Hillary Wounded In Drive By In Dem H'wood

Former Clinton bag man David Geffen pulled up to Mo Do's Left Coast copy desk and popped a cap into Hillary Clinton's ass-pirations of the Presidential sort.

I don’t think that another incredibly polarizing figure, no matter how smart she is and no matter how ambitious she is — and God knows, is there anybody more ambitious than Hillary Clinton? — can bring the country together.

“I don’t think anybody believes that in the last six years, all of a sudden Bill Clinton has become a different person,” Mr. Geffen says, adding that if Republicans are digging up dirt, they’ll wait until Hillary is the nominee to use it. “I think they believe she’s the easiest to defeat.”

“It’s not a very big thing to say, ‘I made a mistake’ on the war, and typical of Hillary Clinton that she can’t,” Mr. Geffen says.

“I’m tired of hearing James Carville on television....

Bleeding but very much alive, the former First Lady reached for a shiv and bypassed Geffen to take a slash at his new number one political whore. "This corner belongs to me, Biatch!" Fork over the dough! Pimp Daddy Bill is apparently unavailable for comment, maybe he's gone to the mattresses in his Harlem digs.

Clinton Communications Director Howard Wolfson issued the following statement today demanding that Barack Obama disavow personal attacks that his campaign finance chair made against Senator Clinton in this morning's New York Times:

"While Senator Obama was denouncing slash and burn politics yesterday, his campaign's finance chair was viciously and personally attacking Senator Clinton and her husband.

"If Senator Obama is indeed sincere about his repeated claims to change the tone of our politics, he should immediately denounce these remarks, remove Mr. Geffen from his campaign and return his money.

"While Democrats should engage in a vigorous debate on the issues, there is no place in our party or our politics for the kind of personal insults made by Senator Obama's principal fundraiser.

Fa! I am loving this. The hippies are at each others' throats, and we haven't even gotten into the *real* stumping period for the primaries.

Watch for Newt to step up to the plate in about 9 months or so after all the dirt gets pulled out of every liberal corner, and utterly decimate the Dhiimcretins.

*Dhimicretins (DNC)

My, aren't the Libs quiet. Geffen called both their stars liars, to boot. LOL

[darcy_lane]

Pass the popcorn! The Republicans can infight with the best of them, but the champion party of 'destroy our own' with savage and brutal personal attacks is the Dems (just ask Joe Lieberman)

[w3]

What does this even mean?

"Not since the Vietnam War has there been this level of disappointment in the behavior of America throughout the world..."

How do we measure disappointment with America? By the number of American films awarded something at Cannes? Are you having to apologize more profusely for being American during your visits to St. Tropez?

Get over yourselves, liberals.

Don't you know it. :)

So ... non-wingnuts are supposed to be sad that the Dem candidates are taking shots at each other? Evidently this is the first election cycle you geniuses have ever experienced.

Morons.

Geffen's little love-feast for Obama raised a bit over a million dollars. Only one press guy was allowed in. A little bit ago, John Edwards had a similar party - he only got about a hundred thousand.

The Left is consumed with hatred for Bush, and it's affecting their judgement. Here, for example, is Bill Maher:

"HBO host and political analyst Bill Maher, who two years ago said Christians suffer from a neurological disorder that "stops people from thinking," last night unleashed a scorching tirade of insults on President Bush, calling him a rube, dolt, vain half-wit and "a Gilligan who cannot find his a--" .... The man is a rube. He is a dolt. He is a yokel on the world stage. He is a Gilligan who cannot find his a-- for two hands. He is a vain half-wit who interrupts one incoherent sentence with another incoherent sentence [audience cheers and applause]. And I hope I'm not piling on."

Obama is a nice, personable guy. But let's just look at his record in the Senate, at his qualifications. Asked about his background in foreign affairs, he replied, "I majored in International Relations".

Great thing to put on a resume, for a law firm, but that doesn't get you anywhere near the head of the line for President.

[Jeff]

"So ... non-wingnuts are supposed to be sad that the Dem candidates are taking shots at each other? Evidently this is the first election cycle you geniuses have ever experienced."

No but apparently the Dems haven't run an election before, they are taking shots at each other and the Republicans are just sitting back watching the emplosion from a safe distance... Notice McCain, Giuliani, and Romney and digging up dirt on each other. Oh, and who said Barrack Hussein Obama went to a madrassa? Hillary's camp released that...

By the time the real campaigning happens the Democrat party candidates will be so destroyed that they won't have a snow balll's chance in Hell of winning the election. The best thing any Republican could do right now is just fan the flames.

Barrack Hussein Obama, in a terrible incident called our great ally in the War on Terror, John Howard, weak for not sending more troops.

John Edwards hired two f***ing great f***ing blog to give him some f***ing terrible press.

Hillary is on the fence more than Jon Kerry, she is Dukakis in drag.

You libs better get ready for January 2009 when Rudy Giuliani is sworn in. But hey, at least you will still have Senator Clinton.

[Purple Avenger]

"if Republicans are digging up dirt, they’ll wait until Hillary is the nominee to use it"

The R's won't need to dig up dirt. The moonbats will do all that work for them. They hate Hillary more than republicans do ;->

[LOL]

more proof that right-wing politicians are nutjobs.

[TJM]

Uh, Jeff, Hillary's camp did not release any news about Obama schooling. That would have been the Washington Times through their co-owned magazine "Insight". Must you swallow so noisily?

According to the recent Gallup poll, Rudy has less chance of being elected than McCain and neither has a very good chance. (http://hotlineblog.nationaljournal.com/archives/2007/02/usa_todaygallup.html)

So you think a guy with no experience other than making money will be sworn in in 09? Maybe Rudy will announce after he takes the oath that he's divorcing wife 3,while new mistress accompanies him to Inaugural Ball.
Lo,how low the "religious right' has fallen.

[Rob Kaufman]

Poor pathetic Jeff, swallowing the Kool-aid I see. Strange how you can't help but point out Senator Obama's middle name but yet I don't see you using anyone else's middle name. Could that be because you are just another lemming following the right wing talking points? It is okay, you don't need to keep proving you are an idiot, I and everyone else with at least a double digit IQ already know.

[templar knight]

Well...well...the Democrats right here on this blog said that they were headed for an easy victory in '08, and probably even '12 and beyond. Their candidate, whoever it may be, is not a shoe-in.

The Dems were also running against a Republican Congress in '06, and they will not have this advantage in '08. As a matter of fact, the Republicans will have the advantage of running against the Democratic Congress, which could be a very important factor in deciding the winner. Regardless, the Democrats aren't going to run away with any elections.

[Legalize]

Jeff, the Dems aren't "digging up dirt" on each other; they are criticizing - vocally and strongly - each others' policy positions and campaign tactics. That's what happens in a national debate; I know that teh wingerzz aren't exactly keen on honest discussion, but that's the way things go. As for your obtuse suggestion that the GOP candidates aren't at each others' throats yet, evidently you just don't pay attention to what right wing types have been saying about all 3 front-runners. In any event, if you think Rudy the librul is going to get past the barking loonies of the GOP base unscathed, this really MUST be the first election cycle you've experienced.

On the other hand, I do agree that he would be the most formidable of the GOP candidates in the General election. He is pretty much the ideal GOP candidate: corrupt, dishonest, grand-standing, fascist, and entirely unprincipled.

The Dems are more aggressive at this point because there are clear front-runners. One with enormous wealth, experience, and a powerful machine behind her; and another who is currently riding a huge popular wave. The GOP is too splintered and fractured, and the only viable candidates out there HAVE to take a hard line on the war and other GOP issues. In other words, they can't afford to show their differences at this point; they can't afford to go after each others' records because they are ALL suspect. McCain has already hired the same smear merchants that Bush used against him in 2000. Do you think they're just going to stay on the shelf? Do you think Rudy and Mitt aren't going to be ravaged by those to the right of them?

[Dan Riehl]

LMAO

"Jeff, the Dems aren't "digging up dirt" on each other; they are criticizing - vocally and strongly - each others' policy positions and campaign tactics."

"God knows, is there anybody more ambitious than Hillary Clinton? — can bring the country together.

“It’s not a very big thing to say, ‘I made a mistake’ on the war, and typical of Hillary Clinton that she can’t,” Mr. Geffen says."

[Dan Riehl]

And dont' forget Obama accusing Hillary of paying off a pol from SC. Nah, no dirt flying here. ha ha ha

[templar knight]

Legalize, are you trying to resurrect "Fractured Fairy Tales", with an emphasis on fairy as regards you? My goodness, the Dems are more aggressive because they are clear front-runners. That would be stupid policy if it were the case, as fighting and smearing each other is likely to hurt the chances of both. And Hilary has enormous wealth(yep, Arab oil money), experience, and a powerful machine(I thought you liberals hated machine politics) behind her, huh? And Obama is currently riding a huge popular wave for what reason? What has he done? Yeah, that's the problem with Obama. He hasn't done anything and has little experience, which makes his election highly implausible. But dream on, my friend, and share those mushrooms with LOL. He drinks that tea, too.

[Jeff]

Legalize talks before thinking... Dog bites man...

[Vanderleun]

Calling Hillary "ambitious" is a "personal insult?!" These people have lost all comprehension of the personal insult. If you wanted to do a personal insult you might say that "Hillary has an ass so wide that she has to have two personal fashion designers just to cover it." And that's only warming up.

To say that it is an insult to call Hillary "ambitious" is to say that it would be an insult to say the sun is out in the daytime.

[LOL]

more homophobia from TK, he just can't let a thread pass without fixating on our sexuality. I wonder why that is

[templar knight]

LOL, are you taking up for Legalize, the guy who called you a clit just yesterday? Why would he do that? Does he know something the rest of us don't?

[LOL]

sorry i must've missed this "clit" post. I didn't even know conservatives acknowledged the existence of such a thing on riehl's site. Can you link me to this post? Because Dan posts a lot and has no search function :[

[Rob Kaufman]

Jeff, showing off that Mensa intelligence again I see. Just one question though about this from your post earlier, "watching the emplosion from a safe distance", when did implosion get changed to emplosion? Thank you for once again proving that you are almost as big of dimwit as templar.

[templar knight]

A "dimwit" you say, Rob, or is that Bob. Frankly, I'm such a dimwit I can't keep up with all Bob's sock puppets. Surge on, Rob or Bob, or whoever you are.

LOL, I commented on it yesterday, at the thread on Jennifer Mee, the girl with the hiccups. Go see for yourself, but prepare to be shocked...shocked...I tell you.

[ME]

How to tell if Republicans are scared of a candidate:

They proclaim "bring it on, we'd love to see THAT race" or "that candidate can never win" ... as if they are so sure they will kick that candidate's ass in the general election that they basically laugh it off.

See Howard Dean. When asked if they would personally vote for him, most americans reponded "yes." When asked if they thought he was "electable", most americans responded "no". Gee? I wonder who convinced americans that dean was unelectable? Sacred-as-shit republicans, that's who.

And they've admitted as much since. (I can't find the quote, but I think it was Mehlman who said the last candidate they wanted to face was howard dean, because he offered a real compelling alternative).

For the revisionists out there (and there are a lot when it comes to howard dean), he had already lost Iowa to Kerry BEFORE the scream ever happened (Kerry benefitted from a huge ad buy with establishment money from Washington - some speculate it was right wingers who wanted dean to dissapear). The scream didn't "do in" howard dean...he was already done when that happened.

[Jeff]

Yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawww!

You are right, the scream didn't do Dean in, it was his idiotic liberal policies... ironically the same ones that cost Jon Kerry (who, by the way. served in Viet Nam)

[templar knight]

LOL, I was wrong, scar was the scum bucket who called you a clit. I guess I owe Legalize an apology. Damn, I'm sorry, Legalize, for wrongfully accusing you.

[LOL]

very cute TK. it was scar though, not legalize. I wouldn't expect wingnuts to be able to read all that well though

[Jeff]

LOL, at least TK manages to formulate his sentences properly.

[LOL]

wow jeff, thanks for the grammar work. ill be sure to copy-edit my posts before i turn them in for the final exam next time.

LOL, don't worry about Jeff's grading, heck anyone who thinks implosion is emplosion shouldn't be critiquing anyone else.
