This could be just talk around the cigar humidifier, but...the story is that Rev. Wright was the right man for the job during Monicagate. His visit to the White House alledgely to counsel Bill, where was Hitllary then. Now,... I wondered why Hitllary did not jump on the chance to pounce. But she retracted her claws, that phatcat-like arched back went straight as a cigar.
It was Rev. Wright answering that 3:00am phone call, that time my dear lady Klinton.
It was then her preserverance should have been part of the blueprint on our campaign for Senator Obama...so to expect her to give up...a negative... she stood by her man...she will stand by her plan.

While Hillary poses with “the boys” slamming back drinks and claiming Rush Limbaugh has a crush on her ...
After 2 faint, Clinton cracks joke about making 'em swoon
LENOIR, N.C. (AP) - Former President Bill Clinton is cracking wise about his ability to make people faint, telling voters in North Carolina he didn't think he still had it in him.
Clinton was campaigning Sunday for his wife's presidential bid on a hot and sunny day in western North Carolina. The state's primary is Tuesday.
After one person fell during an event in Lenoir, Clinton joked: "Somebody faints at nearly every one of these things now. At my age, I didn't think I could make anybody faint anymore."
I've been looking for someone willing to discuss this issue and other issues that are being suppressed. I don't know why some think it's negative to bring up these issues. This is an important issue. Yes, it's negative for Mr. Obama to do it because that how it labeled. His hands are tied. My hands are free and willing to help him get the issues out. It's important that Mr. Obama gets the nomination and the presidnecy.

After reading this article it gave me new insight on how I can help. We can report facts.
Now, this is my "opinion", I have a problem with Bill in the White House period. I know if I had a young daughter working as an intern in the White House, I would not want her exposed to Bill. The thing I hated most about that, was how, not only the media, but Hillary treated Monica. I wonder if her life was ruined by this. I'm sure it's not easy for her being the butt of jokes and harsh judgment. Bill on the other had is making money and seems to be one fat happy camper. I don't trust Bill. He committed adultery. Have everyone forgotten. I haven't forgotten what was on that dress! I know, as some say, he's not running for president and my answer is: If he committed sexual act in the white house with those other than his wife when he was president, what is he going to do as he "freelance" in the White House! That's an issue that needs to be discussed in my opinion. I'm requesting your friendship. I hope you except, I'd like to continue this dialog. I created a group called “Decompression Chamber for Obamniacs .... like myself, that want to discuss the issues that are being buried by the media. I have several post and would more than welcome your comments and/or opinions. I have some very interesting links that will leave you in awe. I thought it best not to put them on the main blog. Things that no one's talking about. Thank you very much for reading my comment. Now, I'm back to the phones! VOTE OBAMA THIS FALL IN THE PRIMARIES & theGENERAL ELECTION
Bitter people do different things out of bitterness. For example, Reverend Wright went to church and exercised his freedom of speech and freedom of religion and preached from the pulpit on subject matters that were inappropriate. Dick Cheney exercised his freedom to bear arms and shot his fellow hunter. G.W. Bush exercised his executive privilege and invaded Iraq pre-emptively. Lou Dobbs gets on the air and sighs about the invasion of millions of illegal aliens. John McCain runs for president so that he could stay in Iraq for 100 years because he could not live with the shame of another Vietnam. Hillary runs for president because that would make Monica very afraid. Barack runs for president because he wants to disarm terrorist leaders not with arms but with dialog punctuated by his disarming smile. Anderson Cooper gets his own show AC 360 to dazzle all the gay gentlemen around the world with his brilliance and then flashes his cute smile to torture them. And powerless me, I get to blog till I die, then I get to be buried in the cyber tomb of the unknown blogger.
Clinton was quoted to writer Halperin in today's news stating,
"I don't understand what Senator Obama was afraid of..."
SAID THE SPIDER TO THE FLY
***OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT****
On another note... Chelsea Clinton answered a question on the campaign trail being, "none of your business" when asked about Monica Lewinsky and Hillary Clinton. Does she have an "ear feed" from a Clinton surrogate instructing answers? The high road and politically correct answer would have been much different; instead, Chelsea Clinton chose the road she is most familiar... nasty politics... rude to her own constituent. This is obviously a sore spot for the campaign and the Clinton family. MONICA LEWINSKY is a button that when pushed, makes the Clintons squeal, or run for cover.

Subject: Shawn Hannity - STOP the anti-OBAMA FOX VIRUS NOW
Dear Mr. Hannity;
By now you must certainly be aware that a NATIONAL MOVEMENT is in motion against you and against what America has come to know as THE FOX VIRUS that comes forth from the RADICAL EXTREMIST NEO-CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN mouthpiece that you and FOX have become. Presenting our voice to the media of America now comes in the form of the Robert Greenwald film “Fox Attacks Obama (Spreading the Virus)” which, as you can see, is the envelope sent “special delivery” and containing the national petition now underwritten by moveon.org and their Political Action’s Adam Green.
After the travesty of ethical journalism perpetrated by FEMA on October 26, 2007, where it hosted its own “staged” televised news conference reporting on the state of EMERGENCY SERVICES to victims of Hurricane Katrina, it was brought to the attention of America that, not only was the person addressing this “skit” a FEMA official, but so were those asking the questions who, while posing as reporters, were exposed by Al Kamen of The Washington Post in his article FEMA Meets the Press, Which Happens to Be . . . FEMA. The fact that the article alleges that you carried this charade LIVE, and then passed on the video to MSNBC and other news outlets, renders FOX Television, and its agents, complicit in the efforts of what Christy Hardin Smith, of FIREDOGLAKE, calls The Department of Planting Your Own Propaganda And Hoping No One Notices assigned to the Bush administration.
Mr. Hannity, neither you, nor your colleague-at-arms, Rush Limbaugh, can be allowed, by a nation on the very brink of social, economic, political and global chaos, to continue manipulating puppet strings, pushing buttons and pulling levers the outcome of which you CLEARLY know nothing about. Mr. Limbaugh’s disgracefully titled attempt at hijacking the current Presidential election has earned him the dubious distinction of being named WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/23908634#23908634) by MSNBC's KEITH OLBERMANN. It now appears on his own website with the headline Operation Chaos Under Assault.
As you frantically attempt to continue the milking of the Reverend Jeremiah Wright controversy, synthetically created by your Conservative minions, you appear less than pathetic before an increasingly intolerant nation that, as you can see, by Senator John McCain’s attainment of the honorable position of The Republican Presidential Nominee, America has declared you and your Neoconservative “cult”, politically, philosophically, morally and subversively UNDESIREABLE.
I, and America, continue to observe your frenzied contribution to the engineering and staging of a premeditated and choreographed conspiracy aimed at discrediting the legitimacy of Senator Barack Obama as a Presidential candidate, as well as the WONDER of the grass-roots movement taking shape around him. We watch in dismay as you question your guests, carefully selected to provide the most desirable answers for the damming of the voice of HOPE that FOX radio has described as “sounding like Hitler.” Yet, when Democratic Analysts, Tanya Acker and Bob Beckel, as well as your own Alan Colmes, have asked you questions as simple as “So, are you saying that every child whose parents took them to the Trinity United Church of Christ is, therefore, disqualified from growing up to aspire to one day becoming President of the United States,” you conspicuously, and at every turn, refuse to answer the question. You are fully aware that, answering that question, honestly, would reduce you to the hypocritical contradiction of yourself that you are. Take note, Mr. Hannity, your refusal to respond implicitly convicts you in spite of you.
I was held in utter disbelief … which then slowly grew to anger when, last night, you summoned former House Speaker, Newt Gingrich, to join in the spreading of THE FOX VIRUS. I found two things to be in poignant opposition with your intention of subverting America. The first was Mr. Gingrich’s repeated insistence that he did NOT question Senator Obama’s integrity, his loyalty to America or his non-alignment with Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s apparent anti-American rants. Later in the same program, and despite your best efforts, this same opinion was echoed, with even greater emphasis and eloquence, by Senator John McCain, who insisted on addressing issues of legitimate concern to our country and clearly, refused to participate in your scripted outcomes. You must, as a consequence, Sir, be torn between wondering if the walls of correctness are closing in on you or whether they, in fact, are spreading so far apart that your only company would be the members of your own League of Liars.
The second observation, born of your program’s intentions, last night, was your patent set-up of “JUDGMENT” as the supposedly flawed characteristic displayed by Senator Barack Obama in his choosing to continue to attend Wright’s Trinity church. You spoke the word “JUDGMENT,” with diacritical accentuation, no less than a dozen times and consistently modified it with adjectives such as “flawed,” “poor,” etc in your transparent attempt to pre-empt the Senator’s platform of SOUND JUDGEMENT in the furtherance of his Presidential bid. I will excuse myself from redundancy and I will quote my own words from the letter that, on March 16, 2008, I sent to you and Fox Management titled SHAWN HANNITY - THE PINNACLE OF IRRESPONSIBLE JOURNALISM AT ITS WORST:
“Gentlemen, if this was Shawn Hannity’s way of weaving “illusions of war-mongering” with which to surround a Presidential candidate who stands on a platform of DIALOGUE as his preferred weapon of pre-emption of war, you may want to advise him about the fact that we ARE, in fact, in a war unjustly started; a war that he endorsed and that he is a member of the political party that started it. Senator Obama was the legislator who attempted unsuccessfully to galvanize an effective movement to avoid it. History has proven him to have been STRATEGICALLY CORRECT and no degree of Mr. Hannity’s resenting him for it will grant him access to that elite minority reserved solely for the JUDGEMENTALLY SOUND.”
Last night, what achieved the “apex of the offensive,” Sir, was that you utilized former Speaker, Newt Gingrich, to assist you in making the point of presenting Senator Obama’s judgment as, somehow, flawed. Might I remind you that Newt Gingrich headed the 1998 charge to impeach President William Jefferson Clinton on charges stemming from the extramarital affair that he sustained with one Monica Lewinsky. In a March 8, 2007 Associated Press article featured on your very own FOX News, titled "Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich Acknowledges ...Having Affair During Clinton Impeachment," we are presented with an interview with James Dobson of Focus on the Family that reveals the following:
“Gingrich argued in the interview, however, that he should not be viewed as a hypocrite for pursuing Clinton's infidelity.”
"The president of the United States got in trouble for committing a felony in front of a sitting federal judge," the former Georgia congressman said of Clinton's 1998 House impeachment on perjury and obstruction of justice charges. "I drew a line in my mind that said, 'Even though I run the risk of being deeply embarrassed, and even though at a purely personal level I am not rendering judgment on another human being, as a leader of the government trying to uphold the rule of law, I have no choice except to move forward and say that you cannot accept ... perjury in your highest officials."
Sir, translated into common English, this says…There are rules and laws that apply to ALL, including the President of The United States, but that I, because my name is Newt Gingrich, a Neoconservative, reserve the right to exempt myself from them. No, Mr. Hannity, your show, your network, your self-righteous, pontificating ploys called supporting guests, your intentions, your manic obsession with imposing dynastic rule… but most of all, YOU… are tacitly UNACCEPTABLE as is your effort to present this morally diseased neoconservative “fowl” as someone qualified to “judge the judgment” of EAGLES. I am taking the liberty of forwarding this correspondence to Representative Henry Waxman, who, last year moved to have yours and Mr. Rush Limbaugh’s actions investigated, as well as to Federal Communications Commission Chairman, Kevin Martin, who, I am advised, has been put on notice of the nature of your endeavors, that now appear to many, as being contrary to our very national security.
America will NEVER belong to your minion of disguised patriotic indigence, Sir, and, least of all, to YOU. I would suggest that you listen to a song, considered by many of my generation as an American Anthem, and that I recently sent to the Democratic Superdelegates as well. In ’64 Bob Dylan spoke of times that were “a-changing. I submit to you, Shawn Hannity, that there is an unmistakable wind of CHANGE in the air and MILLIONS, like me, bear witness to its hopeful reality. To you, and to those like you, frantically trying to stop this will be like trying to stop the wind. We have paid for this campaign and for this movement, unlike the politicians of yesteryears and of today, with our own monies, 5, 10, 25 dollars at a time. I know that you must resent the force that such a movement presents. Your colleagues must , as well, fear the threat to their lifetime relationships with lobbyist dollars that will scatter like fallen leaves on this wind. Yes, Mr Hannity, make no mistake. More than times a-changing, Sir, the times …THEY DUN HAVE CHANGED!
Come senators, congressmen Please heed the call Don't stand in the doorway Don't block up the hall For he that gets hurt Will be he who has stalled There's a battle outside And it is ragin'. It'll soon shake your windows And rattle your walls For the times they are a-changin'.
From the song The Times They Are A-Changin’ by Bob Dylan (1964)

Fort Lauderdale, FL
Now it makes ‘perfect’ sense
Your claim of being so strong on defense
The war in Iraq you voted LINK“
Democracy” you quoted
Part of you on-going demise
Is that you won’t even apologize
For your vote of “Yea”
Five years later you’re still engaging in word play.
Here’s another piece of your legacy Ms. Hillary?
You accepted the largest amount of corporate donations in US history? LINK LINK
What, you no longer like NAFTA, LINK
Now that’s it’s the White House you’re after
And you’re happy that the 2001 bankruptcy bill never became law
As usual, your argument reveals a flaw
It’s another showing of your lacks of clear judgment
The very reason you can’t become our President
Where’s proof of your experience times 35 years LINK
And we’re not talking about the time you spent collecting white house souvenirs
Here’s another lie stretched from sea to shining’ sea
Your ‘supposed’ experienced in foreign policy
Those ‘traditional first lady activities’
Like greeting world leader & celebrities
How does any of that even relate
To being President of these United States?
And what about those earmark requests
Oops…another failed transparency test.
A judge might say Hillary Clinton, "opened the door" to the war on words. She has recently shown her talents by having a "sore-loser" meltdown. The words of "SHAME ON YOU" were heard not so long ago by Bill Clinton to a CNN reporter. The link is provided below. Move to the time frame of 2:00 and you will hear Bill Clinton's same words, "Shame on you." Additionally, CNN ran a story a few days ago which showed her borrowing the same words from Bill Clinton, as well as John Edwards.
http://video.aol.com/video-detail/bill-clinton-to-press-shame-on-you/2638598808
The "Shame" verbiage is something Bill may have said many times to Hillary and it's all -- garbage in, garbage out. She is having something along the lines of displaced anger and is initiating a calculated fight with our candidate. Her anger may stem from her losing this primary, or it may stem from Bill's relationships with many other women... she allegedly slapped him when she found out of his Monica tryst -- if there is any shame to be had, it most certainly goes to Bill Clinton.
The silver lining here, is that while speaking to the press (while having her calculated meltdown, "showing emotion"-- remember the staged tears?) Hillary Clinton was holding -- in her hand -- a Barack Obama mailing, so we know they're reaching people. These points obviously "pushed her buttons" and everyone knows that when one is upset or angered, they're off their game. So, to the people who worked on that mailing, OUTSTANDING! You truly Obamafied Rodham Clinton.
Picking a fight. The war of words she stated at the end of her rant, were that along the lines of a grade school fight... "meet me in Ohio, and let's have a debate about your tactics,"..." Our candidate was going to be there WITHOUT her shout out; however, not to debate "tactics" but rather to debate the issues of the Economy, Iraq, Immigration, Homeland Security, Healthcare, Education, and many more that are of the utmost importance. Clinton has threatened a fight. She chose to fight in Iraq, and now she is chosing to fight in Ohio. We've had enough fighting, especially in Iraq, we don't need it while chosing a leader for our country.
Clinton has had more than a few incidents surrounding her campaign, wherein lives were put in danger, and now death. Enough fighting, enough war, enough death. Enough Hillary Clinton... let's wrap-up this primary and get our candidate to the White House!
In my previous blog post, Obama and women, I mentioned the notions of women feeling they have an obligation to vote for Hilary Clinton because she's a woman, and the compulsion to support a woman on principle, because she is running for president.
Consider these points: When Bill Clinton was exposed as having an affair of sorts with Monica Lewinski, Hilary claimed that Monica was not telling the truth. Rather, she publicly and vehemently blamed the "right-wing Republicans" for a conspiracy against her husband. All of her assertions against Monica and the Republicans proved to be blatant lies. She betrayed all women by lying to protect her husband.
Is this the type of woman you can trust to represent women's issues? NO.
Second point, Hilary is clearly riding on her husband's coattails by citing his achievements and successes as a reason to trust HER leadership. This is completely contrary to the princiiples of feminist ideology and practice.
If you find yourself saying that you will vote for Hilary Clinton because her husband, Bill Clinton, "did a good job as president", beware. Bill Clinton says he will do whatever Hilary asks him to do. Is he really capable of being that passive? I think not. He is trying to manipulate women with his charm and appearance of flexibility. I predict he will leave Hilary to fend for herself if she is elected president, but that's another story.
It is a twisted dynamic we're being fed here, people. Don't believe it!
Straight from the horse's mouth:
"I'll take the excitement wherever I can get it." -- Bill Clinton on Late Night with David Letterman, September 4, 2007.
"Excitement" as in forbidden sex? Monica, Jennifer, Catherine, Debra... etc.
He's still seeking excitement and the polar icecaps won't be the only things having a meltdown... Scenario: Hillary in the Oval Office... Bill taking on some "excitement"... Our country in danger of a woman scorned... NO THANKS!
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT '08
