SMEARS Right and Left

Both Hillary and Huckabee seem to have found (they think) a new way to smear their
adversaries and get away with it. The American public seems to think differently.

It's been made plain many times lo these past months that Hillary is running her own
campaign and nothing happens without her input. Now that the smears have started
against Obama (since he's begun to surge in the polls) and she's gotten bad press
because of it (figure of speech, not many democrats ever get bad press) her pal Billy
in New Hampshire has fallen on the sword for her, took full responsibility, claimed
Hillary didn't know a thing about it and resigned. Supposedly. Hillary apologized.
Obama, who completely outclasses Hillary, graciously accepted her apology.


WASHINGTON (AP) - Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee, an ordained
Southern Baptist minister, asks in an upcoming article, "Don't Mormons believe that
Jesus and the devil are brothers?"

The article, to be published in Sunday's New York Times Magazine, says Huckabee asked
the question after saying he believes Mormonism is a religion but doesn't know much
about it. His rival Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, is a member of
the Mormon church, which is known officially as the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints.

The authoritative Encyclopedia of Mormonism, published in 1992, does not refer to
Jesus and Satan as brothers. It speaks of Jesus as the son of God and of Satan as a
fallen angel, which is a Biblical account.

A spokeswoman for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said Huckabee's
question is usually raised by those who wish to smear the Mormon faith rather than
clarify doctrine.

"We believe, as other Christians believe and as Paul wrote, that God is the father of
all," said the spokeswoman, Kim Farah. "That means that all beings were created by
God and are his spirit children. Christ, on the other hand, was the only begotten in
the flesh and we worship him as the son of God and the savior of mankind. Satan is
the exact opposite of who Christ is and what he stands for."

When an outcry arose over Huckabee's remarks, he was quick to apologize. Romney, who
completely outclasses Huckabee graciously accepted the apology.


So, the new order of the day seems to be say whatever outrageous thing you want and
then after the damage is done, apologize.....AAC

Wasn't it Hillary who tried her best at the start of this not to get
involved in the mud slinging and personal pot shot smears on OBAMA
when he started this whole thing over a month ago?

and now David Axelrod, the Obama campaign's chief strategist says like
the hypocrite he is -- "It's important for every campaign to send a
signal that there's not going to be a wink and a nod to this kind of
activity,''

uh yeah, so then tell that to Mr. Obama and your OWN ****ing campaign
smear boy!! Your people including Obama HIMSELF started these style
attacks in the first place! hello?

and then there is Obama himself in reply to Hillary when she had the
grace and class to apologize for one of her staffer's remarks --

Obama to Hillary -- "It's important for campaigns to send the signal
from the very top that this isn't tolerated,"

Obama apparently you need to be taking your own advice then!

so let's recap --

- Obama himself was the one who started an entire smear campaign
against Hillary a month or so ago, personal attacks HE personally made
on Hillary.

- Hillary on the other hand never endorsed or said any of what came
from her camp and the select few people that did were fired or
resigned AND she even apologized for their behavior.

Talk about calling the kettle black Obama! Where is YOUR apology
Obama? you start your **** and you can't finish it, then you and your
cronies blame everyone else for it, gee who does THAT remind me of?
are you sure you aren't a Republican and a distant relative of Bush
Mr. Obama?
