Hillary...And the Horse.

Ok, I can't take it anymore.  Clinton picked Eight Bell to win, place,
and show at the Kentucky Derby.  The horse came in second, broke it's
ankles after the finish line, and had to be put down.

Now, 
people are drawing comparisons to Hillary and the now euthenized
filly.  People are making some comments that, some, might find
offensive and/or inappropriate.  I, for one, don't.  I am more outraged
in the fact that people are more upset about this dead horse than about
the comment that Hillary recently made about obliterating Iran. 
Do
you understand what I  am saying?  Hillary said,  "In the next 10
years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack
on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them."  WHAT!?  Then she follows up with this, "That's a terrible thing to say but those people who

run Iran need to understand that because that perhaps will deter them

from doing something that would be reckless, foolish and tragic."  Wow.  She's basically talking about murder...and genocide.

Say
what you will about the government of Iran, and it's religious
fanatics, but talking about killing innocent people...many who love the
U.S.A..  Who don't agree with their elected officials.  Many who want
peace just as much as we do.  And you have become no better than those
we are trying to defeat.  She wants to obliterate them, their way of
life, their culture, their hopes and dreams.  Kill the many for the
dislike of a few?

So you see, I don't give a SHIT about a horse that lived the high life and probably got treated better than me.  But I do give a shit about my fellow human being. 

So,
say what you want about that horse and its outcome.  I for one know
that whatever you say, it can't be as horrendous and despicable as what
Hillary recently said  about Iran. 

Let's put things into perspective.  I recommend that you read my other post about Bill Moyer.  It will help.

Could we please stop beating the dead horse?

If you can't take it anymore, why are you re-posting the same diary you posted this morning? Give it a rest!

Because Opus, I was waiting for you to reply...cheeky.

Maybe Bill Moyers will interview the jockey. Maybe he can do another thing to help Hillary.
