    Obama is so much more of a skilled politician than Gore or Kerry, it's off the frigging charts.

    Obama's rapid response:

    My fellow Americans, if you let this stupid shit determine how you pick a president, if you have not learned a damn thing from 2000 and 2004, then you will get the president you fucking deserve.

    I'm going to go have a smoke. Good night.

    Glenn Greenwald does a nice job with this crap in his Salon blog.

  4. Welcome to K-town!
    And it doesn't matter how good a politician is -- and I haven't seen anything yet to judge Obama's skills at this, one way or the other -- if our business is going to enable this swill, you drown in it.

    Yeah, Greenwald's always great.

    This blog has a good post featuring GOP crooks -- but don't question their patriotism!

    One fucking weekend. Nine months out.
    It doesn't matter how "skilled" a politician is. It really doesn't.

    Michelle Obama's statement does warrant further explanation if you accept the new found idea that we are voting for a co presidency.
     
  8. No, it really doesn't.

    Tough politics is more effective when you're not personally vulnerable to responses in kind -- regarding virtually ALL of the shit you're slinging.

    People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw paving blocks -- no matter their gender.
     
  11. Horseshit.
    And you can quote me.
    Every politician's house is glass, by these standards. And what are we talking about in this instance? HRC is saying that Obama is misleading people about her record on NAFTA. And she's doing it, glorioski!, in the state where it might do her the most good and where Obama's attacks, and that's what they are, might do her the most harm. Wherever are my smelling salts?

    It's mental masturbation on her part, Fens.

    She's flinging Hail Marys, and he's refuting them as if swatting away flies -- and it's been about that easy.

    Tomorrow night will be another pathetic embarassment, unless BO suffers some sort of brain cramp. And away we go.
