Her remarks were met with quick criticism from the campaign of Senator Barack Obama

the comments touched on one of the most sensitive aspects of the current presidential campaign — concern for Mr. Obama’s safety.

Bobby Kennedy was assassinated by a jihadist. 0bama is a jihadist.

“But you can bet that we’ll hear nothing of it in the mainstream media...”

I guess that’s where social media can step in and fill the information vacuum. I hope this by Hillary, and her “threat” to Bush on Bill Maher’s show are spammed all over God’s green social media earth.

Apparently, it was in the New York Times.

Bet the farm, take your winnings and buy a TV news station and hire some reporters who won't lie like 99% of them do now.

A bit of a veiled threat. It’s May and she’s complaining that people want her out of the campaign, “and you know, Kennedy was assassinated in June” (paraphrase).

Certainly more of a threat than Trump’s attempted joke.

Wonder how many recall these two songs!

“Hello Bobby, Six white horses come to take you home...”

“A young man rode with his head held high,
Under the Texas sun,
And no one guessed,
That a man so blessed,
Would perish by the gun,
Lord, would perish by the gun.

A shot rang out like a Southern shout,
And Heaven held its breath,
For a man shot down,
In a Southern town,
In the summer of his years,
Yes, the summer of his years.

And we who stay mustn’t ever lose,
The victories that he’s won,
For wherever “man” looks to Freedom’s past,
His soul goes riding on,
Lord, his soul goes riding on!”

Or THIS one!

“When that man is dead and gone
When that man is dead and gone
We’ll go dancing down the street
Kissing everyone we meet
When that man is dead and gone.”

Makes RUsh a liar today as he claims the NYTs never touched this story!

Go Trump, screw Rush!

Limbaugh, one of Clinton’s most outspoken critics, said he has never endorsed a candidate in the primary season. Now, with Trump almost assured he will have the required number of Republican delegates to ensure the nomination, Limbaugh said his endorsement is a “moot point.”

Apparently, it was in the New York Times.

By then the NYT had probably switched its support to Barry.

Reminds me of the time jimmah Carter’s mama, Miss Lillian said back in 1979 of Teddy “the Swimmer” running in the 1980 primary, “If he does run, I hope to goodness nothing happens to him”
