You may find the network not to your liking, but let's at least try to be honest in our portrayals. Implying that FOX News just makes random stuff up is about as far from honest as you can get. Let's not go lowering the bar with unsubstantiated claims. kthanx.
As to the opening post: Who the hell cares? If he said that to his friends, whatever. It's not like he had a press conference to announce it. |
Excellent points...

(So Hillary wants no part of an Obama presidency, which is why she campaigned with him. OOooookaaaay.)
Aha, but she does want her campaign debts paid off.
Obama can do that. |

Current Mood: | Re: Report: Bill Clinton Tells Friends Obama Can Kiss His Butt Christ almighty...who gives a ****? I think it's funny if he said that, because apparently it doesn't mean **** to Hillary, who is out there with the man, pulling her people into his camp, along with their money. McCain deserves credit for putting up a good fight, but he will lose, and it will be a good thing when he does (my opinion). If I wanted a senior citizen President I'd vote for Lee Iaccoca.
This is just more thrashing from the McCain camp, of which Fox is squarely in. Again...who gives a ****? Everybody knows the major media networks take sides. Big deal. This is American politics. Some of you act like you have never seen this before.

News Obama "has always believed that Bill Clinton is one of this nation's great leaders and most brilliant minds, and looks forward to seeing him on the campaign trail and receiving his counsel in the months to come," said Obama spokesman Bill Burton.
