The discussion centers around the speculation regarding Hillary Clinton's potential candidacy for the 2004 presidential election, sparked by a claim about her name appearing on a government website. The reliability of this information is questioned, with participants expressing skepticism about its authenticity and the implications of such a candidacy. Concerns are raised about political hypocrisy, particularly regarding the perceived double standards in how lies are treated depending on the political affiliation of the person involved. The conversation also touches on the media's role in shaping public perception of candidates, with some arguing that the focus on high-profile figures like Clinton detracts from coverage of other Democratic candidates. Participants debate the responsibilities of the media versus the candidates themselves in informing the public about political issues and candidates' positions. Overall, the thread reflects a mix of frustration with political dishonesty, media coverage, and the dynamics of electoral politics.

What does the post count have to do with anything? Also, will others please note for the record the vindictive tone on the previous post? And the bloated egotism that is characteristic of malignant narcissicism? I can change the topic midthread if I want, it is my thread.

Speaking of which, to get completely back on topic(And I apologise for the hijack...mea culpa), I find that the media fixation on Hillary is due to her 'brand-name' status, and it is a detriment to the overall political coverage to waste limited air and print time on non-news.

Who are you apologizing to? This is my thread and I took it off topic, why would you say "mea culpa" since I was the one who caused this digression and would have liked to hear some input on that (Ex.: LOL!). Surely you must understand that my comments have to have been tongue-in-cheek, considering that I've agknowledged many times that I really don't know you and considering the many humorous (or I though so) remarks I've made previously (Ex.:Kerry's face is sliding of his head, that one just cracks me up!). Obviously they weren't nice, but for all you know I'm the insane one, in which case it would be prudent to ignore me all together rather than deleting everything.

Insanity is no excuse...can we PLEASE get back on the topic here?!?

I thought we had beat it to death already, since for a while there was no mention of Mrs. Clinton at all. I started this thread as kind of like those threads Ivan Seeking posts, where there are few replies and it kinda just is. Then again Ivan has links to actual sources of information, whereas all I had was a 'I heard it from some guy...' type of source.
PS:I don't think I'm insane, I was just making a valid point that you guys really can't tell what I'm thinking for sure.
