'bout time the Clinton-Bush dynasty got called out for just what they are.


IT IS TRIBUNAL TIME IN AMERICA - AND HAS BEEN SINCE DEC 12, 2000

[Uncle Sinister]

1. If I hear "Bush/CLinton dynasty" one more time I'm gonna fuckin scream!

It negates and invalidates ANYTHING that follows, follow?

[understandinglife]

3. Then let's try Clinton-Bush DYNASTY ... follow ....

And, while you're screaming, count all the millions of Iraqi's who've been screaming as they burn, as their children burn, as their homes burn .... for starters ... that's something worthy of a scream or two ....

11. Well, if Mark Penn can't tell them apart, how in the hell are we supposed to be able to?

Edwards aide Jonathan Prince: "Tonight change won, and the status quo lost it."

Obama aide Robert Gibbs: "It's the Clinton argument from 1992, change versus more of the same. Only she's on the other side."

Clinton aide Ann Lewis: "Presidents don't get to vote present."

Also, a minor slip by Mark Penn, defending himself against anonymous snipers:

The same quotes, he said, "appeared in the paper in 1996 as well, and I helped get President Bush into a successful second term."

He meant Clinton.

2. So what do we call it?

the mutual Clinton-Bush appreciation society? because that's what it really is

Kudos to Olbermann for finally having the stones to call her out. Even he sees the handwriting on the wall apparently.

[DemCam]

4. Really really sorry to hear this

[understandinglife]

5. Bill: "This Campaign Is Playing Out Exactly As I Thought It Would"

Nice Bill ... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/01/07/bill-this-campaign-is-p_n_80341.html



bye, bye ....

6. I couldn't believe it when I heard it tonight. Really cemented my belief that she isn't the right

person for the job. Her line about al-Qaeda could have been written by Dubya's writers.

10. Karl needs the cash for his tribe of defense lawyers ...

:thumbsup:

12. What is not being reported widely yet is what she said about MLK

Apparently she believes it was LBJ who brought about civil rights changes in this country, not Dr. King. Unfuckingelievable.

[mod mom]

7. Ouch...saw that. I actually started to feel sorry for her but then I thought of

the poor people of East Liverpool Ohio and thought-bad karma.

8. Yes. I do not wish her ill feelings. I just want her and all like her, out of American leadership.

:hi:

Peace,

9. When will he join the cause and endorse Obama? .eom

[Berry Cool]

13. Never. He doesn't see it as his role to endorse anyone. n/t

[deacon]

14. It's just sickening. Cry over your votes for war, not when you losing an election.

This is kiss my ass infuriating.

[OneGrassRoot]

15. I didn't hear the whole thing, but it seems he slightly dissed Edwards, too...

something to the effect, "I have the greatest respect for Mr. Edwards, but when he was on the show I couldn't get him off message."

I didn't understand that. Did anyone else hear?

Well, at least Edwards was mentioned.
