SD Hillary Endorser 'Argus Leader' Late Night Thoughts
http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/05/31/late-night-thoughts-on-the-argus-leader-endorsement/




How odd it is that we would have to wait until the end of the primary cycle in order to read a substantive endorsement. I guess there is a glimmer of hope in what has become an increasingly bleak empyrean for those of us who are true Democrats, not the recent arrivals who have jumped on our bandwagon for purposes I can only describe as selfish and apolitical. For when all is said and done, everyone will understand that what defines our Party is not a marketing strategy orchestrated to dupe the masses but policies and convictions aimed to ameliorate the plight of an economically beleaguered citizenry.

Remarkable about the Argus Leader’s 30 MAY 2008 editorial on Hillary Clinton is the Editorial Board’s refusal to acquiesce to all the blackmail distributed by the media and the Obama campaign. Or perhaps it was penned with all that blackmail in mind. For one does not encounter manufactured controversies, character assessments or platitudes of “hope” or “change” in the South Dakota newspaper’s endorsement of Hillary Clinton. Instead, one find a rigorous discussion of policies and solutions. I quote: Read the rest::: http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/05/31/late-night-thoughts-on-the-argus-leader-endorsement/#more-2822


<<<Snip>>>
The endorsement covers more than just Hillary’s truly universal health care, however; the Editorial Board also discusses her solutions to our energy crisis and to our country’s regrettable treatment of Native Americans. I quote again:

Clinton’s energy policy is forward thinking and wise. She advocates a broad federal research initiative to help solve our looming oil crisis. It’s a plan that would join university researchers, private industry and individual inventors behind a common goal.




Good Morning Du! :)

15. So if a person
becomes newly politically active and supports a Democratic candidate, they can't be a true Democrat?

12. The Argus Leader endorsed George W. Bush in 2004.
Why should we care about what they think?
