Obama Oh Eight

By

Food for thought:
“One decision decides this Democratic nomination. As soon as the planes hit the twin towers, a few of us foresaw a folly of war to swiftly follow. Barack voted against the first funding of the Iraq war. He made the right decision in an unprecedented time of emergency. Hillary agreed with a decision that has crippled our country. Barack didn’t fold under the enormous public pressure after 9/11. Rewind to the emotionally charged politics of late 2001. Recall the swift formation of a line behind Bush’s Iraq war march. I’m still shocked at how many people were swayed. When we were all stressed out and afraid, Barack kept his head and had some balls.

I love and support Hillary out of familiarity. There is no moral coloring to the fact that Hillary did not take the lead to speak against the two biggest Presidential blunders of both Bush and Bill. The rest of the country will question the support of her husband, I am only isolating her support of Presidential lies. Towing the safest line of least resistance is following, not leading. Watch very closely how Barack and Hillary respond to the pressure of the primary election. In the face of mounting stress, we’ve already seen her lose patience unprofessionally. Anger and emotion don’t directly translate to courage. The Iraq war is the biggest decision Hillary made as an elected official. She made her choice based on fear. Blood is on Hillary’s hands too.” ~Mike Leavitt
