I don’t get why the Clinton camp likes to talk about “experience” and her “record.”

Other than Kucinich, any Democrat whose been in the House or Senate while Bush has been in office shouldn’t be talking about their record.

If you should run into Hillary or Barack on the campaign trail ask them the following question:

"If you become President of the United States of America, making your running mate the constitutional president of the US Senate, will you demand that the current Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, be replaced immediately?"

It's a critical question. Harry Reid is, to put it mildly, the worst, most ineffective, mealy-mouth, wimp to lead the US Senate in my adult life time.

When you begin to pull on the individual threads of democracy, the very fabric woven together to form this once great nation, you start to unravel the whole cloth. A once pillar of weighty patriotism quickly becomes a weak and tattered, rag-tag mess of messianic democracy that demotes democratic principles to rhetorical and emblematic use only. Political candor has now been beguiled and browbeaten away from the bully pulpit of civic leaders.

What we don’t know – specifically the truth – may indeed hurt us, mortally and spiritually as a nation. Not only have we become a nation of liars, but we have become a complacent populace all too unwilling to challenge and champion for the truth, while we drown in a sea of hypocrisy and lies. When treachery and deceit are now the norm, it would rightly appear that, “In an age of universal deceit, telling the truth is [truly] a revolutionary act”.
