&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;South Carolina may be the end for John Edwards if he comes in third. It seems, once again, he’s displaying his preference for Obama over Hillary. At a campaign event at a predominantly black Baptist church today Edwards said :&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“I must say I was troubled recently to see a suggestion that real change that came not through the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King but through a Washington politician. I fundamentally disagree with that,” Edwards told more than 200 people gathered at a predominantly black Baptist church. ….”Those who believe that real change starts with Washington politicians have been in Washington too long and are living a fairy tale,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;
and,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“As someone who grew up in the segregated South, I feel an enormous amount of pride when I see the success that Senator Barack Obama is having in this campaign,” said Edwards. He the added, with a laugh: “Some days I wish he was having a little less success.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Napolitano and Caskill have endorsed Obama.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Although I didn’t mention that other staffer that passed along e-mail, HRC did fire her. If we want the loosest of definitions and include this as proof that the Clinton campaign itself spread rumors Obama was a Muslim and a terrorist, I guess we’ll have to charge every campaign, b/c it’s impossible to believe there is not, at least, one staffer who pulls something like this. If you want that, fine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You made the express request for me to name the sources in the Clinton campaign, and I did.  I regret that I couldn’t name people higher up.  It’s a bit like trying to investigate the US Attorney scandle in the West Wing, or the Valerie Plame leak in the West Wing.  However stay tuned, because there is going to be a lot more of this kind of thing from the Clinton camp as we head into Sup Tue. in what is a crazily organized primary season.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You’re going to see lightening fast rapid responses to anything fromt the New Hillary Girl campaign or the Right Wing (getting to look like each other which isn’t suprising at all) from here on out.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Mr. Peirce.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Perhaps you should set up your own blog.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I might read it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I tend not to read endlessly repetitive posts from the same dogmatic-sounding person that are seemingly designed to swamp someone else’s blog.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dear Mr./Ms./Mrs. Adie–&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Read the posts. They’re hardly endlessly repetitive.  By the way why do you use this ridiculous letter format to comment here?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you have any comments on actual issues besides critiquing my comments and making suggestions as to what I should do?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had a situation where ole Liberal Hart got&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;verklempt&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; over to whom quotes were attributed and over the parsing of the words intentionally and willfully,so in his or her case (whichever) I adopted copying the whole quote I was responding to so there could be no doubt, but it didn’t stop the perpetual kvetching anyway.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Again, I already mentioned that particular staffer (Shaheen) about the concern trolling (”concern” over the GOP using Obama’s drug use against him).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Although I didn’t mention that other staffer&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;that passed along e-mail, HRC did fire her. If we want the loosest of definitions and include this as proof that the Clinton campaign itself spread rumors Obama was a Muslim and a terrorist, I guess we’ll have to charge every campaign, b/c it’s impossible to believe there is not, at least, one staffer who pulls something like this. If you want that, fine.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There were two other staffers besides Shaheen that I know she fired.  Her husband Bill Clinton has not been fired, but he has been muzzled a bit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bill Clinton is indispensable for Hillary to get votes.  If he were running against her, it’d be over before it started.  So the HIllay campaign knows that they have to dutifully trot out Bill who can pull in more votes than she can by far, and now keep Chelsea on the trail with the New Hillary.  I do believe the Clinton campaign, as I said, will not get neutrality from the highest ranked Black American Congressman in South Carolina James Clyburn.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;You DID attribute the quote to me. See post 93 for one example of when you did. And you DID put the word “intentionally” into the quote where I did not write it. And whether “intentionally” and “wilfully” mean the same thing is beside the point. The phrase to which you added “intentionally” was not where I had used the word “wilfully”. I was talking about two different things in those two different phrases: one concerned the info you posted, the other concerned your comprehension of the responses you were getting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;LHP and I have written about the Rezko situation’s potential for posing a problem for the Obama campaign. We have not launched an attack on Obama. You keep asking for proof of statements we haven’t made, then you’re surprised when we don’t provide it. Now you’re doing the same thing regarding Fitz. This makes meaningful discussion not just difficult, but impossible. I won’t be responding to you again. I’ll just sit back and read the arguments you’re having with phantom posts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;LHP and I have written about the Rezko situation’s potential for posing a problem for the Obama campaign.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I’ve countered that the Rezco situation won’t pose a problem for Obama.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But you still have the fictional Muslim school education in Jakarta that Hillary campaign workers actually did circulate an email on that I’ve nailed above, or you can groove on Obama’s smoking joints/trying coke and shudder booze  when he was a kid.  There are plenty of right wing blogs that you can read until November and rhapsodize over.  But in the rhapsody they are forgetting that McCain, Romney, or Huckabee aren’t going anywhere in the general.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’ve made it crystal clear 5 times that I attribute the quote about Obama getting a money laundered interest free loan to LHP.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Obama Money Laundering =LHP’s accusation with no backup&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Obama=trouble over Rezco trial Liberal Heart with not one substantive word and a couple goofey news articles trying to tie the buying of Obama’s home and adjacent land from Rezco (either Rita or Tony) to Liberal Heart&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope that’s clear enough for you.  You mistook my attributing the quote to you because I referred simply to LHP’s referring me to a comment by you that I found went and goes nowhere.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can keep posting that I’ve attributed the quote to you but I haven’t.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I do attribute to both of you that you’re beating a dead, dead horse.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If either of you, I know you have, I think LHP has been coy about the candidate she backs, think Edwards is in good position fine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’d like his delegates for Obama, and I’m not going to guess back room deals, and where super delegates will go, but I beleive if Edwards can deliver delegates he will deliver them to Obama.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don’t think Edwards has much chance to win the nomination now.  He may be on the ticket with Obama.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A couple threads ago I equated the word intentionally to willfully.  I got tired of going back to the other thread where you strung together all kinds of goofey assumptions lifted from a couple newspaper articles in Right Winged news articles, and the same kind of scrambled syllogisms I’ve seen on right wing blogs and Hillary44 blogs for months now, hoping that since Edwards and Hillary can’t be Obama vote wise in states where voting machines aren’t Diebold, that they might be able to Rezco him out of the race.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think it’s fair to say that LHP thinnks Obama could be Rezco’d out of the race by Ole Fitzy and loyal Bushie girl scout  Amy St. Eves, they of the Northern District of Illinois.   I’ll make the distinction between LHP hoping this will happen, and thinking it could. How’s that?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can site many examples where Bushie judges and Bushie prosecutors have gone after Democrats right before an election to try to influence the outcome of the election.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are in the era of Soprano DOJ, with Sylvio Dante Mukasey at the helm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In case you missed it we had a US Attorney Scandle that Clongress has stopped investigating.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They held Rove, Miers, and Bolten in contempt if you take the actions of both SJC and HJC and after months, neither body has taken the next step to take the contempt citations to the floor for a vote, because the step after that is for the Bushian D.C. U.S. Attorney to prosecute them and that won’t happen.  Congress could legally jail them in the basement of the Senate, but I don’t look for that to happen soon either.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I imagine Bush would send out the Navy and the Army he has left in the states, (he’s pretty much out of National Guard) to block the arrest by the Senate.  Maybe Bush would launch an airstrike on the Senate to keep his girl Harriet from being arrested.  *g*&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Besides moaning, and whining, and kvetching about who you think I attributed a quote to when I’ve said several times who said what and quoted LHP correctly, and kvetching about the use of the word intentional for willful (*g*) you keep parsing the difference between intentional and willful.  I’m sorry I don’t have the superior education you do, but they mean pretty much the same and I was explicit–I quoted you and you said “willful.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why don’t you sit back like LHP seems to be doing, and watch your boy Fitzy and your girl Amy White Water girl scout do their thing over in the Northern District of Illinois.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By the time &lt;em&gt;Voir Dire &lt;/em&gt;is over, and opening statements have begun in Rezco’s first trial (DOJ will keep coming back and trying to convict Rezco if they don’t bring him down this time–that’s the way of a good Bushie, and we have the Feiger trial as well), and Fitz gives his opening statements, and Amy St.White Water Girl Scout has made a few FRE rulings for the government, Obama will have beaten Edwards and Hillary girl in Super Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have gotten some real grins out of your surrealistic mozaic of Rezco on trial/Obama bad man/Obama have trouble.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Keep collecting those Chicago newspaper clippings.  If you really want to groove on the trial, you could order dailys from the Court Reporter.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Again, I already mentioned that particular staffer (Shaheen) about the concern trolling (”concern” over the GOP using Obama’s drug use against him).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Although I didn’t mention that other staffer that &lt;em&gt;passed along e-mail&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;HRC did fire her&lt;/strong&gt;.  If we want the loosest of definitions and include this as proof that the Clinton campaign itself spread rumors Obama was a Muslim and a terrorist, I guess we’ll have to charge every campaign, b/c it’s impossible to believe there is not, at least, one staffer who pulls something like this.  If you want that, &lt;em&gt;fine&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;You DID attribute the quote to me. See post 93 for one example of when you did. And you DID put the word “intentionally” into the quote where I did not write it. And whether “intentionally” and “wilfully” mean the same thing is beside the point. The phrase to which you added “intentionally” was not where I had used the word “wilfully”. I was talking about two different things in those two different phrases: one concerned the info you posted, the other concerned your comprehension of the responses you were getting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;LHP and I have written about the Rezko situation’s potential for posing a problem for the Obama campaign. We have not launched an attack on Obama. You keep asking for proof of statements we haven’t made, then you’re surprised when we don’t provide it. Now you’re doing the same thing regarding Fitz. This makes meaningful discussion not just difficult, but impossible. I won’t be responding to you again. I’ll just sit back and read the arguments you’re having with phantom posts.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Dear Mr. Peirce.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Perhaps you should set up your own blog.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I might read it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I tend not to read endlessly repetitive posts from the same dogmatic-sounding person that are seemingly designed to swamp someone else’s blog.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;The Judge in the Rezco case, Amy St. Eves, is a loyal Bushie, who got her reward of the bench in the Northern District of Illinois after working for Ken Starr and directly with Ray Jahn on the failed White Water Prosecution that cost taxpayers $60 million at least, and possibly more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Correction:  Mistype  Amy St. Eves of course got her reward for working on  White Water for Ray Jahn and Ken Starr by being appointed to the Northern district of Illinois bench.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This puts her in prime position to schedule the timing of the Rezco trial during the heat of the primary.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
