69. I am of the impression that if obambi was going to make the remark
about the veterans, he could of at least known for sure how the man was actually related to him(great uncle, not uncle) and exactly what camp his platoon entered.The mediawhores can hype Clinton's one remark on RFK's primary race until it is a bigger story than the China Earthquake. But let's give Obama a pass on every stupid utterance (and there have been many). Pleeeeeease!

He is an empty suit looking for anything that can legitimize himself. He keeps talking about everyone else around him that is great because he has no significant accomplishments himself. This guy is a serious clown that has more "gaffes" than accomplishments.

Right: candidates make gaffes all the time--but let Hillary Clinton just mention the historical fact of RFK's horrifying assassination as a way to highlight her own continued hopes for the nomination and she is crucified by columnists and Obama's campaign. I, for one, am tired of the double standard protecting Obama. As Mr. Obama says repeatedly: "don't attack me, don't attack my family, that's old politics;" but its OK for his campaign--never Mr. Obama himself--to raise allegations of racism or, in the RFK matter, imply strongly that Hillary was hoping--incredibly--for harm to come to Mr. Obama.
