Barack Hussein Obama = Osama Bin Laden


From The Swamp

A lawyer in a predominantly Democratic suburb of Cleveland relates this tale to The Swamp on the day before the all-important Ohio primary:

So last night around dinner time, the phone rings. It’s the Hillary campaign–official number, per the caller ID. The woman on the other end asks me if Hillary can count on my support Tuesday. I say I have not decided.

She asks what would help me decide. I say, “Well . . . maybe she can make Bill her vice president.” She does not know how to take me, of course, but has to assume I am serious. “I don’t think she can do that.” “Bill will have a significant role in major decisions, though, won’t he?” I ask. “Oh, certainly he will be very involved. Do you like Bill?” “Very much.” I reply.

She then launches into a two-minute spiel on all the very specific initiatives and proposals Hillary has put forth on health care, the war in Iraq, etc., etc. At the end of her spiel, she says, “And we haven’t heard anything that specific from Osama bin Laden.”

I say, “You did not just say that.” She replies, “I’m sorry . . . just a slip of the tongue.” She then thanks me for my time and encourages me to vote for Hillary on Tuesday.


Yeah. All those "slips of the tongue." If Hillary doesn't win decisively today then she needs to get out of this race. Period. The fact that she's willing to do all of the dirty work for the Republicans is telling. This isn't about making this country beter, it's about her own desire for power and her willingness to do anything (including destroy the party) to do it. The worst thing that could happen to the Democrats in the fall is for Hillary Clinton to get the nomination.
