I could say that that is my opinion, but actually, those are the facts.

You might or might not value those things, but I do.

In friends, such as Norske, and in Presidential candidates.

Citizen Juno:

“…Obama supporters have repeated the claim that Clinton praised McCain and said he would be a better choice than Obama is outlandish.”

To paraphrase a legenardy fascist American President: “there you go again.”

The only thing outlandish about the claim that Clinton praised McCain and said he would be a better choice than Obama is that she made the claim, for God’s sake! This is what has been come to be known as “Clintonism”, that is: make a lethal and outlandish attack on your opponent and then attack you opponent for having the audacity to call you on it! And, might I add, that most of the attacks she makes are against other DEMOCRATS fer Christ sake…why didn’t she say that Obama would make a better president than McCrazy before and not after she said the opposite?

KEEP THE FAITH, THAT SHIT DON’T WORK WITH ME!!

I don’t. It doesn’t.

If Obama is the nominee, I hope he’ll throw the proverbial kitchen sink at McCain. Of course, that’s a predicament since he says he’s against it (even though he does it) and his supporters say they’re against it (even though they do it).

Sigh.

In fact, it is exactly what one should not do to become President …

Mindless, destructive verbiage and dishonorable behavior neither implies competence or character nor commends capacity.

Period.
