What do these people have in common???
Keith Olbermann
Randi Rhodes
Stephanie Miller
Move-on.org
Michael Moore
Bill Richardson
Ted Kennedy

They have quite vocally spoke out against the War and the Bush Administration when few others would.

They are hated and despised by the Right wing.

They are hated and thrown under the bus by Hillary supporters.

8. Rachel says she's neutral.
Although she will call out Clinton when she bashes another Dem, just as she calls out Obama if he even hints at saying anything negative about Clinton - for instance, when he joked "She thinks she's Annie Oakley!"

Rachel's big hobby horse is that bashing fellow Dems helps elect McCain.

14. At least we're talking about him, thanks for bringing him up.

11. "They are hated and thrown under the bus by Hillary supporters."
You need to insert "some" before Hillary supporters.

18. and being a cultist, when someone dares to criticize your leader
Edited on Mon Apr-21-08 04:28 PM by LSK
You must now hate anyone who dares question the leader.

Do you ever stop and look at yourself in the mirror?

Since when is Hillary Clinton more important than America?

27. Your threats are ridiculous. Go ahead and cut off your nose to
spite your face. That is a choice YOU have to make. To thwart your own interests (Democratic interests) because of chatter on internet message boards, seems to me, to be incredibly foolish and counter-productive.

25. What do Jack Murtha and Joe Wilson have in common?
They both have received numerous hours of media attention for being outspoken about the lies of this administration.... and have said how important it is to vote for Hillary.

Don't give me this crap. Obama supporters have bashed and trashed Elton John!
Elton John - for crissakes :P

29. Should we make a "Thrown under the bus" list for Obama "supporters" too?
