1. This is great. Thanks to Mary in Florida at YouTube for posting it
and to you too ;-)

It illustrates so well how Chilton keeps trying to drag the campaigning into silly land,
out of desperation more than anything, cuz this is ALL they got on Obama.. absolutely NOTHING.

well nothing but flailing and lashing out with transparently tacky dirty tricks that is.

3. It also illistrates knucklehead DUers who believe Drudge at his word.
Plus--- the video was incredibly misogynists.

Shame on the OP for posting this shit.

5. No, you're just willing to make fun of another woman's body shape.

You don't hate yourself. But you might hate yourself by the time you're 60. If you think Hillary's body looks funny, you ain't seen nuthin' yet.

(If you think this is just a coincidence that they included those weirdly angled pics of Hillary's legs, then tell me why there are no pics of Huckabee in there in his fat hey-day?)

9. Go home, you won't have a better tomorrow with
this kind of hatred-filled heart. I hate to say that YOU ARE A BAD PERSON, really BAD PERSON.

6. Hillary is a Joke
She could teach KKKarl Rove a thing or two, it's not that I'm such a Obama supporter but God open your eyes. She's at the point where this is all she's got, what a nasty way to bow out.

10. Believe Drudge
and suffer the consequences. The Republican talking points appear on Drudge before they are repeated on Fox and right wing hate radio.

11. Yep, the poster couldn't pass up pointing out....
Edited on Tue Feb-26-08 10:04 AM by unapatriciated
Clinton knees. What the hell do her knees have to do with the posters point? I so wish it would stop. I'm over fifty and have to deal with this shit every day. I have never understood the mentality of people who feel the need to insult or humiliate another(especially women) person based on looks. I have a son who is disabled he endured this type of bullshit all through high school but you expect this type of behavior from children not adults. I say shame on all of you who use these type of tactics. I will vote Dem in November but post like this continue to reaffirm my vote in the primaries was for the better candidate.

14. The "Garb Issue" = a NON-issue I think is the point of the OP
in case you missed it.

I frankly don't care where it came from because it's irrelevant anyway.

next.

16. Exactly....
The point of the video is to show just how stupid the whole Drudge thing was. The real reason they originally put it out there was to point out that they think there is a religious issue attached to Obama, just like all the other lies surrounding his faith or photo ops that aren't what was really happening. Not so fast.....

We ALL look "silly" in our attire at one point or another with how we choose to dress. There is nothing wrong with honoring other cultures and the body shape thing is just one more way to look at whether or not we should point fun at someone which is why I put it in there. Apparantly, Hillary's group thought that pointing shame on someone on how they dress is appropriate so I just gave it back to her.

The main point is that the Clinton campaign is the one trying to bring things like this to TRY and destroy Obama.

Satire only hurts when you look in the mirror.....

12. Oh, that is awesome! But I would make one small change.
On the photo with Bush playing the guitar, I would then fade to the version where he's super-imposed over the New Orleans flood.
