Fire in the Belly Produces Venom From Her Mouth
by FredrickBernanke

The most productive analysis of HRC's racist comments would be produced by doing the following:

1. Eliminate the direct reference to Barack Obama and substitute "an African-American candidate." Read her words, eliminate "Obama," substitute "an African-American candidate" and contemplate the implications.

2. Change the time-frame of the HRC remarks to, say, November, December or January of the contest. Read them--even retaining Obama's name--and contemplate what this progressive, liberal Democrat, Hillary Rodham Clinton, is insinuating. It's the campaign rhetoric of the 1950's, Mississippi-style.

Had Nixon, or would McCain, use such blatantly racist language, they would have been and would be crucified by not only the liberal, but by most non-David Duke press organizations.

HRC has the so-called "fire in the belly" supposedly required of a president. But that's all she's got.

I think the Oakland Raiders football team has as its motto: Grace Under Fire. A helluva slogan, for sure...even if it's not exactly true.

Under fire, Hillary's slogan could be: Base Under Fire.

Remember when George Allen (R-VA) called an Indo-American "Macaca"? It ended Allen's bid for the GOP nomination.

It's really bizarre when the Republicans hold their candidates to higher standards of racial sensitivity than do the Democrats. At least this will put to rest the canard that the media are out to get Hillary Clinton.

Obama 08!

The republicans do not hold their candidate to any standard what so ever. He is just holding his fire until the right time.
