Hillary packs up her pantsuits, goes home, pouts over Palin **UPDATED**

UPDATE: showing just how cowardly they are, the organizers of the anti-Ahmedinejad rally have bowed to pressure from democratic hacks and rescinded their offer to have Sarah Palin speak at the event (via FOX News):
Sarah Palin has been disinvited from a rally next week to protest Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, an event that Hillary Clinton pulled out of just a day earlier so as not to be seen alongside the Republican vice presidential candidate.

Organizers said they aren’t being partisan. They decided to bar all elected and federal officials from the rally on Monday in fear of a “media feeding frenzy.” The rally was specifically intended to protest Ahmadinejad’s presence at the United Nations.

“In order to keep the focus on Iranian threats and to ensure that this critical message not be obscured, the organizers of the rally have decided not to have any American political personalities appear,” the National Coalition to Stop Iran Now said in a statement Thursday.

So, let me get this straight--they are trying to appear strong against a madman with nukes and an itchy trigger finger. But they can't even stand up to a Feminazi in a pantsuit? Oh yeah, I'll bet Ahmedinejad is just shaking in his boots.

Showing just how vain, shallow, arrogant, and narcissistic she is, Hillary Clinton, who was scheduled to appear at an anti-Ahmadeanijad demonstration, showed her (im)maturity level when she was informed that Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin had been added to the docket. The Pantsuit promptly huffed, puffed, held her breath until she turned blue--and when she saw that no one cared, she packed up and went home (via Al-Reuters):

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton canceled her appearance at a demonstration against the president of Iran after learning Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin will be there, a Clinton aide said on Wednesday.

A group of Jewish organizations had said both Palin and Clinton would speak at the protest near the United Nations on Monday against Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who has said Israel should be wiped off the map.

But Clinton adviser Philippe Reines said the New York senator would not be attending.

"(Palin's) attendance was news to us, and this was never billed to us as a partisan political event," he said in an e-mail.

[...]

Campaigners for Alaska Gov. Palin and Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain reacted swiftly to Clinton's decision.

"Governor Palin believes that the danger of a nuclear Iran is greater than party or politics," said Tracey Schmitt, a spokeswoman for the McCain-Palin campaign.


When I was a kid, we would have all said, "Pity party! 1...2...3...awwwwwwww!"

Well, let's all boo-hoo for Hillary because she would have had to share the stage with a woman who hasn't had to spend her whole life kissing up to liberal causes and riding on her husband's coattails to be successful in government, and who has more cojones that Her Hillaryness could ever dream of having--a woman who has stood up to the "Good Ol' Boy Network" and won.

So go home, Hillary. Have your little pity party. We'll be cryin' for ya.

Obama's contribution to aiding Katrina victims

In 2005, Illinois Senator Obama and his colleague in the Democratic Party, "Rosary Joe" Biden, pulled together to help bail people out the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

One problem.

They weren't helping the people in the Gulf Coast.

They were helping Alaska Senator Ted Stevens shoehorn his (in)famous "Bridge to Nowhere" through the Senate.

These two extremely liberal senators were aiding and abetting the pillaging of funds meant to help Gulf Coast victims of Katrina in order to send them 3000 miles away for a stupid bridge. They were too afraid to stand up to Stevens.

Meanwhile, also in Alaska, another powerful government figure (In fact, the governor, Frank Murkowski, a friend and ally of Senator Stevens) was throwing his influence around, only to be thwarted by a local housewife. Her name? Sarah Palin. Read more (From The American Spectator, via Neil at 4Simpsons):

Senator John McCain, a longtime opponent of Stevens and the Bridge to Nowhere, is not in the Senate the day Coburn brings up his amendment, but is well on record as opposing the Alaska bridge. His relationship with Stevens over the issue of earmarks has been explosive. Senators Obama and Biden vote for this Stevens earmark — against giving the Bridge to Nowhere money to the Katrina victims who need their bridge rebuilt.

Angered by what she calls the “lack of ethics” of a fellow Commission member, Palin resigns and files formal complaints against the GOP chair and Alaska’s GOP Attorney General. Both men are forced to resign, the party chairman paying a record $12,000 fine. Furious at the atmosphere of corruption, Palin turns her sights on the powerful Governor Murkowski, challenging him in a primary. She wins, and goes on to beat another Alaska insider, a Democratic former governor, to capture the governorship.

So, who is the real agent of "change?" Two liberals who are so far left they make Michael Dukakis look like Sean Hannity? Or the woman who says "Enough" and fights back by fighting against corruption?

Nbama 2008!
