Hillary has joined ranks with Obama in pointing the finger at conservative media, "The Vast Right-wing Conspiracy", when she started the issue about her closest rivavl in the primary. If Steve Dooce (Fox)could have just reported Hillary's raising the question without editorializing, we could have sat back and watched the two front running Dems tear each other apart. When conservative media got in the frey, Obama stepped back & pointed the finger at them, rather than Hillary. Obama made a shrewed move. While Hillary may be about 40% in the polls to Obama's 20%, he is gaining from her attrition. Looking at the % difference between the two over time, his momentum could easily take her by New Hamphire. Hillary has split the party going for middle ground. Her support of Iraq will hurt her in the primary.

How would this be different than the Wilie Horton issue that Bush got blamed for starting when actually it was Gore that first used it to tar Dukakis?

This is a hoot of hypocrisy. Someone should take copies of the last six years of the NYT and dump them on Hitlery and Osama Obama's doorstep for them to read. Then let us see if they want to say the word "smear"....

It's up there with Maureen Dowd making fun of Obama's ears and MSNBC blaming Rush for it

Pay Attention Folks ... it's all about sound bites

This is classic Clinton politics. What's funny is that Obama is too stupid to realize he's being used.

The idiocy and hypocrisy of both these über-morons never ceases to amaze me.

So, let me get this straight...Obama and Hillary think accusing someone of being Muslim is a smear campaign? ;)

One of the stragegies Stalin is credited for (and the Clintons repeatedly use) is to declare an enemy is doing something wrong, illegal or unethical; while doing it yourself.

For as your enemy is now in a position of defense; you are now gaining the benefit of being on the offense, and remain free to do what he cannot.

"Politics of Personal Distruction", "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy", "Republican Culture of Corruption", and "Rascist" to name a few.

Hillary's smear campaign against BHO was uncovered. Now she has to play damage control and divert attention from the Clintonistas.

"When I was six, I attended an Indonesian public school where a bunch of the kids were Muslim, because the country is 90% Muslim," he said...



So in other words, he admits it's true.

I would want to know what "public school" he attended. What foreigner ever attends a public school in a third world country.
Somehow I get the sense that there is some meat to this story if someone would dig enough.

Try this. Hillary got this "Muslim problem" out early so it will be old news not worth looking into by election time. The plan being she will run as president...he as vice president. She can control..he can talk.

The press is pushing Obama but he has the problem that in his books and bios he has not been quite honest about his past and has been making a lot up. This needs to be swept under the rug as soon as possible for him to be a serious contender. This is their way of doing it.
