4625090, ABC punked Obama supporters and NOT ONE will admit I bet
Posted by Horse with no Name on Sat Feb-16-08 11:20 PM

This is the piece of tripe that was posted yesterday. Even after being told by TWO DU'ers that were at the event that the ABC comment was TOTALLY out of context and NOT what Clinton said, I, in particular, was called a liar.

SO imagine MY suprise (not) today when the Dallas Morning News (hardly a friend of the Democrats) had this headline:

"Bill Clinton avoids attacks on Obama in East Texas"

Oh...and just as I said and was called a liar on...Clinton was VERY complimentary of Obama during the rally. It wasn't ugly. It wasn't negative. It was just about Hillary and NOT about Obama. They give a very good accounting of the speech. I won't wait for Obamites to say they were wrong...because they won't.
They will just ignore the truth. Hardly a shocker there.
But here is the truth and that other piece of lying tripe should be locked because it was NOTHING but a distorted comment taken out of context. I have also emailed ALL of this to Keith Olbermann as I was disappointed in his journalistic credibility for just taking the comment at face value and running with it.

"I'm not against anybody," he told an overflow crowd in the student center at Tyler Junior College. "I'm for Hillary." Later, he added: "If you disagree, you have another very attractive choice."


Look how he bashed Obama there. :eyes:

Mr. Clinton acknowledged that Mr. Obama is widely perceived as the "new and different" Democratic candidate – or, as he said in Texarkana, the candidate who "excites more Americans." He noted that he campaigned for Mr. Obama when he ran for the U.S. Senate from Illinois in 2004.

OMG I don't know how he can be sooo mean to Obama. :eyes:

His occasional kind words for Mr. Obama on Friday were in contrast to his tenor in South Carolina. There, he stumped hard and aggressively for his wife – too aggressively, some said.
