Our Sophie's Choice election |
|
In the beginning, we all felt like Sophie..being forced to choose which child to save and which to doom.
Sophie agonized a lifetime over her choice..
I too, felt sad to have to choose..and did not for a long time, but in the end, one child made the choice possible.
I'll miss the possibility of the lost child, who showed such promise, but who, in the end, went happily on her own, into the abyss..
How could we have known that our talented girl would end up having a Rhoda Penmark streak in her?

it is called campaigning. Honestly people, get a history lesson. Senator Clinton has been |
|
far from the worst presidential candidate.

9. Well unless she is running around saying that Senator Obama is a pedophile |
|
or that he has a kid out of wedlock with someone not of his race...she has just been about as nasty as some of the previous presidents we have had.
Less in many aspects.

8. Yeah that the people who are so freaked out by her being a woman who does |
|
not stand idly by while her dream is destroyed by a guy who I, for one, still have huge doubts about and feel has been shoved down my throat.
Sure she lied a few times, she is a politician and she actually owned up to it. Other than that I have yet to see anything that struck me as worse than anything I have seen in the past or read about in history.
Hell my favorite President, Harry S Truman was pretty vicious to Henry Wallace and so were his surrogates while Wallace was one of the last really deep in the bone progressives.
So do not give me this stupid shit about her being somehow worse than one of our Greatest Presidents. You want something? YOU FIGHT FOR IT and she has.

1. Not really. The unapologetic IWR wasn't getting my primary vote. I was watching Edwards and Obama |

3. Fer chrissake, get a grip. |

What is up with such purple prose? This is only a primary.
Holocaust metaphors? You cheapen the holocaust with this.

Not an easy thing to do, I might add.
