In what many in the GOP came to view as the 11th Commandment, Ronald Reagan famously said," Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican." Hillary Clinton, it would now appear, is taking his advice to heart. Not content to merely lambast the supposed inexperience of Barack Obama, Clinton's scorched-earth campaign has lavished praise on John McCain as the embodiment of a commander-in-chief. Desperate to resurrect her once-fading candidacy, it is Hillary Clinton who has sadly emerged as the embodiment of Reagan's Law.

For the details, see:

God, I hate these rich asshats. They are worthless and a drag on society. Blaming the poor is how they hide the fact that they are ones who take all the money. There must be some way to force them to be productive members of society. Maybe a program like the CCC to put them to work repairing the infrastructure. The only time they are allowed to tell other people what to do is around the campfire after a 12 hour day of making little ones out of big ones.

Or maybe just a revolution. Who's up for storming the AIE?

Well, if that CNP thing doesn't work out for him, there's always that meeting down in the bunker that's been haunting my nightmares lately: What George Bush and John McCain said on their way down to the bunker to meet with Dick Cheney.

I am hopeful that with each new cheap shot (see todays suggestion that obamas entire campaign is a big lie, and only the foreign press has been let in on it), there are fewer and fewer able to see a halo hovering over Clinton's head; and those remaining are forced to close their eyes, cover their ears, and insist that hillary is "the one" whatever is happening in the world, however dishonest her campaign becomes.

First I laughed out loud-then I got the same creepy feeling.

...how long before Gary Bauer gets caught in a bathroom stall doing the craig dance....

and the sad thing is (before I and others were banned from DKos) is that the anti-HRC people were warning about her big time, there were better other candidates as well as Obama.
She is dangerous, its a power at all costs and to hell with everybody else thing with her.
Dkos (and it seems the Democrat party) has more than its quota of late-middle aged 'women' who dote on cats and dashing young things in uniforms and glorious sanitized TVed overseas wars.
HRC to me seems to be a vanity presidential candidate, being the wife of a popular ex-president doesnt make her the saviour,
and doing the bush-lite thing will not repair the damage done by 8 years of Chimpy &co.
She needs to stop doingt he Republicans dirty work and remember that being president is only a job, a big job but not the 'be all and end all', getting a democratic government back in power and repairing the US is the critical thing for 08.

and they bury the evidence before is starts smelling.

i haven't heard barack say hillary is too old......but maybe now that you raise the argument...

Only this group of narrow-minded, power-obsessed, money-hungry, elitist assholes could come to my devastated city to discuss anything but how to improve the conditions of my city. Yeah, and the presidential debate committee still claims the decision not to hold one of the debates here was strictly a matter of New Orleans' "not being ready" to host this type of major event. Whatever. In the last year New Orleans has hosted large public events of increasingy size and complexity with little to no public safety incidents: the Arena Bowl, the Sugar Bowl, the BCS Championship and the NBA All-Star Game, which begs the question: who's really not ready to have a debate here? So what city gets to cash in on hosting one of the debates? Oxford, Mississpippi, of course - adopted hometown of William Faulkner and, of course, a small town with average convention facilities in a state with a well-connected Republican governor who just happens to have been a tobacco lobbyist prior to running for office. But, again, we must remember that the decision was not political. (For the record, seven past & present presidential candidates signed letters to the committee requesting that one of the debates be held in New Orleans: Joseph Biden, Sam Brownback, Hillary Clinton, Christopher Dodd, John Edwards, John McCain and Barack Obama.)

Anyway, this reminds me of the way the NRA seems to hold rallies in cities recently affected by gun-toting mass murderers, as if they want to make the pain worse. I wish I believed in a hell because it would put a big, fat smile on my face knowing these scumbags would be taking the A-Train straight there as soon as they kicked the bucket.

No, we just had to take NAFTA, welfare reform, no healthcare(which they were going to get and 8 years later. nothing) Then of course, we had Travelgate. Filegate, Monicagate, Jennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Whitewater, Fostergate, Ken Starr, Inpeachment, a Republican Congress, and some I am sure I have missed.

after all, that was her strongest point in the last several weeks-- obama is too young to be president, and your kids will suffer for it..

isnt it part of the bush-lite baby boomer creed to grab all you can and to hell with everybody else.
The baby boomers are for anything which is relevant to their generation until their generation goes beyond that point.
then its onto the next must have point, the big scare about pensions these days, health care for kids who cares.

to take a socialist progressive democrat thinking perspective, you establish a level playing field safety net,
beyond this nobody falls, and everybody has enough to eat and minimal health care and a chance to get a job.
Luxuries and consumer goods are earnt as most people would think is proper, but a basic decent standard of living for people is a basic right.

That's pinkocommie thinking. But very true.

Ex Prime minister Tony Blair for all his smarmyness did one very good thing in the UK in the late 90s,
he established the minimum that was considered decent to live on, upping the minimum wage and getting the family credit schem working, so that families would have a guiaranteed 250 UKP to live on per week.
Britain and its economy did not collapse into a socialist mess (as predicted by republicans) and its economy and people are thriving.

And this didn't create a sense of entitlement in Britain? Surely this unleashed an entire decade of nothing but welfare queens driving around in Cadil...er..Jaguars.

god yes, wall to wall traffic jams comprising nothing but rollers, jags, cadis and C5s.

Treasury and Wall Street boyz better load up on methedrine. It's going to be a sleepless weekend. And Monday is going to get here fast.

From the link:

The membership list this year was a who's who of evangelical Protestant conservatives and their allies, including Dr. Dobson, Mr. Weyrich, Holland H. Coors of the beer dynasty; Wayne LaPierre of the National Riffle Association, Richard A. Viguerie of American Target Advertising, Mark Mix of the National Right to Work Committee and Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform.

Okay, what's the big secret they're keeping? We all know what their separate agendas are, I think we all suspect what they're aiming at in unison.

No, we know what they're trying to do. These are the same people who've been pulling the strings of the GOP puppet show for the last 20 or 30 years.

So what's the secret? A meth-fueled orgy with illegal immigrant boys? What?

IMO, the concerns about pensions are legit. People worked for that money- pensions are simply wages deferred until , roughly, retirement.

And I think you're making an "or" argument that isn't there. It's not "Pensions OR SCHIP".

I think that the pension concerns cross party lines. There are a lot of Red and Blue voters who would be harmed if their pensions went *POOF*. Children's Healthcare seems to be divided along politically, not age-related, fault lines, however.

Theres enough Congresscritters in both houses to move important bills covering all the major topics through at the same time,
cowardice and other things stops it in reality, lobbyists whips and skeletons keeps the important stuff off the books.

Well, I disagree.

I know what happened with SCHIP- it passed both the Senate and House and was vetoed by Stupor Mundi. Not enough Republicans voted to override the veto.

I don't know where pension legislation stands now in Congress, but it wouldn't surprise me that if it was introduced the same thing would happen here as with the SCHIP legislation.

And that's not lobbying. That's partisan politics with the White House holding just enough power to sway a handful of Congress-people and defeat legislation that the White House opposes along philosophical lines.

The Clintons had the Democratic Party so exhausted from having to defend them for 8 years, we could not even put up a good fight in 2000. Everytime I hear someone mention Obama as Clintons VP, I think about Al Gore. Once she gets done, its over for Obama. He better not take that deal.
