Tweety -- the same man who decribed someone as "Satan" is jumping on Hillary for uing the word Plantation?
This ganging up by journalists on Hillary for using the word "plantation" is especially ironic since the so-called journalists are more responsible than anyone for the debasemenet of language and discourse.
"bashing......"flap"........"Blame Game"......These are all idiotic substitutes for real and more neutral words like "criticizing"...."controversy"....and "dispute."
To use some colorful language myself, Fuk them.

Tweety is already setting himself up to kiss Hillarys ass during the primaries and beyond.

his feeble attempts at moral outrage and get back to what he does best....promote books written by fellow NBCers and regurgitate Rove`s talking points. By next year, I expect his MSNBC set to include a bank of American flags and a framed certificate proving his successful mastery of Karen Hughes` Patriotism 101.

These people are not journalists they are bushviks. There job is to attack a Dem (any Dem) any time a Dem opens their mouth. If Hillary (or any Dem) was speaking, and said "Hail to King Bush" 52 times, these "journalists" would attack them for not hailing him 53 times. It is their job. It is what they are paid to do.

6. If the audience she used it on IN HARLEM seemed to agree |
|
This should be a wake-up call for the GOP, not time to counter-attack.

7. Yes, if an audience of Afican Americans didn;t boo her... |
|
...then it is hardly a controversy among those most directly affected.
It's only controversial because the GOP decided to make it so.

8. Those substitutions... its all an effort to make the Republicans |
|
the Majority party, who also happen to have the White House and Supreme Court, look like victims and seem persecuted and attacked.
"Democrats today bashed President Bush..."
"While seniors are being denied their medications, why are Democrats playing the blame game..."

|
