Robert Stacey McCain asks the question:
Was it merely a coincidence that ABC News decided to air those videos (videos which have been around for many months) at this crucial point in the Democratic presidential race? Is it coincidental that Jeremiah Wright’s racially provocative rants made national news in the run-up to the key primary in Pennsylvania, a state with a population that’s 86% white?
Yeah, probably just a coincidence. But I’m old enough to remember the Lewinsky scandal and something Hillary said at that time:
“One of my husband’s favorite old Southern sayings . . . is that if you find a turtle on a fence post, it didn’t get there by accident.”
Obama’s supporters ought to take a long, hard look at how this particular turtle ended up on top of that particular fence post.
As Elim Garak once said — I believe in coincidences. Coincidences happen every day. But I don’t trust coincidences.

If the Clintons are behind Pastor Wright story- Remember the old saying “What goes round Comes round. As the Spitzer Story reminds us of the Clinton Story. “I never touched that girl”. Gov.Spitzer was all but tarred and feathed in 24 hrs. Clinton
escaped impeachment. He discraced OUR WHITE HOUSE to the WORLD. And the Clintons have the gall to want to live in the White House again.

The Clintons and their network have shown their true c o l o r s again. “Shame on you”, Clintons and supporters! The resignation of Ferraro for her racist remarks was meaningless and definitely not an apology, just an overt act. As to Hillary’s “apology”, a farce, she really knows how to turn the tears on and off! When Powers resigned from the Obama campaign, her statement was a true apology, though unnecessary. Had Powers comment about Hellery included the word Rotten, excuse me, Rodham with monster, Powers’ apology even then would not have been due.
What voters need to be reminded is that Hillary is the jilted wife of an adulterous liar who womanized women no less than Spits Sir (excuse me, Spitzer aka Spritzer, aka Puttin’ on the spritz big time). C’mon Americans, these are the people who are governing this country’s family values with core values like theirs? Personal lives do affect the values of people who govern. The mere thought of letting Silly Billy Boy get near the White House again to womanize more than before is and should be repugnant.
Isn’t it ironic how convenient Slick Billy used LBJ over MLK (who has a National Holiday in his honor!) Lest we forget where Billy boy found it convenient to smoke pot (excuse me, inhale pot and save his own neck while protesting against LBJ) in England during LBJ’s Vietnam War for which LBJ will never be honored.
The truth of White Water may never be known. However, because of the stakes involved in demanding a wholesome candidate for the highest office in the greatest country in the world, may the results of the investigation always be subject to question—her word against his(deceased).
Of course, Clintonville has tried in every which way to refute the aforementioned and to stoop to any level to get elected. (Getting Florida delegates, Hillary—sounds like another Bush ploy in the making.) However, be reminded of speakers for JFK, the true author of “LBJ’s” civil rights, and Eugene McCarthy, the absolute is held by HIM and, too often than not, isn’t it hard to accept the truth.
Had Barack Obama’s judicious lead to a higher road in American Politics and his good judgment on international politics been followed, ALL of the people of the United States would be two trillion dollars richer with thousands of lives saved too!
