Earlier this month, it was revealed that the footage the Clinton campaign used to make its 3 a.m./Red Phone ad was eight years old, and one of the sleeping children in the ad turned out to be a now grown-up Obama precinct captain in Washington state named Casey Knowles.  The video Knowles made for YouTube criticizing [...]

Or maybe I’m the only one who finds enormous irony in the fact that Hillary Clinton is claiming to be the most qualified candidate to manage the economy and lecturing everyone on fiscal responsibility, yet can’t even balance her own campaign’s budget: A pair of Ohio companies owed more than $25,000 by Clinton for staging events for her [...]

The media smells blood in the water.  Here’s Dan Abrams pointing out two more misstatements by Hillary Clinton surrounding her now infamous Tuzla Tale: Nitpicking? Maybe. But if you’re going to say you were the first person to do something, you should probably make sure nobody did it before you. The reason I think Tuzla [...]

Responding to yesterday’s post on Hillary Clinton’s Tuzla problem, commenter Long Tall Texan provides some new video evidence that turns the entire story on its head: All of you people have it wrong! Guess you haven’t seen the NEW BOSNIA FOOTAGE which proves that there WAS SNIPER FIRE (and worse) when Hillary landed that day. [...]

Personal story #2 today. I talked to my mom this evening, who still lives in Pennsylvania, and she told me that the local news stations have been all over Hillary Clinton this week for what is now being widely regarded– even in the most cautious journalistic circles– as a flat-out lie: her tale of running from sniper fire during [...]

James Carville went just a bit overboard this weekend describing former Clinton administration cabinet member Bill Richardson’s endorsement of Barack Obama: Mr. Richardson’s endorsement came right around the anniversary of the day when Judas sold out for 30 pieces of silver, so I think the timing is appropriate, if ironic. For those of you keeping score [...]

Earlier today, The Washington Post blew apart some dubious claims Hillary Clinton made last week about the dangers involved in her 1996 trip to Bosnia.  In a March 17th speech at George Washington University, Clinton told supporters: I certainly do remember that trip to Bosnia, and as [former Army secretary] Togo [West] said, there was a saying around the White House [...]

Commenter Andrew, a native Pennsylvanian, weighs in with some great insight on the Keystone State’s upcoming Democratic primary: Hello Sir or Madame, [Griffin's note: It's "sir"-- I'm a guy] Great work on your blog. I’m from Pennsylvania. I live in Philadelphia, but I just toured northeastern Pennsylvania during my spring break (for a little vacation fun) and was [...]

The media has started poring over Hillary’s First Lady schedules and they tell us pretty much what we already knew.  She started out deep in health care policy– by far the most extensive, and perhaps only, real executive experience of her life up until her current presidential campaign– but after the 1993 initiative failed in such spectacular fashion, she was [...]

This HuffPo post by Orlando Lima is one of the best things I’ve ever read: It’s troublesome that liberal whites act in a racist fashion so often without realizing it. We all know where the conservatives stand. They’re transparent. They hate black people. The liberals are translucent. They like us when it’s convenient. When liberals need black [...]

Why does it take a former Sportscenter anchor to say this? Why does Keith Olbermann have to abandon his objective journalist post for a full ten minutes to say what should be spilling out of the mouths of Democratic Party leaders everywhere? Where is Howard Dean on this? Where is Al Gore? Where is Nancy [...]

The blog Popehat notes that Harvard professor of sociology Orlando Patterson is taking some dubious claims that have been circulating around the blogosphere public, crying racism in the Clinton campaign’s now famous 3 a.m./red phone ad via a New York Times op-ed, where he writes: I have spent my life studying the pictures and symbols of racism and slavery, [...]

Geraldine Ferraro in 2008: If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman, he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept. Geraldine Ferraro in 1988: If [...]

Obama responds. The two money quotes: With all due respect. I won twice as many states as Sen. Clinton. I’ve won more of the popular vote than Sen. Clinton. I have more delegates than Sen. Clinton. So, I don’t know how somebody who’s in second place is offering vice presidency to the person who’s in [...]

As much as I hate to link to HuffPo twice in two days, this piece on Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy experience is amazing: Her campaign produced a press release in 2007 testifying to her foreign policy savvy, a letter signed by numerous ambassadors — every single one of them appointed by her husband when he was the [...]
