About 40 minutes into the debate, I noticed what might be described as the converse phenomenon: that this woman really doesn’t have a sense of humor. And if she thinks something is funny, or “fun,” as she sometimes puts it, it is pretty reliably a signal to the rest of us that something distasteful or outright disgusting is afoot.

I mention this not because I think it is important or even particularly interesting to psychoanalyze Clinton’s personality, but because I want to try to understand why a woman this self-assured, this manifestly competent in many ways, this ferocious at defending her corner and putting her passions on the line, is at the same time hurtling toward political self-destruction at warp speed.

Personally, I prefer the image of a house dropping on her.

Speaking from his Kentucky office in Dawson Springs, the Imperial Wizard exclaimed that anything or anyone is better than having that "crazy ass bitch" as President.

I realize Obama supporters don't like to read the truth about their candidate, and who can blame them? After eight years of destructive Republican policies, the desperation for some actual change -- even if it is only an illusion -- is certainly understandable. But it is because desperation can lead to making serious mistakes in an election year critical to America's future that it is important for Democrats to know exactly who it is we're prepared to hand the nomination to. Barack Obama simply is not a progressive, he's just another DINO who has somehow managed to fool a lot of people.

Once I started looking at the votes Obama actually cast, I began to hear his rhetoric differently. The principal conclusion I draw about “change” and Barack Obama is that Obama needs to change his voting habits and stop pandering to win votes. If he does this he might someday make a decent candidate who could earn my support. For now Obama has fallen into a dangerous pattern of capitulation that he cannot reconcile with his growing popularity as an agent of change.

I remain impressed by the enthusiasm generated by Obama’s style and skill as an orator. But I remain more loyal to my values, and I’m glad to say that I want no part in the Obama craze sweeping our country.

What really frightens the Right about Obama.

I, too, believe in First Amendment rights, even for those whose stupid views I respectfully disagree with, but, jeez, can’t they shut up about it already? These ingrates don’t care that by using the civil liberties our brave soldiers and uncounted mercenaries are killing thousands in Iraq to protect, they’re playing right into the terrorists’ hands, the very ones who hate us for the freedoms we used to have.

It’s obvious: We either fight them over there, or fight us over here. Since we’re much closer to ourselves, we’ll save billions in travel expenses alone. VRHTPA makes it easy for every American, young or old, to become personally involved in fighting the scourge of terrorism.
