From today’s Boston Globe comes more information about the great exaggerator: Hillary Zelig Clinton and her non-pivotal role in the creation of the SCHIP program for children’s health insurance. "Clinton Role in Health Program Disputed" (http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2008/03/14/clinton_role_in_health_program_disputed/)

In refusing to reject water boarding George W. Bush links the United States of America with a long history of hundreds of years of torture.  Water boarding links the Spanish conquerors of the Americas to the world's leading democracy.

Hillary Clinton ‘s vote to enable George Bush to go to war in Iraq has gotten lots of attentions, but her explanations after the fact create a major credibility problem for her.  We’ve heard a lot about vote authorizing war, but her explanations of a now-forgotten alternative to war are just as troubling.

With apologies to David Letterman:

There's fascinating and vital information on the shortcomings of the Obama campaign in Massachusetts Latino communities in an article in today's Boston Globe.  See: http://www.boston.com/...

In 2004 we (Democrats) nominated a Senator who cast a vote that allowed George W. Bush to go to war. We lost the election, and yet now we seem poised to do the same thing again.  Former Senator Lincoln Chafee's new account of the events leading up to the Iraq war demonstrates the perils of relying on the Senators who enabled the war.

Let’s not exaggerate the Clinton legacy as an excuse to hyperventilate in real or mock (strategic) outrage at Obama’s recent comments on Reagan.

A shocking ballot initiative in Massachusetts shows both the contuining Reagan legacy in shaping politics and the failure of the Clinton era to bring an end to the Reagn anti-government narrative.
