Preach on Brother Herbert...

Seeds of Destruction
The Clintons have never understood how to exit the stage gracefully.

Their repertoire has always been deficient in grace and class. So there was Hillary Clinton cold-bloodedly asserting to USA Today that she was the candidate favored by “hard-working Americans, white Americans,” and that her opponent, Barack Obama, the black candidate, just can’t cut it with that crowd.

“There’s a pattern emerging here,” said Mrs. Clinton.

There is, indeed. There was a name for it when the Republicans were using that kind of lousy rhetoric to good effect: it was called the Southern strategy, although it was hardly limited to the South. Now the Clintons, in their desperation to find some way — any way — back to the White House, have leapt aboard that sorry train.


Just to clarify... I did say I was going to stay out of the primary decision. THe gas-tax holiday fiasco changed my mind. So I guess I'm a hypocrite

I put my lot in with scientist, doctors, and chemists; who tell me to take medications to help my health. I put my lot in with scientists and engineers every time I walk into a room and flip a switch to turn on a light. I even put my lot in with (gasp) economists, psychologists, physicists, lawyers; and basically anyone who spends a lot of time studying these issues.

Maybe I'm crazy... but I turned in my membership card to the flat earth society years ago. We need leaders who don't use hard working Americans lack of opportunity, time, and money to learn about all the complex issues that modern man now deals in. It was one thing to come out with a plan (which created a null set) but to than attack the opposition for being right on policy (just cause you want to get elected) is how we get ourselves into things like Iraq.
