The "Monster" resignation.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

Pathetic.

The new Spinny Spin.

[monmouth]

1. First David Shuster, now Samantha Powers...Wow, who's next??..n/t

[Cant trust em]

2. Some kid in the 2nd grade is going to get expelled

for calling Clinton a poopface. That kind of talk is disgraceful and tarnishes our national discourse!

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

4. What if it was Delay instead of Clinton?

Does it meet the "threshold?" :shrug:

[Cant trust em]

9. You're saying that if Power called Delay a monster, would she still have resigned?

I don't think so. I felt like the apology was good enough. This whole thing is dumb.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

14. Yes. Agreed.

[LSparkle]

5. I wish he hadn't accepted her resignation ...

HRC's campaign is going to jump on this as another sign of her "strength"
and her ability to get him to cave.

[fadedrose]

8. It's gotta be KO

[rug]

3. Obama fired her. Perception over loyalty.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

6. Agreed.

There will be casualties if you fight Hillary.

Ante up!

[casus belli]

7. Stay classy.

His staff makes a comment that Hillary supporters come out in droves to feign offense about. Then, when he concedes the point and deals with it, you call him out for not being loyal to his staff.

Wake me when it's over.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

11. Personally, I enjoy watching the contortions.

[rug]

18. I know. I've read your analyses.

[Strelnikov_]

12. Amazing, isn't it n/t

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

15. Am I missing something?

:shrug:

[rug]

17. Don't look at me. I didn't fire her.

[Cant trust em]

10. welcome to life under the microscope

such is campaigning.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

13. No worries.

It's a 0.1 on the Richter scale.

Iow, a dinosaur fart.

[casus belli]

19. I figured dino farts or "dinoflatulence" as it's known in the "biz"...

would register slightly higher. Some of them ate alot of greens.

[tekisui]

16. This is good for Obama. He held his promise.

Hillary took the bait, whether the bait was intentional or not, and gave it a self-replicating life. How many times have you heard or read "Monster" today in relation to Hillary? Hillary kept it out there, and now some are looking into the hypocrisy of her campaign likening Obama to rove and starr. The longer this stays out there the more people will associate Hillary as a monster. She could have laughed in off, but she gunned for a great woman.

Hillary lost big on this one. Let's hope it lasts a few more days.

on edit: Power can always come back to join the Obama administration.
