Bad Moon Rising (Anyone care?)

CNN.COM gives a good over all review of the matter regarding Sen. Clinton and the word "assassination" so run over there and read their play by play. There is a few things a want to get off my mind about this sad event which mainstream media does not talk about and because "I see a bad moon rising."

A.The Kennedy family sent a press release explaining that they take Hillary Clinton at her word on the matter of using the word "assassination."

B. On 5/23/2008 a statement from the Argus Leader is released. Executive Editor Randell Beck of the The Argus Leader’s issued the following statement today: "The context of the question and answer with Sen. Clinton was whether her continued candidacy jeopardized party unity this close to the Democratic convention. Her reference to Mr. Kennedy's assassination appeared to focus on the timeline of his primary candidacy and not the assassination itself."

C. Before the Editor of the Argus Leader or the Kennedy Family could respond, the Obama campaign was accusing Sen. Clinton of bringing into an election things that "have no place" in a party nomination process. This is a good example of the swift boating that the Obama campaign has run against Hillary Clinton. Before Sen. Obama had his facts correct he sent out his troops to attack an honorable party member and for no reason. So far the Obama campaign offers no apology for being trigger happy.

D. Roland Martin said on CNN that to bring up the word assassination was irresponsible because of the fact this election was "historical" because Sen. Obama was African-American. It did not matter to Roland Martin that this election also has a woman running that also makes this election historical. What is really disgusting is that to Roland Martin it matters little that Sen. Clinton could be assassinated or Sen. McCain. Roland Martin was just concerned with Sen. Obama and not with the fact that the Kennedy Family and the editor of the Argus Leader had already pointed out that people were misreading what Sen. Clinton had said.

Hillary Clinton is being accused of hoping or even secretly wanting Sen. Obama to be assassinated. According to some journalist, interviewed today on CNN around 3 pm PT, because Hillary Clinton wants to win the nomination she obviously hopes Sen. Obama is assassinated. The Argus Leader and the Kennedy family have already said that the context in which the Obama campaign read and understood Sen. Clintons remarks is unreasonable. In fact the Kennedy family agreed with the the editor of the Argu Leader.

The Obama campaign should remmember something very important: Whether or not CNN or FOX NEWS agree with supporters of Sen. Clinton, that the media failed to hold accountable the vapid sexism aimed a Sen. Clinton this nomination process, tearing at her character only digs the divide deeper and wider between the two camps.

While the real issue is a lack of creativeness in the approach to solving international problems that Sen. Obama, Clinton and McCain are spitting around these days Sen. Obama decides to attact the Character of his apponent. Also, why does Sen. Obama get to flip flop on the issue of using "preconditions" and meeting with rogue Foreign leaders?"
