Obama admin's OPM, headed by a gay man, reportedly blocks lesbian from getting health benefits
It's neurologically hard wired, probably.
See my forthcoming, "Sniper fire hallucinations in the veracity challenged sleep deprived population."
That was weird; especially since I haven't been to Denver in 15 years.
She is honor deprived.
She is brain deprived.
She is memory deprived.
She is deprived!

She doesn't misspeak....she LIES! Hillary's whole life, even her autobiography, has been a stretch of her imagination. She seems to have something against telling the truth and laughs it off when caught red-handed in a lie as her remembered "memory"! She is a legend, a work of fiction, in her mind.
If Hillary needs sleep that badly, I hope she goes to sleep tonight and pulls a Rip Van Winkle and sleeps at least through November 4th.
She will be unable to keep up with such a busy schedule, and she will be lying to heads of nations, and maybe cause an international incident.
She was under the impression that she could get away with it, when she kept exaggerating and lying about her so called experience. The Clinton camp after playing dirty politics, and thrown the kitchen sink at someone from her own party, and endorsing the republican candidate, have even managed to convince their naive supporters, that it was the Obama camp that is attacking poor, defenseless Hillary.
The question now is, can we nominate a candidate who has impaired judgment (voting for Iraq), and who now is memory impaired.
I think not.
At Indiana University, Chelsea only attracted a crowd of 300 at a university of 40,000. That included having actor Sean Astin accompany her lately to help draw crowds. Seemed most at IU were most excited to see Astin and kept giving him a cheer of, "Rudy, Rudy, Rudy......" Chelsea got her first heckler of the campaign who asked her how she felt about Monica. Chelsea got pissed off, said in 70 colleges she has spoken before in the campaign, NOBODY had ever asked her such a question and she told him "it is none of your business!" Chelsea visits Butler U, Ball State, and Notre Dame tomorrow. Bill and Chelsea started their Hoosier trek on Monday at Dyngus Day (Polish "Mardi Gras") festivities in South Bend before Bill took off and hit several county seats between that city and Terre Haute. He was accompanied by former Gov. Kernan and was be met by Sen. Evan Bayh in Terre Haute and today was stumping in Kentucky. Bill Clinton isn't even filling Hoosier high school gyms but then Indiana is a red state, the only Midwestern State to go for Poppy Bush in 1992, NOT Bill Clinton.

You have your proper screen name back -- BRAVO!
In re flat versus intended replies, I don't believe that the indented variety will show up on the main comments page, but you can go into the so-called "Community Page" where across the top you will find a menu that lets you choose "flat" or "threaded"-- which I think means indented -- also, you can always go into your "view full profile" page and look for direct repllies to all of your comments.
I know, I know...it's all so complicated.
:)

Yes DISQUSting software is a pain, but not much we can do about it....
Hope you are well. I've been talking to alot of people lately, on the bus, on the street, lots of Obama supporters in Chicago here. I start with this: "Obama is being used as a patsy." That definitely turns their ears up!!
Then I continue with this premise: "YOU HAVE BEEN LIED TO!!! and you have bought this quaint little notion (hook, line and sinker) that we live in a democracy. let me explain...."
in a bedpan in DeQueen yesterday's news afterthought named Hillary Clinton.

Hit and miss, was doing it to me the other night as well.
Yeah...ate my entire last post...was going to tell Grant it was doing the same thing to me the other night every time I tried to post a link....
You are in a hole. Stop digging.
I usually just confess to anything someone asks me to confess to....yeah...ya got me, I did it..
Sleep deprivation can cause a variety of symptoms -- mental and physical -- but lying and exaggerating and making up shit to pad a really thin résumé when running for president is not one of them.
Note to Hillary: There is a well-documented remedy for sleep deprivation -- remove yourself from the sources of strees, take a vacation, get lots of sleep, and talk to your doctor about sleep medication if necessary. And stop lying, because it only causes more stress when you get caught on tape.

Get the f over it. she is still better than anything the Republicans can put forward

Yeah -- well that bar isn't set very high. Republicans are traitors. Some of them are crooks and traitors. Many of them are cowards, crooks, and traitors.
No...nothing. It was too far to the north I think.
Hang up that pant suit already and get some sleep!

a rabbit??
Whatever he does, he is guaranteed to make a lot of enemies...more than he has now.
Jessica, it's like watching a train wreak.
Excellent point and deliciously well-stated!
We have had a Commander-in-Chief who can't distinguish reality from make believe for the past seven years and look at how well that worked out. The last thing we need is another fabricator in the White House.
The very notion that Hillary's eight years as First Lady would qualify her to be the President of the United States was always laughable on its face -- and if she had better judgment, she would have known that was the case. But lousy judgment is Hillary's tragic flaw.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let’s take a look at what she’s going to put her party through for the sake of that 5 percent chance: The Democratic Party is probably going to have to endure another three months of daily sniping. For another three months, we’ll have the Carvilles likening the Obamaites to Judas and former generals accusing Clintonites of McCarthyism. For three months, we’ll have the daily round of résumé padding and sulfurous conference calls. We’ll have campaign aides blurting “blue dress” and only-because-he’s-black references as they let slip their private contempt.

If Hillary was a REAL Democrat and cared about he party instead of herself, she would do as John Edwards and the rest....drop out.
Lovely Puppet Show we are having, no???
+
This is starting to "feel" like a John Kerry campaign....
I beleive that Hillary is in this to destroy Obama and TRY to secure the Democratic nomination for herself. IF that doesn't happen, I am oh so confident she will run with McCain as either his VP or as someone in his cabinet.

"US, Iraqi troops battle Shiite militia By ROBERT H. REID, Associated Press Writer
4 minutes ago
Iraq's leaders faced their gravest challenge in months Tuesday as Shiite militiamen loyal to anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr battled government forces for control of the southern oil capital, fought U.S. and Iraqi troops in Baghdad and unleashed rockets on the Green Zone.
Armed Mahdi Army militiamen appeared on some Baghdad streets for the first time in more than six months, as al-Sadr's followers announced a nationwide campaign of strikes and demonstrations to protest a government crackdown on their movement. Merchants shuttered their shops in commercial districts in several Baghdad neighborhoods.
U.S. and Iraqi troops backed by helicopters fought Shiite militiamen in Baghdad's Sadr City district after the local office of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's Dawa Party came under attack, the U.S. said. Residents of the area reported intermittent explosions and gunfire in the area late Tuesday."
----------------------
i read earlier that al-Sadr was asking for civil disobedience" against the invaders/occupiers. This occupation is clearly not a blunder. and until we jump on board on that notion, we aren't gonna get to far. Its NOT a WAR damn it!!!

bumpkis
That makes two of us!
Reid: “Things are being done to end the Dem Primary before the Convention.”
What's up with this elitist over-lord shit, anyway, where the Party elders will "take care of everything" behind the scenes? Note the passive voice -- "things are being done" -- it's like when someone says, "Mistakes were made." It's the first sign of incoming bullshit!
"Things are being done"....WTF? Okay, but what exactly is "being done" and by whom?
And when do the rest of us -- the voters -- get to know what our wise Superdelegate elders have decided for us. Wasn't it these very same elitist Democratic Party officials who got us into this primary/caucus mess in the first place? Please!
It's beginning to feel like a Laurel and Hardy movie when Oliver Hardy says, "This is another fine mess you've gotten us into."

Why do I have the sinking feeling that Harry Reid would like to see Hillary Clinton in the White House? Is it because they are both DINOs?
Or am I just drifting into a hopeless state of paranoia? Sleep deprivation, perhaps.
Still, when someone in a position of authority delivers a cryptic statement like "Things are being done"...I become very nervous, not to mention suspicious -- especially, when the speaker is Harry Reid. I don't trust him and with damned good reason. Harry likes to play games.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No matter what Reid may want personally, I don't think he is willing to decimate the Democratic Party on a whim. Sit tight, I think they will have some kind of small convention that forces the delegates to vote in the open and what comes from that will be the party line.
I sure hope that you're right about that. All I know is that whatever creative process the Democratic Party leadership devises to repair this battered primary season, they damned sure better do it out in the open in the light of day for us all to see.
:)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oddley Grant, I am in total agreement with you. It really begs the question, what could HIlary be getting out of this if she knows she has lost?? What is she looking for in return of this next gruling 3 months to the DEM convention? Whats the upside for her?
------
She knows she lost, but she wants to weaken Obama so McCain can take him in the General.
Then, in 2012 when old man McCain either drops out or looks even worse than he does now, she figures she'll have a clear shot.
She would be much better served by attempting to explain to the public at large why Ann Lewis, described as a top Clinton aide, and thus presumably speaking for Mrs. Clinton made the following statement to a United Jewish Communities group on March 18, 2008: "The role of the presidents of the United States is to support decisions made by the people of Israel."
Iraq's leaders faced their gravest challenge in months

and if she wants to answer that 3am phone call, wont she be sleep deprived then???
Hi Sarah! I couldn't agree more with that thought, but I DO actually think they know that it better be done in the sunlight OR they will have one incredibly angry group of ex-Dem's on their hands.
So, in essence, Hillary's Presidential experience is touring a bunch of podunk locations she's sent to make America seem interested in their wellbeing.
Not only is this not presidential experience, it's beneath the rather limited bar usually set by the vice-president of B-list funerals, no?
What a catastrophic argument to repeat over and over and over again.
(New babies can make you loose LOTS of sleep).
Like they didn't make hay out of the whole Cambodea thing with Kerry!!
In any event, the delegates aren't happy with Hill's nastiness and just may go for Barack for that very reason. So perhaps this whole thing is crashing down on Ms Clinton....
Now today, I heard Hillary say it was really just a "joke" and that everybody should "lighten up" about it (her words). Well, what is it--- misspeaking, or a joke? They are not the same thing? And what's the joke in saying you were under sniper fire? And how is it a "joke" if you're describing it as if it seriously happened?
I've lost all respect for Hillary.
Making an assertation that they sent her somewhere when "it was too dangerous for the President" to go, simply does not pass the irst glance honesty test. Why does she feel that insecure about her role as first lady that she constantly needs to lie about it... that she needs to lie about the very essence of it?
Here are some major things Hillary has told bold face lies about.
She lied about her involvment in SCHIP. She did not sponsor it.
She lied about her involvement in the Northern Ireland peace accords.
She lied about her previous positions on NAFTA.
She lied about her support for the Invasion of Iraq. She flat out supported the invasion, and used evidence from her husbands time in office to further justify an attack. She was one of the biggest hawks on Iraq, Her assertations that she "thought Bush would use diplomacy first" are a flat out lie. You do not have to take my word for it, anyone with a computor can watch her floor speech on the vote on youtube.
She has lied multiple times about her opponent.
She lied about Obamas position on NAFTA.
She lied about Obamas posiiton on Choice.
This latest lie is nothing new. She has continually lied throughout this campaign. Anyone who cares to add more examples, feel free.
We need to stop all this fussing. Hillary has to go away. The effort being expended to catch Senator Obama in some kind of mistake which she thinks will then make the delegates switch to her is unbelievable. BillO yesterday claiming that the regular delegates already committed to Senator Obama do not have vote fpr him is beyond lunacy. This campaign makes the Dems look like some banana repupublic at the same time acting like a spoiled kid who was promised something and didn't get it. Hillary you have been exposed, you are a mean, deceitful person. A person who is blindly following what you deem to be your destiny in spite of the fact the majority don't want you. In some ways I wish Gore and Kerry had shown some of your greed for the position, maybe we wouldn't be watching Chimpy continue to stagger through his Presidency.
Liars have no place in the Whitehouse we have had a Presidency for 16 years filled with liars.
