Obama admin's OPM, headed by a gay man, reportedly blocks lesbian from getting health benefits
But, alas, I'm karma-less
She was shot a second after the photo was taken because they thought she was wired with explosives.
She wasn't, but it was no time to take chances.
Anderson Cooper: The full story behind Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s 9/11 sermon

I forget the NY Times article they all ran with a few weeks ago but I was thinking that was such an example of piss-poor journalism.
Journalism 101 says you have to go back and confirm a story with sources before you run a version of it yourself.
I swear, these TV people must have no journalism background whatsoever.
LOL.
I never thought all the Supers would think Hillary's the best candidate anyway.
Most of them remember the 90s, when they lost seats in Congress and Governorships and paid a downticket price for the Clinton's shenanigans.
The other thing that we need to do is adopt shorter election cycles. I sometimes feel drained watching this all play out. It also depresses me to see the Clintons go down this way. It is all in slow motion.
I recognized the Clintons had their faults but I honestly thought they had matured and learned from their past. However, they really have showed that crazy Clinton anger and drama -- which really is not becoming. If she were the nominee, I would still vote for Hillary because I think we will possibly have a Supreme Court vacancy (Heaven forbid for death, but possibly for retirement....after all, Justice Stevens won't retire until a Democrat is president. is elected).
Thank you for listening.

I don't see how the surge falling apart helps a guy who's built his candidacy on "The Surge is Working."

what a scum
Very funny!
Go to his web site and explore it.
There is a reason why most of the major Dems are supporting him, you know.
(Oh, and it's well known that Hillary and Gore don't like each other, so don't count on that ticket.)
I wish the MSM would get some balls and start pointing this out.

Obama '08!
You're doing a hell of a job Scotty!
Now with any luck both Condi AND Scotty will be cleaning out their desks.
It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch. What do you think?
And then send the reporter directly to the KBR/Halliburton showers for a little "shock treatment".
So, that is my advice if you want to discover for yourself why I now think Obama will be a positive agent for change in this country. The chapter on the Constitution was a gem in itself, btw.
I did and it lead me to believe that Obama is the right candidate at the right time. McCain and Hillary both represent nothing but the continuing failures of policies past. Obama is the right person to lead our nation at this time. IMHO.
Take a look at the characters the Clintons hang around with.
Got it.
You aren't undecided, unless it's between Hillary and McCain.
Admit it.
It's been dis-recommended too.
All its posts are saying is that it'll never vote for Obama. Well, that's alright. This is a free country and it can vote as it wishes, but I hope that it will understand that we believe it'd never vote for Obama period. In other words, it is transparent.
Obama is being held accountable for two 30 second sound bites taken from over 30 years of his preacher's sermons and a statement of fact about the role racism plays in the United States. Unfortunately, America is all about the soundbite and the knee-jerk reaction and none about thoughtful discourse and careful consideration. This is what is giving this story legs, that and the bought-and-paid-for media that desparately does NOT want another Kennedy in government -- they'd rather a McCain or Clinton presidency because that would further their agenda.
In the case that happens, well, this great country will suffer even more, and the things that prompted Wright to say 'God Damn America' will continue unabated.
I might have agreed with the resulting opinion of "lie or lies" until I had seen an update as follows:
" UPDATE Friday 6:45 p.m.
Lissa Muscatine, who served as Hilary Clinton's chief speechwriter in 1996 and accompanied her on the Bosnia trip, feels that I have failed to provide a full picture of what took place. She gave me her "vivid recollections" of the arrival in Tuzla, which I quote below:
I was on the plane with then First Lady Hillary Clinton for the trip from Germany into Bosnia in 1996. We were put on a C17-- a plane capable of steep ascents and descents -- precisely because we were flying into what was considered a combat zone. We were issued flak jackets for the final leg because of possible sniper fire near Tuzla. As an additional precaution, the First Lady and Chelsea were moved to the armored cockpit for the descent into Tuzla. We were told that a welcoming ceremony on the tarmac might be canceled because of sniper fire in the hills surrounding the air strip. From Tuzla, Hillary flew to two outposts in Bosnia with gunships escorting her helicopter."
I don't want to give Hillary Clinton a 100% pass and I don't want to give her a 100% lie. Until I see more information I'm going to go with "embellishing a situation and or surroundings".
On a side note I have noticed the Washington Post article has a video link that goes to NEWS BUSTERS.org If anybody has the time to read NewsBusters.org main page you will find their slogan reads like this:
Exposing and Combating Liberal Media Bias
I won't speak for anyone else but my ears turned red when I read that slogan. It amkes me wonder what kind of bedfellows Washington Post keeps.
