Here is PROOF she played the assassination card:

[MethuenProgressive]

From http://www.racewire.org/archives/2007/05/michelle_obama_for_president.html:

When asked if she’s concerned about Obama being assassinated because of his race and position, Mrs. Obama said: “as a Black man, he could get shot at a gas station.”

18. RFK Jr. says you are mistaken to take offense.

RFK, Jr. On Hillary's Remarks
By Big Tent Democrat, Section Off Topic
Posted on Fri May 23, 2008 at 08:39:14 PM EST

“I’ve heard her make that argument before,” Mr. Kennedy said, speaking on his cell phone as he drove to the family compound in Hyannis for the holiday weekend. “It sounds like she was invoking a familiar historical circumstance in support of her argument for continuing her campaign.” . . . is support of Mrs. Clinton has not wavered.
More from RFK, Jr.:

I have heard her make this reference before, also citing her husband's 1992 race, both of which were hard fought through June. I understand how highly charged the atmosphere is, but I think it is a mistake for people to take offense."

this is about Hillary using a candidates assasination to justify her staying in the race.

58. Why does the BO camp suddenly hate RFK?

Statement from the Argus Leader

The Argus Leader’s Executive Editor Randell Beck issued the following statement today:

"The context of the question and answer with Sen. Clinton was whether her continued candidacy jeopardized party unity this close to the Democratic convention. Her reference to Mr. Kennedy's assassination appeared to focus on the timeline of his primary candidacy and not the assassination itself."

[mckeown1128]

62. The BO camp suddenly hates RFK?!!!

Really? What did Obama say about RFK?

Hillary is the one who thinks RFK's death is a good talking point. (she has used it several times)

[QC]

67. "As a troll I wouldn't expect you to." -- LOL! Post of the day! n/t

[AuntPatsy]

40. His words have everything to do with it, are you kidding me?

Do you believe he is lying? If not then your forced to believe that hurting Obama was NOT her intent...decisions, decisions.

[mckeown1128]

52. Again... RFK Jr. doesn't magically nullify the situation.

The comments weren't offensive to the memory of RFK. They were offensive to Obama and his supporters that she is implying that she should stay in because RFK was assassinated (and thusly someone else could be assasinated..wink wink)

I never said anything about RFK JR. lying. I think he is wrong.

[durrrty libby]

124. WOW BOBots really have no comprehension skills. Frightening

[martymar64]

128. Great comeback, Sirhan

[MethuenProgressive]

138. "Sirhan"?

That's a truly disgusting 'comeback' - but if scoring pretend 'points' on an Internet bulletin board keeps you off the streets, it's a price we'll have to accept.

[goclark]

63. Wasn't he a child when his father was killed?

My husband was at the hotel for the Party that night and many of my friends.
They never got over the horror.

[Leopolds Ghost]

82. Yes, and he obviously doesnt give a shit if it happens again which is why he's no crusading populist

unlike his father.

[MethuenProgressive]

139. There goes RFK Jr, thrown under the BO Bus!

Half the Party is now 'dead to you'...

[goclark]

146. Is RFK Jr. planning to run for her seat in NY

if she lies her way to the WH?

A child of one of the politicians is looking forward to being Sen. from NY.

[cali]

83. he was a teenager when his dad was killed.

[Leopolds Ghost]

80. And yet you are attacking Michelle Obama for warning against this kind of rhetoric

directed at her husband.

Some HRC supporters secretly hope Michelle is right. that's the whole point!!!!

[Leopolds Ghost]

81. It sounds like RFK Jr. is implying that Obama suffering RFK's fate is just par for the course.

You're not even supposed to talk about it, the best part of this man
(RFK Jr.) is not fit to have crawled down his father's leg.

[MethuenProgressive]

95. What a silly, unreleated to reality, bogus comment to make.

Are you OK?

[Changenow]

112. The insult was to Obama, not RFK. nt

[MethuenProgressive]

115. Saying that primary races traditionaly last into June is an "insult"? How so?

The Followers are really reaching with this latest piece of Hate.

[SaveOurDemocracy]

121. K&R

:kick:

[PoliticalAmazon]

137. RFK Jr has his opinion. He supports Hillary, and that is also his opinion...

I can't understand him continuing to support Hillary after she pimped his father's assassination for campaign purposes, but that's just me.

My father devoted his life to his family. He taught us loyalty to family by his own devoted loyalty to us. If my father had been murdered for political purposes, and a politician pimped his death for a cheap political point, I would have stood up for my father's legacy and called out the pimp politician.

But that's just me. RFK Jr is obviously different. Not good or bad. Just different.

[havocmom]

2. I knew a white bigot who got shot at a gas station

Hillary has a rather narrow view or she is sowing the seeds of hatred and violence.

But you Hillary people blame him for everything from dry rot to the plague, so I'm not surprised.

[bhikkhu]

76. You are playing follow the sociopathic leader, today again

She suggests that she should stay in the race because her competitor might be assassinated, and then she would win the nomination.

Mock all you will...the leader you follow has no conception of what it is to lead.

[MethuenProgressive]

151. Your Leader says you are wrong. It's your duty to Follow.

[CaptJasHook]

102. Alerting only hides the twisted thinking of irrational Hillaryis44ers

103. Twisted thinking: "races historically go into June" = "Hillary wants BO killed"

Twisted Karl Rove/Donna Brazile hate speech.

[SwampG8r]

105. no i think its time to drag you

out into the daylight and see if you catch fire
kicked so people can see how low hillary shills will go

[AuntPatsy]

35. Can you explain what kind of person you think he is?

I'm serious, I can't watch the video, can someone please explain it for me?

[Bjorn Against]

45. It was a 60 minutes interview and Michelle was asked if she worried about assassination...

She gave a response that she thought about it but never lost any sleep because Obama could get shot going to the gas station. There was no "assassination card" played, the interviewer asked her if she worried about assassination, she gave a response and her response was basically "don't worry about it".

[AuntPatsy]

49. I'm really sorry, I lived through President Kennedy's assasination

though I was young, I recall my family visiting his grave as soon as they allowed the public to properly mourn, I remember Bobby, I'm really sorry, but this attack on Hillary is not right, its just not right, at no time did she ever suggest that Obama could be done in, I don't wish to say the word next to his name, gives me the creeps..

But enough already , hate if you want, but at least be honest in your hate

[Bjorn Against]

54. If you are going to accuse me of being hateful and dishonest then tell me what I said...

I simply told you the content of the video that was posted as you requested, is there any facts in my post that you want to dispute? If you are going to accuse me of being dishonest then I want to know which part of my post was dishonest? Which part was hateful? If you can't answer that then I think we know who is really being dishonest.

[AuntPatsy]

74. Hmmmm, I am sorry, kind of losing steam, if I offended you I seriously meant

no harm, I just wish the irrational ugliness from far to many would just go away and not you were not either,..

[Leopolds Ghost]

84. Someone who MOCKS Michelle Obama as an "emotional black woman" for fearing her husbands safety

And views the subject as so improbable as to be a joking matter worth
discussing in polite company alongside other unlikely scenarios for a
Hillary nomination.

12. too many wild berries in the woods...sad old man, mp.

[SwampG8r]

108. watch em squirm forks

[Leopolds Ghost]

85. Yes, MethuenProgressive is mocking the idea of Obama's safety

Saying the only people who are worried about Obama's safety
are an "emotional black woman" who presumably meets all the definitions
of a stereotypical "crazy black woman" whom MP would never
vote for. I mean, rural gas stations dangerous to a black man?
Come on! Why next Michelle will be claiming MLK's death was a
hate crime and not some random slaying!

"It's not an issue, running for President is dangerous business!"
the Hillary shills will say. "Michelle is looking for a scapegoat...
Gas stations are dangerous places!"

Hillary will take her chances because she knows the RW and Media
value her life (as an unpopular figurehead of the opposition party)
far more highly than that of any black man.

[MethuenProgressive]

99. I mock the silly hate-controlled flipping out over nothing by the DUbamas

She was giving examples of contests that lasted into June.
Only the wickedly perverted Hate goons could try to sell that as "hoping BO is killed."

[cyndensco]

16. There is a big difference. But you know that.

Michelle was referring to random violence. Random violence, unfortunately, is something (black) men have to deal with on a daily basis.

Your candidate referred to directed violence. Obama is ahead, he IS (going to be) the democratic nominee, and your candidate is suggesting she stay in the race because, "you know, anything can happen."

I certainly hope your candidate isn't wishing it on him, but I would not put it past her. As you told me before, pay attention.

[kid a]

19. don't waste your time. mp is an extreme fanatic - he'll be gone in a few weeks

[MethuenProgressive]

23. You "would not put it past her" to wish Obama was killed?

Your candidate referred to directed violence. Obama is ahead, he IS (going to be) the democratic nominee, and your candidate is suggesting she stay in the race because, "you know, anything can happen."

I certainly hope your candidate isn't wishing it on him, but I would not put it past her.Text

She was talking about the race lasting til June. Your spin is insulting to the memory of RFK.

[cyndensco]

28. She said her husband was running until June.

She then said RFK was running in June but was assassinated. We know she cannot possibly (or logically) think she will pull it out in June as her husband did. What is left?

My spin is not an insult to RFK. If it is an insult, it is to your candidate.

[CreekDog]

17. I don't know you, all I know are your posts

I'm glad I don't know you.

[OzarkDem]

41. Truth hurts, eh?

[CreekDog]

48. Don't know you either

all i know is what you do here --beat up on the likely nominee.

and i'm glad i don't know you.

[OzarkDem]

68. Link?

Your candidate is a person, like everyone else. He's inexperienced, has weak public policy, is unprepared to serve and is running a nasty divisive campaign.

If you have a problem with it, defend it or take it up with him.

[CreekDog]

90. your candidate is a person too

with weaknesses too.

unlike you, if Hillary had the same number of votes and delegates as Obama does now, I would be defending her and trying to get other people to vote for her --UNLIKE YOU.

that's the difference. i simply want a Democrat to win in November, and by now I'm not going to undermine the likely nominee. you are quite happy to do that.

[thewiseguy]

21. It was nice not knowing you. Bye.

34. Let's compare outrages eh?

Obama possibly snubbing a Hillary handshake during the state of the union =freakout, calls of sexism, point by point analysis of the 3 pictures of the "event"

Hillary using a candidates assasination as a talking point for why should stay in the race = eh... no big deal



You guys/gals are jumping the shark...big time.

[MethuenProgressive]

43. HRC was talking about races lasting til June. Gave two examples. MO talks about BO getting shot.

The pretend lack of reading skills by the BOs today shames them.

[mckeown1128]

51. What did RFK's ASSASSINATION have to do with the examples...

There have been dozens of candidates who have campaigned through June Reagan in 76, Teddy in 80, Mondale in 88 etc...

If she wanted to use RFK.. she could have just said RFK cam pained into June. But she didn't say that. She said he was assassinated in June. What the hell did his assassination have to do with her giving examples of campaigns going into June.

[MethuenProgressive]

55. Statement from Hillary Clinton, transcript of comment BO's camp is faking outrage over:

"Earlier today I was discussing the Democratic primary history and in the course of that discussion mentioned the campaigns that both my husband and Senator Kennedy waged in California in June 1992 and 1968 and I was referencing those to make the point that we have had nomination primary contests that go into June.
That’s a historic fact. The Kennedys have been much on my mind the last days because of Senator Kennedy and I regret that if my referencing that moment of trauma for our entire nation, and particularly for the Kennedy family was in any way offensive. I certainly had no intention of that, whatsoever. My view is that we have to look to the past and to our leaders who have inspired us and give us a lot to live up to, and I’m honored to hold Senator Kennedy’s seat in the United States Senate from the state of New York and have the highest regard for the entire Kennedy family."

Transcript from the Argus-Leader's editorial board meeting:

HRC: People have been trying to push me out of this ever since Iowa.

Q: Why?
HRC: I don't know. I don't know. I find it curious. Because it is unprecedented in history. I don’t understand it. Between my opponent and his camp and some in the media there has been this urgency to end this. And historically, that makes no sense. So I find it a bit of a mystery.

Q: So you don't buy the party unity argument?

HRC: I don’t because again I've been around long enough.
My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right?

We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it. There's lots of speculation about why it is.

Q: What is your speculation?

HRC: I don't know. I find it curious. And I don't want to attribute motives or strategies to people because I don't really know, but it's a historical curiosity to me.

Statement from the Argus Leader

The Argus Leader’s Executive Editor Randell Beck issued the following statement today:

"The context of the question and answer with Sen. Clinton was whether her continued candidacy jeopardized party unity this close to the Democratic convention. Her reference to Mr. Kennedy's assassination appeared to focus on the timeline of his primary candidacy and not the assassination itself."

[mckeown1128]

60. She didn't mention RFK campaigning in June...

she mentioned him getting assassinated in June. Big difference. What does his assassination have to do with campaigns going on through June? (and yes I understand he was assassinated on the campaign trail)

[MethuenProgressive]

64. "We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California." You think he was surfing?

Maybe visiting Disneyland?

[mckeown1128]

70. Again what did that fact that he was assassinated have to do with Hillary's answer to the question?

If she was just pointing to examples of previous people who happened to campaign in June...why didn't she do that. Instead she mentions that candidates have gotten assassinated in June.

[martymar64]

117. Why use him as an example at all?

BTW, your screenname has been given to the Secret Service. They might have a few questions for you.

[SwampG8r]

110. and shes lying to boot

or is it just mis speaking again
bill was done before june in 92 it was 96 that he was still out in june

[SwampG8r]

109. first lady michelle obama was

answering a direct question on the subject of assasination and stated her husband could get shot right now just for being in a gas station

hillary has refrenced rfk 3 times total attached to the "anything could happen" theme

its apples and oranges

and your apples?
they are full of worms

[tranche]

32. Go back to defending Hillary's statements.

That looked stupid, but at least it was less stupid that what you're doing now.

[AuntPatsy]

33. Obama's wife said this about her husband?

[OzarkDem]

38. Yes

[MethuenProgressive]

39. Yep. The youtube link is in the OP.

But what I've done is mock the "outrage" of today's hysterical silliness.

[AuntPatsy]

46. Join the club, I have finaly earned ignores from people, took three

years for such to occur, makes you wonder what is going on...

If she said that, when we all know Sen Clinton did NOT speak those words than she is the quilty one like it or not that is deserving of all this outrage...


Sen Clinton is no angel and she should be called on some things but this? If the video is correct, and his own wife stated something like that the outrage on what Sen Clinton said yesterday no longer holds water in that it cannot be used to bash her yet again...

[Political Heretic]

87. Honestly, believe me or don't, but I just don't see the connection.

Q: Are you worried about your husbands safety?
A: No more than usual.

How does that compare with

Q: why are you still in the race?
A: Because Obama might still get shot in the head.

???

[SwampG8r]

111. a direct response to a direct question

is not the same as making it a stump speech item

[Divine Discontent]

53. WOW...

so inappropriate - Obama is not like the criminal element that gets shot at gas stations... scary wording by her. Sometimes I think she needs to not speak for him... just my opinion. my best friend said the same thing about a different issue (the one about being only proud of her country for the 1st time ever b/c of Obama doing well, that doesn't play well with most people, just an opinion)

[CreekDog]

57. random violence against black men

doesn't imply that the victims have done anything wrong. i can't count how many honors students who were black have been murdered at random in various parts of San Francisco.

but you don't know what you're talking about --not that the ignorance stopped you.

[Divine Discontent]

75. like random violence doesn't happen to all colors - good grief - that's why

she's not the candidate. I saw a little white girl got hit with a stray bullet recently. I've seen Spanish, Asian, Caucasian people being the victim of random violence a lot on the news, too!

And, saying for the first time that she's proud of her country - when her husband is trying to run for president is a HORRIBLE mistake... there's generations of people who's families have fought and or died in battle to defend this country and they take something like that from her as a horrible insult! Even if she feels it personally, it should not be spoken because her husband's going to be running against a war hero.

Saying crap like that again will harm his chances. I just asked 3 people if they heard of it, all 3 had, and they don't like her, which I did not know. She's a liability if she keeps doing that, and we need him in the White House in the worst way after 8 years of dumbass.

Your final sentence was childish.

[CreekDog]

89. black men are far more likely to be the vitctims of random violence

than any other group. that was the point. i was hoping you knew that, but you didn't.

which means that i guess my last sentence was correct, if not childish.

[Divine Discontent]

130. I disagree

the only reason Barack is at risk is because he's running for president. Before this he was no more likely to be injured or killed by random violence at a gas station in a bad part of town than any other white person that lived in the area who worked there.

Random violence occurring more to people of his color is a result of population of those areas being more black. So, it does not mean a man of his moral strength who isn't involved in pimping, drug trading, hustlin' of any sort is any more likely to get hurt by gunfire than a Caucasian/Indian/Spanish/Asian man or woman who frequents the same places as much as he would.

I'm 100% behind Obama's candidacy, it's just comments like these are what scare off a lot of white voters - people that I got to vote for Kerry last time over the SOB. This time, nearly half of them are saying they feel better with McCain - that is aggravating. I haven't heard much from her lately - perhaps she's learning.

[CreekDog]

134. i don't think what she said was screened for primetime either

it's not what i would have said, but they asked her a question and that was her answer, it is defensible, even if not 100%, nevertheless, she's not running for president.

but what i was taking issue with was the suggestion that she said Obama was at risk because of things he might be doing that would make him a more likely target (like he was into drugs or hanging with the wrong crowd). take a look at the string of posts that prompted mine and you will see the context i was arguing against that was posted by one in particular here.

[Divine Discontent]

148. ah! yes.

I think all will be well again, a few weeks after the agitator has dropped out in a few days (how I pray). I realize I have no idea how BADLY I would do interviews and off the cuff quick-hit questions. I commend them for doing their best, even Hill (no, not really, lol). I also realize this is their first go at a national race, as most candidates typically have tried before or had connections being involved in it (Hill's with Bill), so they're going to flub a lil.

On to the White House!

[hokies4ever]

98. You need to visit certain gas stations in this country

and you'll understand what she's talking about. I've been to a few gas stations in DC where I bet you would be too scared to even get out of your car.

[Divine Discontent]

129. exactly - ANY race can get killed at these places

I've been at them, too! As were other white people. I went to some stations in downtown Atlanta where it felt like at any moment gunfight might break out and, everyone seemed hyper-alerted to the fact of where they were at. I understand what she's saying, but it can happen to anyone is all I'm saying.

[Changenow]

113. Exactly.

MO's comment is absolutely unrelated to Hillary's new strategy to win the nomination.

This shows how desperate they are.

[BenDavid]

59. Barack can get shot going to the gas station,” Michelle Obama said

and in the interview, Obama’s wife plays race card on ‘60 Minutes’. And does anyone think Obama pumps his own gas? I don’t think so….she comes off as some militant black woman that would never miss an opportunity to slam the US.

And about the HRC statement I will just add Robert Kennedy Jr.'s words. "I’ve heard her make that argument before,” “It sounds like she was invoking a familiar historical circumstance in support of her argument for continuing her campaign.” . More from RFK, Jr.:

I have heard her make this reference before, also citing her husband's 1992 race, both of which were hard fought through June. I understand how highly charged the atmosphere is, but I think it is a mistake for people to take offense."

Well - if RFK's namesake is not upset with Hillary and understands what she was trying to say- maybe some of you should CHILL!

OK, so she didn't mean it the way it comes across to many people, that she was simply trying to show other past races haven't been won until June (that's the argument, right?).

So why even bring up RFK or 1968? It's a poor analogy.
In 1968 the first primary - NH, wasn't held until MARCH. Only THREE months and 13 Primaries were completed before California, compared with FIVE months and 28 primaries in 2008.

Big difference wouldn't you say?

73. Another Kick to show the OPs brilliant personality.

[MethuenProgressive]

94. Thanks! I openly mock the HillHater's twisted "logic" of hate!

Mock, mock, mock.

[CaptJasHook]

77. Last kick of the night for MPs " wisdom"

[MethuenProgressive]

92. HillHaters twist a comment about June into a Death Wish for BO - gleefully

That's not wisdom, that's ignorance on a grand scale.
Thanks for the kick.

101. My pleasure, anything to expose darkness to the light.

79. Proof that political speech has found new levels of stupidity:

The need to place "card" and "-gate" after proper nouns and inflammatory words in order to describe a far more complex issue.

[Political Heretic]

86. The assassination "card" - that word is starting to get pretty overused, I feel.

[mainer]

88. The difference: Michelle's worried. Hillary's hopeful.

Michelle has nightmares about assassination.

Hillary's hopeful dreams all DEPEND on it happening.

That's a major difference, isn't it?

[MethuenProgressive]

93. Only the truly twisted can play this into "hope for BO's death"

Twisted minds.

[mainer]

142. Assassination IS her only hope.

Essentially, that's her explanation for why she's staying in. Because "anything could happen."

[MethuenProgressive]

143. That's a really sick thing to believe.

I feel sorry for you.

[mainer]

147. Then feel sorry for a lot of people. Because I'm not the only one.

And there are a lot of us.

[MethuenProgressive]

149. A lot of people were manipulated by the Obama camp and the MSM.

I feel sorry for them.

[rodeodance]

156. yes, only twisted minds would say/assume/repeat that vile meme.

[ProSense]

96. Pure Hillary apologist's BS

"When asked if she’s concerned about Obama being assassinated... "

People who raise assassination are attempting to play up fear.

[MethuenProgressive]

100. Only those perverted by Hate could twist "June" into "She Wants BO killed"

I mock them from a great height.

114. "Your bile and thinly-veiled racism is pathetic." Bingo! The DUbama's Godwin's Law Invoked!

"thinly-veiled racism"
Sweetie, BO is whiter than I am.
Your constant chant that "all who don't fall to their knees are racists" is what is truly "pathetic,"

[CaptJasHook]

125. Watch that "Sweetie" MP, that is sexist according to your own kind.

[CaptJasHook]

126. Oh, and another kick, BTW

[PBS Poll-435]

[CreekDog]

132. there's a card for that?

:shrug:

[MrsT]

133. So what?

Hillary said something stupid, and has apologized for it. Can you admit it was stupid? People like you are no help to Sen. Clinton's cause.

[CaptJasHook]

135. Oops, almost forgot. Kick
