Call or Write AP

Please call or write the idiots over at AP regarding the "wonderful" job they did covering President Bush in Wisconsin today (Friday). I asked why they did not include the victory dance the First Lady did when they announced President Clinton's illness. As blatent and obvious as they are, they should freakin' make an endorsement to John Kerry. Just my two cents worth.

I just saw Hillary's statement outside the hospital saying that they have good insurance and hope that soon everyone would have good health care insurance. I found her statements in poor taste.

Most people are hoping for his recovery, regardless of party or politics. She should have been gracious enough to not toss politics into the arena at this time. I am sure it will be milked to death after his recovery.

There was no victory dance - just cartwheels; later the crowd spontaneously burst in "Te Deum Laudamus" - and did it in perfect chorus, WITHOUT a kapellmeister...

Well, the greasy-haired cow was whooping it up at the Wellstone funerally. This should come as no surprise.

What she means is that she has good life insurance on Bill, and that's all that matters!

IT was so weird i saw the interview with Hillery about Bill today, she looked happy! WTF? Is she hoping he dies, so she will get the sympathy vote the next time she runs? It looked awfully weird for her to look so happy, not at all concerned

I pray this is a joke.

OK..let me give you some recent history. Four years ago John Ashcroft was a shoe-in to be reelected to the Senate in Missouri. Governor Mel Carnahan who was running for the same senate seat crashes and burns in an airplane and the Governors idiot wife won his Senate seat due to the sympathy vote.

Now I know that John Kerry is not Bill Clinton's wife (he probably wishes he was) but death has a funny effect on people and I would rather not see it become a factor in the next election.

Also thank you for correcting my spelling. I'm sure it made you feel better. Perhaps you could think more about WHAT you say than how to spell it?

I don't see much point. They're Democrat hacks, always have been, and don't much care what the public thinks.

Yes they are...but as a newswire service, they can't admit it. If they get enough criticism on this, and they really really need to, 1.) they will work to make sure it's not so obvious...2.) there will be a public record in everyone's mind that bad press to the Prez is concocted by unfair journalists...3.) Wisconsin voters will be outraged by how AP tried to portray them and reward Prez. Bush

I suggested they form a 527 to run stories like this one. It has a Moveon.org feel

As I posted earlier this evening, our minds are thinking alike.

Kerry withdraws because of health issues.

Bill passes away from Arkancide.

Hillary steps in as the hero on November 2nd.

I wonder if she has her Democratic Jr. Senator on the phone, taking tips from Missouri's Jean Carnahan?

I am personally sending Bill a card. My husband had bypass surgery and it's got to be scary as hell for him, but as posts on this thread have suggested, the only think I recognize in Hillary's eyes are "PAYBACK BUBBA" and "YOUR TIMING COULD NOT HAVE BEEN BETTER".....wonder if they can wait until Tuesday. After all Monday is a paid holiday and surely Hillary would not want to take that away from her constituents.

UGH.

I saw that too. She said something to the effect that they have good health insurance. Yup. They have good health insurance at the expense of the taxpayer, while the taxpayer can't afford health insurance.

the Governors idiot wife won his Senate seat due to the sympathy vote.
Which was entirely different because Carnahan was an incumbent and the idiot voters felt some attraction towards 'maintaining the dynasty' of having a Carnahan in office.

...death has a funny effect on people...
concerning certain people we're talking about, I'd find it funny if it had it's normal effect on them...

and I would rather not see it become a factor in the next election.
What? Vote for that fat whore who's not even running just because her slovenly, adulterous, ex-gravy-train who's been out of office for four years now had his heart explode? I can't think it would happen - she's 'shown er colors' to many since then and they're against her now while they weren't during the elections.

Also thank you for correcting my spelling. I'm sure it made you feel better. Perhaps you could think more about WHAT you say than how to spell it?
Also, I didn't correct your spelling. Just noted to the Readers that I was directly quoting you - don't be snotty: get over it.

Oh, and "huh" is not being snotty? I've read enough of your post to know you are mean spirited solitas. Like me you might be conservative. But you are also a jerk. You can have the last word as I wont respond on this thread again. Have a nice day.
