"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process." -- Nancy Pelosi, December 16, 1998

 Mau-Mauing the Clintons
By Bob WeirGiven the past record of political campaigns run by the Clintons, it was bound to happen. The very same couple who coined the phrase, "the politics of personal destruction," who were most skilled at engaging in it, are now being accused of racism.

By Bob WeirGiven the past record of political campaigns run by the Clintons, it was bound to happen. The very same couple who coined the phrase, "the politics of personal destruction," who were most skilled at engaging in it, are now being accused of racism.Never before have they been in the type of political life and death struggle they now face against Senator Barack Obama. Every bit the liberal that Senator Clinton is, Obama is much more likable and has a lot less baggage than the former First Lady. In addition, his gift of oratory is being compared to JFK and MLK. The Illinois Senator has captured the imagination of many young voters, plus a sizable chunk of Independents and longtime Democrats. With Hillary Clinton's aura of inevitability melting faster than snow on a Texas driveway, is the once-dynamic duo prepared to break out racist innuendo to stop the African-American juggernaut who stands in the way of their return engagement on Pennsylvania Avenue? Although this might be a good opportunity to pile onto the criticism being leveled at the New York Senator, I would be disingenuous if I did so without good cause. As much as I think Ms. Clinton would be a disaster as a president, I don't think it's fair to label her, or her husband as racists based on some poorly chosen comments lately. When Mr. Clinton said that Obama's candidacy is a "fairy tale," some blacks were upset, ostensibly because it appeared that he was saying the idea of a black president was a fairy tale. There's more than a little irony in seeing Bill Clinton, once affectionately referred to by African-Americans as "the first black president," rushing to Al Sharpton's radio show to do damage control about his perceived anti-black comment.
