I think we will be able to look back and say we read the article that got Obama elected. The watershed moment when content creators, such as the NYT, took sides and influenced what people actually were thinking about. It's kind of fun to be part of a little bit of history.
But, we’re all color-blind and gender-blind here, aren’t we?
The real issue is the lack of a meaningful energy policy, the $10 Trillion national debt, with $400 billion in annual interest, the loss of competitiveness, the dumbing down of our schools, the $45 grand per year tuition for our kids, and the highest taxes in the world. (Look it up, it’s not Sweden, it is the US).
We pay Federal, State, County and City taxes. We pay gas tax, electricity tax, water tax, 10% of all airfares is taxed. Taxes cost the average taxpayer more than food, shelter, energy, and clothing combined. A fine legacy from the “greatest generation.”
We may not like him, but Romney is the only one running who has tackled these issues successfully. Massachusetts was in a deep hole (tax and spend for decades) with no easy fixes. Are Hillary or Obama even talking about their solutions?
Bill Clinton inherited a $150 billion per year peace dividend from defense cuts Bush I put in place. He also muscled the price of gas down to $0.86 per gallon. These two things put a tremendous amount of money back into our economy. Energy costs touch 40% of the elements that make up the GDP.
For the price of this trillion-dollar war, we could have put a solar panel on every roof in America; we could have put real reforms into our education system.
Bill Clinton’s welfare reforms took away a huge entitlement, mostly from the African Americans who supported him. He was the work kind of bait-and-switch politician. He bit the hand that elected him. Hillary keeps talking about her 30 years of public service, but in reality, she has only been elected once, as the carpetbag Senator from NY, and would have easily lost to JFK Jr., who conveniently (for her) died before filing his candidacy. He was a legitimate resident of NY. What has Hillary done for NY? She has spent her entire term campaigning for the Presidency. Constituent services? “The public be damned…”
Bill Clinton was impeached, but not for a blowjob, for treason. He and Hillary accepted millions of dollars in illegal campaign contributions from Macao, China, and elsewhere. He then repaid his new Chinese funders with the Navy base at Long Beach, Level 22 military secrets, and screwed over Taiwan, who we are sworn by treaty to defend. This was the page one story, until the blowjob, pushed it back to page 48. Hillary was deeply involved with this. It cost Al Gore the presidency. Bill Clinton’s foreign policy was a joke. I am not defending Bush II, because he has made the world hate us, for which we would all forgive him if we were paying less than $1.00 per gallon of fuel.
So the American people are easily distracted, and almost want to be misled. The media can smell an easy story, and has not patience or backbone for the real truth. Voter ignorance is remarkable, and we are all complicit.
We hold the power. But politicians like Bill and Hillary want you to feel that you must be protected by a government that holds your money, makes your decisions, and turns us all into “the little people.” Starve the beast. We need protection from our politicians, especially the corrupt, power hungry, and visionless idiots we seem to elect.
It is all slight of hand, while they reach into your wallet to fleece you or your livelihood.
1. Transfer wealth from the poor to the rich
2. Focus all energies on topics such as race and abortion to distract the public from the fact that #1 is happening.
Hillary's past will come to haunt her in many ways. Both Clintons have used the African-American community at their whim, and never paid back any of their debts.
I can't wait until she starts to claim that Obama has promised the Minister Farrakhan the Secretary of State cabinet post; Jesse Jackson the Department of Labor, Queen Latifa, Health and Human Services, Opera, Treasury; Whoppi, Dept of the Interior, etc.
Hillary is still trying to tap into the deep racism she knows is there.
It is shameful, and reveals her manipulative nature.
She wants to take a meritocracy and paint it black in her own twisted, and divisive way.
Still still thinks it is "her turn" and that anyone who get in her way, will get what they deserve. That is not justice or leadership.
It wasn't a slur. It was the politically correct term at the time. Nobody used BLACK. African-American? Puhleeze. It just didn't happen. Most negroes back then couldn't find Africa on a map.
My immediate predecessor, Saint Lyndon -- the mere mention of which started the latest race war -- used to pronounce "negro" as if the "e" was an "i". If you don't believe me, listen to his tapes. Or you can listen to LBJ's very own smoking gun tape.
Actually it all comes down to what her legs look like. Come to think of it, I don't believe I have ever seen a pic of Hills in a skirt. Hmmm.
In this case, you are missing the joke right in front of your face... now exactly what is the 'N' word?
Any of you give any thought to the fact that you're arguing with... satire?

Today they accuse him of supporting the nuclear industry.
They are going after every candidate with a fine-tooth comb
I am I the only one here using a Mac?
What sweet irony...
Ok, yeah I know Ann's just flapping her gums trying to save Mitt's bacon and that she'll just backtrack faster than you can say Donald Rumsfeld if the election actually comes down to those two. But still you know dumb crap like that will come up again.
And both words wouldn't show someones racism. If anything, it would show their age.
Something's happened in this country in the past 8 years. These are words. Don't pay attention to them. Now, if there was evidence that Hillary was portrayed in Mississippi Burning, then there would be a problem. We need to realize that words are not the same a actions.
We need to change that, and I am the candidate to lead that change.
Obama / Winfrey in '08

We know how that system works, and how City cops make that work, with slap sticks and fists.
From Wikipedia:
"Negro is an archaic racial term referring to people who have skin that has high melanin content, referring to persons of African ethnic origin. Prior to the shift in the lexicon of American and worldwide classification of race and ethnicity in the late 1960s, the appellation was accepted as a normal neutral formal term both by those of African descent as well as non-African blacks."
I'm half black half Hispanic (woohoo) and my mom worked for the United Negro College fund where she met my very black father. And yes - that was NEGRO on the organization's title. My dad is not very old but he has always used the word Negro to refer to causes otherwise known as "African-American" - a term he's less fond of since it implies we're not as American as just "Americans". He uses "blacks" when describing individuals - and usually Negroes for the members of a cause or organization. The point is that the word is not condescending. Is the context. I don't particularly think much of miss Clinton. Not because she's a woman, or Caucasian, but very much a product of the political machine. However I will say i don't find her use of the term racist or demeaning. I think those trying to make it appear so, are hoping for a race clash! I hope smart people will stop taking the bait.
It's called the fold.
from the Oxford Dictionary:
"ORIGIN via Spanish and Portuguese from Latin niger, nigr- ‘black.’ "
Anyone ever see Nigeria on the map?
What I'd really like to know is if we can get to the point of seriously considering a black man or a woman for president, does it mean we can stop racial profiling in affirmative action and start helping people based on their socio-economic classifications?
Can we stop having a "black history month"? or do we need a brown, white and yellow history month going forward?
Should we stop having "miss black teen" pageants? how about job or educational advantages?
Certainly some programs were necessary to kick start the shift from the old days / ways...but what is the end point?
The success of Obama, or Powell, or Rice, or the new black CEOs, the lack of racial divide in music, relationships, etc.. mean that at least for the younger generations the only thing holding people back is their own choices.
Barry Goldwater is original sin? Come on - she could have worked with Helms.
Now it looks like Obama supporters are playing the race card, for no good reason. Which looks desperate, Machiavellian, and just, well, Clintonesque.
Not cool Steve.
Thought the Goldwater bit was fun.
2. The article is an attempt to impartially (journalists, unlike bloggers, and tech moguls strive to be impartial) to profile Clinton's evolution from the doting daughter of a republican racist father(very common in sixties midwest) to the woman and candidate she is now.
3. This blog is a parody. Many of your replies (Flip, Sentownbrother..) expose your own issues with women and have nothing to do with either this blog or with Hillary Clinton
4. You all would do well to stop gaming 24-7 and take a class in critical thinking.
So she went to college in the greater Boston area? And she gets her photo taken wearing a Yankees cap?
Ugh, I didn't like her for the Yankee cap to begin with. But that she went to school in Red Sox territory, and is wearing the cap of the enemy?!?!?! In the words of the great Rev. Al, I'm outraged!!!!! Although I'm sure he would be for different reasons.
“I do have a broader definition,” Mrs. Clinton said in an interview. “Civil rights are what each of us as human beings are entitled to in relationship to our society. But it really is, at core, about the respect and dignity of each human being.”. . .
and, " "By the time Mrs. Clinton moved to Arkansas in 1974, she had acquired a number of African-American friends and colleagues. She also had difficulty accepting what she saw as remnants of the “Old South.”"
It is a mixed pool of a story, with her personal experiences strengthened her character of diversity. Sounds just right to understand all the demographics of this country. What is the problem?
And this part: "She recalled her father’s driving her through rough parts of Chicago. “We’d go by skid row, which is what it was called in those days,” Mrs. Clinton said, “and we’d see some fellow leaning against a lamp post, and my father would start in on one of his usual lectures.”. . .
Anyone see the movie Candyman? These Chicago Housing projects are scary-Cabrini Green?. If one is white passing through these areas- your pretty much mugged and dead. Chicago's finest(cops) avoid these areas if necessary.
Thanks NY Times. Seems like we have a candidate with diverse experience, empathy, strength, and experience.
Hillary and Obama certainly understand Chicagoland/NW Chicagland much better than the NY Times would, understanding its wealthy areas of Park Ridge, IL, and its (former) overfilled housing projects, to its workng class city and suburaban areas as well-Just Like Real America, along with its small villages outlying.
Experience(Hillary) always overtakes paid whoreism and buyouts, which I guess is what our American Business model is following today with its current path.
And was not the whole "fake shutdown drama" protested as well, interesting that this post endorses "shutting down" someone's political agenda through this post and the "New York Times".
Lets let America decide. Without tossing 40 year old sludge, preety sleezy indeed.
2.)She was a closet Young Republican. She only became an RFK, then McCarthy Democrat to hang with "cool" kids. Marks her an opportunist.
3.)Hills will split both the Dems and GOP and still take the White House. Don't be surprised if it becomes a four way race - Hills, Obama, Bloomberg and some Republican (Mitt the Shit or Elmer Fudd or Suck-A-Cee-Minus).
Hope Obama gets trounced Tuesday.
The article talks about HRC's journey from sheltered Goldwater girl to sympathy with the Civil Rights movement & ultimately seeing that movement within the broader context of human rights. It doesn't at all read like the character assassination you suggest it is.
Also, your 1960s knowledge is pretty bad, for a person of your age. Listen to some of King's speeches, there are plenty on YouTube--he used the term 'negro' up until 1968. Ultimately I think your entry was kind of pointlessly shrill & completely wrong on the facts.
Look, I think this is a fun blog when you're talking about the tech industry. But when you talk politics, or indeed recent history outside of the tech field, you just sound ignorant.
Get a life. If what he writes offends you, don't read it!
FSJ, ignore frigtards like this and keep writing whatever you feel appropriate. It's your blog.
Don't stop the music, FSJ!
The gang up on Hillary is because people are afraid of her as President and its much easier (and palatable) to stop her in the primary then to allow her to steamroll to the general as the DNC candidate and ultimately recreate another 51-49 split in America. Either for McCain or her. The ultimate win is divisive. Obama's win in a general would be a mandate for substantive, bi-partisan change. A new direction, and momentum going into the transition.
Since punking Hillary now would by proxy enable Obama to ascend as the DNC candidate, this is why these peices are going out. In case you didnt realize, nearly half the country has their primary vote tomorrow. The timing of the piece is due to that.
(NOTE: I am not a supporter of Hillary, but I do not like the media's bias towards her, it's unjust).
I can understand how the "big-swinging" dicks in power working for large multinational corporations controlling its citizens with fear would be intimidated by and make a target of her and Bill with the press and Blogs. Even Obama may be next.
The many "Boomers and PreBoomer-Silent Generation types" still have not gotten their thinking beyond the 1970's and disco.
Ultimate glass ceiling, with Boomers and Fox News manipulating the media to the "Great White Man" agenda, just like school in the 1970's.
She had the balls to attack Obama's ties to Tony Rezko, one of the people shes taken money from in the past and had photos with, and make it sound like shed never stoop so low as to "accept money from a Chicago slum-lord" yet she did plenty of times before. What is she really mad about there? That this guy might be abusing poor people in Chicago or that Obama got his financial support this time and she didn't? You never know with Hillary.
Ann Coulter says shes more conservative than John McCain and that if it was between Clinton and McCain shed vote Clinton. This is Ann "Crackhead" Coulter we're talking about. She makes Rush Limbaugh look like a Marxist.
And why impeach now? All that does is make people angry. Remember how angry you were when they impeached Clinton? What does that solve right now, leading up to an election when Democrats have finally gotten a majority? Nothing, it looks like bloodlusted revenge and it reflects poorly on the nation to just kind of keep repeating this same process of sticking the other guys back once you re-establish power. Thats the kind of thing we're trying to get above. Theres this guy, Obama, maybe you've heard of him...
Let a new leader with a new vision get into the White House, then let him put things in motion that will produce a fair and just result within the law, as it was intended.
I like Obama, and what he is trying to stand for.
I personally don't think he is ready to stand as President and take on other branches of Government-I think Hillary is.
From what I understand, DC is filled with Lobbyist isn't it?
Interesting that Hillary gets flamed for Lobbyist when this is business as usual.
You do make strong, valid points, though.
We'll see soon.
