Hillraisers unite!

I have been unusually silent during the primaries so far, other than my expressing my outrage when MoveOn.org backed Obama (which I still think was stupid). I have been dumbfounded by the Bush-esque momentum Obama has gained over the past couple of months. I say Bush-esque because it's simply unbelievable that someone with his lack of experience and naivety has become so popular so fast. I just don't see the appeal. Unlike what he preaches, Obama is a politician like any other. Every time he says Hillary voted to go to war in Iraq, and the he didn't, is another game of dirty politics.

We know exactly what Hillary and all the other Democrats were voting for that day in the Senate. It was permission to act in an emergency, not an order to go to war. Bush, being the asshole that he is, ran with it after lying to Congress. He lied again by sending his cronies to push false intelligence that we were in immediate danger. Why is it that Bary Bonds and Roger Clemons are facing perjury charges and not Rumsfeld and Powell? I just don't get it. We were lied to... all of us. But no, Obama likes to say he never voted for that emergency measure.

Ask this: why didn't Obama vote for the Iraq war measure? He wasn't a frickin' Senator yet! He wasn't even in the Senate to vote. Duh you fuck, of course you didn't vote because you were still getting your ass wiped by your mama! And let me ask you this... of the circumstances presented to the Senate that day and the picture that was painted, Obama thinks it would have been smarter to vote no? What if it was real? He would rather we be left in harms way without a plan? I don't think so. It's this exact kind of inexperience that will doom us if Obama wins this election. You need to think and act quickly, but smartly and deliberately and Obama simply isn't capable of that responsibility... not yet. He very well could make a great president, but he needs more time, more experience, more wisdom.

Obama also likes to think he can change the way the game of politics is played. Good luck, buddy! No president could ever affect that change... it's up to Congress and the people to force those changes. It's great campaign fodder, but they are promises he has no ability to keep. I have news for Mr. Obama... this election is about far more than his naive promises and a vote he didn't even participate in.

Fortunately, the people of Rhode Island, Ohio and Texas saw that last night. I am so glad Hillary took these three states. It means a refreshed and renewed campaign, a spike strip in Obama's momentum and a ramp up of hers. The next six weeks to Pennsylvania will be long and arduous, and I can only hope the thick wool Obama has pulled over millions of eyes continues to fray and people see reality. I will continue to support Hillary with both my voice and my money until she wins the White House and takes our country back from the most destructive administration in history. I invite you to do the same.
