What Digby Said....To quote Atrios

As Duncan Black would say...
"What Digby Said"

Sheesh... I am troubled by this move to apologize for a rational statement by General Clark. We as Democrats have got to quit falling for the scare tactics of these bloviating blowhards on the right. Until we stop, we will have another election like 2004.

For Senator Clinton Supporters; Keep the Faith

For anyone whose support of Senator Clinton is wobbling, for whatever reason, just read this commentary and watch the video.
Just watch this

I am renewed.



 


The Shame of the "As Far As I Know" meme

I really wonder how many people actually saw Senator Clinton and the now famous "as far as I know" moment on 60 minutes. To be honest, I didnt until today. Like many folks posting on this site, I assumed what I heard was true. But I was shocked when I actually saw it on YouTube.

You can see it here.
Shame on ANYONE who thinks this is anything more than someone hounding Senator Clinton  for an answer they were hoping for. I challenge any Obama supporter to explain this for anything other than what it is. Of course you have to actually view the video first. It takes exactly 1 second for Senator Clinton to say "no, of course not". But that isnt enough for Steve Kroft. The most important thing is to listen to the intonation of Senator Clinton. Just listen. And I challenge anyone to explain your previous scurrilous remarks.

Senator Clinton; I got your back!

Many folks have decided on their vote for today, Super Tuesday, as a chance to make history. And indeed we will. What I am looking for in a candidate is this:

I want a president who will be able to withstand the Right Wing Hate Machine (RWHM).
I want a president will read the memos.
I want a president who is a policy wonk who makes decisions not based on their gut but based on research and close advice.
I want a president who has already made difficult decisions and who can withstand the flak for them
I want a president who understands that hope is great but grasping the reality of politics in America is greater

My candidate is Hillary Clinton. I dont care who the RWHM wants to run, I am going to vote for the most qualified candidate. And Senator Clinton; when the hate machine fires up its engines, dont worry, because I got your back. The American people will have your back. Because we are tired of it and we wont stand by this time.
