Barak's bitterness statement is being blown way out of proportion!
I see people seem to forget that prior to him being elected to the Senate, he was a Civil Right attorney! People seem to forget that many of the cases he worked were pro-bono! Meaning, he worked on cases of people who lost their jobs. He can relate to that small town person who lost their job, and how truly "Bitter" that person must feel when they see jobs, schools, and other important things in small towns that once was the glue to that community decomposing right in front of their very eyes. Yes, people must feel bitter to see a job that they have been working in for 10-12; 25 years, only to have that job downsize, and that position shipped overseas. Yes, people must be "Bitter" to see money that can me used to modernize school, is used to build a 700 million dollar Embassy in Iraq. Yes, the small town person must be "Bitter" seeing lobbyist, and huge oil companies rack in mega-profits, brag about it, and the entire time, wages stay the say for the small town person. A gallon of Milk that once was $3.99/gal, is now up to $6.99/gal! Why should be not be "Bitter"? Actually, I believe "Bitter" is not a strong enough word. How about PISSED!!!!!!!!!!

1. Hillary's "hospital" story was blown out of proportion, while DU stared into space
Unfortunately.

3. Um, there is video of Hilary NOT dodging bulletfire.
But I bet you can find a lot of people in this country you ARE bitter at the turn their lives have taken.

5. Our transparent friend is probably a
RE-joiner. Odds are there is a granite cookie in his/her recent past.
