Rightwing Media. Because You'll Fall for Anything.
It's funny.

A rightwing site claims that Clinton made an innuendo about not liking Obama and some of you eat it up like it was cheesecake while others cry foul.

Then the same site claims that Obama isn't treating Hillary nicely and the roles are reversed.

And none of you see the hypocrisy.

Worse yet, none of you seem to realize that you're being played by two-bit republicans who are right now laughing their asses off at how easily you'll fall for "anonymous senior official" and "unnamed representative".

The rightwing media has no greater joy than when they can divide the supporters of the two most popular Democratic names in politics today, Obama and Clinton.

And some of you are just too willing to help them.

Tonight a great woman is going to appear on that stage to give her support to a great man who has and will continue to support her as a great Democratic leader. They will do this because they both understand the consequences of letting this nation be divided by fear and hatred any longer.

If you support either of them you will do the same.

2. Either too well or not well enough.

Looks like this will sink like every other attempt people have made to knock some sense into the screamers here.

I guess fear and hate win out so it's John McCain in 2008. :(

9. He's right. Hillary reached out to Michelle last night in a gesture of friendship.
Just as Michelle had reached out to her for her work in breaking that glass ceiling for women.

But all it takes is one out of context smear from a rightwing source and the hatemongers go into a frenzy like sharks on chum.

10. I'm kicking this because it so rare that I get proved correct.
Barack Obama spoke with both Hillary and Bill tonight to praise Hillary on her speech and Bill on his choice of Hillary.

This is unity, anonymous sources be Damned!
