Hillary Clinton:
Right here over 200 Hoosiers built parts that guided our military’s smart bombs to their targets.

They were good jobs, but now, they’re gone to China.

And now America’s defense relies on Chinese spare parts.

George Bush could have stopped it, but he didn’t.

As your president, I will fight to keep good jobs here, and to turn this economy around.

I’m Hillary Clinton and I approve this message because American workers should build America’s defense.

That the factory in that Indiana-ad wasn't shut down under George W. Bush as Senator Clinton claimed, but that it was shut down and shipped to China under President Clinton. Oh wait, oh no, it's a World Net Daily source! Sort of. I checked with some legitimate sources and discovered a few things.

Bill Clinton--first black president? More like the first president to be rolled by a black future-president's racially cynical campaign! Awww yeah!!!!

EXCLUSIVE! Clinton releases secret memo on how Obama intended to play the "race card" all along!

By north_aufzoo - April 24, 2008, 6:18AM
Internal Memo - CONFIDENTIAL

January 2008

From: Axelrod and Plouffe, in conjunction with the Dark Crusaders.

To: Not Bill Clinton (Because if he got his hands on this, it would be political dynamite!!!)


Dear Secret Cabal of Obamabots:

As we know, January's "victory" in Iowa, while fortuitous, did not really count, because it came in the form of an elitist caucus. Therefore, to shore up support and lend our fly-by-night campaign some measure of legitimacy, we must use every advantage at our disposal to discredit Hillary (as well as her charming and still-strikingly-good-looking husband, Bill). And, as any freshman political science student can tell you, the only thing that's more of a "slam-dunk" electorally than running a black candidate for national office is that candidate's ability to effectively employ the fabled "The Race Card."

For those of you that don't know what the "Race Card" is, and how it is played, let me briefly explain. Remember when Harold Ford Jr. was running for a senate seat in 2006? Recognizing he was behind in the polls, Ford secretly orchestrated an RNC ad that hearkened back to those days in which miscegenation was a hangin' offense. The liberal commentariat was up in arms, and public sympathy migrated from Ford's opponent to Ford himself. By preying on white guilt--playing the "Race Card"--Harold Ford was able to manipulate the electorate, successfully losing the Tennessee senatorial election by a respectable margin. What's more, by the time everything was over, most folks agreed that he was a fine young man. Score!

I propose that this campaign take a similar tack. Of course, Sen. Obama's stated aim has been to look past race and unite us as a nation, and frankly, that's adorable. He might at first bristle at our nefarious plans, arguing that becoming pigeonholed as the "black" candidate is political suicide; that his only chance for broad electable viability would come from his specifically NOT playing the "Race Card," and that the less said about race during this campaign, the better.

But we're smarter than that. If we can get America thinking that the Clintons are a bunch of amoral race-baiters (even though they totally aren't duh!!!), then Obama might just have a shot at this election, even though we are bereft of ideas and the Clintons are actually the ones embody political dynamism and the one who care about the U.S. Americans for real!!!!
