? It would be Hillaryous if it weren't so distressing. Hillary, what happened? I used to like you. I used to defend you.

[Window]

44. Hillary has lost her mind.

[Bigleaf]

45. No Wonder over 60% of the American people believe that she is untrustworthy.

[lisa58]

47. That's it...

...she can't even be considered for such an important job.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

48. How many last straws does she have to grasp?

I thought the "obliterate Iran" flag-waving straw would empty the quiver.

I suppose, "A chicken in every pot" is still available.

[newmajority]

49. Maybe the straws are going up her nose?

Certainly would explain why Mark Penn went to Colombia :evilgrin:

[frylock]

50. pure comedy gold..

comedian shillary mcclinton is fuckin cracking me up!!
