"Saddam s existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before, both against Iraq s enemies and against his own people. He is working to develop delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could bring these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the Middle East." -- John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002

Race took center stage in the Democratic presidential campaign yesterday as Hillary Rodham Clinton accused Barack Obama of "deliberately distorting" her comments about Martin Luther King's impact on civil rights.One of Clinton's most prominent black supporters, meanwhile, made a thinly veiled suggestion about the Illinois senator's teenage drug use.Clinton drew fire from black leaders last week for saying before the New Hampshire primary that King's dream of racial equality was realized only when President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964.Speaking about the criticism, Clinton told NBC's "Meet the Press," "This is an unfortunate story line the Obama campaign has pushed very successfully. I don't think this campaign is about gender, and I sure hope it's not about race."As evidence that her remarks had been distorted, her aides pointed to an Obama campaign memo that compiled remarks by Clinton and some surrogates that appeared to be racially insensitive.After she appeared on "Meet the Press," Obama called her remarks "unfortunate" and accused her of rewriting history."I think what we saw this morning is why the American people are tired of Washington politicians and the games they play," he said during a conference call with reporters."Look, Senator Clinton made an unfortunate remark, an ill-advised remark, about Dr. King and Lyndon Johnson. I didn't make the statement. I haven't remarked on it, and she, I think, offended some folks who felt that it somehow diminished King's role in bringing about the Civil Rights Act," he said.
