MacBeth & Duncan Enterprises.

Even Hitler and Stalin were buddy-buddy once, so this isn’t surprising. Pretty depressing comparison, though.

Behind the scenes, why would Hillary really want Obama to win? That would lock her out of another potential run in 2012. She needs to keep on pretending like she wants him to win, while secretly sabotaging his campaign.

That’s a desperate man! I’ve never heard of anyone offering to pay off an opponent’s debts. LOL He really wants Clinton’s support, but not enough to offer her the VP slot. He sure better watch his back. He could become the next case of Arkancide.

For some reason I dont see that HerThighness campaigning for NoBama helping him out a lot, even if she actually pulls for him.

What an arrogant POS he is. He's always got his head tipped back with that smug look on his face.

[Jeff Head]

He's thinking:

"Pay off your debt and then get in line behind me...but not too close."

while she is thinking...

"Pay off my debts...and then die for all I care."

That's probably pretty close to the true feelings going on here.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

[Salamander]

That was my enigmatic point....:)

[Is this a dagger I see before mine eyes?]

[shibumi]

Herself may be a tool in the Lord’s hands afterall.

[Salamander]

One tool deserves another.

[What an arrogant POS he is. He’s always got his head tipped back with that smug look on his face.]

Karl Rove has him pegged. “Even if you never met him, you know this guy; he’s the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by.”

[shibumi]

You could put on the whole play with just these two cast in multiple roles.

They both show elements of ruthless ambition, usurpation by any means, witchery and of course O could be the “none of woman borne” since his mother was “Stanley.”

It starts to break down, though, since no one in the scenario could be racked by guilt as was Lady MacBeth.

[Salamander]

Can’t wait to see the analogue of Great Burnham Wood in this mythopoeic.

Wanton switching of plays alert;

“Though this be madness, yet there is method in’t.”

[Salamander]

[and that makes him a Stanley tool, you know]....;]

[Prole]

It's because he really, really hates her.

He truly has nothing but contempt for the Clintons, but he cannot ever afford to give her the strong arm.

She probably threatened and/or blackmailed him at Feinstein's house a few weeks ago during their super secret meeting, and it has been a really frustrating problem for him ever since.

Obama also knows that she will probably poison his food or put a huge explosive device on his airplane if he picks her as VP.

Either way, he has bad options all around.

Get your popcorn ready for the DNC assembly in August!

"Behind the scenes, why would Hillary really want Obama to win? That would lock her out of another potential run in 2012. She needs to keep on pretending like she wants him to win, while secretly sabotaging his campaign."

Do not make the mistake of thinking that the "we" in her statement (following) refers to herself and Obama.


"I know my supporters have extremely strong feelings, and I know Barack's do as well. But we are a family, and we have an opportunity now to really demonstrate clearly we do know what's at stake, and we will do whatever it takes to win back this White House,"


I seriously believe that she's referring to herself and her own family, (disfunctional as it is.)

[Theresawithanh]

I heard there was a video of the song Obambi was gonna sing at the event:

U-ni-ty for you and me
That's the way it's s'posed to be!
Give some cash to Hil-la-ry
Maybe she'll quit bug-gin' me!

[Salamander]

My thoughts, too that went unvoiced because I didn’t want to sound *too* “tin foily”.

[ducking, running away and laughing].....;-D
