all along the watchtower

steveaudio is a big fan of amb. joe wilson. but he doesn't enjoy the ambassador's latest tome at huffpo. steve writes:

ambassador wilson, i have great respect for you, and your hair. and what was done to your wife was wrong. you have many friends in the bloggersphere, but tonight, you have one less, because of this from huffpost:

…senator obama is clearly a gifted politician and orator. i disagree profoundly with his transparently political efforts to turn george bush's war into hillary clinton's responsibility. i was present in that debate, in washington, from beginning to end, and obama was nowhere to be seen. his current campaign aides in foreign policy, tony lake and susan rice, were also in washington, but they chose to remain silent during that debate, when it mattered.

claims of superior intuitive judgment by his campaign and by him are self-evidently disingenuous, especially in light of disclosures about his long associations with the rev. jeremiah wright and tony rezko. but his assertions of advanced judgment are also ludicrous when the question of what obama has accomplished in his four years in the senate is considered.

joe, you've jumped the shark. time to pack the show up, and start a second career in directing, because this writing won't sell. i won't even bother with the wright & rezko cheap shots; you should be ashamed. i'm glad you passionately support sen. clinton, but her past is filled with shady characters whose misdeeds shouldn't be used to attack her. comes to mind james blair and robert l. "red" bone:

…the computerized records of her trades, which the white house obtained from the chicago mercantile exchange, show for the first time how she was able to turn her initial investment into $6,300 overnight. in about 10 months of trading, she made nearly $100,000, relying heavily on advice from her friend james b. blair, an experienced futures trader.

. . . a close examination of her individual trades underscores blair's pivotal role. it also shows that robert l. "red" bone, who ran the springdale, ark., office of ray e. friedman and co. (refco), allowed clinton to initiate and maintain many trading positions – besides the first – when she did not have enough money in her account to cover them.

innuendo? yes. criminal acts? who knows. let he who has not sinned sail down the whitewater rapids.

Steveaud is wrong, but what do I know? I'm just a "typical white person"...I must not be in the cool crowd that the negroes love.

Nope.

I'm, um, amused that a guy trying to call reverse racism used the word "negroes". Even if that was intentional, it was still ridiculous.

Obama opposed it from the beginning and we have video to prove it. Wilson is either being dishonest, or simply ignorant.
