VIDEO: Hillary stays in because Barack may be assassinated
Fri, May 23, 2008
Certifiable insanity.
“My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it,” she said, dismissing calls to drop out.
Substantive argument – I’m sure if a nominee is assassinated Democrats can find someone to fill the role without having Hillary standing around waiting for it to happen.
Non-substantive argument – THIS WOMAN IS COMPLETELY INSANE. Not to mention a vile disgusting human being. UPDATE – Aravosis is the man.
4:52PM Hillary apologized to the Kennedy family for saying that one of the reasons she’s waiting to drop out is because Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June. Whatever. Then her spokesman said that reading anything into what she said would be “outrageous.” Fuck you. You just said that it was too early to drop out in May because Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June. FUCK YOU, HILLARY CLINTON. She said what a lot of us have been wondering for months now. What “meteor” was Hillary waiting for, that she wanted to say in the race “just in case”? Just in case what? Just in case Obama is assassinated, apparently. Where the hell is Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean. Enough of her bullshit. Why would any black voter stay in our party if we aren’t willing to stand up to this kind of hateful bullshit?
4:49PM: It’s particularly sick that Hillary would somehow use Bobby Kennedy’s assassination as a reason for staying in the race the week that Ted Kennedy left the hospital with a brain tumor.

Michele Obama AGREES with Hillary re: Obama….
Why is Barack Obama is the most closely guarded US politician after the President?
http://www.independent.ie/world-news/north-america/operation-renegade-1385864.html
Is it because the United States of America is “ready” for this candidate? or because there are too many people that are NOT ready?
Why is the Secret Service so concerned that they provided Obama with protection long before any other candidate?
Is it because we are SO “ready” for “change?”
“His wife Michelle — who now also has her own Secret Service detail — has said that she is not worried about the threat of “some crazy person with a gun” harming her husband.
Her attitude is very different to that of Alma Powell, wife of Colin Powell, the first African- American secretary of state who, fearing that he might be shot or attacked, reportedly threatened to leave her husband if he ran for the presidency in 1996.
Speaking in a televised interview last year, Michelle Obama said that the threats her husband faced were no different than the risks ordinary black men in America face every day.”
The ONLY problem with that is that inner city black men don’t have Secret Service detail to protect them from bullets (or off comments)

“Black men are America’s most likely crime victims. Even Latino men, who suffer high homicide rates, are much less likely than black men to be murdered. A black man is safer in prison today than living free in Los Angeles County.”
As disgusting as you find it…Hillary is RIGHT, and Michelle agrees with her. “I don’t lose sleep over it, because the realities are that, as a black man, you know, Barack can get shot going to the gas station,” she told CBS news.” (and he doesn’t even need to be a Presidential Candidate)
