Are you out of your f*&^ing mind!!! How out of touch to reality are you? I bet that you are a subscriging member to the KKK and wish that hangings were brought back. I truely cannot believe that people such as yourself will be allowed to vote. It’s no wonder that I live outside the U.S. and don’t feel safe for myself & family because of stupid, inbred people like you are running around.

I am one truly disgusted American citizen & military veteren who is ashamed to be known as an american. everyone who proudly flys the flag should fly it upside down in these times.

Obama did the right thing by not going after, I think I remember when she used his words to win Pennsylvania, that he was an “elitist”.

I remember Bobby. I remember our sense of hope that things could be changed. I have no doubt that he did not give up his life in order to create an excuse for Sen. Clinton or an opportunity for her supporters.

Just don’t go there. Sen. Clinton’s “apology” was inadequate. She made it sound like just another round of sniper fire racist hard working white and why is this uppity upstart beating me stuff.

She ran hard, and largely she was classy, and she deserves credit for that part. That does not give her blanket permission to suggest that her way to win is to have somebody kill Obama.

Even Robert Kennedy’s son realized what she meant– and she had stated this before. At this point and time, to have the Axelrod media and major media outlets stream the “analogy possibility” of inference- that Clinton is staying in the race so the extremely remote chance of Senator Obama’s demise would play into her receiving the Democratic Nomination is even lower than I’d hope to hear coming from the major outlets; then having the Obama campaign ‘forgive her’ is shameful.

Here’s the discussion from CNN (which obviously few individuals read before stating their inflammatory comments here):

Clinton references Robert Kennedy assassination in remarks to editorial board

She says later that she regrets if comments were considered offensive

Clinton made a similar remark to Time magazine in March

From Peter Hamby
CNN Political Producer

BRANDON, South Dakota (CNN) — Sen. Hillary Clinton said Friday that she regretted comments that evoked the June 1968 assassination of Robert Kennedy as part of her explanation for why she was staying in the presidential race late into the primary season.

Earlier Friday afternoon, she told the editorial board of the Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Argus Leader that “My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it,” she said.

Clinton complained that “people have been trying to push me out of this ever since Iowa” and said that position “historically … makes no sense.”

Later at an event in Brandon, South Dakota, she said, “Earlier today, I was discussing the Democratic primary history and in the course of that discussion mentioned the campaigns that both my husband and Sen. Kennedy waged in California in June in 1992 and 1968, and I was referencing those to make the point that we have had nominating primary contests that go into June. That’s an historic fact.” Watch more of Clinton’s comments to the editorial board »

“The Kennedys have been much on my mind in the last days because of Sen. [Edward] Kennedy, and I regret that if my referencing that moment of trauma for our entire nation and particularly for the Kennedy family was in any way offensive. I certainly had no intention of that whatsoever,” Clinton added. Watch Clinton explain her remarks »

During an interview with Radio Isla Puerto Rico on Saturday, Obama reacted to the Clinton comment.

According to a quote released by the campaign, he said, “I have learned that when you are campaigning for as many months as Sen. Clinton and I have been campaigning, sometimes you get careless in terms of the statements that you make, and I think that is what happened here. Sen. Clinton says that she did not intend any offense by it, and I will take her at her word on that.”

On Friday, the campaign said in a statement, “Sen. Clinton’s statement before the Argus Leader editorial board was unfortunate and has no place in this campaign.”

Her campaign first defended the remarks, saying the New York senator had been making a historical parallel.

“She was simply referencing her husband in 1992 and Bobby Kennedy in 1968 of historical examples of the nominating process going well into the summer. Any reading into it beyond that is inaccurate and outrageous,” Clinton spokesman Mo Elleithee said.

Kennedy, the brother of slain President John F. Kennedy, was shot and killed just moments after claiming victory in the California primary in 1968.

Friday night, Kennedy’s son, Robert Kennedy, Jr., released a statement that said he understands the point Clinton was making and said it would be a mistake to be offended.

“I have heard her make this reference before, also citing her husband’s 1992 race, both of which were hard-fought through June,” he said. “I understand how highly charged the atmosphere is, but I think it is a mistake for people to take offense.”

Also Friday, the Clinton campaign released a statement from Randell Beck, the newspaper’s executive editor, saying Clinton was answering a question about whether her continued campaigning threatens party unity so close to the Democratic convention.

“Her reference to Mr. Kennedy’s assassination appeared to focus on the timeline of his primary candidacy and not the assassination itself,” Beck said in the statement.

Clinton’s campaign manager, Maggie Williams, told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that people may have “misinterpreted what she meant.”

“It was clear to anybody watching her this afternoon that she was … deeply regretful, and people did not understand the context in which she made this reference, and so I think that she immediately, as soon as she could, spoke out to express her regret for … perhaps the way that she had spoken or the people had misinterpreted what she meant,” Williams said.

Clinton made a similar reference to Robert Kennedy in a March interview with Time magazine Managing Editor Richard Stengel, saying she could not envision a scenario in which party leaders would step in and call for the race to end.

“I think people have short memories,” she said then. “Primary contests used to last a lot longer. We all remember the great tragedy of Bobby Kennedy being assassinated in June in L.A. My husband didn’t wrap up the nomination in 1992 until June. Having a primary contest go through June is nothing particularly unusual.”

All three candidates have Secret Service protection.

Clinton, the former first lady, has had agents guarding her since her husband’s administration; Obama was assigned a protective detail in May 2007; and presumed Republican nominee Sen. John McCain agreed to accept Secret Service protection in April.
*************************************

I find it ironic that Time magazine editors (who are Pro-Obama) failed to notify other major media outlets (besides CNN) of the interview Clinton gave in March- verifying her sincere use of the example along with her husband’s campaign in order to respectfully reduce the outcry that has been in the media for over 48 hours now.
The Obama camp is loving this I’m sure….

Lastly, my disappointment with the Obama campaign is in the slander of Senator Clinton regarding the honest comments which had NO inference to the Illinois Senator; Senator Obama gets TV time to ‘attack’ the statement and say that it’s a ‘careless comment’ from Senator Clinton due to a long campaign – I term this in line with several other instances as the Audiacity of Arrogance; In light of Senator McCain’s situation, Senator Obama now reaps the benefit of not having to worry about the Wright controversy as much; the media researched two pastors with controversial personal beliefs that had endorsed Senator McCain. The GOP cannot raise this issue without Axelrod countering with his conglomerate:

http://www.nbc4.com/news/15616529/detail.html

Clever, but how does one campaign now, or in the general election? I’ve been a lifelong Democrat, and I will not consider McCain in the general election, however I’ll be hard pressed to vote for the Democratic apprentice who claimed to have not wanted anything more than being a mayor in Illinois, or even the legislature. After the 2004 speech, the presidential aspirations became more transparent and Senator Obama was ‘taught’ by none other than Kennedy, Kerry and Clinton (each helped in getting him elected). Had Senator Obama TRIED to save Maytag jobs that were downsized in his state (Lester Crown and his family benefited though and gladly contributed a great deal to his campaign), or tried to improve the poor conditions of the apartments that were owned by his friend Tony Rezko in Illinois, then I would reconsider my casting my vote towards him. I only wonder how can we consider such brevity in record (literally since there are no scheduling/diary records of the Senator while in legislative office; where are they? Senator Clinton provided some records, and the tax results prior to PA primaries- though they earned 109M in 7 years, I applaud their contributions to charity- they were slightly above 10%. I didn’t see such percentages reached with either other presidential candidate- but correct me if I’m mistaken) for the United States Presidency?

God knows, Senator, in this campaign, this nation has **had** to forgive you, early and often…

And despite your now traditional position of the offended victim, the nation **has** forgiven you.

1) We have forgiven you your insistence that there have been widespread calls for you to end your campaign, when such calls had been few.

2) We have forgiven you your misspeaking about Martin Luther King’s relative importance to the Civil Rights movement.

3) We have forgiven you your misspeaking about your under-fire landing in Bosnia.

4) We have forgiven you insisting Michigan’s vote wouldn’t count and then claiming those who would not count it were Un-Democratic.

5) We have forgiven you pledging to not campaign in Florida and thus disenfranchise voters there, and then claim those who stuck to those rules were as wrong as those who defended slavery or denied women the vote.

6) We have forgiven you the photos of Osama Bin Laden in an anti-Obama ad…

7) We have forgiven you fawning over the fairness of Fox News while they were still calling you a murderer.

8) We have forgiven you accepting Richard Mellon Scaife’s endorsement and then laughing as you described his “deathbed conversion.”

9) We have forgiven you quoting the electoral predictions of Boss Karl Rove.

10) We have forgiven you the 3 A-M Phone Call commercial.

11) We have forgiven you **President** Clinton’s disparaging comparison of the Obama candidacy to Jesse Jackson’s.

12) We have forgiven you Geraldine Ferraro’s national radio interview suggesting Obama would not still be in the race had he been a white man.

13) We have forgiven you the dozen changing metrics and the endless self-contradictions of your insistence that your nomination is mathematically probable rather than a statistical impossibility.

14 We have forgiven you your declaration of some primary states as counting and some as not.

15) We have forgiven you exploiting Jeremiah Wright in front of the editorial board of the lunatic-fringe Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

16) We have forgiven you exploiting William Ayers in front of the debate on ABC.

17) We have forgiven you for boasting of your “support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans”…

18) We have even forgiven you repeatedly praising Senator McCain at Senator Obama’s expense, and your **own** expense, and the Democratic **ticket’s** expense.

But Senator, we cannot forgive you this.

“You know, my husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.”

We cannot forgive you this — not because it is crass and low and unfeeling and brutal.

**This** is **un**-forgivable, because this nation’s deepest shame, its most enduring horror, its most terrifying legacy, is political assassination.

Many linked to the case died before their testimony could come before a Grand Jury.

In reality, President Clinton essentially secured the nomination after the Illinois primary. The date was March 17, 1992. And if she wants to use 1968 as an example, she ought to mention that only 13 states held primaries that year. No Michigan primary in 1968 either.

Hillary and the people who have made excuses for her ‘gaffe’ ie, she’s tired, she didn’t intend to offend, demonstrate an all too casual attitude toward the importance of avoiding any comments that are so offensive.

They demonstrate the continued willingness to enable her and many others who have deep seated unconscious prejudices by saying she’s not blatantly biased nor intent on hurting race relations in the country, but Hillary and the MSM do so because they aren’t trying hard enough to avoid that possibility. Period.

To me, unconscious prejudice is the most dangerous, insidious kind. Racism, conscious and unconscious is an issue this nation cannot afford to ignore, or excuse, right now. And that means Senator Clinton and the MSN pundits, as well as the superdelegates who continue to endorse her need to honestly and seriously examine their own.

As Barack so eliquently said in his speech on race on March 18 ‘The fact is that the comments that have been made and the issues that have surfaced over the last few weeks reflect the complexities of race in this country that we’ve never really worked through – a part of our union that we have yet to perfect. And if we walk away now, if we simply retreat into our respective corners, we will never be able to come together and solve challenges like health care, or education, or the need to find good jobs for every American.’

From a hard working, middle class white woman, ‘Not this time.’ For the sake of a more perfect union, ‘Not this time.’

What is even more disappointing it will be yet another situation where poor Hillary will get a pass. Why because, everyone else is giving her the benefit of the doubt, making tired excuses for her and feeling sorry for her, including Obama and his camp. When Obama made the “bitter” comment there were no excuses for him. Hillary and her camp jumped on it and made it larger than life and he paid daily for it, over and over again so much so we now have a new word “bittergate”.

The Dem’s have shown they will allow this one woman make a fool of them. They wont make a move because they don’t wont to hurt her feelings, yet she has proven that she has no love or respect for her on party. She wants to win at any cost, even if it destroys the party. All the while the repub’s laugh.

DEM’S wake up enough is enough, you jave your party’s NOM it is Obama end this while the Dem’s still look entact. If it goes on any longer you will lose support of your people and all hopes to having a DEM as President will be lost.
