Obama is half right about his wife

Obama said today that republicans should’ “lay off” his wife during the campaign. This came as a response to a youtube video made about her remark in February, “For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country.” Obama called the video, “low class” and “unacceptable.”

Obama is correct that these tactics are underhanded and “low class.” Those responsible should spend their time talking about Obama’s positions on issues rather than these cutting attacks. However, I dont totally agree with him.

She did, actually, make these comments at a stump speech after all. Just because she is not running for office does not mean her comments are safe from scrutiny.

If Obama wants to protect her from politics then asking her to not make high profile speeches might be a good start. 

Hillary Wins…Bill becomes Vice President

Hillary did about as well as the polls the previous few days have shown in Texas and Ohio…winning them by 6% and 10% I believe. So, she has momentum but not mathematics currently. She is still not going to win the overall delegate count unless she can muster a very large superdelegate turnaround. Obama still seems the likely pick. She implied today that if she wins the nomination then she might have Obama as V.P.

That reminded me of a blog I read a couple months ago by a guy that had a dream where Hillary became president. In that dream she immediately made Bill her Vice President. The next day she decided to resign from office making Bill the president and thus not betraying the constitution because he wasn’t elected. Then, 4 years later Hillary ran for president again….

Watch out folks

Ann Coulter votes for….Hillary Clinton?

Ann Coulter author of, “If Democrats had any brains” spoke out on Hannity and Colmes saying that if John McCain wins the Republican nomination then she will campaign for Hillary Clinton. Ann Coulter the uber conservative of television came out to say that she believes Hillary Clinton is stronger on national defense and is actually less liberal than John McCain on several issues. Personally, I think that she is just angry that any Republican would have the audacity to work across the aisle on legislation. Here is the video. What do you guys think?

Where Edwards is Wrong on the Issues:

Many of the politicians have changed their views on issues since I have written posts about them. I would like to think that is because they have read my blog and repented of their ways. Well, maybe that isnt the case. Anyhow, here is where Edwards is wrong on the issues. I dont know what Edward’s views of the immigration border fence are. If someone knows, then please let me know.

1. Roe v Wade: Supports law; is pro-choice
2. ANWR Drilling: Against drilling
3. Patriot Act: Supports Act (1/2 wrong)
4. Iran Military Option: Supports keeping military option open
5. Same Sex Civil Unions: Supports civil unions
6. Constitutional Ban on Same-Sex Marriage: Against ban
7. Universal Healthcare: Supports Universal Healthcare

I dont doubt there are others, but that is what I have for now. I almost didnt write a post about Edwards, but his strong showing in Iowa prompted me to write one.
