Hillary Clinton's extraordinarily disturbing and corrupt past is well known to the big media, and yet virtually none of it is being exposed during this year's historic election contest."
Thus, although the press reports on the New York senator's stump speeches and delegate count and so on, the one thing the public never hears is the truth.
"We never hear a word about her radical socialist views,". "We never hear about her scandals and notoriously shady enterprises with Bill Clinton, about Whitewater, Travelgate, Chinagate, Pardongate, the impossible $1,000-to-$100,000 futures trade, about her repeated episodes of obstructing justice, hiding and shredding subpoenaed documents, lying to investigators and ordering subordinates to lie. We never hear about her incredibly foul mouth or her legendary abuse of Secret Service agents."
Everyone in the Washington Press Corps knows about every one of these scandals and more. And yet, they never see fit to communicate to the public what this person is really like. So we watch TV, and are swept up with the speeches, debates and high drama of a presidential election, always protected by the press from confronting reality – that Hillary Clinton is a pathologically lying chameleon for whom nothing is sacred but her own aggrandizement."

There is no "Operation Chaos" folks. That's a joke on party hacks who take themselves ever so seriously. Hillary can't admit that Rush listeners are keeping her in the race; that gives them too much power and makes Hillary and Obama look weak.
CNN and MSNBC have fallen for "Operation Chaos". They want to complain about criminal interference with an election, giving Obama a chance to demand that results be ignored as tainted. The networks can't pass up a chance to bad mouth Rush but that means trivializing Hillary, which is bad for one's resume in the news business.
Decisions, decisions. So much spin, so little time.
I find it difficult not to take seriously Rush's words and attempts to destroy Obama and the Dem party when he recently said this:

DENVER -- Talk show host Rush Limbaugh is sparking controversy again after he made comments calling for riots in Denver during the Democratic National Convention this summer.

He said the riots would ensure a Democrat is not elected as president, and his listeners have a responsibility to make sure it happens.

"Riots in Denver, the Democrat Convention would see to it that we don't elect Democrats," Limbaugh said during Wednesday's radio broadcast. He then went on to say that's the best thing that could happen to the country.

...

Several callers called in to the radio show to denounce Limbaugh's comments, when he later stated, "I am not inspiring or inciting riots, I am dreaming of riots in Denver."

Limbaugh said with massive riots in Denver, which he called "Operation Chaos," the people on the far left would look bad.

"There won't be riots at our convention," Limbaugh said of the Republican National Convention. "We don't riot. We don't burn our cars. We don't burn down our houses. We don't kill our children. We don't do half the things the American left does."

Never understood why anyone would call him an elitist. A white man who grew up under the same circumstances would be perceived as a regular guy who made good. Whatever priviledge he has, HE EARNED. Hillary on the other hand was well off and married well ... and EXPECTS PRIVILEDGE. Don't know why people don't care to admit these truths.
I agree completely.

You are being taken in. In 1968 the left thought riots were the way to go. So inspiring. Burn, baby, burn! But guess who won? The riots made Humphrey look old, powerless and out of touch.

Today, the aging rioters are respected members of academia, proud of their past. "I didn't do enough!"

Al Sharton promises to shut NYC down. A very worthy goal, in the minds of local taxpayers, but we know that is code-talk for riots.

Rush was right. Riots would be a dream for Republicans but only Democrats can make that dream come true.

No matter the history behind the '68 convention, how could any real patriot IN HIS RIGHT MIND (and we know Rush is not) WISH for it to happen again. What an American!

well actually he has pretty close to the same percentage of blue collar democratic vote as her. Will see what Super delegates are made of - would suspect - money and position (appointments)- but will see if the people put up with it. Either way McCain is defeated - notice in the last three primaries he didn't get 25%+ of his own parties vote? Some dissatisfaction there.
Before the dumb SF comments and flip flop on Rev Wrong, Obama would have beaten McCain in the general election.
I don't see that anymore.

He's still better than the Hildabeast alternative but has proved he is not the uniter he claimed to be.

Set aside race...just for a second.
Who's more like you and who's the elitist?
The candidate raised by a single mother(sometimes on public assistance) who went to school on student loans.(or)
The son and grandson of Navy Commanders with six houses a private jet and $100,000,000.00 in the bank?
I don't see voters looking to elect someone more like themselves.
Voters made that mistake before in electing Jimmy Carter.

They want someone capable of doing the job.

Obama vs McCain is the better match up since it gives us 2 contrasting choices on most issues.

Long way from the election. Maybe when his opponents are more concerned with attacking republicans instead of eating their own - something will change. Why hillary needs to bow out, before people find out she is wearing the emperor's new clothes.

Many tend to look for a preconceived type...their type...

A black guy named Obama is harder to get their minds around.

The San Francisco "bitter" assessment of this phenomenon while poorly worded.....is a true reality.

All of these things you claim are well known are also mostly BS and hype. These things were being saved for the general election if she got the nomination, this info is only effective with voters who have never heard any of it, oh yeh, it's also effective with brain dead republicans. GO OBAMA..........

Obama hasn't been able to put her away and doesn't get the blue collar Democrat vote.
There's big cracks in the dam come November.
I thought the Teamsters as well as some other labor unions had endorsed him.

Good point, I was thinking about a month ago that she was reminding me of the Iraqi minister of information who was on TV in Baghdad telling the people that the Americans were being beaten in a battle outside the city while the American tanks were rolling through the streets and the explosions could be heard while he was denying the whole thing. Hillary is looking more delusional every day. The Clintons are finished, they just won't admit it.

Whatever happened to being gracious in defeat?

Don't try to get the nomination by any means possible, especially if it means ignoring the popular vote and using superdelegates.

I don't know if I want a president that will stop at nothing to get their own way. Haven't we already had enough of that these past 7-8 years?
