Hillary embraces a vast right wing conspiracy
By Leonard Doyle in Washington
Hillary is pumping the Jeremiah Wright business as much all she can, while husband Bill puts it about that only she and McCain are patriotic enough to run for president. But as consistently brilliant Talkingpointsmemo.com points out, her latest remarks that Wright "would not have been my pastor" were disingenuous at best.
Her audience was none other than the editorial board of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, a money-losing, vanity of Richard Mellon Scaife, who has spent millions funding right-wing attack operations against the Clintons and others over the past 20 years. Scaife was behind the conspiracy theory that Hillary' had Vince Foster bumped off and was the nerve center of what she dubbed the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. And Scaife was sitting in on her interview.
That's it. In the unlikely event that Hillary wins this thing, I'm not voting for her. She's making the Republicans look like they have some sense of decency. Is the presidency really worth selling your soul, Hillary? Did you actually watch Obama's More Perfect Union Speech all the way through?
