1. How dare Obama have such big rallies! |
|
Last week, Obama filled a 17,000 seat arena in Dallas and people were turned away. The next day, Clinton gathered 1,000 people in a parking lot. Thursday, Obama is appearing at the Fort Worth Convention Center in deeply Republican Tarrant County.
Shame on Obama for his big rallies!!!!!111!!!

How selfish to be so angry about a fellow Democrat energizing so many people throughout the country. Many of her supporters on the DU forums are the same way - they are angry that people are getting excited about politics and change in our country! It truly is sad and incredibly selfish.

7. Have to feel sorry for anyone who was on the receiving end of her lectures for 30+ years. |

Either spouse or child. "Ya know" (phrase credited to HRC), I have defended her and stood up for her for about 17 years now, but the most charitable emotion I can now feel for her is pity. She's a brilliant woman - she was brighter than Bill at law school - and she threw away her own life's considerble potential to follow him down to Arkansas, and focus her life on his successes. The life she has chosen to live, and the international humiliation she has suffered, and her own denial of her feelings, have shaped her personality and her psyche - and the result is sad. There are parents who try to live their lives through their children, and there are wives who do the same thing with their husbands.
I hope however this all plays out, that she does not do further damage to herself and that she finds happiness and peace through some other venue than pursuing power. She is like those who hang onto a bad situation with the desperate need to salvage it - because otherwise we feel all our sacrifice and pain were for nought. That was the attitude of peolpe opposed to cutting our losses and getting the hell out of Vietnam - because then all those dead soldiers "would have died for nothing." The reality was that those soldiers and the civilian "collateral damage" died for the industrial war machine, so the sooner we got out of there the better for the young draftees, and the worse for the war profiteers. They wanted the US to "double down" and commit more troops. That doubling down is the same political strategy Clinton has followed in this campaign. If something didn't work, just do twice as much of it.
