had the infamous 'drug comments' thing been directed at a REPUBLICAN...

[HuffleClaw]

would the current weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth be happening? i rather doubt it.

[Joe the Revelator]

1. and if my Aunt had balls..

she'd be my Uncle.

[Lerkfish]

2. that is neither here nor there

hypotheticals do not excuse realities

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

12. Hypotheticals are how mature, intelligent people analyze ethics

[Lerkfish]

21. analyze, perhaps, excuse, no.

[Renew Deal]

3. Gnashing of teeth? Maybe not. But Gore and Kerry never called Bush a drunk either.

You never heard their campaign's call bush a drunk.

[Catherine Vincent]

4. The Obama supporters are definitely outraged about this.

They've been posting anti-Clinton threads every minute!

[Lerkfish]

6. um well maybe when you imply their candidate a drug dealer, maybe they have the right

to be a little upset.

s'ok in my book for them to be righteously angry, especially because it carries racist undertones.

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

13. racist undertones in your mind, apparently

[Lerkfish]

15. yup, I don't apologize for thinking when you imply a black man is a drug dealer

there are racist undertones. I take it you know african americans personally?

if you do, go ask them if there are racist undertones to that remark. You might discover it is not just in my mind.

[madrchsod]

17. no you are wrong lerkfish.....

that`s what "hillary is 44" is for...they are the ones who use all those "cute" racist code words.

[Lerkfish]

20. ok, thanks for the correction.

[madrchsod]

22. well-->

:thumbsup:

[Lerkfish]

26. sorry, I thought my sarcasm was implied

next time I"ll add a sarcasm tag.

[Catherine Vincent]

25. I had just read what was said in another thread.

That guy was so wrong for saying that. I think he should be let go.

[Renew Deal]

11. It's more than the Obama people.

I've seen others mixed it. It's just a fucked up thing to say.

[madrchsod]

14. i`m a dennis supporter and i`m outraged at this

the clinton staff decided to give the right wing talking points for the next few days about obama`s drug use and it`s a cheap dirty trick worthy of karl rove. it seems odd that they would drop this pile of shit after penn got his ass handed to him last week end.

as far as i`m concerned hillary did`t have to pull any of this shit but for some reason she has decided to do this. if i were a clinton supporter i would be wondering what went wrong and who is responsible.

[ThatPoetGuy]

16. How is this new?

The Obama supporters are the most negative group I've seen on this site, bar none. For months they've done nothing but attack, attack, attack.

[Lerkfish]

18. wow. weird. I had a flashback or something

it almost sounded like you accused obama supporters for what clinton supporters just did.

I had to have been on drugs because that sounded too slimey of a spin for anyone person to use.

[Renew Deal]

24. Then you haven't been here much.

One of the other candidates supporters have a full blown attack machine fed by at least two external sites.

[sandnsea]

5. Why didn't the Clintons ever do that, that's half the point

They haven't hit the Bushies on anything real in 6 years and any time anybody else did, they came out sabatoged it.

[asdjrocky]

7. Why didn't they do it against repuglickins then-

Like when Bush ran in 00, or 04?

[Pushed To The Left]

8. The whole point is that it's being directed at a fellow Democrat

Democrats are supposed to be on the same side. There is nothing wrong with Democratic candidates criticizing each other on the issues, but when it gets into smearing and personal attacks it only helps the Republicans. I live in California, where a fairly unpopular Republican governor easily won re-election because the Democratic candidates destroyed each other during the primary. Democrats should not smear fellow Democrats this way!

[tabasco]

9. An attack on teenage drug use is scurrilous, no matter the target.

I would condemn it if the target was a republican.

[donheld]

10. God damn you all to hell

I step away from DU for a few minutes and a drug war breaks out. :crazy:

[madrchsod]

19. this morning it was beat up on dennis.....

[rufus dog]

23. I expect Repukes to use these tactics

and it is the Chicago way in my book. That Team Hillary did it reinforces my opinion of her, and she is fucking open to the same shit back! It is the Chicago way.


Edit: By the way I see the Hillary supporters posting this over and over. It is no fucking big deal he inhaled he didn't come up with some lame ass answer.
