If you've been to court enough, as I have, you've sometimes heard the opposing lawyer object to a line of questioning because of attorney client privilege. On occasion that license is violated, revoked through your own attorney's examination.
The Clintons have not only opened the door for Obama to attack them, they've blasted the floodgates. Their double-teaming steam rolling tactics have been judged by fellow democratic constituents and elected officials as Barack's ticket to play by the same rules. But the Clinton bullies aren't used to being treated as they treat others. They seem to have forgotten that what was good for the elephants doesn't bode well for fellow donkeys.
The best cure for an old grudge is a bad memory
In a magnanimous swing of events in what's descended into a Clinton injected racist and sexist election, Senator Obama has decided to take the high road. Copying a pledge from the Clintons and their peons, Barrack has issued the following statement of subjects he will not be raising about the Clintons…until he feels the American people need another refresher. Below is his proclamation:
I, Barack Obama, have determined that history record I ran a good and fair campaign. I want the voters and my adversaries on the other side of the gender and racial Klan to know I have been just.
Since my opponents for the presidency, Bill and Hillary have raised issues over and over and over again regarding my past that they claim they will not hoist again, I feel I must reciprocate.
I will not be mentioning that Clinton friends like David Geffen remarked how proficient Bill and Hillary are as liars. Nor will I talk about Bill staining Monica's dress while having "sex" with her in the White House.
I will not converse about the relationship Bill and Hillary had with their own Attorney General, Janet Reno, and FBI head Louie Freeh. It should not be repeated that those two spent most of the Clinton Administration investigating their boss, his wife, and their friends. Please forget that Reno's appointee, Special Prosecutor Ken Starr, brought up enough evidence to impeach Bill. Seems appropriate to disregard that their time, effort and money might have been better used to find and eliminate terrorists.
I won't follow the Clintons and invoke race as an issue, even though one of Bill's early mentors was noted segregationist, Senator J. William Fulbright.
Please forget the many fundraising legality questions and conflicts of interest both Clintons have. They've raised millions from the Chinese, Saudis, Dubais, and Kazakhstanis, and Clinton acknowledged slumlord, the indicted Tony Rezko.
Of course it wouldn't be prudent to mention the scandals of the Clintons: Travelgate, Whitewater, Filegate, the Lincoln Bedroom fire sale, all the women that have alleged threats and harassment via the Clintons, including Gennifer Flowers, Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey, and Elizabeth Ward Gracen.
And please let's not reiterate Paula Jones's sexual harassment suit against Bill!
Vince Foster's suicide and office file cleanout, the excuse of polls to avoid killing bin Laden, Hillary's health care debacle, Kathleen Willey's assertion of sexual attack by Bill in the White House, and Hillary's inexplicable mastery of cattle futures should all fade from your memories.
I ask the electorate to forget that Bill and Hillary lied to the American people to cover their own rear ends, and had their vice president and cabinet fib for them as well. Please take no notice that Bill and Hillary lost the congress to the Republicans, and later Bill forfeited his law license when he admitted lying to a federal grand jury.
Please put behind you the Clinton criminal pardons, so many that I've linked them: http://www.usdoj.gov/opa/pardonchartlst.htm
Finally, remember to forget everything I've talked about here today. Just in case you even think of recalling, I'll republish this several times a week in the media and on my website.
Thanks in advance for your absentmindedness.
Barack
