As much as I believe Hillary would make a great president, I just think it's time to leave the race. She's blown it, as far as I'm concerned, in every conceivable way. <BR/><BR/>However, the "purple heart band-aids" are 100 times more despicable than these "I'm not bitter" stickers. The former is mocking a genuine war hero's contributions and calling him a liar, while the latter is merely disagreeing with (while perhaps taking out of context or misunderstanding) an actual statement made by the opposing candidate. Apples and oranges.Lhyzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18284527304359354892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17324569.post-2123740448895999732008-04-14T13:46:00.000-04:002008-04-14T13:46:00.000-04:00i'd say i'm pretty damn bitter about all these ric...i'd say i'm pretty damn bitter about all these rich #*$(@)!! getting richer while i can barely get by... and seriously, has one word out of clinton's mouth NOT been condescending? i recall during bill's term, she visited this area and went to a local cafe - upon meeting one of the staff who told her he was the baker, she replied "good for you!!". WTF IS THAT??<BR/><BR/>to quote bob shrum on 'meet the press' this past weekend (in regards to obama): "here's a guy who just finished paying his student loans, who was raised by a single mother and his grandparents, who doesn't know what it's like to have $100 million. So I think Senator Clinton has to be a little careful in pushing this because, frankly, she hasn't lived in the real world for 25 years; she's lived in a bubble."The Curiously Dull Minthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01134261046403311968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17324569.post-69178795735669305452008-04-14T12:19:00.000-04:002008-04-14T12:19:00.000-04:00I'm not following where this is a huge verbal gaff...I'm not following where this is a huge verbal gaffe. Is the controversy really over his choice of words? Is there a better word to describe how people are feeling when they're denied opportunities? When they're arbitrarily shut out of desirable experiences?<BR/><BR/>Maybe it's comparable to the irritation I get when someone refers to me as cynical when I'm really being skeptical or starkly realistic about whatever.<BR/><BR/>Still, if you're ticked off because you're getting the shaft and you're getting your face rubbed in it, what do you call it?tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725913733479131257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17324569.post-12082082621150444042008-04-14T11:54:00.000-04:002008-04-14T11:54:00.000-04:00Small town Americans have over 190 million reasons...Small town Americans have over 190 million reasons in the last five years to believe that Hillary is in touch with them.<BR/><BR/>Seriously, though, I think the only thing that upsets small town Americans more than elitist rhetoric is when they are patronized.<BR/><BR/>Don't sell small town America short. Most "simple" folk I've met there have really good BS detectors.
