In other words, you contradicted yourself and I could care less (or couldn’t?) if you plead to us your profound personal recognition that race…matters… (whew! That translation wasn’t unhelpful – not!), the point remains that no matter how profound you are in your unshallow understanding, you still went to bat for Clinton, and you used the arguments of colorblind white guilt which ironically (or intentionally?) end up hurting those oppressed by racial stigma.

So perhaps you aren’t as unshallow as you think?

@Michael Turner, listen tough guy if I had any venom left to stew in I would have lashed out and sunk it into your jugular with nothing less than, are you ready? “Altavista that’s what you are”. I mean I could have said that but I didn’t. So just cool it, Mister.

ON THE OTHER HAND, eight years of reminding Marc Cooper of the sweetest campaign promise of the new century. That he would take his uttlery debunked by reality world view, his cheap bigotry, his utterly incompent ass and move it to the land of Cummings!

Hillary, you tantalizing nymph!

Again, at least we have a social democratic party. When Americans with social-democratic views start boycotting racist centre/right candidates like HRC, you will too. Its up to you.

Bet you find the NDP a capitalist tool!

Adios Rudy! Farewell Edwards! Hello Ralph!
McCain vs. Clinton?

By ALEXANDER COCKBURN
and JEFFREY ST. CLAIR

Before his handlers told the press Bill Clinton wouldn’t be taking any more questions, the former president gave it as his considered opinion that his wife and John McCain are a lot alike, and that assuming the two become their parties’ nominees, the fall campaign would be “the most cordial in history.” Setting aside such well-known traits as ill-temper towards subordinates, what Mrs Clinton and McCain certainly do have in common is a readiness to hang their own party out to dry when it’s a matter of personal advancement.

The problems run deep in the culture, the politics and the economy. We should think as much about where we’d like to be in Nov. 2012 as in Nov. 2008…

The American left does have a problem with moral narcissism, having an insatiable desire to find moral fault in any political figure with real power.

I don’t, however, see any reason to believe that Edwards or Obama won’t face exactly the same right-wing headwinds that so bent Bill Clinton. Maybe they’d compromise less, but I doubt it.

Let me insert the words, “and American left that can’t let go of Clinton hatred.”

As I have long stated, this is yet another victory of the right: they have so inflamed Democratic voters with their 16-plus year hysterical denunciation of the Clintons (for ALL the wrong reasons), that the Democratic base is determined to put the Clintons into once again into power for ALL the wrong reasons….those being to stick it against the “Clinton haters” (who spend time, incidently, sharing cordial and loving conversations and yuks with the Clintons…see Karl Rove hamming it up with Bill and Hil, Right wing demagogues who funded the “smear campaigns” against the Clintons visiting with Clinton over dinner and at his Harlem “office”…thank you recent Vanity Fair, sheesh…).

If Democratic voters really wanted to “stick it” to the far right, they would put into power a far more independent thinking, more progressive, kick-the-system-in-the-ass individual like Barak Obama, or John Edwards.

Still, my own governor (Kathleen Sebelius, a prominent figure of the DLC) yesterday endorsed Obama. So MAYBE there is hope…

He’s going to be so much fun to run against in the fall.

I cut and paste that just to make it a little easier to remember.

There will ALWAYS be elements of the American right that can’t let go of Clinton hatred. But they’ll be confined to the seedier parts of talkradio and blogs, while the RNC feasts on photos of Obama in a bernouse or Bill shaking hands with Yassir Arafat.

The RNC talking points this fall are going to be all fear of brown people, all the time. And that goes whether it’s Hillary or Obama or Al Gore, for that matter.

Never underestimate the canniness of GOP politicos. Granted, they have a natural advantage in the media, but they play a very good game and won’t be dumb enough to try and make big Bill’s sex thrills an issue.

How soon we forget that Clinton’s approval ratings were never higher than just after the Lewinsky nonsense…

The GOP is the war party. They know very well they have no credibility
