1. Mrs. Goldstein And I Were Watching The Youtubes Again Last Night
It's only funny because she's lost the race. Otherwise it would be terrifying.

2. And I just say, her "apology" was more along the lines of
"so sue me" than "I feel very bad that I told a mistruth".

6. I know those apologies...
Not an "I'm sorry I did it." apology, but an "I'm sorry I got caught." apology.

3. As a Viet Nam veteran, son and nephew of WW2 veterans, I'm perhaps particularly reactive ...
Edited on Sat May-03-08 10:18 AM by TahitiNut
... to the "stolen valor" LIARS and FRAUDS. Such cowardly and self-serving lies not only betray the moral corruption of the liar, they demean those who've behaved coourageously under fire and NEVER attempt to gain personally from such experiences. I know of no true combat veterans who don't vividly recall the gut-wrenching and pants-pissing feelings - feelings that bear virtually no resemblance to the cartoonish bullshit of such faux "Rambo's" like Hillary. The more 'heroic' the experience, the less likely the vet is to speak of it. For DECADES, the loud-mouths have been coworkers and neighbors to true heroes - whom they've ignored at best and dismissed and demeaned at worst.

Hillary showed herself to be in the company of folks like these ...

29. for now.
if Obama's character is successfully killed, guess where the crosshairs will turn next. Any Hillbot who doesn't see this is a fool.

9. Looks like the entire story is getting out
That's the only reason why Team Obama would keep flogging it.

13. I particularly like the video
where you can hear her trying to make it as dramatic as possible. I think it was the time before the last time she said it to the media. She also had that same dramatic tone of voice when she was 'taken aback' by Obama's bitter comments. What a fake!

15. Such "embellishments" are usually confined to adolescents like Bush.
But, what the hell, it's just politics.

“Now, the man on the stand he wants my vote,
He's a-runnin' for office on the ballot note.
He's out there preachin' in front of the steeple,
Tellin' me he loves all kinds-a people.
(He's eatin' bagels
He's eatin' pizza
He's eatin' chitlins
He's eatin' bullshit!)”

Bob Dylan

18. I never thought it was funny.
Lying about dodging bullets isn't something I find amusing. Such an outrageous lie should have ended her run for the presidency.

22. What's even funnier is...
...the belief that Obama hasn't told a lie.

His mother and father meeting at the Selma march...

His father brought over on JFK's airlift...

Not knowing for 20 years Rev Wright was inflammatory and racist...

Saying he doesn't accept money from Lobbyists...

Is that enough for now?
