Carcasses back to haunt

Carcasses

This brings joy to my heart.  “ Three years ago, during an appearance on CBS, Sen. Hillary Clinton stated that she agreed with the overarching premise of John McCain's Iraq policy: that America's commitment to the war shouldn't be based on time frames but rather on the level of troop casualties. She even cited, as McCain now regularly does, that the United States would be well suited to follow a model for troop presence based on South Korea, Japan, or Germany. ~ The quote, which resurfaced on liberal¹ websites² late Sunday night, underscores both the evolution of Clinton's (and most every other 'crat's) stance on Iraq and the war itself. [Huff 'n Puff] ” My feeling is that Obama is unelectable, but Hillary has lately positioned herself so far to the right that she may even be right of McCain.  Too bad Hilly, the people who own your party hate your guts!  USA! USA! USA! But wait ,,,, speaking of words that come back to haunt ... “ Original Huffington Post: (since updated with a McCain denial) At a dinner party in Los Angeles not long after the 2000 election, I was talking to a man and his wife, both prominent Republicans. The conversation soon turned to the new president. "I didn't vote for George Bush" the man confessed. "I didn't either," his wife added. Their names: John and Cindy McCain (Cindy told me she had cast a write-in vote for her husband). The fact that this man was so angry at what George Bush had done to him, and at what Bush represented for their party, that he did not even vote for him in 2000 shows just how far he has fallen since then in his hunger for the presidency. By abandoning his core principles and embracing Bush -- both literally and metaphorically -- he has morphed into an older and crankier version of the man he couldn't stomach voting for in 2000. ” I not only have no problem believing that, I have always more or less assumed it.  Blah-blah-blah. I was going to say, " Don't you love it when Liberals talk about abandoning core principles?," but quickly realized that Liberals seldom abandon theirs, e.g.  - "Do and say  whatever it takes to get elected."  Anyway, Arianna, everyone knows that John McCain could have done the nation a great service had he bailed out over North Vietnam without a parachute, but he's - this is the good part - he's still far and away better than any democrat.  Prevailing Mood = 17
