Wolfson regarding Hillary's non-apology to Obama: "...her remarks were not about Senator Obama. They had nothing to do with Senator Obama..."

Schiffer's dismay at their position is priceless.

1. McAuliffe on Fauxnews
Terry McAuliffe on Fauxnews

“It’s unfortunate. A hyped-up press over Memorial Day weekend — the Obama campaign inflaming it, tried to take these words out of context. She was making a point merely about the timeline,” McAuliffe said. “Friday they were all part of this process. The press secretary came out and attacked Senator Clinton and got it going so the story would be around for three days. It’s nice to get a story going and then, you know, let it go for three days over the weekend and say, ‘Oh, she didn’t mean anything about it.’”

2. Is there any lower form of life than Howard Wolfson?
I caught that segment this morning. I could scarcely believe it.

Their dirty, rotten campaign will go down in history as one of the worst, and in American politics, that's saying something.

I spent years defending the Clintons. Now it's clear they think we are stupid.

3. She seems incapable of ever taking responsibility for anything...
..bad that happens.

She is quick to take credit (deserved or not), but blame, no way.

reminds me too much of a certain POTUS (can you name one mistke you have made?......crickets!).

I love how ABC with George could only ask, in the middle of this storm for Hillary, "why are you stirring this up" to Axelrod.

8. Disgusting
Wolfson calls the Obama campaign's restrained, mild response "inflammatory" --after Hillary raises the specter of her opponent's assassination as a rationale for staying in the race.

God.

And I thought the Bush administration had a lock on "sleazy" and "despicable." Silly me.

9. wasn't it alarmingly disgusting?
Bob Schiefer ended up laughing at him dismissively which should be our response to all of them.

They are insulting my intelligence now.

Assholes.

Thank god I have this on TiVo and didn't have to watch all of it.

Liars, all of them.

11. the real Clintons
The Clintons are a part of the regime now entrenched in Washignton DC. Bill ushered in key policies and legislation to begin the process to overthrow our government. She belongs to a D.C. secretive inner circle with Nazi-like beliefs. They even have prayer breakfasts to espouse their fanatical beliefs. Now that she can't get the top job nomination, Hillary is working to get the VP slot. Her recent gaffe using Robert Kennedy's assasination in June of 68 to support her rationale for continuing to fight for the nomination is fishy, and so is her shaky apology. The apology was almost verbatim the same as Huckster Huckabee's when he made a similar inuendo about an Obama assasination. Is it coincidental? Or is the subliminal message a precursor of things to come? God help us.

13. Bingo!
The neocon agenda is bipartisan.
We have too look very closely at the individuals.
Unfortunately the ignorant masses could be easily blindsided.

15. I've never seen Scheiffer respond to anyone quite like that before...
His disbelief almost rendered him disrepectful... Not that I blame him one iota. He really had no other alternative.

Wow... this campaign has provided me with a whole new array of firsts, most of them quite heartbreaking:(

They aren't going to spin this one into gold, that's for sure.

17. So the statements of the Obama campaign were "unfortunate"?
UNFORTUNATE? I had to listen twice because I couldn't believe my ears!

Inflammatory statements?! Clinton is deeply dismayed?! :wtf:

I can picture dana perino watching this, taking inspirational notes and going "boy this guy is good...".

The original assassination-statement itself was bad enough but these guys...they still manage to go EVEN lower. Incredible.


But Schiffer's chuckle at the end was great, sounded to me like "you are so out of your mind you fool".


PS : How much longer are they still deemed Democrats?

20. It's like listening to a child.
I just realized this, watching that clip.

"well, I apologized..."

"not really, it was a non-apology.."

"well, we didn't do anything wrong, the media did!"

"really?"

"well, mean old Obama did!"

"REALLY???"

"well, you shut up!"

It's amazing, it really is. I see no difference in this respect to Bush, I really don't. Incapable of admitting a mistake.

Of course her record is close to Obamas, I realize that, but I do not want 8 more years of this sort of tin eared nonsense. I'd like a grown up now, please.
