On ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, the host asked Obama campaign chairperson David Axelrod whether the Obama campaign was stirring up the attacks on Hillary Clinton over her RFK remarks to the Sioux Falls Argus Leader. When Alexrod denied that the Obama campaign was engaged in such activity, Stephanopoulos reported that the Obama campaign had sent out an email on Saturday with Keith Olbermann's vitriolic Hillary-RFK Special Comment.
The Caucus - Politics - New York Times Blog has a transcript of the exchange:
Mr. Stephanopoulos: You say you're not trying to stir the issue up. But a member of your press staff yesterday was sending around to an entire press list -- I have the e-mail here -- Keith Olbermann's searing commentary against Hillary Clinton. So that is stirring this up, isn't it?"
Mr. Axelrod: "Well, Mr. Olbermann did his commentary and he had his opinion. But as far as we're concerned."
Mr. Stephanopoulos: "But your campaign was sending it around."
Mr. Axelrod: "As far as we're concerned, George, as far as we're concerned, this issue is done. It was an unfortunate statement, as we said, as she's acknowledged. She has apologized. The apology, you know, is accepted. Let's move forward."
Mr. Axelrod: "There's so many important things going on in this country right now, George, that people are interested in that we're not going to spend days dwelling on this."
We will post the video of the exchange later. In the meantime we are working on getting a copy of the email. If any of our readers were recipients of the Obama-Olbermann email please forward me a copy at "robert_a_cox" over at my yahoo account so we can publish it here.
What makes me very happy as a conservative about this latest gaffe by HRC is two-fold....
It irreparably damages the Clinton brand, making it nearly impossible for her to run for higher office...I doubt she would even be able to run for NY Governor.....Also, this will always be tied to how her campaign ended in 2008, again a big blemish on the Clinton Legacy and history.
Also, it makes it almost definite SNOBamessiah will not choose her for his running mate.....Obama/Clinton was the ticket that worried me the most because it would have been a combination of two large constituencies and the media would have been ga-ga over it....This scenario became less likely when she turned so negative against SNOBamessiah, yet there could have been healing between the two....Now that she has burned her bridges with the radical left and the RFK statement makes her untouchable, SNOBamessiah would be foolish to pick her. What was a 25% chance of a SNOBamessiah/HRC ticket is now a .01%....
I am happy to see the Clintons go down in flames....their legacy is pathetic especially with this and the lack of any true international accomplishments during his term will cause history to look at Bill Clinton as basically a seat warmer President.....As Iraq continues to make progress towards a permanant democratic, moderate nation, I am confident there will be no real objective comparison between Bush and Clinton....Bush would have achieved something great in the face of strident anti-American oppositon form the left....Also, if the good work continues, no terrorist attacks since 9/11/01 against our nation will also be remembered for what a President is supposed to do first....Bush protected us well. Bush took the risks to achieve great and honorable things for the people of the world....especially in Afghanistan and in Iraq....the long view is the honorable view...something the Clintons never grasped.
Unless SNOBamessiah becomes POTUS and reverses the gains we have in Iraq......then who knows if we will even have a nation to be a part of history anymore!
Funny Lord Obama claims He didn't think Hillary meant anything by those remarks and wasn't bothered by them..yet his people are still using them and the over-reaction by the MSM against Her..I never thought things would reach a point where I along with other Republicans/Conservatives would start to feel sorry for St.Hill.
On the other hand it is amusing to watch The Clinton's finally get a taste of the same medicine that was directed at their Opponents when the MSM was in love with Them..Karma is a B*tch ain't it? LOL!!!!
"Unless SNOBamessiah becomes POTUS and reverses the gains we have in Traq......then who knows if we will even have a nation to be part of anymore!"
Wow...you said it Cee!
Just imagine the horror of America no longer having an Arab country we can dominate anymore......SHRIEK!.....How will we live?

According to you and yours, the war is lost. Who's "dominating" anyone?
"According to you and yours, the war is lost."
You've never seen me discussing this war in terms of either 'winning' or 'losing'.
There's absolutely nothing to 'win' in Iraq .... but lots and lots of additional lives and borrowed treasure to lose.
So, you're going from defending harry reid's comments to disowning them?

Do me a favor. Tell that to a soldier returning from Iraq, ok? That comment is a disgrace!
"Do me a favor. Tell that to a soldier returning from Iraq? ok?.....In fact, the last soldier I talked to who had just returned from Iraq told me that. ok?"
"That comment is a disgrace!"......Why?
Think!!!!!
"So, you're going from defending harry reid's comments to disowning them?"
Before you can 'disown' anything, ,.... you have to 'own' it first.

Add this to the list of lies.
"add this to the list of lies."
Of course! If it doesn't fit into your narrow little worldview, it just HASTA be a lie!

Another lie to add to the list.
Nothing to win, mikeh? How about freedom for the Iraqi's, jerk.
