Then Hillary campaign strikes back that Obama didn't reject and denounce the remarks enough.

Wow. Just wow.

These are some seriously classy folks.

ETA: Where were the Obama's campaign remarks against Hillary when she didn't apologize to him for her assassination "gaffe?"

Oh wait, that's right. Only dicks demand apologies.

4. Bless this man.
I'm reminded of the end of Shawshank Redemption of an innocent man falsely imprisoned for thirty years crawling through 500 yards of shit to be free. I sense similar sentiments in this campaign.

8. I had a tire blowout about thirty miles outside Chicago, about nine years ago.
Obama has not repudiated my tire blowout strongly enough for me!!!!!!

11. your radius is far too small
If ANYONE, ANYWHERE in the UNITED STATES so much as bats an eyelash the wrong way, it's somehow Obama's fault and he must reject and denounce IMMEDIATELY.

14. Or any black guy, no matter what the distance....
Examples:

Farrakhan: http://mediamatters.org/items/200802270002
Belafonte: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-daou/why-did-russert-ask-obama_b_14258.html

It's par for the course. Black folks are all the same to white folks, and hence one has to answer for all.

15. Did you hear?
The White Sox never winning proves Obama will lose in November!

Why can't the Super delegate Automatic Delegates listen to reason!!!

5. Classic response for someone who can't defend the indefensible.
The "two wrongs make a right" strategy. Desperate much?

16. Not defending anything- simply making an irrefutable observation
about the nature of some of some Obama camp who, when it suits them- whinge and express "outrage" about what Clinton, while having ZERO problems with their own juvenile behaviors.

Kinda pathetic, don't you think?

NOT her surrogates or supporters.

18. Very pathetic.
If it had been a Clinton supporting pastor making indefensible comments, DU would be at Defcon 3. There would be a thousand threads denouncing Hillary.

7. I will keep people reminded of their hypocrisy until June 4th.
At which point, it will officially cease to matter.

13. I don't think it really matters now.
This is engaging in tit-for-tat, and really a waste of time.

Hillary's campaign ist Kaput.

12. They did the same thing with Wright.
I believe the technical term is 'milking it.'

20. Here's what I don't understand.
Obama's supposed to apologize for Pfleger mocking Clinton. I remember Hillary mocking Obama
"The clouds will open up...there will be a celestial choir..." She did exactly the same thing. Why shouldn't
she apologize? Oh I forgot. Clinton's don't have to apologize.

21. That's outrageous!!!
Clintons never apologize, you fool! They retreat into "victim stance" and pray you aren't paying attention. :sarcasm:

And yet she's "ready from Day One." I wonder how world leaders would respond to her running to the corner and asking the refs to save her?
