About that stripped WI Delegate.........
Advertisements [?]
So... I inadvertently caught part of Hannity's America and watched an interview by Hannity with Debra Bartoshevich. She was the WI Delegate who was stripped of her delegate-ness for declaring her support for McCain. A few things caught my attention.

1. If she was ever really a Clinton supporter why would she go on Hannity's America? Up until Obama won the nomination Hannity's America was a show focused on smearing Hillary. Every minute of every show in fact.

2. She said she was stripped of her vote by the Wisconsin Democrat Party.

3. She said that she agreed with Hillary on every policy and seemed to agree with Hannity's opinion that Obama had identical policies. Yet, she claimed that her choice was made based on resume. So according to her logic: 26 years in Congress/Senate for McCain trumps Hillary's 7 Senate years but not Obama's 10 state legislator/3 Senate years? I'm seriously... Obama and Hillary are pretty close in resume when compared to McCain's as far as years.

4. She showed pure disdain for Dean and Pelosi.

5. She said that Obama was "playing the race card" by introducing himself as a black man at his speeches and saying his name. (Which was both odd and false...Obama doesn't normally introduce himself by saying "Hi I'm a black man named Obama"?!?!!?


So...um... wtf.. No way has she ever been a Democrat. I smell a Rush crossover that tricked those in her precinct.

Bonus smear: She had a letter from a "veteran" telling her that he admires her for voting for McCain especially since she doesn't agree with his policies. (I wasn't really listening any more at this point but I think it was a "good job for being courageous" letter. :puke:
