�She knows better. Shame on her. Shame on her.�

�Hillary Clinton is out there like she�s on the duck blind every Sunday. She�s packing a six-shooter. Come on, she knows better. That�s some politics being played by Hillary Clinton.�

Obama Fires Back at Clinton: 'Shame on Her'

April 13, 2008 8:19 PM

ABC News' Sunlen Miller reports: Barack Obama launched into a fiery offensive this evening in a speech before the United Steelworkers Union in Steelton, Pa., in responding to criticisms about his "bitter" remarks -- going after Sen. Hillary Clinton in a way rarely seen over the course of this campaign.

"Shame on her," Obama said, echoing one of Clinton's own atacks on him. "Shame on her, she knows better."

Obama said he was disappointed with her for her response and then launched into a new criticism of Clinton over her recent admission of being a hunter, and compared her sarcastically to Annie Oakley.

"She�s running around talking about how this is an insult to sportsmen, how she values the Second Amendment, she's talking like she's Annie Oakley! Hillary Clinton's out there like she's on the duck blind every Sunday, she's packin' a six shooter! C'mon! She knows better. That's some politics being played by Hillary Clinton. I want to see that picture of her out there in the duck blinds."

22. She looked mean going after him. He makes you laugh with him (at her) by his response.

He doesn't look mean but it is brutally effective as a comeback to her ridiculous overreach. She didn't need to go there with the Annie Oakley routine.

21. Annie Oakley

:rofl:

He pulled no punches with that comeback. I'm pleasantly surprised.

I wish that Obama would come to my house and kick it with dh and I. He's a crack up. I can only imagine the comments he would make on a show like Entourage.

He called her Annie Oakley.

:rofl:

23. Best. Ever. If he continues this way and the way he responded to the torture ...

... question at the "compassion forum" ... he will not just be elected President, he will be a truly great President.

Peace,
Bob

34. i was bitter....NOW IM GETTING PISSED OFF....thank you Hillary

WE ALREADY KNOW THE DANGER OF BOMB BOMB BOMB JOHN "THE REPUBLICAN" MCCAIN....

for the past several months i have advocated allowing Clinton and Obama to duke it out---
what does not kill us makes us stronger

BUT HILLARY HAS GONE INTO A "ME OR DIE" REPUBLICAN-LITE ATTACK FORMAT WHICH WILL NOW HAVE ME VOTING MCCAIN IF SHE IS OUR CANDIDATE.....
..................NEW YORK CAN KEEP THEIR SENATOR

BARACK IS "NOT IN TOUCH"??????

BARACK DIDN'T MAKE $110 MILLION DOLLARS LAST YEAR
BARACK JUST FINISHED PAYING OFF HIS STUDENT LOANS
BARACK GREW UP IN A LOWER MIDDLE CLASS ENVIRONMENT WITH THE CONSTANT STIGMA ASSIGNED TO PEOPLE OF HIS COLOR IN AMERICA

........ HILLARY... PLEASE READ THIS... GO HOME!!!!!

35. Someone needs to tell the Hillary camp

to stop lobbing underhand balls that he can knock out of the park. It's not helping her.

37. This is stupid

The whole thing wouldnt have occurred if he hadnt used the word "cling"

how about "embrace" faith .. etc.

He should have also dropped the "guns" bit .... that has absolutly NOTHING to do with being
out of work other than maybe having more time to hunt LOL.

39. When we hang so much on one word, our democracy is really in trouble

I totally agree with you, and made that same exact point to a co-worker about 10 minutes ago.

38. A little too negative for me.

At some point I was looking for him to say "But I'm done talking about Senator Clinton. I want to get back to working for you and your problems" or something like that.

Also I really wish he didn't use the Shame on her bit. I gagged when she did it so this made me bite my lip a little bit.

40. I am 100% behind Barack O'Bama - have been from the beginning

but I did not particularly care for this side of him. I appreciate how he has managed to counter hillary's attacks by taking the high road. He does not need to ridicule clinton - she is managing to do that very well by herself. I much prefer his more subtle comebacks.

Against mccain, though, i hope he goes for the jugular...
