...for Hillary Clinton to stop denying the obvious? Her campaign is swirling down the toidy, and it's not coming back anytime soon.

I will begin this by saying that I have never supported Hillary. I have my reasons, which I will discuss momentarily.

Beyond that, I thought the idea of this election year, of all years, should not be a time for a great social experiment. A black man and a white woman as the options? I saw disaster on the horizon. I saw well, apparently.

I was for John Edwards right off the bat. I wish he were still in the running. Alas, politicians with more money always trump politicians with good ideas, policies, and so on.

When Edwards dropped out of the race, I was a bit forlorn realizing that I now had to commit my vote for president to an unprecedented "historical" experiment...er, election. Naturally, I decided I would support Barack Obama.

Why?

If Hillary would have just admitted she made a mistake in voting to let DUBYA start his war of convenience, I'd have supported her from that point forward. We all make mistakes. It's the people of character that admit to them, and people without who play bullshit denial games. If she'd have admitted her mistake, I'd have been banging the drum for her as loudly as possible.

Alas, that is not what happened, Is it?

Instead of admitting her humanity, she went down the DUBYA path of, "I'm the president, I never make mistakes." Only, she's not president, and she does make mistakes. Just look at her tawdry campaign.

As we approach the end of a rather tiresome road, she continues her Machiavellian machinations; the latest being "misspeaking" about her role in the Bosnian war. Hasn't she heard of video tape? Didn't she know that putting that out into the ether was sure to bring back a wave of people calling bullshit on her?

As a seeming final blow to her campaign, rich Democrats threaten to stop supporting those who don't support Hillary. Why didn't they just say, "if you don't do what we want you to do, we're taking our ball and going home?" Just what we need, more fucked up rich people telling us what to think, how to act, and whom to elect to the presidency.

Isn't that what got us into this mess in Iraq? Huh? Isn't it? And Hillary expects that we are too stupid to realize the underhanded games she's playing? She thinks the American people can't see the parallels between her hubris, and that of DUBYA. How fucked up is that?

She can misspeak (as in LIE like DUBYA) all she wants to try and puff up her credentials and pad her resume. The truth of the matter is, the more of this shit she pulls, the more she makes herself look like DUBYA in a pants suit, and the more people turn off to her and her vitriolic campaign.

I'd never say she should quit...ok, I would say that.

Her bullshit is threatening to tear apart the Democratic party. Is her victory so important to her that she'd throw the baby, the bath water, the plumbing, the tub, AND the rubber ducky out the window just so she can get what she wants? If so, then I say that she's no better than the liar DUBYA and all the rich bitches who pulled strings to make him president.

Do we REALLY want four more years of that brand of mindless arrogance?

NO NO NO!

Blessed be! Pappy
