Clinton Curtains?
January 28th, 2008According to the Chinese, 2008 is the year of the rat. And by this time Hillary Clinton is smelling one.
It is not shaping up to be a good month for the Hill-Billy Klan. Aside from getting an old fashioned ass-whumpin’ down south (you know, that area she once lived), it appears that every major patriarch, matriarch, and court jester of the Democrat party is endorsing Barack “Don’t Check My Record” Obama.
Those individuals not important enough for their endorsement to count — and by this I mean John Kerry — are spending their time being Barack’s pit bulls (I wonder if Obama and Michael Vick share any ancestry?)
Now the Kennedy’s — the rum running Democrat dynasty — are coming out like bootleggers at a frat party to back Barack, proving once again that their misogyny trumps their bigotry … on most days.
On Sunday, Caroline Kennedy wrote in Hillary’s new home town paper that Obama is inspiring in the same way her father was. We’ll ignore what a put-down to JFK this is given that John had a spine (broken though it was), had fought in a war, and had a voting record in congress that presented a trackable baseline for his policy positions. Obama has none of the above. For weak minded mavens like Caroline, inspiration trumps freedom, constitution, and substance any day.
Normally I would leave Special Olympic wannabes like Caroline Kennedy alone, but she presents too wonderful of a target to ignore (was that poor judgement on my part to use the words “Kennedy” and “target” in the same sentence?) In her Op/Ed she scrawled:
Most of us would prefer to base our voting decision on policy differences … I want a president who understands that his responsibility is to articulate a vision and encourage others to achieve it …and who can lift our spirits”
Actually dear, we want a president who will abide by the Constitution, not rob us blind, and otherwise leave us the Hell alone. But such fundamentals cannot be clearly observed from a penthouse atop an ivory tower, and thus your are forgiven the oversight.
The good new is that soon Obama’s campaign will be undone by the act of one man, whose reputation is so poisonous outside of is native realm that the very mention of his name cases strong men to shudder, children to cry, and young women to avoid riding in sedans over bridges.
Ted Kennedy is set to endorse Obama.
For all of Bill Clinton’s poorly masked, race dividing, borderline slanderous meddling in this year’s presidential contest, it will have done far less harm to Barack than the endorsement of Boston’s own public drunk. Obama, you should be concerned. But take advice from Teddy himself: if you don’t panic, everything will go swimmingly.
At least Obama will know who to turn to to drown his sorrows comes November.
