122. Interesting point that...."fake outrage"
Do you really believe the outrage IS fake?? I don't..You know, the funny thing is, I didn't want Clinton, and I have said so...but I wasn't sure of Obama either...Just about the time I was going to give Clinton the benefit of the doubt, this happens...I remember all those assassinations, and just the thought of such a thing, raises my hackles...I don't think she's suitable for president, no matter how much experience she has, IF she doesn't know any better than to say something like this..considering the following things...

1. She's said she's staying in, until SHE'S the nominee
2. She's behind Obama in just about every category
3. She's seriously in debt..
5. She has mentioned RFK's assassination several times, when we ALL know that comparisons about Democrats previously campaigning into June could have very well been made w/o ever mentioning his or anyone's unfortunate demise.
6. One does NOT expect an experienced candidate to commit faux paux like this...
7. She knows Obama's life has been threatened
8. She knows he had to have SS earlier than most candidates do
9. She just campaigned in two states that showed her that racial bias IS alive and well out there, so if she were alert, she would have caught a clue...right?
10. NONE of us know what she meant, NONE..but MOST of us do KNOW HOW IT SOUNDED...and that's why the OUTRAGE is NOT FAKE...!!IMO...no matter what she meant, her reference to RFK's assassination was thoughtless, insensitive, uncalled for and totally out of place...wb
