118. They are. If Obama was comparing his campaign strategy to RFK's, you would
be calling him "Kennedyesque" and oohing and ahhing about the 21st Century Camelot. And saying, "Oh YES, he IS like RFK...he draws the crowds, he's SUCH an ORATOR!!!"

You wouldn't be accusing him of wanting to wax Clinton. And if anyone suggested it, your crew would get all insulting and pile on with snark.

It wouldn't even enter your mind. Because you'd not have a problem with a MAN comparing himself to another man. But when HRC compares herself to RFK, you can't even SEE it. NO ONE did.

You actually THINK she's comparing OBAMA to RFK, because you have a sexist bias.

How many people here have said, on varying threads, that by her comments, it was apparent that she wished BO harm, or if anything happened SHE'd have blood on her hands?

Those comments by posters here indicated that they actually believed she was comparing RFK to BO. But she wasn't doing that. Not at ALL.

She was comparing RFK to HERSELF.

And that IS the truth. Even RFK Junior says you guys are completely wrong on this.

PS--Repeated use of the word "blathering" does not help your argument, especially when it is YOU doing said blathering. And, apparently, FOAMING as well. See, making snarky little bullshit comments like that don't turn lies into truths. They never have. And they just make you look, well, less than mature in your discourse. If you're trying to be cutting or snarky, that kind of grade school invective does not bother me, because those comments reflect on YOU, you see. And not in a terribly good way.

Ooops. RFK Junior will have to go under that bus, too, eh?
