It is opined that Bill Clinton committed racist hate crimes, and I am not free to say anything further about it.

Besides, who the hell wants Hillary’s brand of experience anyhow? The Andrew Sullivan quote is the perfect distillation of her character: “She’s Dick Cheney in a pant suit”.

And if Hillary really wants more experience in the white house, then she should bow out and endorse Dodd.

I’ve watched Charlie Rose for a long time and I’ve never heard him inflect his voice like that…Even Charlie could see through Bubba’s BullSh#t.

Then Bubba compares Obama to a plumber/chef while Hillary is a surgeon…the inherent racism…Bubba’s dismissal of Obama’s work prior to the US Senate…

The greatest irony is that I can now relate to the republican hatred of the 90s…dayum-near unimaginable…it’s a visceral anger…just seeing Bubba/Billary on TV.

May we please change the channel? May we please turn the page, close this chapter?

The Hillary people remind me more and more of that line that Ann Richards used against Bush’s father: “He was born on third base and thinks he hit a triple.” Hillary started her career as a candidate for the US Senate because she began with the advantage of inheriting her husband’s enormous political machine and cadres of people who felt that if they did not support her, they would wind up on the wrong side of the President and his large power network. Yet she acts as if she’s been toiling in the political vineyards.
The nerve of the Clintons to suggest that it’s Obama who has not paid his dues.

Oh, and Bill of course told a classic little Clintonian lie, when he said that Obama began running “one year” after being sworn it. Some of us wish he started that early, but of course it was two years. In and of itself not a big deal, but emblematic of the fact that the Clintons are so hungry to hold on to power that they feel the need to embellish and lie even these little details.

These people are disgusting. I don’t know who these dumb negroes are that refuse to vote for Barack, but they need their black cards taken away and quickly!

Suprised this forum would want to compare Obama to the “party of racial politicking” in ANY way.

It turns out this has happened before. The president’s name: Abraham Lincoln

If the Obama Comm’s Team were smart (and that’s an open debate), your suggeston would be a commercial…

Have a blank screen flashing all of the comments of his critics about how someone with his limited experience is ready for the presidency…then the question “Are they right?” then a pregnant pause with a slow fade-in of Abraham Lincoln with Obama saying something like “History says otherwise.”

Most people have been conned can spot a con. And it’s not surprising that those who’ve never been conned, can’t spot one. The con won’t announce himself as such, and the con-job won’t always be readily apparent. But if you acknowledge that cons and con-jobs exist in a myriad of ways, and if you’re willing to be astute and cognizant of it, you might just spot a well-disguised con here and there.

That’s kinda how racism in 2007 works. The racist won’t announce him or herself, and their racism won’t always be readily apparent. But if you’re astute, cognizant and know that it exists in a myriad of ways, you’ll be able to spot it from time to time.

As for the post immediately above, I whole heartedly agree. Obama knows how to stand up to this BS without being angry. Hillary’s laugh and his response to that was an example of that. The laugh itself was condescending and reflective of a larger theme (”ha ha ha, this guy thinks he can be President. He’s black he should be happy being a Senator,”) that’s coming out of the Clinton campaign. I’m sure Obama felt some, understandable, anger at that moment. It’s an anger than blacks must feel every day.

A politician that was less ready for prime time would’ve interrupted Hillary and berated her for not letting him answer the question. Obama let the sad spectacle continue, and then calmly destroyed Hillary with wit. It was an incredible moment. And should Obama go on to be President of the United States, that will be the moment that people look back on as pivotal in his campaign.

We often note that particular detail about Obama’s biography to show that he’s smart and well-qualified. However, it’s more than that.

These forms of “elite discrimination” that are being thrown at Obama the past few weeks are not anything he hasn’t seen before. This is not the first time he has encountered people using a paternalism mentality to try to keep him from getting ahead or dealing with people who reduce all his qualifications and merits down to “he’s only winning because he’s black” or people who try to stoke on people’s fears because he’s black.

He could not have gone to Columbia and Harvard and been as successful as he has been in those environments without being exposed to this and still learning how to come out on top. It’s something many African Americans encounter everyday, especially these “elite forms of discrimination” we’re seeing from the Clintons that black middle-class people who work in the halls of power and privilege encounter and learn to navigate.

The good thing about Obama is that he brilliant enough to know how to navigate it, come out on top, but most importantly still not lose soul. Hallelujah!

So as far as I’m concerned, he is handling all of this perfectly. He knows how to pick and choose his battles. He doesn’t need to hold a press conference on the racial undertones (something the old school black leadership might have done) because I think black people can put two and two together. Bloggers and black radio and other people can do that heavy lifting for him. He just needs to keep talking about the issues, organizing, and keeping his eyes on the prize.

Right now, he’s out of his league. He’d do more good as a VP right now, and THEN he’d have the coronation that Clinton expected.

And I just want to say, it’s all fine and dandy that those of us who actually read blogs are expressing our outrage about this. But please inform your peeps. We know good and well a lot of “us” don’t follow this stuff like we should. This nasty attack on Obama should be a hot topic in every beauty salon, barber shop, and black church. Please, tell Pookie and Keisha what’s going on because we know good and well that they don’t know and will cast a vote for anyone named Clinton.

after 12 years in the arkansas governor’s mansion, and 8 years in the white house, and over 6 years in the senate… the clintons are beginning to show their TRUE COLORS! who does that BOY think he is?!? and what makes him think that he can run against the family that all you Black people should love and adore?

we are now seeing the clintons for what they always have been… condescending, good-ole-boys, who can fake a black southern accent at the mere mention of a black church!

i have to ask the question: who the “fudge” does bill clinton think he is?!? without the Black vote, his wife is persona non-grata!

to be honest, if she wins the nomination, i’m going to have problems voting for hillary… i really am!
