Subject: RE: BS: Geraldine Ferraro on Racism
Now, which is the more important issue facing Americans, the war in Iraq, or what dumb ass Ferraro thinks about ANYTHING?

You see, THAT is what I'm talking about here. That people here have their heads up their asses arguing over minutiae over the horse race, while ignoring the most important issues of the day.

Like the fact that both Cheney and McCain went to Iraq on the 5th anniversary of the war to declare "success" and a continuation of the Bush Doctrine in Iraq.

Today, though the press is largely ignorning Clinton, who was back on the campaign trail, selling herself as the only candidate with a concrete plan for getting troops out. From msnbc.com"

"On the policy front, the senator's speech was largely a repetition of her previously announced plans for handling Iraq, although she included more details than in most speeches.

Clinton said she would have her advisers draw up a plan to begin withdrawing troops within 60 days of taking office. She noted she had co-sponsored legislation to end the practice of using private military contractors in Iraq and had proposed a measure to put an end to no-bid contracts. She said Obama had not ruled out the continuing use of private contractors and noted that she had not been able to get McCain's support on the bill to halt no-bid contracts, even though such deals were ten times more costly than earmarks."
