Stealing His Lunch Money
Somebody needs to come to Obama’s defense, because this is getting ugly—which is be-eautiful:
The original mavericks. He fights pork barrel spending. She stopped the Bridge to Nowhere.
He took on the drug industry. She took on big oil.
He battled Republicans and reformed Washington. She battled Republicans and reformed Alaska.
They’ll make history. They’ll change Washington.
McCain. Palin. Real change.
They’ve stolen His message; they’ve stolen His lead. Where’s his back-up?
Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic nominee for vice president, departed Sunday from party doctrine on abortion rights, declaring that as a Catholic, he believes life begins at conception.
…
“They believe in their faith and they believe in human life, and they have differing views as to when life — I’m prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at the moment of conception.”
Well, okay, I respect your opinion, Joe. But what does that make your guy? What is the appropriate term for someone who openly champions the snuffing-out of life, or “life”, if you prefer? I call him “Democratic nominee”, but the way the Dems are behaving, he’s a sacrificial lamb.
And speaking of lamb, Bill Clinton wants some:
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama plans to have lunch with former President Clinton this week in what will be their first extended face-to-face meeting since the bitter primary season.
Obama intends to meet Clinton for a private lunch Thursday at the Clinton Foundation headquarters in New York City, Obama spokesman Bill Burton said yesterday. Obama will be in New York that morning for a memorial ceremony at Ground Zero, where he will appear with Republican presidential rival John McCain to commemorate the seventh anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.
Clinton extended the invitation after he learned Obama would be in town, Burton said.
President Clinton said he would campaign for His Oneness any time anywhere, if asked—yet he had to place the call. I don’t know, but that speaks volumes to me. The Clintons dissed him in the primaries, to be sure, but dissing a former President and a sitting Senator in return is just not smart politics.
