"So, what's the difference between you and Clinton then?" - Obama's reply: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qUoN-fjvLY

I guess it's just a funny coincidence that the Clinton hatchet men are the "white boys"

gabbneb, Sunday, 23 March 2008 16:55 (eighteen years ago)

Obama's big fairy tale, the press myth re Bill's racial attacks, read about all this and more in Fables of Clinton

gabbneb, Sunday, 23 March 2008 16:56 (eighteen years ago)

Oooh, this sounds like it's going to end with everyone living happily ever after - nice!

In the presidential primary campaign, HRC benefits not just from the demographics of Pennsylvania, but its unique amber-preserved culture.

takes him a while to get on a roll there

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Sunday, 23 March 2008 17:15 (eighteen years ago)

But it's like he's dying to say the difference is character, or something blindingly obvious. Also Gabbneb OTM about Straight Talk Express, why else would McCain get chumsy w/HRC?

suzy, Sunday, 23 March 2008 17:21 (eighteen years ago)

I think that clip of Obama is terribly impressive.

jhøshea, Sunday, 23 March 2008 18:35 (eighteen years ago)

He's the only one not wearing camouflage gear - are those soldiers trying to get him killed?

StanM, Sunday, 23 March 2008 18:37 (eighteen years ago)

I could never forgive Sean Hannity for the way he and Foxnews treated Ron Paul. I dont have cable TV anymore because of it.

Okay THAT made me LOL.

Ned Raggett, Sunday, 23 March 2008 21:43 (eighteen years ago)

that obama clip is great...it does take him a while to get going but that's what's kind of good about it; he's able to slip in lots of passive aggressive stuff while complimenting her

In some ways, Barack Obama's speech on race last week was as brilliant as it was nuanced. But for all its rhetorical beauty, it was also an enormous step backward and, in the end, a rather self-serving call for more discussion about racial grievance in a country that has already done way too much talking.

ughhhhh

Pat Buchanan: We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude?

daily gallup is essential to the 'sport' aspect for those heathens who didn't fill out their brackets.

Hitch:

To have accepted Obama's smooth apologetics is to have lowered one's own pre-existing standards for what might constitute a post-racial or a post-racist future. It is to have put that quite sober and realistic hope, meanwhile, into untrustworthy and unscrupulous hands. And it is to have done this, furthermore, in the service of blind faith. Mark my words: This disappointment is only the first of many that are still to come.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:33 (eighteen years ago)

is that written in english?

dmr, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:42 (eighteen years ago)

wow

That same supposed message of his is also contradicted in a different way by trying to put Geraldine Ferraro on all fours with a thug like Obama's family "pastor." Ferraro may have sounded sour when she asserted that there can be political advantages to being black in the United States—and she said the selfsame thing about Jesse Jackson in 1984—but it's perfectly arguable that what she said is, in fact, true, and even if it isn't true, it's absurd to try and classify it as a racist remark.

dmr, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:50 (eighteen years ago)

trying to put Geraldine Ferraro on all fours

UH

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:51 (eighteen years ago)

Uh, welcome to the part of Obama's speech where he says that calling Ferraro a racist misses the point of her remarks, Hitchens.

HI DERE, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:51 (eighteen years ago)

why does Hitchens still have a job

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:52 (eighteen years ago)

yeah the all fours w/ a thug part was what I was wowing at

dmr, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:52 (eighteen years ago)

He hates religion so much that he sees red instead of black.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:53 (eighteen years ago)

That Hitchens article is full of pernicious nonsense.

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 24 March 2008 18:53 (eighteen years ago)

nothing like completely misinterpreting/misrepresenting a black man's remarks while simultaneously summoning the image of a thuggish black guy raping an old white lady, eh Hitchens

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 24 March 2008 18:54 (eighteen years ago)

Onward and upward: The Obama Doctrine. (analysis of Obama's broader foreign-policy vision)

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 24 March 2008 18:56 (eighteen years ago)

has hitchens always been weird about The Blacks?

gff, Monday, 24 March 2008 19:03 (eighteen years ago)

Imagine if God wore blackface.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 24 March 2008 19:04 (eighteen years ago)

not that I'm gonna defend Hitch, but you guys get at least what he would claim is the meaning of 'all fours with', right?

gabbneb, Monday, 24 March 2008 19:45 (eighteen years ago)

the Oval Office, the ultimate symbol of American democracy

still funny hours later

Gavin, Monday, 24 March 2008 19:55 (eighteen years ago)

I had to look it up:

The legal expression on all fours is defined in Black’s Law Dictionary, Fifth Edition, as 'A phrase used to express the idea that a case at bar is in all points similar to another. The one is said to be on all fours with the other when the facts are similar and the same questions of law are involved'.

o. nate, Monday, 24 March 2008 21:32 (eighteen years ago)

O RLY

Shakey Mo Collier, Monday, 24 March 2008 21:33 (eighteen years ago)

and you guys thought that Hitch had cast Obama's grandma in a Fat Joe video.

Geraldine Ferraro is Obama's grandmother???????

HI DERE, Monday, 24 March 2008 21:51 (eighteen years ago)

I am biased as a Hillary supporter but I have to say this has the ring of truth.
