All you people who have been defending Wright, Obama just threw you under the bus

[2rth2pwr]

and stepped on the gas. Who will he toss overboard next?

[madfloridian]

1. Hillary is cackling.

[indimuse]

52. you are SO obviously...Desperate!

[aquart]

67. When in doubt, go sexist.

How very becoming. But you might want to question WHAT you are becoming.

[YOY]

2. All thanks to you and your ilk

Clap yourself on the back! Mission accomplished for nothing!

[emilyg]

5. Yes - we made Obama do it.

[YOY]

11. And you still realize there is no way in hell Hillary will be the cadidate...

You have to. It's impossible not to.

[emilyg]

19. Why is it so important for you to keep saying that?

I don't mind letting the process play out.

[YOY]

22. Because it's true.

I didn't want to hear that Santa Claus didn't exist when I was a kid either.

Pouting about it and acting pompous won't help anyone. He still doesn't exist. She still won't be the democratic candidate.

[emilyg]

40. That's your opinion. Mine is different.

[YOY]

42. No. That is the fact sister. No opinion about it.

66. Till someone reaches magic number

it's all opinion.

[YOY]

73. and since the only way Hillary can get to that magical number is...

...

...

I'm drawing a blank. Save the unthinkable.

[thevoiceofreason]

38. That's it! I need to start my own post on this revelation!

There are no Risk (tm) players among the Hillary camp. Every one of them who talks about "letting the process play out" is unaware of the cardinal rule in Risk -- when you are in a 3-4 person game, never carry on the battle too long because it weakens you and your opponent so much that the person(s) not involved in the battle has easy pickings. Are we fine with Hillary if she stays in but keeps it positive? Sure. She has good ideas and good programs. I hope Obama adopts a few of them. But a divisive campaign where she and that husband of hers tries to move up by pushing others down is lose-lose.

[Rageneau]

36. We realize no such thing.

Hillary will win because Democrats want to win.

[Innocent Smith]

37. Not impossible

Very, very unlikely though.

[aquart]

68. So? Bush was once " the candidate."

Doesn't mean he should be. Doesn't mean he'll do a good job. Doesn't mean he won't betray every promise he's made.

He sure was fond of Wright till Wright disagreed with him.

Buh bye, Wright.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

3. Stop mixing metaphors.

He's either throwing them overboard or under the bus. Pick a metaphor and stick to it.

[frogcycle]

6. over the bus?

maybe the OP is not the brighest bulb in the knife drawer

[2rth2pwr]

21. LOL! ya got me.

[Enrique]

49. he's also selling them down the river

[bowens43]

4. HIs next victem will be hillary. On may 6th he puts the fork in her.

[uponit7771]

7. FYI: Obama and Wright are black but they're not the same person, thx

[Arrowhead2k1]

12. "FYI: Obama and Wright are black but they're not the same person, thx"

Quoted for the mother fucking truth!

[aquart]

69. Beige. They're beige.

[DJ13]

8. Wrong

Did you listen to Obama's press conference?

[cottonseed]

9. A tire track pattern pant suit will look good on Hillary.

She'll be next.

[Bake]

61. I just love those violent metaphors ...

Bake

[aquart]

70. Damn woman doesn't know her place.

But you'll show her, goldarnit!

[ecstatic]

10. There are several situations occuring, which you obviously don't get

1. Wright is speaking on a lot of things that we as liberals embrace; however, those views are not embraced by the mainstream.

2. Wright's media blitz HURTS Obama. Wright's association with Obama HURTS Obama.

3. It is therefore OK for Obama to distance himself from Wright, and any realist would agree.

[Window]

30. Will these people ever just shut the fuck up????

Sen. Obama is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

[2rth2pwr]

65. no.

politics ain't beanbag.

[cali]

13. Well, since I haven't been defending Wright since he went on his

media spree, and since I criticized Wright for comments about Hillary and Bill even before that, I clearly don't feel that Obama did anything wrong. Wright threw Obama under the bus first. Obama responded. Good for him.

[2rth2pwr]

24. Yes, you get points for honesty.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

14. Is that what he did?

Because it looks to me like he just threw your only bit of campaign rhetoric under the bus.

What phony, non-issue will you try to slime Obama with next?

[barack the house]

15. I said I would prefer Wright to clear his name more than Obama being elected because it is right.

[2rth2pwr]

25. What's right? What wright claims about AIDS? Or that we are terrorists?

[cliffordu]

16. NOt really - but you'll take the most hateful tack. Thanks!

[Cali_Democrat]

17. I have been defending Wright and still will continue to defend him

I don't care if Obama has thrown me under the bus, as you claim. I will continue to donate to Obama and support him. I will not flee into the waiting arms of a cackling Hillary.

[SeaLyons]

18. Obama tossed Wright over....

the pastor you guys thought was terrific. Obama disagrees with you.

this is getting really interesting....

[tridim]

27. You apparently don't understand modern (media driven) politcs at all.

Obama had no choice regarding Wright, he did what he had to do.

What do you think he should have done?

[SeaLyons]

35. never ran for President...

he is not ready.

[tridim]

39. Yet he's beating Hillary

Speaks volumes huh.

[cliffordu]

41. Blah de blah de blah blah blah. We got it, on to the next, please.

[cui bono]

20. You are so wrong. See, Obama and most Dems know that people can have differing opinions.

You know that too, but in your fervor to smear Obama you are forgetting that.

[2rth2pwr]

26. Obama is shocked , shocked I tell ya. This Wright that has these weird conspiracy

theories is not the the Wright he knew.

[aquart]

71. Yeah, one disagreement with Obama and Wright is history.

So much for that differing opinions, stuff.

Like Obama supporters have shown ANY tolerance for differing opinions. HAH!

[otohara]

23. Maybe Someday Hillary Will Tire of Bill

and throw him under the bus.

[aquart]

72. Or, she actually is both loyal and forgiving.

Which doesn't square with that "monster" hiding in your closet, does it?

[ProSense]

28. Do you really believe people who were defending Wright will stop?

I'm not running for president, Obama is.

[Hoof Hearted]

29. Depends on who climbs out of Obama's clown car of destruction next.

Then we can check under the bus again.

[BootinUp]

31. lol nt

[1776Forever]

32. Did anyone catch the HRC Surrogate on Larry King Live who said he can't win because he is AA?

Why am I bringing this up in this post - because you HRC supporters are defending what was used as talking point by your candidates supporters and will be on CNN and MSNBC and Fox! Hillary and Bill are using the race card and now you are just trying to be so high and mighty about it!

Take a look at the transcript:

Here is the transcript:

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0804/28/lkl.01.html

FLAVIA COLGAN, "PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS" - Obama Supporter COLGAN: Look, the proof in the pudding is in the eating of it. And I certainly respect the viewpoints of the American voter. So far they have obviously chosen Barack Obama, in terms of delegates. And throughout the country, he's running a 50-state strategy. But I will respect whatever decision they make. I think that it's patronizing to the American public to think that we haven't made -- and this is whereI disagree with Reverend Wright -- that we haven't made enough progress as a nation that someone like Barack Obama will not become president simply because of the color of their skin. I do not believe that.

CAROLE SIMPSON, EMERSON COLLEGE - Clinton Surrogate: SIMPSON: Oh, you better believe it.

COLGAN: I'm sorry. You can have your opinion.

SIMPSON: You better believe it.

..........

Can you believe this kind of filthy tactics by Hillary campaign surrogates?

:wow:

[madfloridian]

33. And Hillary cackled because no one in the media mentioned the Fellowship

http://journals.democraticunderground.com/madfloridian/1474

[dionysus]

34. this is all you clowns have left isn't it?

:rofl:

[Forkboy]

43. My defense of him had nothing to do with Obama. It's called integrity...remember that?

[2rth2pwr]

44. Obama has none?

[Forkboy]

55. I was talking about you.

But you knew that. You couldn't be intellectually honest if your life depended on it. People with little or no integrity tend to be like that, so it's no surprise to see you prove it.

[IndianaJones]

45. the typical white Obama supporters were already under there. nt.

[closeupready]

46. Seems like it to me. Taking a wait-and-see approach now.

Seeing how I feel about it next week.

[scheming daemons]

47. I'll type slow so you understand....

We *LIKED* what Wright said to Bill Moyers and at the NAACP conference.... we are OUTRAGED by what Wright said at the Press Club yesterday.


And notice that Obama ONLY Mentioned what Wright said yesterday......


Friday and Sunday, what Wright said was fine.

Monday, what he said was outrageous.


Get it?


Didn't think so.... you're thick like that.

[2rth2pwr]

58. Here's a test, how about the 30 second clips? Did you like what he said there?

No.no, no- God Damn America, it's in the bible!!

America's Chickens!! are coming home...... To Roost!!!

etc, etc..

[scheming daemons]

59. No..I didn't..but they happened years ago and no proof that Obama heard them before you and I did...

[crimsonblue]

50. Too late, my friend.

All the Obama voters don't live in "states that matter", so the Hillary express already steamrolled them a while back.

[Lucky 13]

51. Hillary's supporter organized his appearance at the NPC.

Wright, for whatever reason, has turned on Obama and Hillary seized on it. Her supporter arranged for him to speak at the NPC. That story will break and will once again show her for the monster she is.

[Hoof Hearted]

53. OMG, you're serious! You're blaming that crazy ass preacher shit on Hillary?

That's so, so, sad.

You just made a kitten cry.

[Lucky 13]

57. What would your reaction be?

Look, I just stated FACT. Her supporter organized his speech at NPC. Why would she do that? What would possibly be the motive?

What would your reaction be if an Obama supporter arranged for Lewinsky or Paula Jones?

[Hoof Hearted]

60. No, you posted a paranoid fantasy.

You know, I can't wait to see who tumbles out of Obama's clown car of destruction tomorrow.

[LVjinx]

54. This has been debunked, but nice try. Don't you guys get tired of lying?

http://www.politico.com/blogs/michaelcalderone/0408/Press_Club_President_responds_Reynolds_pitched_Rev_Wright_two_years_ago.html

[2rth2pwr]

64. If you look closely, you can see Clinton palming Wright the key to the safe deposit box.

[shayes51]

56. Seems like it to me, too.

Who will be next? We'll have to wait and see.

[Egnever]

62. Guess your right

doesnt matter to me though I still like both of them.

[Jamastiene]

63. Looks like some more people shit and fell back in it again.

:popcorn:
