Go Home I Can't Believe It's Not Bitter

THE PLANK APRIL 14, 2008

I Can't Believe It's Not Bitter

The Wall Street Journal, reporting on the Bittergate fallout:

Bitterness between the two campaigns rose to a new level, and the attacks highlighted vulnerabilities Sen. McCain could exploit this fall.

Bitter? They're not bitter, they're proud! How long until the Obama and Clinton campaigns demand a joint apology?

Would someone please wake me when there's something worth talking about going on?  Until then, I think I'm going to spend an indefinite amount of time playing "Scrabulous" on Facebook.

Enough already!  Both of HRC and BO are humans.  Are they perfect?  Neither of them are.  Both are flawed but both are HUMAN for crying out loud.  Either of them are preferable to McB.

You'd never know that watching what disgustingly passes as the MSM.  All it is with them is 'gotcha'.  Again, enough already.  No wonder our government cannot work, we don't want it to.

tumats... no they are not both better than McB.  Hillary is but a Chaney clone.  There is no need to vote for her at all.  She plays by the Rovian playbook which in my mind has destroyed serious political discourse in this country.

The Republicans got us into this mess.  Let them try to get us out, if it means more of the same with Hillary.

BUT this is all nonsense.  She can't win.  But she will break the toy if she doesn't get it so she can run again in 2012.  Except there are those of us who can neither forgive nor will forget.  This is not misspeaking.  It is purposefully polluting the political discourse, poisoning the public wells, taking Obama's strengths and trying to twist them into weaknesses with lies, distortions, goading people on to feel as if they have been insulted so that they won't think.  I cannot get over just how enraged THAT WOMAN is making me feel.  Because she pretends to be what she is not.  She is a Bush clone, a Chaney clone, a Rove clone.  And lots and lots of us don't want it anymore!
