What If It Had Been the Clintons?
What if Bill or Hillary Clinton’s grandmother had died the day before the election? Let’s speculate.
Republicans would have flown back from campaigning to hold emergency hearings in both the House and Senate to “investigate”. The right wing and religious wackos would have crash produced an “educational” video adding the grandmother’s death to the Clinton Death List. Vince Foster’s bones would have been dug up and desecrated yet again. Servers around the world would have crashed and burned, unable to accomodate the outpouring of sewage published by “citizen journalists” on right wing blogs. The media would have “reported” every crackpot conspiracy theory, prefacing their “reports” with the words “some people say” or, just to add a dash of credibility, “sources say” — if by “sources” you mean commenters on the Free Republic . And then they would have voted to impeach all over again, throwing Hillary Clinton in for good measure. Meanwhile, Democrats would be busy polling to figure out what to do – all while allowing the train of sanity to go off the rails.
Just to make sure I make myself clear to those who interpret eveything they read literally, I AM NOT SUGGESTING that Obama deserves this treatment. I’m just marveling yet again at the insanity that gripped this country during the 8 years of the Clinton presidency, which rose again in all its hideous glory during Hillary Clinton’s run for the Democratic presidential nomination.
I’m still waiting for the Republicans, insane Clinton haters and their amen corner in the press corps to apologize for pissing away taxpayer dollars and squandering valuable airtime and ink on this public lunacy to return the money and issue a formal apology to the country for flushing their responsibility to the public down the commode.
Still waiting.
Still waiting.
