Wow, given all of the Martha’s Vineyard trips the Clintons have taken at the largesse of the Kennedy clan and their neighbors, I guess this means that maybe Hillary’s record just isn’t up to snuff.
Or maybe they’ve simply had enough of Bill playing the race card?

Of course the Clinton’s will act like this never happened.

Kennedy’s endorsement is much ado about squat.
Obama and HilnBil share exactly the same politics. They both oppose socialized medicine, repeal of NAFTA and other union busting laws and immediate withdrawal. In fact they both agree that the troops will have to stay until at least 2013. Their differences on the war are tactical – Obama wants to attack Pakistan and Clinton, who’s always agreed with Bush says the attack should be directed against Iran.
It’s true that Obama is a pigheaded opponent of samesex marriage equality but the Clintons are worse. They worked closely with their Republican bedmates to ram through bigot bills like DOMA and DADT and their campaign director Barney scuttled the hate crimes bill and ENDA sop they wouldn’t be an issue in the elections.
Obama does indeed pander to bigots but self loathing Rev. Donnie McClurkin and Mary Mary are chump change bigots compared to the ones who love Hillary Clinton. They include bible study bedmates like former Senators Santorum and Brownback, loonies like Pat Robertson and menacing figures Rupert Murdoch, fuehrer of the Faux News empire.
The problem facing Democrats is that their candidates support the war and the deregulation and union busting that’s ruining our standard of living. They both pander to bigots and their differences with the Republicans are cosmetic at best. Obama’s politics are not particularly different from the Clintons; they’ve just been at it longer and are more heartily detested for it.
A Republican politician is a baboon in a people suit with a totalitarian christian attached at the hip. A Democratic politician is a Republican in drag.

Is Bill Perdue, RainbowRED a bot?
He says the samething over and over and over. Surely, a real live person can be stuck in the same intellectual grove? Unless the have an organic problem like a tumor in the brain.
