Obama and Experience...or Lack Thereof
Let me be, perhaps, the first to predict that in a year when President Obama kicks off his reelection campaign, the experience that he said didn't matter two years ago, will be his main argument for reelection. The experience that didn’t matter for John McCain will be the salient reason for reelection of our president.
Funny how a thing like that works. You don’t have to have any experience to set on the president’s cabinet, to be a Supreme Court Justice or even to be President of the most powerful nation on the planet.
You don’t have to have ever had a real job. You don’t have to have ever have hired or fired anyone. You don’t have to have ever had to have met a payroll. You don’t have to have ever have had any accomplishments whatsoever! You don’t have to have ever done anything more than get yourself elected to a couple of political offices. Still, none of that matters if you talk glibly about “hope and change.” Sheesh!
It reminds me of the ‘92 campaign, when military service and/or draft dodging didn’t matter because Bill Clinton was a Democrat. Yet, in 2000, when questions were raised about George Bush’s honorable service, suddenly it did matter since he is a Republican. Well, when the campaign commercials begin next year that talk about the “steady, experienced, proven leadership of Barack Obama,” that explosion you hear is not the balloon going up…it’s my head!

Hillary Lied!
Hillary Lied! People Died!
She said there were WMD's! She voted to go to war! She said Sadaam Hussein was a threat to our national security!
Now she says none of that is true. She says it's not her fault. She wants to blame George Bush for it all. She wants to blame the Republicans! She wants to blame Donald Rumsfeld! She wants to blame anybody but herself.
Oh, no! She lied! She should've known better. She can't pass the buck.
She says Bush lied, but doesn't that mean that she lied too? He says that he was misinformed, but she says she was misinformed. She says that means he's a liar. Doesn't that make her a liar too?
Yeah, no doubt about it. Hillary Lied! People Died!
