There's a new mortal sin in American politics: criticizing Hillary Clinton.
Nobody's allowed to do it.
Certainly none of her opponents. If they dare to, Hillary sends in one of her boys, who practically accuses them of being un-American.
In January, without ever mentioning Hillary's name and before she was even a candidate, John Edwards dared to express the view that silence on the Iraq War was "betrayal." Ignoring the substance of Edwards' speech, Clinton gun slinger Howard Wolfson immediately shot from the hip, attacking him for waging a negative campaign:
"In 2004, John Edwards used to constantly brag about running a positive campaign. Today, he has unfortunately chosen to operate his campaign with political attacks on Democrats who are fighting the Bush administration's Iraq policy."
If you like the idea of censorship of critical political speech, you'll love Hillary Clinton as President.
To Hilary, open political discourse apparently means that her opponents and their surrogates are free to compliment her. If they do otherwise, it's off with their heads.

No doubt about it. I already am. :)
Hillary has the bad luck to be running for President at about the societal point when everyone realizes this whole "women are sane" thing is way overblown.
I would love to kick back and watch the Dems savage each other....if the consequences of one of them actually taking office weren't so severe.
IMO, the MSM is ready to throw Hillary under the bus for the new flavor of the month, Obama.
Does anyone here still have an ounce of respect for Dick Morris? Anyone?
I detest the prospect of a Hillary presidency as much as the next man, but God.. Morris never ceases to amaze in the extent to which he will make an embarassment of himself. I picture a petulent child crying over his high-chair because he wants more baby food.
I doubt many Americans even know which party Hillary or Obama belong too.
So the MSM will blame the repubs for all that the Dem's have spouted.
Don't believe me?
/Hah
I see this...
But not this one,
He then flipped and told 5 outright lies (positive ones) about her.
Go Figure.
pod cast interview (Don Weeks) might show up here later today: http://www.wgy.com/cc-common/podcast.html
You made it through that? I heard Don say that he was welcoming McAwful and I just shut the radio off...figured I'd wing it on the traffic info rather than listen to that punk spout off.
somebody really needs to grab that audio clip - great evidence....
Great tagline!
Even the lefties in Hollywood have a visceral contempt for Madame Hillary : )
"Hillary Care" is proof that Hillary can't lead and can't follow. The only thing left for her is to get the f out of the way. Thankfully she won't and she'll take the Democrat Party down with her.

What did he write that you disagree with? Just curious.
Pretty much the whole thing..

Everyone criticizes Hillary Clinton, and everyone is justified in doing so.. Everyone is allowed to do it. All of her opponents included. When they do, she or her opponents respond in kind.. This is politics.. Why is this material for a column? Because Dick Morris lives and breathes hatred for the Clintons due to some past betrayal and it was his turn to write.. Show me one written piece or utterance of his in the past 5 years that hasn't been about BJ or the Hildabeast.. I just find it sad.
