The Clinton campaign uses Obama quotes out of context (about Obama saying he stood with the president on the war when in fact the entire quote was that Obama stood with the president on the need to train iraqi troops so they can take over). Clinton says no one has challenged Obama on certain quotes when Tim Russert has shown tapes to contradict everything Bill Clinton said. Tim challenged Obama on those quotes back in November.
Had Hillary not won NH, Bill Clinton's crying on the campaign trail would have gotten much more attention. He distorts the facts, openly lies about whether or not he said certain things despite audio & video evidence to prove otherwise & he isn't helping Hillary.
Wait a minute, this goes both ways. All this up in arms about the Bill quote and Hillary's calling out Obama for comparing himself to JFK and MLK were also taken out of context. I saw the video of Bill before all the chaos and you can see that he is explictly talking about Obama's position on Iraq, however, on the news, we only get to see the fairy land comment and naturally everyone gets offended. Same thing with Hillary, if you read her comments, she was making the point that words by themselves did not accomplish things, MLK had to work with the President to get this done.
Look, I am not claiming that the Clinton campaign is made up of saints. But it is ridiculous to say that Obama's campaign is higher than thou either. We should be focusing more on the issues than who is the more "fair" campaign because both are doing everything they can to win.
at her saying the Obama campaign is playing dirty. Who sent her people on Hardball & campaign stops saying "Obama used cocaine!" & "Bill Clinton is more black than Obama will ever be!"
