Chelsea stumping for Hillary stomps question about Monica
Last year, Chelsea Clinton took a leave of absence from her high-paying job on Wall St. to stump on college campuses for her Mummy’s campaign.

With Hillary, the truth depends on catching her in a lie
Everybody in politics lies, but they [the Clintons] do it with such ease, it’s troubling….

Media turn on Obama by scapegoating his pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright (updated)
Hillary Clinton has played every race card in the deck in a futile effort to derail Barack Obama’s audacious candidacy.
