There He Goes Again: Bill Clinton’s Clockwork Bitchiness

2/12/08, 1:05 pm EST

Bill Clinton is once again indulging in his ritually bitchy pre-election soundbite thing:

First America was “rolling the dice” with Obama.

Then Obama became “the biggest fairy tale I’ve ever seen.”

Today, the Democratic party’s elder statesman is belittling Obama’s candidacy as nothing more than “smoke and mirrors.”

Whatever happened to the “brilliant, articulate, compelling vision embodied in Sen. Obama“?

On Bribery… it is a practice that has become so prevalent that they use it even to $ell us stuff. ‘B u y this today and receive a $50 refund’… this is a kickback scheme. If you charged me the appropriate price for the item rather than trying to gouge me, then there would be no need to reduce the price drastically to generate more sales or get rid of old stock, this practice is designed to make bribery less of an anomaly or crime since it has become a valid business practice. Regardless of methodology, the intent is the same, to deceive into believing you are getting a bargain and dissemble from the fact you were being ripped off. Seems americans have been $old a bill of goods that a democracy is about the choice to select from two individuals who seem to have very little in common with the majority and are able to tell you what you want to hear rather than do what you need done… while quietly transfering the fruits of your labor to those that already control a great majority of the wealth.

A democracy is about choices for all ideologies regardless of how outside the main stream they may be, without fear of as$ault, repression or ridicule from those that choose not to see life in the same manner, even those that would rather vote for ‘none of the above’. That is all that Nader is doing, providing another choice. ( a side note… do you hate the fact that you are forced to use a seat belt?).

So it takes boldness(?) to make a strategic move and save yourself the money you would have spent on a fruitless campaign? We must be assuming that Edwards and Richardson dropped out because they were willing to ‘fall on their sword’ so to speak, for the benefit of the party rather than their own calculated strategy or an inability to garner enough support. Being that they are members of the same party that may be a valid statement, considering that Nader is not even a member of the democratic party, it would seem absurd for him to do something to help his opponents.
