Gordon Fischer, the former director of the Iowa Democratic Party and co-chair for Sen. Barack Obama's efforts in the Hawkeye State, is still very much involved in making sure Obama gets delegates as the caucus process continues.
He's also quite fired up about former President Bill Clinton's comments in front of a North Carolina VFW Hall, which the Obama campaign took to be an impugning of Obama's patriotism.
In his blog, Fischer writes:
"B. Clinton questions Obama's patriotism. In repsonse (sic), an Obama aide compared B. Clinton to Joe McCarthy. This is patently unfair. To McCarthy.
"When Joe McCarthy questioned others' patriotism, McCarthy (1) actually believed, at least aparently (sic), the questions were genuine, and (2) he did so in order to build up, not tear down, his own party, the GOP. Bill Clinton cannot possibly seriously believe Obama is not a patriot, and cannot possibly be said to be helping -- instead he is hurting -- his own party. B. Clinton should never be forgiven. Period. This is a stain on his legacy, much worse, much deeper, than the one on Monica's blue dress."
That's not quite the kind of comment that keeps with Obama's pledge to focus on policy differences instead of personal attacks, I think it's safe to say.

One pot calling the other pot black. They all deserve whatever they get. Keep Operation Chaos alive!!!
Members of the SAP (Stone Age Press) will denounce the hateful reference. That’s because they wish they were the ones wearing the dress at that most opportune time.
It amazes me that Gordon Fischer would say something like that.
I wonder what kind of tune he was whistling 10 years ago when the blue dress was brought up then?
Somehow I suspect he was talking much different than he is now.
What? Barack Hussein God-Damn-America Obama is not a patriot? How could anyone possibly seriously imagine that?
He would seem patriotic to a Marxist.
One’s gotta wonder how many subsequent dresses have been stained that never made it into the “press reports”
One can never know the extent. Chris Matthews spoke of the “tingling running up his leg” regarding Obama. It sounds like a “self-induced” reaction while fawning over the nightly telecast rewinds.
Not a peep from Moveon.org when a RAT mentions the stain on the blue dress.
*******OPERATION CHAOS******
That’ll leave a mark.
Well with the Rat state of campaigning shouldn’t he be resigning shortly for that?
Obama Zombies unite...
Naw,if they had been wearing the dress it would have remained spotless.
Not just blue dresses. All the colors of the Rainbow Coalition.
I notice Obamie lets his underlings do his dirty work for him. That way, if there is political blow back from it, he can say “I didn’t say it, he did.” That way, he remains ‘clean’. . .or at least he does in the eyes of the sheeple.
and hillllreee does not??????
I don't recall saying that. Can you please point me to the post where I made that claim?
I am expecting the Democrats convention to resemble a scene from the one of the Road Warrior movies...two go in one comes out.

Meaning...she does the same thing that you said Obama does. I simply asked: “And hilllleree does not?”
