94. Pretty graphs that mean nothing

Oct 2012

Who threatened to "obliterate Iran" with Nuclear weapons?
Who supported an amendment to the constitution that would make Flag burning a crime?

Or, what about Clinton is more left than Obama? Not her stance on the Iraq War, not her stance on Glass-Steagall.

Not her support of H1-b Visas?

And most certainly not her willingness to go into Libya. If you think that was lefty, there are many leftists that will disabuse you of that notion.

Let me ask you point blank, if Hillary won in 2008, and we were at this point, would you be as harsh and critical of her as you are of Obama?

And before you say "she would not be", she would have had the same blue dog congress, some of whom she supported, and the GOP would make the same committment to stall,lag and make her a one term president.

Would you then slam her as hard?
